Filmed with IMAX camera; see it on an IMAX screen; skip 3D

Shang-Chi was filmed with IMAX cameras and it is well worth seeing in an IMAX theater! After seeing the dark images in a 3D show, IMAX is like night and day. WOW, really sharp images on a huge screen. I suspect this might be a contributing reason why the initial release was in theaters only. I liked this film and the bus scene is worth the price of admission.
Many multiplex theaters have scheduled multiple showings of Shang-Chi in 3D. I actually like 3D if it is done well. It is cool to bring a school-aged child and see them stick their hand out to try to touch a 3D image shooting out at the audience. But I disagree with the great 3D review this film got on a site that reviews 3D films. https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2573080/to-3d-or-not-to-3d-shang-chi-and-the-legend-of-the-ten-rings-simu-liu-MCU
They gave it 5 out of 5 in six categories and 4 out of 5 on Brightness. I saw it in Real3D: it was just way too dark and muddy, or 2 out of 5 on Brightness. There were too few instances of 3D images jumping out at the audience. Not worth the premium ticket price for 3D.

IMAX sounds great but I'll settle for my TV when it's on Disney Plus next week.

Yes, it is still in 440 theaters. Dune took all the IMAX screens, which is where Dune made most of its money. Dune then lost all of the IMAX screens to Eternals.

Oh nothing much just basically saying they are the first film to give Asians a voice. You know lets forget Lee, Jet, Yun-fat, and Jackie. Not to mention his past reddit posts.

That just makes him ignorant. Hopefully he now knows better.

Not a huge fan of movies in 3D and although Marvel films in IMAX is always great I'll just enjoy Shang Chi over on Disney+.
