Mulan
The Complete Script
Transcribed by Ash Ketchem.
***
A Chine painting of the Great Wall of China is slowly painted across the screen. The words Walt Disney Pictures prent and then Mulan and the dragon symbol appear. The painting becomes animated, and a Chine soldier walks around his post. Suddenly, a bird of prey hits the back of his head ...
Soldier:
Ah! [The hawk lets out a call. The soldier walks over to the edge of the wall. A hook comes flying up, followed by many more.]
Soldier:
[Running back to his post] We're under attack! Light the signal!
The door opens, revealing a couple of Huns. The soldier climbs up the ladder.
Soldier:
[lighting the signal with a torch, while staring at the Hun leader; other signals go on all the way along the Great Wall] Now all of China knows you're here.
Shan Yu:
[picking up a flag and toasting it in the signal fire] Perfect.
***
The Chine General and two soldiers walk into the Emperor's chamber and bow.
General:
Your Majesty, the Huns have crosd our Northern Border.
