I don't know why, but I think this movie is going to be a major disappointment; plot and acting wise that is.
nice troll.
The director's first two features have an average Rotten Tomatoes score of 94.5, have won numerous awards including the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, and landed a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nom.Oddity said:I've seen the trailers. Honestly, meh. I plan on watching it. But, I just have this strange feeling that the movie is more style than substance.SeattleAgJr said:Given your other posts....Oddity said:

it's not get out they are trying to replicate at least not entirely. It's wonder womanBrian Earl Spilner said:
I'll be honest, this really does feel like the media and/or studio is trying really hard to push this as some sort of black "breakthrough" movie, or whatever, and it just seems like they're trying way too hard. That Kendrick Lamar tweet about the album, Octavia Spencer renting out a whole theater, that kind of thing.
It almost feels like they want to replicate or capitalize on what Get Out did last year, except that happened organically, and this feels manufactured.
I don't know, it just feels a bit cheap to me. I realize I'll get blasted for saying it, but that's kind of where I am right now.
Get Out was also very specifically about race and tackled it in an incredibly novel and shocking way.Saxsoon said:it's not get out they are trying to replicate at least not entirely. It's wonder womanBrian Earl Spilner said:

Much like Wonder Woman, they will benefit from an audience that, otherwise, wouldn't be interested in a superhero movie. I'ts already outpaced all other superhero movies in Fandango pre-sales. If it has the staying power/draw of Wonder Woman, I see Black Panther blowing away all "expectations."fig96 said:Get Out was also very specifically about race and tackled it in an incredibly novel and shocking way.Saxsoon said:it's not get out they are trying to replicate at least not entirely.

I think you have some people who are just excited for this film because it is a breakthrough in terms of the hero and cast for a film of this scale. Other folks are going to want to turn it into a bigger political statement, which is their prerogative.
If nothing else I hope it starts to make the point that the general film audience doesn't care about race so much as they do really good movies. And this one is looking awesome.
I was midly excited to see WW. After all the DC failures, it was hard to get too excited. But when it killed it at the box office and with critics I started to get excited. When I finally saw it, it was just okay. Wasn't bad, but nothing special like it was hyped IMO. I have a feeling this could just be another just okay movie that everyone goes crazy for because of the cast & director. The difference for me is this is the MCU and I've been excited about Black Panther long before it was cool to be excited about a Black Panther movie.jimscott85 said:Much like Wonder Woman, they will benefit from an audience that, otherwise, wouldn't be interested in a superhero movie.

I'd have thought the same thing, but early word is that Michael B Jordan is one of the best Marvel villains yet. Can't wait to see if that's true.Bruce Almighty said:
My biggest worry about Black Panther is the villain being too similar to the hero.

Just stop. Seriously, just stop.Oddity said:
Time will tell. The movie does indeed look pretty amazing. But, with our technological capabilities in 2018 that's not really something to brag about. We'll see.
