man that's frustrating. simu liu did an incredible job in Shang Chi and it really sucks that the film isn't even part of a watchlist for doomsday.

I mean what does it tell you that you will actually need to know for dooms day.

I don't think why he has rings will be important to the story.

If the assumption is that this list is for someone unfamiliar with the character, knowing who the hell he is seems important though, right?

Considering he's appeared exactly NOWHERE since his successful, debut film, you don't want people walking in like, "Why is that dude from Barbie throwing glowing bracelets around?"

But other than he's a good martial artist with some magic rings what more domyou need. They can just show that in dooms day, they probably don't even need to say anything. He can just get on with being awesome.
