Mulan & Seven Samurai remakes

[thewayne]

Good and bad. I don't see any way they can improve on Seven Samurai, but the concept of Ziyi Zhang as Mulan with a script from the same writer as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon definitely appeals.

I feel very afraid about the idea of remaking the Seven Samurai. I would sadly expect them to turn it into an action-fest of sword fights and action...missing the heart of the story and characters.

The Mulan, on the other hand, could be quite interesting!
