Haha, I saw the Passion of Christ in highschool with some friend (one of whom was black). That was the Mel Gibson film that was totallyin Hebrew, Latin, and Aramaic.
Anyway, right as the film was starting this group of black guys comes in behind, sit down, and start chatting. Then the film comes on in whatever language came first, one of says loudly enough for whole movie theater to hear"Awww man, this movies in ARAB or bullshit, let's get outa here" and they all left. It was hysterial. My buddy laughed harder than anyone.
I would gladly give black people Black Panther, every rapping asshat, and every ghetto trash and trash ghetto in the world if they would get the FUCK out of my European fantasy and historical drama!
The real question is why any self-respecting White person would ever want to sit through an openly political nogfest struggle session anyways, let alone pay for it.
I watched the original on a plane due to seemingly everyone I knew raving about what an amazing movie it was. It wasn't, it was competent at best, a by the numbers movie that followed the same exact superhero origin story we've been seeing for decades (with a much less interesting character) while throwing out some "colonizer" rhetoric. I didn't even know there was a sequel but can only imagine how bad it must be.
Really interesting how media hype can cause people to believe something is so much better than it is
Couple reasons. One, they have to consume every MCU movie and show out of fear of missing out on what is clearly the cultural sensation of the millennium. Doesn't matter if the MCU has been going steadily downhill; the last ten movies and shows might have sucked ass, but the next one could be totally awesome and they could all be building up to something legendary that will completely justify why everything before was so shitty. Either way, they won't know unless they watch it!
Two, they are compelled to show their support for black people to prove that they are totes not racist. To that end, they are willing to ignore if not outright accept all the naked hostility and metaphorical shit flung at them by black people for the past half-century because they deserve to be a "little" angry at all the white people who are responsible for oppressing them for merely existing. After all, it's not racist when they do it; racism is power plus privilege after all! So no cardinal sin is being committed anyway! And they're sure to get it out of their system eventually, and when they do, we can all join hands under the rainbow in diversity...right?
Why does she love White people so much that only they should be protected from this torture? It is against the Geneva convention to intentionally inflict such suffering.
Is that supposed to be reverse psychology? Because I'm fully on board to go along with the request, and I expect that I'll thoroughly enjoy never having to watch it.
Aren't black people trashing the concept of this movie too? Especially with the knowledge that Boseman himself said to recast the role of T'Challa after he dies?
That's hysterical. Black audiences are notorious for being rowdy, loud and obnoxious. Most people make it a point to avoid such movie theaters. :')
Sounds like a thinly-veiled threat to me, honestly. What she's really saying is: "Stay out of our movie or we'll fucking kill you."

I wish they'd fuck off so they can let White people enjoy American in peace.
Wasn't there a chimp shootout at a cinema before or after the showing of the first movie, too?

Appeasement does not work.
Amen.
Cool. I will await all the articles blaming white people for the movie not doing a billion dollars at the box office then.

Black Panther was extremely basic
Especially since the lead actor died before the sequel could be filmed.

They wouldn't.
An identity based purely on skin colour, that's never gone badly in history...

Avoid Disney trash?
Done, and done.
So ridiculous
lol blaqs aren't going to see a girl black panther. only white liberals will pretend that it isn't silly.
Most black men will have zero interest in a woman - especially a black one, being the lead. This will be hilarious to see it fail.
Just watch Mauler review them, far more entertaining.
I mean, it's a movie about women taking over their beloved Wakanda.
It'll get one or two days before word spreads about how whitey ruined BP.
Women in journalism will stoke the flames of race division over it, because they know it was actually them.
Two hours later...
"Why is our movie tanking? Damn raysist whypepo!"
Your terms are acceptable
/lead actor dies
Hm, not so 'forever' I guess.
Is that supposed to be reverse psychology? Because I'm fully on board to go along with the request, and I expect that I'll thoroughly enjoy never having to watch it.
Well I wasn’t intending to.
Fuck that, if I really wanted to watch this shit, I'd find a 'free' movie site online.
Don't attend it, regardless of your skin colour.
Seeing the unnecessary changes to Namor and his people killed any curiosity that I might have had in ever seeing this.
50/50 chance this will fail for one reason:
Chadwick Boseman Is dead. This was made for Disney to milk his image one last time before throwing it into the dumpster.
Deal
This game of trying to see how shit they can make a movie without losing money is getting tiresome

That movie looks gay and retarded.
No worries, looks like a complete turd
