A Twitter user pointed this out and so I made an example video. Um. There is a weird musical connection between The First Soldier and Remake. I am not sure if this is coincidence or if they are trying to create a connection. Does anyone know where either theme originated?

Original or Remake pt. 2: Summary
The Stories we tackled were: The Lion King, The Jungle Book (2x), Peter Pan, and Mulan.
Thank you to everyone who voted in the polls, shared and liked the polls, and added their own personal accounts! Below is a bit more detailed de-brief (rambling) of the five polls.
We did expect that The Lion King was going to attract more attention than last time's polls. We did not expect for it to leave the Little Mermaid or Alice polls in the dust so quickly! Within 24 hours it was crushing the responses!
Then four days later we were far for expecting Mulan to crush The Lion King's records! In a single day, Mulan had practically caught up to Lion King's vote total from five days! And now she's got the record for votes in this series: 1418
These two also had a lot in common in the response distribution too! Lion King went pretty far without anyone picking "Mostly LA" or "Both." Mulan went half the week before anyone admitted to a preference to the live action, and even then it was only one (1) person by the end. (on a side note, there was a time when all five polls had at least one response at 0 votes.) It is very clear to say that the Animated Mulan is by far the favorite and the Live Action most disliked. We don't even have to consider the fact "did not like either" was the smallest % of all the series polls to date.
This should not surprise us. Mulan and Lilo and Stitch seem to be Tumblr's general Disney faves.
What is interesting about the Lion King is how many of you picked the Musical. It's the first time the Musical has been second! Granted it was only ~4%. but still! The last note on the Lion King: over the week, we watched as the percentage for "Animated!" slowly fall. It was high 90s the first couple days and hit 95% around mid-week but managed to say in the low 90% for the end of day 7.
As for the other three polls....Much more on par with the expectations all around.
We did anticipate having a third Jungle Book poll, where the two more popular movies went against each other. But we're scrapping that idea. Between CGI and Animated we know the winner, and honestly we expect pt. 1 would have been the hardest choice in the end.
And Yet; it was exciting to see "I did not like either" barely lose for the first time. One vote gave the plurality win in pt. 2 to the CGI Jungle Book.
As for Peter Pan: It was closest to fitting the expectations we had. It would slide very nicely in with most of the polls from last round. And we did plan for this comparison as the Fairies were gathering submissions on purpose.
Now for a quick numbers recap: all of 4 Animated won with a majority, and the CGI Jungle Book only with the plurality. The largest range in answers was Mulan, the smallest Jungle Book pt 2.
We have a handful of remaining polls to get through for a part 3. The plan is to have them while collecting the final responses for the Summer Superheroes tournament in about two weeks (June-ish).
