Welcome back to Beyond the Elevator! Thank you for all of those who tuned in last week for our first episode! The support we received was very encouraging and we are excited for the future of this podcast. 

As a refresher, we structure our podcasts as:

Floor 1: Relevant movie news and updates

Floor 2: Movie review

Floor 3: General discussion on a topic

This week, we will be discussing recent movie delays due to the pandemic as well as new updates on the film festivals and movies that are streaming right now. For our review, we will be talking about the new Mulan live-action remake which will lead us into a discussion on "What makes a good live-action Disney movie?"

We are also very excited to have Ryan join us for the first time since we have started this podcast!

As we mention in the review, we want to recognize the current situation regarding the Uyghur population in China right now. The new Mulan film has come into controversy after it was reportedly filmed near these camps in China. We do not want to brush past this issue. We would like to provide some resources for you to become better aware of the situation help in any way you can.
