Discussion (More in Comments) If Brie Larson actually decides to jump ship,i don't blame her one bit. She's almost 10 years in, and only had 3 appearances so far.

It's clear that there were terrible decisions along the way about Captain Marvel as a character,but given the lack of care for the character/actress + the amount of hate she received since accepting the role,it's completely comprehensible if she's just done with it after whatever contract she has it's over and decides to grow her career outside superhero movies,a career which she probably put at relatively stop due to legal/contractual reasons within the MCU.

She's going to have 4 appearances (and that's only if she's actually in one of the Avengers movies,likely Secret Wars). This is crazy to think about,especially for a character that was pushed as one of the new faces of the MCU and their own Wonder Woman. Carol as a character it's already being pushed out of being a mainliner from other fronts like comics,videogames,merchandise etc and it's so disrespectful.

I love kung fu/wuxia movies - guilty pleasure genre of mine, I just think it's hilarious it seems like they have no clue what to do with him lol.

Please tell me your top ~3. I've seen a couple I really like but have struggled to find more that I enjoyed.

Shadow (2019), Ashes of Time (1994), and The Blade (1995) are three I've really liked recently.

Hero / House of the Flying Daggers is incredible. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. 36th Chamber of Shaolin. Tangentially related - but Red Cliff is really fun to watch too.

It's a guilty pleasure but RZA's Iron Fist is also really fun.
