Can we be honest about Shang Chi?

[Gizmo_Duck]

MCU stans making the “you’re still watching” argument are missing that none of this shyt is rewatchable. They’ll get a big first week for a long time, but who’s rewatching Shang Chi multiple times? I can’t count how many time I’ve watched Iron Man, or Cap 2, Guardians, etc.

This is another thing peopel are missing. Even the Disney plus shows got no replayability, i haven’t watched any of them more than once.

You couldn’t pay me to watch widow, eternals, shang chi, etc. again

"Takes place in Queens" What are you talking about?

Shang (Shaun), Katy and their friends live in San Francisco which has a ton of Asians (and not a lot of Black people). I mean Queens itself has a ton of Asians too.

Anyways, I thought Shang-Chi was good. It was a cool martial arts influenced superhero film

Wow, I thought it was in Queens cuz my roommate pointed out an envelope that said "Euclid Ave." on it but I guess she missed the "San Francisco" part.

I honestly remember very little about the setting of the movie outside of the bus scene. I know if theres a city with a huge asian population its either 50/50 San Fran/Bay Area or queens

I've watched Eternals like 3-5 times. It's very interesting conceptually.
And I still watch all 2 times, once in theaters and once it hits streaming. Haven't gotten around to Thor 4 or BP 2 yet for my 2nd watch but I will.

Bro, the entire trolley scene flying down SF hills with the Pacific Ocean and Golden Gate bridge in the background. How'd you catch a detail like "Euclid Ave" and miss the entire fight scene's setting?

The movie is forgettable, thats what this thread is about. You could have told me it took place in cuba and I’d believe you

We got 1. Every other Mexican in the movie had a bit part. You ain't gotta lie homie.

nah hes right I dont know wtf was happening it was like that Gi Joe snake eyes movie made worse because of awkwafina

 

[Brandsdale]

i still think the martial arts in this film was the best marvel has done in regards to choreography

but the actual movie itself was pretty fukkin stupid

 

[Ghost Utmost]

3/5

Watch it one good time.

It was nothing special. Run of the mill superhero origin.

 

[feelosofer]

Just found the time to see this. It was a decent timewaster.
