What happens

Mulan II is a 2004 American animated direct-to-video musical road adventure film produced by Disneytoon Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Home Entertainment under the Walt Disney Pictures banner. The film was directed by Darrell Rooney and Lynne Southerland (in her directorial debut) and produced by Jennifer Blohm, from a screenplay written by Michael Lucker, Chris Parker, and Roger S. H. Schulman, which was based on a story by Jenny Wingfield. It is the sequel to Walt Disney Feature Animation's 1998 animated feature film Mulan, featuring original songs that were written by composer Jeanine Tesori and lyricist Alexa Junge and a musical score composed and conducted by Joel McNeely. Much of the voice cast from the first film returned, excluding Eddie Murphy (Mushu), Miriam Margolyes (The Matchmaker), James Hong (Chi-Fu), Chris Sanders (Little Brother), and Matthew Wilder (Ling's singing voice). Murphy, Margolyes, and Sanders were replaced by Mark Moseley, April Winchell, and Frank Welker, respectively, while Gedde Watanabe does his own singing for the sequel. Mulan II features Mulan and her new fiancé, General Li Shang, on a special mission: escorting the Emperor's three daughters across the country to meet their soon-to-be fiancés. Meanwhile, Mushu attempts to break up their relationship to keep his pedestal. The film deals with arranged marriages, loyalty, relationships, making choices, trust, and finding true love. The film was released as a direct-to-video title in the United States on December 28, 2004, to negative reviews from critics. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
