Your analysis has a good kernel of idea. There is an opposition of blackness present in the film, and largely American Urbanism comes off poorly because it isn't the result of a magical technoutopia. When you drop the poo poo about hip hop ghetto culture, you lose the thread because Erik's mannerisms reflect rhat but his personal accomplishments paint the picture of someone that could have been successful were it not for his revenge obsession. It's his militancy, and reliance on western ideas of cultural conquest that are the problem. His die free vs live as a slave bit is oblivious to the massive negative results his revolution would cause. Anyway, random thought. With the revelation that Wakandian spies are embedded all over the place does that cast the aide workers in the attack in Civil War in a different light??

Tsyni posted:I am...a bit confused about the positive reception to this movie. But its also a AAA High Profile film that unabashedly celebrates Afrocentrism. Black audiences usually have to settle for the latest Tyler Perry effort to see something marketed for them, so this is somewhat of an event film. (Yeah there's some problems with its implications of Black American Culture that critics have picked up on).

SuperMechagodzilla posted:Of course there are other black heroes, films, directors... but whites don’t like those. They weren’t good enough. They weren’t popular-profitable enough. BP is unapologetically Afrocentric in a way that hasn't been seen or attempted in popular media to this scale. The crossover success is validation because of normalizing effects, and the financial success rebuts the talking point that those films aren't of value to a film company. But the inclination to deligitimize the importance of the film or reduce the achievement of the director is dishearenting. Linda Rondstat's 'Canciones de mi Padre' wasnt hailed by a generation of Mexican Americans because of its technical innovation, but because it created cultural validity. There's also an uncomfortable subtext where the director created something of significance, but because it was genre work it is somehow a less valid achievement

No really, it's surprising that Zuri outright interferes in a deathblow and the match isn't called in favor of Erik right there.

There's been lots of praise for its design work, the prominence of its female leads (as well as the fact the cast isnt some shade of Beyonce pale), and the antagonist's complexity. Cant say much to its cinematography, fight choreography, or CGI quality though. Hell, I'll throw in the fact that the opening is N'jobu retelling Wakanda's mythology to Erik as being particularly inventive. Thats a clever touch.
