Marvel Studios’ Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings | Official Trailer
First, I would like to start off that I love martial arts movies, so this movie was awesome! I watched this movie with some friends after getting a rental DVD from Red Box at the local grocery store. We watched the movie straight on from beginning to end without getting up from our seats at home as we were glued to it. There are some movies that you can go take a break during a “slow-scene”, but this movie had action from beginning to the end- even to after the credits as most Marvel movies does.
While watching the movie , I was able to some-what relate to most of the background of the characters as an “Asian American”. As a second-generation Asian American, one kind of lives two lives (culturally) – One as an “American” growing -up in the United States and second as an “Asian” with holding on the “Asian culture” of your parent(s).
SPOILER ALERT!!!
Why I’m writing about this particular movie is because I thought the story of Xu Wenwu, the father was very relevant to life challenges overall (past, present, and future). A father that lost his wife and couldn’t live his “life” fully as he wasn’t able to handle his grief or “lost”. Unfortunately, his kids (son and daughter) had to “live” their lives “facing” their father’s grief and challenges. I love the scene when the son (Shang -Chi ) quoted (paraphrasing), “When you lost mom, you forgot we (him and his sister) were alive”. Stop living the past, and move on..”
This reminds me of my recent personal video reflection I recently made on..
Reflection on: Isaiah 43-“Forget the Past”
..which I included an excerpt of this movie at the time of the making.
So how do “we” move on from the “past” (e.g. hurts, mistakes, trauma, sins, etc..)? Do you have any personal suggestions or personal advice from your own life? If Xu had that “support” from others, you think he would’ve been able to handle his wife’s death a “little” easier or better?

SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME - Official Trailer (HD)
https://youtu.be/JfVOs4VSpmA
After watching Spiderman 3 or "SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME", I was thinking about the theme of "second chance". I was reminded of how we sometimes have a a "hatred" or "dislike" towards an individual, group, or anybody because of a past "indifference" (e.g. mistake, hurt, some type of "abuse", etc..). I've learned to "try" to understand some of the reasons what causes people(s) to do what they do. When you start learning their past that "created" their present behavior , you can have somewhat a more "compassion" for them. That's if you "try" to "understand their past".
Spoiler Alert
In the movie , Peter Parker was about to send these "villains" back home, but his "compassionate" mother challenged him to look at his own heart to decide not too. He wanted to "help" them before returning them back to their own world. However, we sometimes forget that "we" can't do it alone, which he would get some help from others.
Are there people around you that you want to "help"? Or are there some individual(s) you are "trying" to help, but not getting anywhere? I've learned from my past "mistakes" that I can't do it on my own, it's more like "we" need one another as a "team" (there is no "I" in team). This is why I love Spiderman and the whole "Marvel" comic characters or "superheroes", they "work together" (most of the times, which is why we need to "pray for unity" - see John 17). It also reminds me of one of the L.O.T.R (Lord of the Rings) movies -"Battle of the 5 Armies".
STOP reading if you haven't seen this movie yet as I'll be giving some scenes of the movie from here...
Well, Peter Parker begins to realize that he can't help these "villains" that were transported to their current world "after" his "wishful" magic that "no-one will remember him" (due to the "media" chaos off "false" news against him). His friends accidentally "transported" Peter Parker from the past (movies of Spider-man - ......

Spider-Man (2002)

SONY PICTURES
It's hard to believe it took until 2002 to get a modern, big-screen Spider-Man adaptation — and, even after remakes and reboots, this one still holds up. It features Tobey Maguire romancing Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane — the iconic upside-down kiss! — while facing off against Willem Dafoe as the Green Goblin. It's directed by Sam Raimi, who will return to the Marvel fold for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness....

Whether or not Maguire returns for No Way Home, one of his major foes definitely will: Fans flipped out after seeing images of Alfred Molina's Dr. Octopus in the trailer, and Molina has confirmed he'll be back. If you want to revisit the first time Doc Ock squared off against a Spidey, proceed directly to Spider-Man 2....

After it became clear that Raimi's vision for a Spider-Man 4 wouldn't come to fruition, we got our first reboot — this time directed by the appropriately named Marc Webb. It's a re-telling of Spidey's origin story, starring Andrew Garfield as the high-schooler-turned-webslinger and Emma Stone as his love interest, Gwen Stacy....

