1. Xu Wenwu is the first owner of the Ten Rings. Despite the different powers that the rings granted him, why is he in search of the city of Ta Lo?

From Quiz Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Questions

Answer: Power

Over a millennium ago, Xu Wenwu found the ten rings, a powerful artifact which grants its owner power, immortality, and strength. He used these to build up an empire, topple regimes that he deemed unworthy, raise his own reputation, and train an army to do his bidding. Despite all of these gifts, Wenwu craves even more power. When he hears that the people of the city of Ta Lo have a gift that rivals his own, he decides to seek out the city to take its powers for himself. However, what he does find, at the entrance to the city, is love.

From Quiz Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

Answer: Ta Lo

The Legend of the Ten Rings always begins with a man, Xu Wenwu, who located the devices from a tomb or a crater and received the powers of a God. Though he could have used them for good, instead he used them to amass power. His army, which he named The Ten Rings, operated in the shadows for centuries, toppling governments and overthrowing the world from the darkness, changing the course of history. In 1996, Wenwu travelled to the city of Ta Lo, following a map in search of mythical creatures. What he found there, instead of a warm reception, was a woman by the name of Ying Li, who used her abilities to protect the forests. He wandered the woods to find her and they did fight, but the short battle ended with Ying Li the easy victor. The two, naturally, fell in love. Departing from Ta Lo together, they would go on to give birth to two children-- Shang-Chi and Xialing-- and Ying Li would tell her son the story of his father and the powers she received from the Great Protector in Ta Lo, powers she would relinquish when she left. If he ever feels lost, she told him, he would always have the pendant she gave him, and it would help him find his way home. In the present day, Shaun wakes to the sound of his alarm.

From Quiz Silver Linings Playbook

Answer: Reconcile with his estranged wife, Nikki

Pat had battled delusions, mood swings and "weird thinking brought on by severe stress" all of his life without realizing that he was afflicted with bipolar disorder. When he comes home early from work one day and catches his wife in the shower with a tenured History professor, he suffers a manic breakdown and attacks his wife's lover, almost killing him. As part of a plea bargain with the courts, Pat agrees to undergo an eight-month stay at a psychiatric facility. When his time is up, he moves into the attic of his parents' house, and is determined to win Nikki back, despite the fact that she has obtained a restraining order against him. He gets his mother to swing by the library on the way home so that he can read Nikki's entire English syllabus as an "act of love", and he plans to get in shape for Nikki and get his old job back. He also tells his parents and Tiffany that he and Nikki are still very much in love and that their marriage is going to be "amazing", and doesn't want to listen when his father tries to tell him that Nikki sold the house and isn't around anymore. Pat spends most of the movie in denial about the reality of his situation - that Nikki has moved on with her life, and that he should probably do the same.

The fish shop was the scene of several close calls for Linda and the fishmonger, almost being discovered by Nazi officers.

Michael Douglas' Ed Leland was brilliant, focused, secretive, and humorless, a far cry from his portrayal of the charismatic Andrew Shepherd ("The American President") and macho Jack Colton ("Romancing the Stone" and "Jewel of the Nile").
