Episode 248: Shang-Chi – Past, Present & Future

Marvel’s latest entry, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, is here to introduce a new character into their universe. Which is not to say he does not have his own history and comic book expert, Erik Laws, joins Erik Childress for another adaptation breakdown. They discuss the problematic history of his primary antagonist, The Mandarin, and what changes have been made for modern audiences. They also certainly have a lot to say about the film itself, breaking through much of the hyperbole to discuss where the film disappoints and where it could go from here. This is a public episode.
