A MOVIE REC

I'M WAY TOO HYPED BC I JUST WATCHED THIS IN THE CINEMA AND HOLY FUCK I LOVED IT

so
the new marvel movie

✨Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings✨

it's good

and ofc i have more reasons to recommend it to y'all

so
i don't wanna spoiler too much obviously so i'll just tell you what might interest you as my aro/ace audience

first off: there's no lovestory.
the main character is accompanied by his best friend, who is a girl and it would've been so easy to make it a lovestory but they didn't! (also she's really great, as is their friendship)

the only romantic thing you see is his parents' backstory and his mum's already dead so

then there's another thing: his sister. she's an absolute badass, i love her so much i-

she's great

and
she
has
a
black
ring
on
her
right
middle
finger
AAAAAAAAAAA - it's awesome

so i personally headcanon her as an ace lesbian

and lowkey ship her with his best friend bc i think it'd be sweet

and if that hasn't convinced you: there are also cool dragons

honestly, it's just such a good movie
so go see it if you can!
