Plot:

This allows some of the Dweller's soul eaters to escape, and the Ten Rings join forces with the villagers to fight them. - Why the Ten Rings joined forces with the villagers to fight the Dweller's soul eaters?

Comment: In order to jointly deal with the threat of the soul eaters, I did some CE around the area to provide what I believe was additional context. Feel free to ping me back if unresolved. -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:22, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cast:

Liu was knowledgeable in taekwondo, gymnastics, and Wing Chun, and learned and trained in tai chi, wushu, Muay Thai, silat, Krav Maga, jiu-jitsu, boxing, and street fighting for the film. - Excessive use of the word "and".

Done -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:22, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Development:

(...) and began looking at Asian and Asian-American filmmakers to potentially direct the film. The studios' goal was to explore Asian and Asian-American themes presented by Asian and Asian-American filmmakers,(...) Excessive use of the expression "Asian and Asian-American".

Fixed -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:22, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Choreography:

(...) rising and rising to almost ridiculous levels". - It doesn't look good.
- Fixed - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:00, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Visual effects:

40 to 50 of its 168 shots were mostly digital, with the environment requiring digital pieces for the bus, buildings, and people. - It doesn't look good starting a sentence with a number.

Done -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:22, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Theatrical:

in over 4,200 theaters, with 400 IMAX, over 850 in premium large format, 1,500 3D, and 275 in specialty D-Box, 4DX, and ScreenX. - I think the way it's written is strange (400 IMAX, 1500 3D, etc.).

Done -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:22, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Critical response:

decision to give the "second-tier" Shang-Chi the same "over-the-top treatment" as major Marvel heores had broadened Marvel Studios' - It's "heroes".
- Fixed - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:00, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Important topics:

Streaming viewership information should be in "Reception" section.
- Per MOS:FILM#Home media, that info should be in that section. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:00, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
WP:DUPLINK all over the article (mostly in "Accolades" section).
- I've removed the DUPLINKS as highlighted by the script. The repetition within the Accolades table is acceptable. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:00, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- @BigLordFlash: Hey there! I've also (hopefully) resolved some of the issues above. Let me know if there's any outstanding issues. :) -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:22, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'm going to pass this one. You really did a great job! Congratulations! :D BigLordFlash^talk 13:16, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
