Black Panther (February 16, 2018)

Good question. We were talking about the first installment of each franchise only not the sequels.

Now that I think on it more, Panther might be better than cap and tied with the I first installment of Iron Man!

 

I'LL ADD IT TO MY COLLECTION...

 

Is it ?

 

Yes

 

I saw it the other day with my 9 year old son and enjoyed it very much. I think Marvel’s been doing so many things well with the superhero movies. Perhaps there’s not too much of a stretch to say that they waited until the perfect moment to make and release this film. The world is ready for it, it seems. It sends a strong positive message out to the world.

 

The same old song but with a different meaning.

 

Wow, that's amazing. I knew it would do well but that is so far ahead of any hopes they could have had.

Some joker here last year said it would flop, his comment was along the lines of 'Does anyone want a BP movie?'. I told him he was wrong but I suspect there may be other reasons why some people want a film like this to fail, along with female led Star Wars movies.

 

Bought his own comic in the seventies, ( first appeared in the FF, 1966), was never that impressed with the comic. But the 2018 film adaptation is something else. Nice the movie is doing well and getting a lot of love.

 

I saw it Saturday with my sons. It starts out sort of slow, but gets much better. Not the greatest movie I've ever seen, but enjoyable and worth seeing.

 

Just goes to show you: I loved the score, and my wife, who usually hates action movies, said for once the fights were done really well because she could follow the action.

My wife, of all people, really wanted to see this so we went yesterday. It was fun. I think the best part was the villain, who felt like he actually had some depth and complexity to him, and wasn't just a one-dimensional, evil guy hell-bent on destruction.

 

Kevin Smith getting choked up about a Marvel movie. Hard not to laugh.

 

Sound interesting, but who knows. Maybe it's the standout superhero movie I've been waiting for? I did like the first Spiderman. The first Ironman, and the first Thor. So maybe I should see this as it's Black Panther's first appearance. But I'm skeptical. For me at this point, to paraphrase some other Panthers, maybe the only good superhero is a dead superhero.

 

The man will cry at the drop of a hat!

 

Mark Kermode said the exact same thing and he doesn't tend to like Superhero films but he thought this was good.

 

Never rated that guys critique.

 

Too late to wish for failure!

 

His first standalone movie, but not his first appearance. The character was introduced in 2016's "Captain America: Civil War". So was the current Spidey, if I remember right.

 

That was the joke I was coming here to post!

"Martin Freeman, who played Bilbo Baggins, and Andy Serkis, who played Gollum, are the only two major roles by white actors in Black Panther. They're the Tolkien white guys."

 

And, the musical tie-in... 'Black Panther: The Album' is a hit — and it could change the music industry

 

See, now this is the kind of hyperbole that gets the eyes a-rollin', especially after reading the article. Wow, a successful soundtrack album that serves as a sentimental reminder of the movie? A symbiosis between the film and the music? Ooooohhhh.

 

The music in the movie was seriously horrible.

 

THIS JUST IN - BEST BUY AND TARGET ARE SELLING CDS AGAIN! BLACK PANTHER HAS SINGLE HANDEDLY SAVED THE MUSIC AND FILM INDUSTRY! But first, weather....

Berry Gordy said the same thing about "The Wiz" soundtrack.

Which I happily own on LP and blu-ray, thank you very much.

Is this a news article or a press release?

What about the "Guardians of the Galaxy" soundtrack, which was also a big seller? Even on cassette!

I don't even know what this means.
