[@potatoleviathan8147]

[@BlazingViolet92]

Honestly you wouldn't even necessarily need the toy leak to confirm the five fingers. Chinese dragons are depicted with 5 whereas Japanese dragons are depicted with 3.

[@HatakeMegumi]

That’s actually probably a representation of the relationship between China and Japan in pre-modern times rather than a cultural thing. Five fingered dragons are associated with the emperor of China. As a tributary state, you would never co-opt the imagery of the emperor of the state you (in name only/symbolically) are a subject of.

Funny when Matt is wrong but also right at the same time lol

[@whiterabbit47]

I can't possibly be the only one so nerdy, in the subjects of today's episode, that I already knew everything in this episode before watching it

[@whiterabbit47]

Also, Kung Fu Hustle is the best movie ever made, prove me wrong

[@mrworldwide5438]

Same my guy

[@foxinabox5103]

I love kung fu hustle! Its one of those movies that's able to nail that perfect combination of comedy and action.

[@randhirroopram9067]

Same, I also knew mostly everything in here. I was saying to myself doesn't everyone know this and then realized .. oh right im way too into comics

[@whiterabbit47]

@Epic Guy Why get a life when I can be rich, debt free, over-educated, and uninteresting in conversations

[@Ashnflash]

Ya it's crazy. LEGO revealed that Giantman was in Civil War before anything else. Wouldn't surprise me here if it happens again The second set also has Shang-Chi fleeing from the Ten Rings with one ring in hand 🤷‍♂️

[@rosteezek7668]

Well well well, looks who's here

[@DusTV]

Look guys! It's Ashnflash here!

[@writer5790]

They also revealed the entire plot of The Pirates of the Carribean on Stranger Tides, thanks to a mix up where the lego game came out 10 days before the movie.

[@aar0n835]

Hello there everyone Ashnflash is here..

[@joebiden123mail5]

lol

[@plutoburn]

Action intensive scenes are like special effects, they cost a lot of resources to do well, that's why action and special effect heavy stuff are rarely done well on TV.

[@Lhujke666]

I read a comic about fing fang foom once and it talked about how Mandarin basically controlled the Dragon with the rings (No not the bracelets of doom the actual rings) and he lost control when one of the rings was removed or something like that. Couldn't tell you if it's canon or not though. Just food for thought.

[@princeofstride5557]

The rings are big because they were meant for a hands of a literal dragon god. That’s so cool.

[@master0fthearts894]

That is cool

[@Retro_Red]

In the comics the Ten Rings powered the ship that Fin Fang Foom used to come to Earth so it makes sense that they would be dragon-alien sized.

[@SomeOne-iq7yv]

It doesn't. In the comics they were size- changing, hence why the Mandarin could wear them.

[@phoen-x326]

After watching the movie, I’ve realised he wasn’t too far off, but idk if the dragon is gonna keep appearing in the MCU sadly

[@tatewitzenburger6400]

I love how close he actually was like not 100% but so close

[@nienkemeijer1800]

oh god i remember playing fin fang foom in LEGO avengers a few years back and im so happy to finally see him on the big screen

[@kindabored2803]

OMG yes

Me too

THIS IS SURPRISINGLY ACCURATE GREAT JOB MATPAT KEEP UP THE GOOD THEORIES

[@wheybig2972]

Nice pretty accurate. Ten rings used to free and defeat giant kaiju. I forget but their might have been some sky beam during the fight.

[@samoelcerv4798]

Dr. Fu-Manchu every vilian: Just have to say I am a huge fan

[@KaraOni13]

Looks like Matpat hasnt been watching New Rockstars, i was expecting a theory on “How does Shang chi fit into the final battle in Ant Man Quantumania”

[@tcouncil1022]

Or they are working together to get this theory stuck in our heads

[@alis6581]

Or maybe they been having this theory working since the start and yak decided to not completely scrap it

[@inactivesky2091]

Imma call this one half right after watching the movie

[@jacque0805]

Well 😳 we all came back to this, didn't we. Great prediction matpat, nearly spot on.

[@canary0981]

If we're gonna have Fin Fang Foom and Monica Rambeau in-universe now, I can only hope we get Nextwave someday.

[@joelwhitford2757]

Mat if you listen to the song in the trailer one of the lines is "you woke up the dragon" further proving your theory

[@uknterror508]

pretty dang spot on

[@unbearable1286]

“Oh here we go again, Mat-Pat’s gone of the deep end again” then nearly completely gets it right

[@MainakRoyleomainakroy]

The Ten Rings' lore is actually related to dragons. They are said to be rings worn by fallen warriors of a dragon race called Makluans. Mandarin got hold of the rings from a crashed Makluan spaceship, where they were being used to power the spaceship. The Makluans are attributed to be the reason behind old England and Chinese legends about dragons. In the comics, if Mandarin uses the rings for extended periods of time, his arm becomes scaly and dragon-like.

[@jarmandog413]

The rings the mandarin wears have occasionally been called the makluan rings. As in the race that fin fang foom is a part of.

MattPatt:You probably haven't seen this short. Me who watched all the extras on every single movie: 👀

[@michaelwilson5114]

Lol - I'm not even THAT big of a fan of the MCU and I've seen it.

[@slowandnotfurious]

"A mandatory sky beam to mark the spot". That pretty much sums up most of the giant creature movies.

[@eaglescout1984]

Well, there was a dragon, but it definitely wasn't the bid baddie. In fact it was literally the yang to the big baddie's yin (yes, there was obvious references to that concept with the Great Protector in the way he appears just before the Dweller in Darkness and goes back to sleep after it's defeated). Also, the origin on the rings was kicked down the road, so we'll have to wait and see how MatPat did on that theory.

[@the_phillygamer]

Post Shang-Chi: I still think this theory holds up. Maybe the rings aren't the rings of a dragon, but actually for one of the Eternals monsters

[@JamesLawner]

I wonder if this movie will have an Iron Fist easter egg or post-credits scene where the sequel will be called, "Shang-Chi Vs. Iron Fist" or something.

[@spookcityghouls]

A lot of theories out there have it that there will be an Enter The Dragon style tournament in this movie, and that there's real potential that you'll either hear the names Danny or Iron Fist as a competitor.

[@JamesLawner]

@@Niop_Tres They could re-introduce Iron Fist into the MCU that isn't connected to the Netflix version. That's what I was referring to, sorry if it wasn't clear.

[@purple5823]

Shang Chi would easily beat him since he fights like a 5 year old

[@woolwarrior5455]

I really hope Shang Chi isn’t just another Iron Fist
