Marvel: releases a new project Pitch Meetings: I am ... inevitable. Totally in awe of how RG has done the pitch meetings for so long without any dip in quality.
I'm going to start conversations with my friends as if we were in a movie: "Hi good to see you best friend I've known since highschool" and then turn at angle like there was a camera there
It's very hard to keep adding all these organizations since we're already 10 years in. They have to be a secret because then we ask 'yo where tf have they been all this time?'
Alpha Male is misogyny. /s So we make our heroes emacusculated dorks, that even being super powerful are not really attractive to women. Gotta be a special kind of loser to accomplish that.
I like Critical Drinker's explanation: she's gay and he's friend-zoned. Honestly, though, this wasn't the right movie for a buddy/buddy dynamic. Those movies tend to be light-hearted. Romantic leads are for serious dramas, which this movie should have been. It's clear Katy was just there for exposition.
"Oh, man - I love that we can retroactively make our unpopular decisions seem calculated and deliberate and important." - BEST REVIEW OF THIS MOVIE EVER!
"With the fan reaction to Iron Man 3's Mandarin, we need a new one." "We are planning to cast this Hong Kong actor called Tony Leung as the Mandarin." "Don't people speak Cantonese in Hong Kong?" "Oh, should we call him the Cantonese?" "Never mind, we can make a new name."
"So how many underground organizations that secretly control everything are there in the MCU at this point?" "Thousands." "Wow. Yeah. Maybe we should find a new thing?" "NO."
It's weird, because this organization doesn't *really* affect the plot at all. If his dad were just the leader of a minor group of assassins instead of a world-controlling one, nothing in the story would be affected. There's no questions about how he's using the power to control the world because he's not actually using it for anything at all.
You know you make a good point. I felt bad his sister didn't get to train with them being a girl. But I never stopped to consider how mentally and physically scarring Shang Chi’s training must have been. It does kinda make you question who had it harder in that sense.
Comments read like this is now a "who had it harder" contest. What's the prize for the winner? 20% off for the first ten therapy sessions? In a way, they are both going through the same abuse: their mother was murdered, the father who _should_ help them deal with the loss is instead using them to mute his own grief and guilt, which involves turning them both into what their mother would never have wanted them to be. Oh, and in both cases: shucks about your consent, kiddie. Because a frightened 8 year old nodding, after watching his father murder a dozen people, is *not* consent.
... He didn't set up Trevor to pretend to be him, he imprisoned him for it. The story went exactly like in Ironman 3, with the addition that 10 rings dude was the inspiration.
@@rtan451 I saw it again tonight and realized that too, but it’s actually the village fight has more sunlight while the fight by the gate is coated in fog and dust so it looks darker
I'm surprised you didn't mention my "favorite" part of the movie: when hideous soul-sucking demons start emerging through cracks in the portal, and four-thousand-year-old Xu uses the worldly savvy of his long, long life experience to conclude, "Yup. That's DEFINITELY the work of my dead wife, and not a ruse by some universe-destroying abomination."
I mean, I don't think it's that difficult, he didn't excuse her from the torture training because he worries about her, take the scene when they get capture and taken to the base, he says "my son has returned" even though both have been gone for at least half a decade, any kind of "kindness" from her father in her upbringing after the mom died was completely a coincidence
I watch very few of the movies they feature because they so accurately pull apart all the nonsensical elements you realise that you'd have wasted a bunch of time watching a load of junk.
“So he’s actually the real Mandarin and that Trevor Slattery guy from Iron Man 3, that was his doing”. Ummm… it was pretty clear in the movie that it wasn’t and he was rather pissed off about it.
I almost can’t enjoy a Marvel movie anymore since I discovered Screen Rant’s Pitch Meetings. I just laugh now during the movie every time they check another box on the “Marvel’s movie pitch list”. I can’t believe Ryan didn’t even mention the fight scene where the main character and the baddy have the same super powers during the main fight sequence.
I see comments like this all the time, and they're always depressing. Just because a Pitch Meeting exists for a movie, it doesn't make the movie bad. It's just goofing on movies. A PM could be created for the greatest movie of all time. (He's even got some for LotR) And then I'm conflicted over which one of these bothers me more: 1. You couldn't see through the transparency of Marvel films all on your own or 2. You enjoyed something right up until someone told you to stop enjoying that thing.
@@IRanOutOfPhrasesThen you didn't get my comment at all. Or read your own BS into it. I don't need anyone to tell me a movie is bad to know it's bad. What I meant was that now that we have the pitch meeting checklist, it just adds an additional layer that takes me out of the movie everytime a box gets checked and I laugh about it. It was more a comment on Ryans ability to dial in to the ridiculousness of Marvel.
THE CHECKLIST: 1. Messy cgi battle in the 3rd act 2. Secret evil organisation 3. colour coded energy blasts 4. cameo from other marvel movies 5. main character remove shirt to reveal 6 packs 6. tease with other marvel character
I'm late to the party, but I've been saving watching this Pitch Meeting until after I could see Shang-Chi. When they were escaping from the dungeons, I immediately knew that was going to be the "Super easy! Barely an inconvenience!" part.
Well, Strange was able to materialize and refill beer. Maybe they materialize their food? Makes me wonder where it comes from. Does beer & food start disappearing from grocery stores?
Writer: Hey we're finally bringing in Iron Man's arch-enemy! Executive: Well Tony Stark is dead, is that going to be a problem? Writer: Actually, it's going to be super easy! Barely an inconvenience!
Nailed it, and the checklist matched up so well with Black Panther (dragon scales = vibranium, Ta Lo = Wakanda, ambiguity regarding the main villains and if their actions were evil or misunderstood, messy 3rd act battle)
“Ohhh soul-sucking demons are tight” “Ehhh… no they’re not…” “You’re right, I don’t know what possessed me to say that” That. Is. So. Subtle. And. So. Freaking. Clever. Well done, Ryan! 👏🏼
@@OppositeofHATE7 Which is still very limiting to not have an actual teacher, especially when your trying to measure up to someone who will bloody his fists with that level of dedication but your training in secret so no one can see any injuries you get.
@@viperstriker4728 She claims she learned better. 1. We meet her much, much later. She has had years of real world training by then. Probably beginning against opponents who weren't expecting a runaway teen girl to be much of a threat. 2. She only dominates her brother because he refuses to fight her. And because she can never hurt him as much as he hurt her.
@@juststatedtheobvious9633 Good points, but extra training isn't shown. It is unlikely she could run a very large and successful business (which might require 70-80 hour work weeks) and get enough training to dominate the average ten rings grunt who presumable spent quite a bit of their day training. If we are being generous with our assumptions, I can certainly suspend my disbelieve here. But it would have been nice to get some dialogue showing what the writer intended as the explanation rather then just some vague "I taught myself better" which is clearly not the entire story.
Was waiting for the mocking of how Shang-Chi’s aunt seemed to know everything about Shang-Chi and Xaling’s life, from their adult clothes size to Xaling not being able to train with the Ten Rings organization and other tidbits.
Ryan’s criticism of the movie’s more over the top elements was spot on. That first bus fight scene was the best scene in the entire movie because of its choreography. The final fight was actually boring. I’ve never been one for the “all marvel movies are the same” criticism, but they do feel a little tedious sometimes
I feel like “Oh there’s the Marvel over the topness” is gonna be a new “Actually it’s super easy, barely an inconvenience” exclusive to Marvel projects.

