    Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is officially underway, and that means it’s time to introduce some new characters! Shang-Chi played by Simu Liu is the latest addition to the MCU and it’s therefore time for him to get the traditional superhero origin movie treatment!
    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings definitely raises some questions though. Like why did Shang-Chi’s father waste time sending assassins after them? Are those technically rings or bracelets? Why do best friends always insist on saying how long you’ve been friends? Why do they all get put in a cell that’s easy to escape from? How can Trevor Slattery communicate with Morris? Why are they in a BMW? What’s going on through all those VFX?
    To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

      So true. I feel like marvel movies sacrifice the special effects to make them look good, but just everything has to be desaturated. I mean just compare Holland’s suit to all the others…..also that shitty lookin airport scene in Civil War….everything’s just grey and bland

      In a way, they are both going through the same abuse: their mother was murdered, the father who _should_ help them deal with the loss is instead using them to mute his own grief and guilt, which involves turning them both into what their mother would never have wanted them to be.

      You realize that even in the real world some people are just bad for the sake of being bad. There’s not always some gray motive behind it.
      In the comics Doctor Doom doesn’t really have any nuance when it comes to motives, he’s bad because he wants power and he’s one of Marvel’s most popular villains of all time.
      At best people can say well he thinks his way of ruling is the only way to rule.
      I think Venom 2 will be refreshing because Carnage looks to be pure evil. Someone who just enjoys creating carnage, pun intended. Also just happens to be one of Marvel’s more popular villains, go figure.
      Same with Thanos in the comics, just not a good person.

      It's weird, because this organization doesn't *really* affect the plot at all. If his dad were just the leader of a minor group of assassins instead of a world-controlling one, nothing in the story would be affected. There's no questions about how he's using the power to control the world because he's not actually using it for anything at all.

    The whole "she was a girl so she didn't get to be tortured like the boys" reminded me of a fun story.
    My mom was born in the 50s, so she attended high-school in the early 70s. Apparently, in her school (which was in Brazil), high school boys were allowed to smoke during breaks, but the girls weren't. When I heard that, my reaction was kind of the same. "Hey, thats sexist, how come these underage girls didn't have the equal right to smoke...wait a minute. Is this...good? Bad? Hurray patriarchy?"
    Obviously the sane conclusion is that the fact that two problems can cohexist and even intersect without affecting the solution to either. Girls should be treated equally AND children shouldn't smoke. Just in case someone thought I was somehow advocating for the equal rights to get lung cancer at age 30.

      ​@Frumentarii I think you completely misunderstood the point. This was in th 70s, and being able to smoke was considered to be a right. The girls were the ones being discriminated against. The irony was that the discrimination would end up being, in a bizarre way, good for the discriminated. It wasn't, by the way, because anyone who has ever met a teenager knows this sort of rule would never work. The girls smoked anyway, and then just handed the cigarette to a boy when an adult was around.
      I will also remind you that a LOT of women are staying to fight in Ukraine, even elderly ones. Yes, the state's rule seems to be adhering to a relatively chauvinistic view that men are warriors whose role is to protect the frailer women, but clearly a large subsection of society disagrees. Also, I will assume that the "women and children first" was just used as an example and that you don't think children should fight. Hopefully.
