It looks good, but idk i have this feeling that the choreography isn't going to be incredible. It's gonna be okay. But from the trailers, the choreography feels like it doesn't have the hong kong action choreography flavor but it's inspired by it. It's like a westernized choreography of martial arts. Hard to explain.

Worse are all the mirror matches, which... I'm not sure they're entirely escaping with this.

Why do you think Shang Chi is boring but Iron Fist is cool? I never watched Iron Fist but I heard the fights sucked. This has Hollywood level special effects. It's got mythical beings in it. It looks cooler.

Iron Fist choreography was so bad. Most of it were done on the day of shooting, and I believe one of the guys who worked on that show became the choreographer for Shang Chi.

I'm going to be disappointed if abomination is just in for the background fight

...but it'll also be weird if Shang Chi beats Abomination in a fight

Also hope the Mandarin doesn't get wasted as the MCU usually does with its baddies. Karli is still fresh

The show was bad, but Id take a hollywood adaptation of Iron Fist over this any day. As far as I know Shang doesnt really have powers, whereas Iron Fist can level rooms and shit with his glowy punch. Not to mention he literally has to fight a dragon to earn the fist. Plus he wears a cool bandana. So yeah, Id say Iron Fist is cooler than Shang Chi.

In this movie, yes. Theyre officially retconning the plot twist from Iron Man 3 (it was retconned a while ago, but theyre revisiting it).

Not really. The Netflix shows referenced the movies but the movies have yet to counter anything from the shows and likely never will until we get a Disney+ or theatrical Daredevil, Luke Cage, or Punisher (which I predict would be the first Netflix heroes brought back). So for now theyre either still canon or never were, but we dont have a definitive answer.

The best we have to go by is actors playing different roles in the movies vs the shows but honestly that doesnt mean much, considering theyve already done that a few times between just the movies alone.

He needs a big baddie to beat in order to have credibility. It's a thing they do often in WWE.

For sure. With all the powered individuals out there and shang chi known for "kung fu"

...but beating evil hulk without rings is a stretch too

It's not really retconned. The mandarin from IM3 is just fake / unlucky coincidence kinda like when Mysterio said they were in universe 616.

The Mysterio thing was nothing more than a easter egg. The end of Iron Man 3 is literally Aldrich Killian claiming that HE was the Mandarin. There being an actual Mandarin in China who is a criminal overlord is literally by definition a retcon. Theyre backtracking on a mistake that they made 8 years ago.

I'm saying it was a coincidence that Killian claimed to be the mandarin so all that stuff still happened but while it was happening, there was a real "mandarin" on the other side of the world not liking that someone was using his name.

The in-universe explanation is a coincidence, sure. That doesnt change the behind the scenes decision to revisit the character. Kevin Feige literally addressed it recently when he spoke about his regret with casting a white woman as the Ancient One, when he couldve used an asian actor without playing on racist tropes. Hes happy to get a re-do with the Mandarin.