"You're telling me the high-tech, modern assassin group that have honed their craft for literally thousands of years are going into a small village with the intention of levelling it to the ground with overwhelming force and firepower? Sounds like Ta Lo won't stand a chance." "Actually sir, it'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience." "What? Bullshit, why?" "Well, they're only taking like 6 vehicles-" "BMWs." "Right, BMWs, worth of men in, and they're all armed with crossbows that mildly stun and "swords" that mildly stun, that sort of thing." "The assassins, that KILL people for a living, only take less-than-lethal weaponry into a situation that their leader blatantly murdered men in a bar over." "Yep! He even gives them the command to "Burn it to the ground!" and they just start engaging in one-on-one combat to subdue the Ta Lo natives without injuring them." "Huh. But why would they do that?" "So the movie can happen!" "Ah." "Yeah, I needed the Ta Lo natives to survive so that they could use their dragonscale weaponry against the soul stealing demons later on." "But there's seriously not even a single grenade or firearm to be seen in their loadout?" "Sir, I'm gonna need you to get ALL the way off my back about what a sociopathic private assassin organization-for-hire would and would not bring into an active war zone with the highest possible personal stakes of its leader."

It was super difficult, a huge inconvenience - but I managed to avoid watching Ryan doing a Pitch Meeting for about two months so I could do exactly what I'm doing right now - binge watching Pitch Meetings! 😁
I legit keep forgetting that. I mean I realize it the moment I think about it. But he really does play it well to the point it's not just immediately obvious.
I genuinely had no idea what was happening with the big CGI battle. The sucker VS the dragon, which can magically create solid water spikes whilst the sucker is sucking and Shaun is spinning rings in it's stomach really fast until it explodes.
I really liked the ending fight. True it was mainly two huge monsters fighting but when Shang chi delivered the final blow and everything slowed down and the score started playing I remember I was sitting in awe in the theatre. It's fine if you like it tho I get the complaints.
Wow, wow, wow... this pitch writer is actually getting better over the years! The Shang-Chi movie is not half as bad as some of the others he came up with. Tight!
It was hard to tell what was happening, and also what the rules were. I like the kung-fu fights, because the rules are punch the guy, don't get lunched, and don't get hit with a sword arm.
@@RorikH wdym rules he just had to kill the monster with the rings i saw what was happening clearly and i though it was pretty hype for someone who doesn't see movies that often it was really good i guess for people like you who watch like 10 movies a year this might not be that good but i give it a 9
Couple of other "Oopsies" you could have used: City buses of that size have air-brakes specifically designed to clam tight at the first sign of a leak or break (bus should have stopped right away). Also, the fact that both bus drivers had power steering suggests neither of them ever tried to turn off the engine which would have resulted in engine braking to slow the bus down.
They've made a trillion dollars off the MCU by repeating themselves to a gullible audience that can't handle an intellectual challenge, so expecting Disney, which hasn't really done art since Fantasia, to change things up is... hopeless.
Can you blame them? Repeating a winning formula is tight! Also super easy, barely an inconvenience, so I'm gonna need you to get all the way off Marvel's back about it.
While technically it is unclear how Slattery can speak with the dijang, it's super easy to assume how. He's been Xu Wenwu's jester for ~11 years and the dijang could have been there for most or all of that time. That's plenty of time for an intelligent creature to teach Trevor its language
"So Shang-Chi is gonna see this beautiful inner spiritual dragon that's gonna help him accepting who he is Just kidding sir, it's a giant souless CGI Dragon! And there is an evil one too!"
What was your favorite scene from Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings?