... And then this is the last Webb/Garfield Spider-Man movie. This version of Spidey didn't even make it to a trilogy. But this movie, like Spider-Man 3, has enough villains for a whole franchise, including the Rhino, yet another Green Goblin and Jaime Foxx really going for it as Electro.

For Completists: Captain America Civil War (2016)

MARVEL STUDIOS
No one can say Captain America: Civil War is Spider-Man's movie. He's definitely not even in the top three most important characters in the film. But this is Spider-Man's introduction into the proper MCU. (Fun fact: None of the pervious films were Marvel Studios — they all came from Sony, which is why they're not on Disney+. Spidey was only allowed back into the MCU due to a complicated rights agreement hammered out between Sony and Marvel.) You can see how Iron Man recruits Peter Parker to be one of the Avengers, so it's a good one to revisit.

MARVEL STUDIOS
Whereas Civil War gives us just a taste of Tom Holland's take Spider-Man, Jon Watts' Homecoming really lets him shine. While this movie thankfully skips the origin story, it's still filled with familiar Peter Parker troubles, namely balancing heroism and high school. Michael Keaton turns up as the villain Vulture, who may return in a future movie.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

SONY PICTURES
Peter Parker isn't the only Spider-Man in New York. And, if you count multiverses, there are even more, including Spider-Ham, Penny Parker, Spider Gwen, Spider Noir and Peter B. Parker. In this animated delight, Brooklyn teen Miles Morales teams up with all of these variants to help keep the universe intact and safe from the dreaded Kingpin. It doesn't link up with any of the other movies (at least until a sequel comes out next fall), but it might offer a clue about how comics handle multiple universes.

For Completists: Venom (2018)

SONY PICTURES
While Venom is a tried-and-true Spider-Man villain in the comics, Spider-Man isn't even mentioned in the movie Venom. But Tom Hardy plays the same character, Eddie Brock, that Topher Grace played in Spider-Man 3 — and they both are infected with a space symbiote that gives them powers — so it's a fun point of comparison for fans who truly want to see every riff on every Spider-Man character put to film.

Again, since there are so many Avengers vying for screen time, Infinity War and Endgame aren't Spider-Man's films. If you're looking for lots of Spidey time, you'll be disappointed. But he does get an important — and poignant — story arc in both, even if they mostly serve as motivation for Tony Stark. (Bonus: Both Infinity War and Endgame are streaming on Disney+.)...

After Endgame, Spidey gets the full limelight again. This time, he travels to Europe on a class field trip, where he encounters the villain Mysterio (played by Jake Gyllenhaal). After all of the interconnected MCU adventures, this one is pretty stand-alone, even if it does feature MCU faves like Nick Fury and Maria Hill...

Before Spider-Man returns for No Way Home, Venom gets another adventure in under his belt. In this one, Eddie Brock, who is learning to live with Venom inside him, tries to get his journalism career back on track by interviewing a serial killer. Little does Brock know that the killer has his own symbiote. Note: Watch until the end of the credits to see more Spider threads come together.

Every Live Action SPIDER-MAN Movie Recapped (Before ‘No Way Home’)
Well, Peter Parker from the past Spider-men come together to help Peter Parker "3" in this movie..the power of unity.
Before Peter Parker could defeat the "last" villain, he needed to learn about "forgiveness..
...which isn't that easy in "human standards". How can Peter Parker "forgive" someone that killed his mom. How can you forgive someone that did anything similar to a love one? Can you relate? Well, it isn't easy and this is where you need "help" from "someone else". Remember, when I shared it's teamwork? Well, what has helped me to forgive my enemies ("love your enemies" - quoted by the famous Rev. Martin Luther King , Jr.) is God (aka "Heavenly Father)
God's team consist of his followers (brothers and sister in Christ), who can pray for you. If you have a tough time to forgive someone(s). Consider asking others to pray for you! Feel free to ask them how prayer has changed them or what prayers God has answered them (power of prayer, especially where there are numbers of people - "where 2 or more gathered")
Lastly, the Marvel Movies show the many "powers" each super hero has. Well, don't you wish you had some of the powers? Well, you can ask God for this.. It's called "spiritual gifts"...
However, the most important of these is LOVE! This where "LOVE" can help forgive your "enemies" !
How can you love your "enemies"? Well, the first step is to LOVE the One ("Creator") that created them and you. God can "help" you do this by first by starting a "personal relationship" with him , which you can do this just by "asking" Him. Here is an example (prayer) way to do it..
