China May Shun Shang-Chi Over Star’s Comments

AlexGherzo | Sep 10, 2021 | 0

Shang-Chi’s ultimate defeat may come at the hands of the Chinese box office – or, in his case, lack thereof. Deadline reports that comments from Simu Liu, the star of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, made that are critical of the Chinese government have been making the rounds on Chines...

REVIEW: What If…? – Season 1, Episode 5 “What If… Zombies?!”

AlexGherzo | Sep 8, 2021 | 2

“What If… Zombies?!” is the one we knew was coming. Whether it’s “the one we’ve all been waiting for,” I’m not so sure – I don’t think What If…? had a lot of hype surrounding it in general, despite being better than at least the last two Disney+ Marvel shows. But an MCU zombie ...

I don’t want to jinx it (and Lord knows it’s never been easier to jinx a good thing), but I think Marvel’s new animated series may have found its groove. “What If… Doctor Strange Lost His Heart Instead of His Hands?” has much more in common with last week’s universe-altering hypothetic...

REVIEW: What If…? – Season 1, Episode 3 “What If… the World Lost Its Mightiest Heroes?”