Bus scene
The bus scene😂😂😂 baguette
The dragon scene
THE TEN BRACELETS 😂😂😂 I have NEVER questioned they were never worn as rings on fingers
AFAIK the official reason was, that they felt they would look too close like the infinity stones if they were rings instead of bracelets.
Why are there only 11 likes on this comment lol. Take a like :)
Bracelets are just rings worn on the wrist. Honestly a ring is just a ridged hoop.
I think it also was because some Chinese martial arts use bracelet/wrist rings as added weight while they train.

In a way, they are both going through the same abuse: their mother was murdered, the father who _should_ help them deal with the loss is instead using them to mute his own grief and guilt, which involves turning them both into what their mother would never have wanted them to be.
Oh, and in both cases: shucks about your consent, kiddie. Because a frightened 8 year old nodding, after watching his father murder a dozen people, is *not* consent.

I almost can’t enjoy a Marvel movie anymore since I discovered Screen Rant’s Pitch Meetings. I just laugh now during the movie every time they check another box on the “Marvel’s movie pitch list”. I can’t believe Ryan didn’t even mention the fight scene where the main character and the baddy have the same super powers during the main fight sequence.

And then I'm conflicted over which one of these bothers me more:
1. You couldn't see through the transparency of Marvel films all on your own
or
2. You enjoyed something right up until someone told you to stop enjoying that thing.
@@IRanOutOfPhrasesThen you didn't get my comment at all. Or read your own BS into it. I don't need anyone to tell me a movie is bad to know it's bad.

1. Messy cgi battle in the 3rd act
2. Secret evil organisation
3. colour coded energy blasts
4. cameo from other marvel movies
5. main character remove shirt to reveal 6 packs

She claims she learned better.
1. We meet her much, much later. She has had years of real world training by then. Probably beginning against opponents who weren't expecting a runaway teen girl to be much of a threat.
2. She only dominates her brother because he refuses to fight her. And because she can never hurt him as much as he hurt her.
@@juststatedtheobvious9633 Good points, but extra training isn't shown. It is unlikely she could run a very large and successful business (which might require 70-80 hour work weeks) and get enough training to dominate the average ten rings grunt who presumable spent quite a bit of their day training.
If we are being generous with our assumptions, I can certainly suspend my disbelieve here. But it would have been nice to get some dialogue showing what the writer intended as the explanation rather then just some vague "I taught myself better" which is clearly not the entire story.
Was waiting for the mocking of how Shang-Chi’s aunt seemed to know everything about Shang-Chi and Xaling’s life, from their adult clothes size to Xaling not being able to train with the Ten Rings organization and other tidbits.

Ryan’s criticism of the movie’s more over the top elements was spot on. That first bus fight scene was the best scene in the entire movie because of its choreography. The final fight was actually boring. I’ve never been one for the “all marvel movies are the same” criticism, but they do feel a little tedious sometimes
Apparently, one of the directors they considered for the Black Widow movie passed on it because Marvel insisted on designing the action scenes

Couple of other "Oopsies" you could have used: City buses of that size have air-brakes specifically designed to clam tight at the first sign of a leak or break (bus should have stopped right away). Also, the fact that both bus drivers had power steering suggests neither of them ever tried to turn off the engine which would have resulted in engine braking to slow the bus down.
The bus drivers paid for the full speedometers, they will use the full speedometers.
Doesn't busses also have handbrakes like cars do?

They've made a trillion dollars off the MCU by repeating themselves to a gullible audience that can't handle an intellectual challenge, so expecting Disney, which hasn't really done art since Fantasia, to change things up is... hopeless.
Almost choked on my Cheetos when he said that. What made it funny was the tone he used and the face he made. Comic genius.
Can you blame them? Repeating a winning formula is tight! Also super easy, barely an inconvenience, so I'm gonna need you to get all the way off Marvel's back about it.
While technically it is unclear how Slattery can speak with the dijang, it's super easy to assume how. He's been Xu Wenwu's jester for ~11 years and the dijang could have been there for most or all of that time. That's plenty of time for an intelligent creature to teach Trevor its language
Also the creature is somewhat magical so it could be that they developed a sort of telepathic bond.
