He don'took tough enough
And his voice don't sound like what I imagine Shang Chi to sound like
He sounds like he belongs in Hangober or some other comedy
Jackie Chan doesn't look or sound like a tough guy either and we all know he kicks ass. Matter of fact he kinda reminds me of Jackie.

Jackie Chan look tougher than the dude playing Shang Chi
And he could play tough if he wanted to do...he just made his bread playing comedic roles
This dude just looks regular...sounds regular
Non heroic

That's because you're used to Jackie and know what he's capable of after years of growing up with his films. If prime Jackie came on the scene today, he wouldn't be taken seriously based on his look alone.

Man fukk outta here:mjlol:
Yall making excuses
Jackie Chan always had charisma
This new dude ain't got shyt.
Shang Chi also wasn't an American raised Asian, so automatically he was going to embody the character more

I understand not wanting to put on an accent to be a stereotype, but at least look thr part and sound tough
This dude does neither...don't tell me why I think what I think

This is really a weird complaint. Dudes caring about how other dudes
look in the face to embody, toughness, being good at martial arts or an obvious bad ass. It's some wildly subjective shyt.



Simu is swoll and his martial arts choreography is convincing. That's all I need to believe he can kick ass not some look in his eye or whateverthefukk this thread is about.

I wouldn"t want problems with this dude due to his obvious fitness and strength not anything to do with his face.
