Huh

2019-02-16 18:06:58 UTC  

When they were trying to take the focus off of the Xmen because they didn't have the movie rights

2019-02-16 18:07:07 UTC  

So much has happened since the 90s

2019-02-16 18:07:27 UTC  

It's ironic because these characters have been around since the 70s

2019-02-16 18:07:29 UTC  

Speaking of the movies how the fuck did Black Panther get a best picture nomination and not Logan

2019-02-16 18:07:35 UTC  

Some since the 50s

@mikeflarkin "A DIVERSE CAST! don't question it you bigot"

I think most of Hollywood who's not on the BP train agrees that it was a dumb political push

2019-02-16 18:08:59 UTC  

Sounds like a lot who are on the BP train also agree

2019-02-16 18:09:04 UTC  

Most of the black people I know even agree that while Kilmonger was a great villain and Wakanda was a great setting and the story was pretty good, the CGI at the end fell right apart

2019-02-16 18:09:07 UTC  

I mean I liked the movie, but it wasn't like mind blowing

2019-02-16 18:09:21 UTC  

I really did like every character in that movie

2019-02-16 18:09:29 UTC  

Shitty CGI bruhaha fight aside, it was pretty good

2019-02-16 18:09:40 UTC  

I think the best glo-up was M'Baku

2019-02-16 18:09:41 UTC  

Logan surprised the hell out of me with how good it was though, and the noir version is fucking beautiful

2019-02-16 18:09:47 UTC  

To me Wakanda was sickening, honestly. It is the Ayran Ethno-state in black face.

2019-02-16 18:09:53 UTC  

@King Canuck M'Baku was awesome lol

2019-02-16 18:09:57 UTC  

Here's the funny part

2019-02-16 18:10:02 UTC  

in the comic, He is

2019-02-16 18:10:03 UTC  

Man-Ape

Who killed and wears the skin of a sacred gorilla

2019-02-16 18:10:31 UTC

2019-02-16 18:10:44 UTC  

or "White Ape" as he sometimes in known. Freinemies of Black Panther

2019-02-16 18:10:56 UTC  

I did like how they handled him

2019-02-16 18:11:12 UTC  

Yeah, the dynamic between him and T'Challa was really well done

2019-02-16 18:11:37 UTC  

you can see the old design in him

2019-02-16 18:11:43 UTC  

But it's far less racist, and looks far more functional

2019-02-16 18:12:01 UTC  

And his personality as this brutal but honorable king of the mountains was played very well

2019-02-16 18:12:05 UTC  

They did a good job toning it down and bringing it to life for the movie

2019-02-16 18:12:11 UTC  

White supremacy

2019-02-16 18:12:16 UTC  

I like that they took some inspiration from Roman armor for his costume

2019-02-16 18:12:19 UTC  

I was worried about the "hooting at martin freeman" moment but it came off well

2019-02-16 18:12:43 UTC  

It came off less like dumb africans yelling and more like an actual thing this tribe does to shut up someone who's not allowed to speak

2019-02-16 18:12:58 UTC  

And plus it was funny

2019-02-16 18:12:59 UTC  

So are black people who don't like trash panther considered race traitors?

2019-02-16 18:13:10 UTC  

Not all of them but you do hear some of that

2019-02-16 18:13:17 UTC  

And are white people who don't like the movie... nazis?
