This perfectly illustrates the problem with overly abbreviated communication. Yes, it may save time and keystrokes to say "Boring", but more accurately, what you meant to say was, "Personally I found this to be boring." This kind of amplification and expansion, while time consuming, also has the effect of removing the idiocy from what you said and replacing it with a measured and true statement of fact.
Yup. Love ILX most when it's a discussion board, not Comic Book Guy terse opinions.
This movie's a regular rewatch for me, and I still laugh/marvel at bits I've seen a dozen times before: Jack shooting the ceiling in the big fight and knocking himself out, lipsticked while facing Lo Pan, Egg at the opening when lightning travels around his hands, etc.
Re: the first comic trade, I liked it a lot, once I got used to the exaggerated art. BTiLC ending with the beast clinging to the truck always bothered me, preferring resolution, so it was nice to have that settled. There are 3-4 later trades listed on Amazon. I'll be buying those eventually.
Thought I found about the Funko Pop BTiLC figures here, but didn't run across a mention, rereading this thread. So FYI. There's a glow-in-the-dark Lo Pan that's not shown on that page, but might still be available elsewhere.

So happy to see him recognized. I'll have to check out that Everything Everywhere All at Once movie. I think the last thing I "saw" him in was Kung Fu Panda.

Love that he has a prominent and very memorable supporting part in a successful, buzzy film at this same moment. Dude is a living legend.

As soon as I heard his voice at the beginning of Everything Everywhere All at Once I knew it was him... he pops up in so much of the schlock that I enjoy watching. Look at his IMDB credits, dude has been in everything. Most underrated role: the Jeweler in Diablo III (a video game).
