    Liu hits back at the wave of criticism that’s been hurled at superhero movies. “It’s kind of fashionable now to hate on it,” he says. “I think there are valid critiques of the way that movies are made, the way that production budgets are handled, I think that there are a lot of valid things to say, but this idea of shitting on superhero movies as a genre, I don’t know. I don’t know I because I am speaking as somebody who just absolutely loved watching them as a kid.”

    This is why I’m a big Simu Liu fan.

    The movies are not shit because of what they stand for, they are shit because of bad writing, bad acting or shitty effects. I only saw Shang Chi and it is a case of the first. Good you had fun shooting it and feel free to own it, but they are still bad movies overall.

    The movies suck because they’re formulated as fuck and childish as hell. Marvel people are just new Disney adults
