Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings just came out to the theaters - It's the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first Asian lead superhero, and it's crushing it and breaking records at the box office! How does Shang-Chi tie in with the rest of the Avengers? Who is the Mandarin really? How is a headless mythical creature so cute even without a head? Will Americans, including Asian Americans, feel more comfortable with Chinese names after this movie? ie Shang-Chi will no longer have to go by Shawn. We imagine who would win in a battle between Shang-Chi and Black Panther pairs! In Pop Culture, we have the MTV VMA's and Met Gala.
