So all my de-colonial peeps on Facebook are seeing this movie, and the common denominator is that Kilmonger rules and this movie might be a fed counter-intelligence project.

In line with what Dexo said earlier, this is exactly what’s wrong with much of the anti colonial/imperialist discourse. Just being anti American Empire doesn’t make you good, personally or politically. This is how you end up unable to distinguish Hamas from the FLN, the FLN from the Viet Cong, etc.

Nobody likes Hamas.

No one liked the Muslim Brotherhood so they rebranded and here they are, back to the start. Tough racket

But I’m specifically thinking of a guy like Moazzam Begg, working with Amnesty and campaigning for Corbyn but cheerleading any anti American power in the Islamic world even if they make the Tories look like Old Bolsheviks. The kind of scatterbrained relativism that ethnic cleansing is ok as long as you hold a refendum on it

Domestically, BP is now the highest grossing comic book film.

I think it’s still third adjusted for inflation, still behind Spider Man, Dark Knight, and Avengers

That’s fourth.

Still, that’s impressive as gently caress.

Prove it, math master :mad:

What makes the film exceptional aside from the box office numbers?

My biggest fear is this means Coogler is a blockbuster guy now, and we’re getting 4 more Black Panthers out of him before he makes another great movie

On top of that, Wakanda should reveal itself and intervene for the practical purpose of self-preservation, lest another black radical be born who threatens their way of life. Any position to the left of liberals are painted as bloodthirsty for Trump's head, when that's clearly a projected desire.

Thanks for the recommendation for "Born in Flames", it sounds amazing.

It's not exactly amazing, but it's legit as gently caress. Working Girls and Erotique are better but not as hardcore
