>> I've never seen haka competitions. Something new to look forward to, yay! <<
I have only written a little of this, but I really enjoy it.
New Zealand has filmed many haka variations, from the traditional to the modern.
Here's a traditional one. It's a huge display of testosterone. See their fingertips shaking? That's what happens when you raise so much energy your body can't contain it, and it starts dripping off the edges. If they were soups, they'd be glowing.
This modern one is for a wedding, and it's all about social support. They stomp and yell about everything, even happy things. :D
Now imagine that with superpowers.
Also, my T-Maori would boo the house down watching a movie like Civil War. To them it's about as entertaining as watching toddlers have a mud fight. They're all about social ties and skill precision.
