What do you get out of making these false claims? For one, it doesn't matter if Disney was or wasn't advertising it. You made that claim on September 7th 2021, after the movie came out. The movie showed Shang-Chi having direct connections to other characters in the MCU. And by extension, you also made the claim well after the Shang-Chi comics were released. The comics also show direct connections to other Marvel characters. Also, Wong was literally in the trailers, so trying to claim that "Disney didn't advertise any of that beforehand" is false. --- https://i.imgtc.com/d9Fc4Qq.gif https://i.imgtc.com/BKHTxYq.gif https://i.imgtc.com/vYYIuDx.jpg <cite>CableZL posted [p:957823202] in kinda weir...

CableZL 09/07/21 3:43:20 PM #25:	I'm really not sure how you can watch Shang-Chi trailers and still come up with the assumption that the Shang-Chi story is a standalone story within the MCU. For one, all of the Marvel Studios MCU movies since Iron Man 1 are interconnected. The trailers show Wong and The Abomination. You would have to somehow assume they were just showing this as a random event in the movie that didn't connect to anything else at all for some weird reason. --- https://i.imgtc.com/d9Fc4Qq.gif https://i.imgtc.com/BKHTxYq.gif https://i.imgtc.com/vYYIuDx.jpg <cite>CableZL posted [p:957823483] in kinda weir...
