Eagles Classic Featured In New Marvel Movie Shang-Chi

You Have To Watch It

Marvel Studios’ new movie Shang-Chi and Legend of the Ten Rings broke box office records and received widespread acclaim. It made $90 million in the first four days after its release. And like every other film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this one has a pretty awesome soundtrack. While most of the songs were pop and hip-hop, classic rock also made an appearance and it’s plays quite a role in the movie. There are some spoilers up ahead in case you haven’t seen this yet.

The Eagles’ best known hit “Hotel California” was featured several times. First, Shang-Chi’s friend Katy, played by Awkwafina, said that she liked to belt out to “Hotel California” to confuse and distract people. Second, when the pair found themselves battling a bunch of bad guys, that’s exactly what Katy did – sing the song like it’s nobody’s business.

Lastly, the track once again appeared during the post-credits scene with the character Wong, who was first introduced as a sorcerer in Dr. Strange. Wong warned Shang-Chi and Katy to prepare for bigger threats ahead and advised them to take some rest. Instead of doing that, the trio ended up at a karaoke bar singing to – ehem – “Hotel California”.
