Saw it!!! Just got back
It’s awesome. The family history was rich. Several of the undercard fights like the bus and the scaffold were incredible, and the ending dragon battle ten rings exploding heart technique thing was just epic. Loved the beauty of the settings and the attachments to the larger world, especially why the Mandarin put his conquesting nature on hold in recent times for the woman he loved. Great stuff all around.

Whatever you think of the villains of the MCU... Tony Leung's Wenwu is top tier.

Fantastic film. Marvel Studios said, "maximum effort!" Superb action, epic fantasy and sweeping drama. Need a Wong/Abomination road trip film. Stat! Need more Death Dealer… like… right now. Disney must hold that L over too little Death Dealer. Disney nearly Disneyfied act three, but delivered on a great save. Wenwu is a completely new class of Marvel villain. Suck it, haters! Akwafina is sadly, still, not my cup of tea, but she is serviceable in the film. Four out of five exploding daggers!!! See my review on the Podcast of Champions for the complete low down on the film. This is what Iron Fist should have been! Nice one, Marvel.

What about the post credits? Are they actually both pretty important?

What about the post credits? Are they actually both pretty important? Yes, they both have larger implications for Shang-Chi and the MCU as a whole. Neither is a throwaway.

Is it true that Shang Chi steals quite a bit from Iron Fist? There are definitely aspects they take and tweak, though not so many that it would be weird to introduce Iron Fist later. At least, in my opinion. Also, I personally loved the credits scenes in this one. Some of the more promising in recent memory.

In my effort to support movie theaters, Marvel Studios and Shang Chi I decided to treat myself to a birthday 2nd viewing of Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings.
Seated now.

It's awesome! I can say 9/10 confidently. Definitely an upper tier mcu film without a doubt. First credit scene was interesting. Second, a little disappointed
WOW what a world though. Those mythical creatures. There couldve been a little less comedy but overall a highly satisfying film
Will voice some grievances later in the spoiler section but nothing too major. For example the Mandarin

So, the dreaded spoiler section.
The Mandarin-thought he was a bit of a lovesick puppy. For a man that has lived a thousand years (was it?), guy was strikingly dumb. Jesus sandles and business attire hmmm
Trevor and that creature-just why....wtf
Post credits-mandarin's daughter..go female power yay!....not even that..just the idea in itself didnt work for me..reminded me of Boba taking over too...
All I can think of for now

All I can think of for now I wasn't a fan of the Trevor and Creature scene too. It remined me of the Lost in Space Alien Monkey. I wouldn't be surprised if that was added so that Disney could sell toys of it.

All I can think of for now Trevor and the creature will get their own DisneyFlix show. Guaranteed.

So I wonder who or what the Rings signaled to in the first post credit scene? Also I was not expecting to see Bruce Banner in his human form, so that's cool. Any theories anyone? Kang would be too obvious right? Maybe something to do with the Deviants or a magical connection? Shuma Gorath?
