Not crazy about the outfit in the image and of course the terrible MCU humor will rear its head but maybe there can be lots of @$$-kicking through most of the movie.

The 10 rings are bracelets? Mandarin is Shang Chi's father?

The theory about the rings being bracelets in this film may have something to do with where they came from...not going to spoil it for people here though.

As for the Mandarin being Shang-chi's father they decided to do away with Fu-Manchu, largely because that character has issues with why it was created, and just use Mandarin instead which should fit fine.

All the post Marvel movie era Marvel stuff is Meh.

This is no different. A good action flick maybe, but other than that, this could have potentially been a really good Iron Fist (with a different actor and a fresh start) or a Heroes for Hire with Luke (same actor) team up.

Not to mention Marvel doesn't have the rights to him, as it's the Sax Rohmer estate that has the trademark on the name.

I don't mind the Mandarin being Shang-Chi's father, I just want the fights to be awesome ... Bruce Lee awesome.
Call me old but I still remember the feeling when I first watched The Way of the Dragon movie, and I just couldn't stand still during the fight in the coliseum.
