Spiraken Movie Review Ep 108: Aladdin & Mulan (or Tales From The East)

Let's get down to business and show you the world. In this episode of the Spiraken Movie review, Xan and Jacqie finish off the theme month of Family, Fantasy, and Fantastic Pixie Dust with not one but two great films from Walt Disney. Both of these movies have action, adventure, romance and an unlikely hero. The first is the great Chinese biography, Mulan directed by Barry Cook and starring Ming-Na Wen, Eddie Murphy, BD Wong, Miguel Ferrer, Harvey Fierstein, June Foray, George Takei & Pat Morita.

The other is a personal favorite of Xan's based on the famous Arabic folktale One Thousand and One Nights. So also enjoy as Jaxie and Xan review Disney's Aladdin, directed by Ron Clements and starring Scott Weinger, Robin Williams, Linda Larkin, Jonathan Freeman, Frank Welker, Gilbert Gottfried and Douglas Seale

 

 

There is discussion on the original source material of these films, the addictive nature of the songs and how much we miss Robin Williams. Xan also pimps out what panels he will be doing at Anime Boston.  Hope you enjoy
