Apologies for the incorrect spelling of Shang Chi in my previous post. Stupid auto correct/predictive spelling.
The fights look like it'll be interesting but tge film overall doesn't seem to be grabbing me. Maybe it'll change after a second trailer but for now I'm absolutely ambivalent towards this.
A lot of these characters have nothing to do with their comic counterparts anyway.
MCU Nakia, for example, is absolutely nothing like comic Nakia.
MCU Zuri couldn't be more different from comic Zuri.
And I mean... before the redid his comic origin... MCU Killmonger is thinly tied to the comic version. And the stuff that matched, was off screen (going to MIT, raised in the states). His outright hatred for T'challa for something T'challa had no hand in is about hte only thing they matched lol. Did comic Killmonger even want to be king in Panthers Rage? I don't remember that motivation off the top of my head.
Or even MCU Shuri before the redid stuff.
So I mean... for supporting characters anyway... ain't too much difference between using "comic characters" and just making OC.

I watched the Raid 2's kitchen fight scene for the first time in about 2 years and it just highlighted how T'Challa and Killmonger could have easily fought in the throne room or anywhere else for that matter and it could have easily worked so much better. Brilliant fight choreography that is a sheer test of wills, emotion and ideology where for T'Challa the gloves are off this time.
It was a mess in the theater. Not as bad at home. Still it was jarring base on the quality of the action we just saw in the waterfall scenes. However, it makes sense because as I've posted here before they really didnt have much time. Filmed stuff so quick for what they were trying to accomplish.
Sidenote: Check out this fight scene they cut out of the film. (Its a rehearsal)

Just check out that instagram post I just posted. THAT was incredible. However, they tried to CGI up everything and then chose a boring location to shoot it. Hard to accomplish what you want when you're rushing through a major scene like that.
Feige or someone needed to step in and say we dont have time to film in the mines (no matter how great the idea of it is). They should have fought on the cliff where Killmonger died.
No MCU film has had choreography anywhere near the Raid. Hell, barely any films have lol but definitely not the MCU.
It looked so much better at home to the point it doesn't bother me at all. So did the Nigeria scene. I wonder if they continued working on it or if it is just "home vs theater" type of thing.

They obviously cut it for time reasons, not because of CGI.
They needed a way to get around the suits, hence the Mine/Train.Feige or someone needed to step in and say we dont have time to film in the mines (no matter how great the idea of it is). They should have fought on the cliff where Killmonger died.
