Makikisawsaw ba ang mga yellowtards? 😅

No. She was against using violence, not protesting.

Puro boycott. Powtah.

vocalvidzz yess BoycottMulan

No! The movie looks good!

Watch this

Stop lying! Show the world the brutality of the extremists! When HK police are using non-lethal weapon like tear gas baton and rubber bullet, they throw bricks, lime, corrosive liquid and metal bullet! As a common Hong Kong citizen, I urge HK police to bring justice to them!

boycottMulan hongkongprotest

boycottMulan

For sure. Shame on Disney

No.

Absolutely StandWithHK

boyscottmulan

Absolutely NOT!!!!

She should've just kept quiet. Everyone however should make a stand and suffer the consequences of that stand. If Disney chooses profitability over the values the movie has expressed, then Disney is now forever lost in corporate greed.

BoycottMulan of couz i aint watching a injustice dude who support HK police

I don't want to boycott anyone based on their opinion but seriously supporting brutality is nothing that can be tolerated because of my consciousness

no,she is cool.

100% yazzz BoycottMulan

double standard?its her freedom of speech,if u dont like it get over with it. I would not boycott anyone who support hk protest although i do think they are stupid

Yeah. Even before this shenanigans happened

NO!

I will watch it twice

Support Mulan!

Mulan was about fighting for equal rights. That a girl can choose her destiny. She supports HK government, so why boycotting her? She may have reasons, we just have to respect. In other words.. NONE OF OUR BUSINESS.

There’s a reason why she posted that

u mean the world do not need police?care for phi shooter.

disney might have coached her not to say anything that would anger the chinese market. losing the china market for this movie that was specifically made to target them would be a disaster for disney. having said that, count me in on the boycott.

I will not watch Mula. BoycottMulan

Who can stand watching a hypocrite for two hours?

Dunno man, this is a nuanced situation where the actress is Chinese and not from HK. From what I'm seeing of the situation, (and opinions from my own Chinese relatives) is that they think the protesters have gone too far. But if you view it from the HK side, it's different too.

I will absolutely BoycottMulan

Her views as an actress probably wouldn't be reflected in the movie.If the movie doesn't go all political, I might watch it.If it will go down that road, however(which is highly likely because China), then it's gonna be Disney's next Captain Marvel. Wouldn't wasye money on that.

BoycottMulanMeToo

Definitely!!!

Yes.

Ano yung Mulan? movie nina Piolo at Claudine?

Why bother?

She is HYPOCRITE and Duplicitous. A chinese who's enjoying democracy as an american yet support the hk police who suppresses people who wants the same democracy she somehow enjoys in the U.S..yucksss!!! count me in BoycottMulan

I do not think her ignorance as an actress truly reflect the Mulan’s intent as a movie.

YES IMMA CANCEL THAT BoycottMulan

I was boycotting it BEFORE it was cool. Y'all are posers!

I don't know. Would you? 🤔
