Disney + in December 2020, it is a 4-star menu that includes first-class dishes such as the last episodes of season 2 of The Mandalorian, the film adaptation of Mulan and Soul, Pixar's next masterpiece. And as an accompaniment, some documentaries and nice surprises. The end of the year is an institution at Disney. The big-eared studio has a habit of bringing out the heavy artillery with their latest animated production. In these times of health crisis, the American majors bet everything on their platforms. Warner Bros. will release its programming in theaters and on HBO Max in 2021. An announcement that can not seduce all the actors of the seventh art. We hope that Disney will make the right choices.
Mulan 2020: A successful adaptation for the cartoon?
The month of December begins strong with the arrival of the new film adapted from a classic of American animation. Mulan au cinéma is one of the most enjoyable news. However, when adapting a reference, you must be able to subtly adapt all the ingredients that made the charm of its animated iteration. We do not want to spoil the film, but you should know that the absence of the guardian Mushu and his sidekick is detrimental. The interest of the film lies above all in its grandiose landscapes and its Asian cast. We just regret that Donnie Yen (the unforgettable interpreter of ip Man) and Gong Li (awarded at festivals) are not better exploited.

Several short films are online like Mickey's Rival, How to Be a Good Swimmer… The mythical series dedicated to the X-Men is also in the game. Remember for those who do not know that Disney owns the rights to the catalog of Fox. A treat for comic book fans to see this pleasant version of mutants again. It is also a great opportunity to introduce it to their children. All 5 seasons of the X-Men are available. Cars 3 is also on the program. A successful conclusion where Flash Mcqueen will have to question everything. It's not the most popular franchise at Pixar, but this third volume has qualities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r4EbRl00tw&ab_channel=FilmsActu An unreleased film is also on the program, it is Godmother or almost. The kind of fairy tale that fans of beautiful stories will enjoy. It is also an opportunity to meet Isla Fisher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOEPtFoxHY4&ab_channel=WaltDisneyStudiosCanada
Programming Week of December 11 Disney +
A quieter week but still exciting. You can watch 2 series: Penny on Mars (season 3) and Gordon Ramsay: unexplored territories season 1. Two Disney Originals productions are also in the game. The new High School Musical franchise: The Musical: Christmas Special. Inevitably, an opus that adapts perfectly to the current period. To the test of a tribe is a dive into inhospitable lands. A full immersion in cultures far removed from what we are used to knowing. The main attraction will probably be Safety. Movies inspired by a true story, this is one of Disney's house recipes. We follow a young American football player who will make the decision to take care of his little brother when his mother is no longer able to do so. A daily struggle that will affect the most sensitive among us. The kind of positive story in this period, and we suspect that the moral will probably be to do everything to fight and keep your head high in the face of life's trials. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZibBh030t1g&ab_channel=AuCin%C3%A9

Disney+ subscribers in December 2020 will have the privilege of discovering Soul, Pixar's latest. We'll be completely honest with you. It is heartbreaking to discover such an animated film in our homes. To see a Pixar animated film is to confront the best of American animation. The studio has this ability to approach classic stories from new angles. Who hasn't vibrated in front of Ratatouille, Wall-E or Up There? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IZkCUGGhgY&ab_channel=DisneyFR We will have the opportunity to come back to the film soon. The rest of the program is diverse. Ferdinand who tells us the story of a bull like no other is a beautiful story that will delight young and old. And the documentary Born in China is one of such quality that it will grab you from the first minute to the last minute. Soul, the Mandalorian and Mulan in December 2020… A winning trio for Disney+.
