Movies are made to entertain us, to give us an escape for a couple of hours and get lost in another world. But what if you don't want the details? What if you want the movie stripped back to its bare bones, the entire plot summed up in just a couple of lines?

The wildly popular hashtag #explainafilmplotbadly is still going strong, giving us the essence of our favorite movies in bitesize captions, and highlighting how hilariously ridiculous some movie plots are from different perspectives and without context.

Yes, they are badly explained. And no, the producers of the movies probably do not appreciate the unflattering descriptions. But they are all very funny, and we just love them! Scroll down to check out the list, compiled by Bored Panda, for yourself, and don't forget to upvote your faves!

Even sadder is that in the original story that wasn't even enough to take her seriously as soon as they find out, and it all ends in tragedy.

That description sums up Mulan and all of womanhood in a single sentence.

Just curious, but are any of those pictures edited? (It might just be the version I watched, but she never had blood or scrapes like that on her face)

Her sick father was told he was needed in the army and she disguised herself as a man to replace him.

... and then proves that as a woman she is more powerful. There is a happier ending than this title leads on.

That's not what Mulan is about, just saying. Don't push "but muh feminist agenda" into everything.

Our culture? This was about the Chinese culture. I think it says something about the history of humans, and how we are changing our viewpoints. This is not a bad thing. This is a good thing.

Rip her. But keep in mind that the 2 genders have their own purposes and they shouldn’t try to mix those concepts

Both genders can do whatever they want to. The only gender roles that have to be followed would be that females give birth to children.
