Black Panther was released during peak MCU. It gets no credit on its own. The media hyped it up beyond belief so this clown thinks it was some world changing masterpiece lol
And I haven't heard or thought about Coco since it released whenever the fuck that was.
I still remember an article calling it the most diverse movie ever and then saying it was 96% black cast. The logic leaps they do are quite a spectacle.
Black Panther is a legitimately bad movie. The story is dumb and the cgi is bad. If I were a black kid seeking quality “representation” in the MCU, I wouldn’t be happy with that massively overrated and overhyped turd of a film.
I thought Black Panther as a character was better in Civil War. I’ve been reading comic books since I was a kid and I think a better movie could’ve been done with Black Panther in the days before the obsession with representation. If you want to talk black super hero movies I still say Blade was amazing and I loved Meteor Man as well as Blankman.
It's literally the minstrel show of the MCU. "Look now it's the Africans' turn, let's have them run around with spears and do tribal things. Because that's what Africans would do even in a made-up super-advanced scifi city."
But it's not Africans, it's American Blacks pretending to be African, and literally enacting every available racist stereotype since they are building skyscrapers with huts attached to them, literally throwing spears, and opening magic doors by playing drums. One of the more redeeming characters has a bone through his nose, that's a good thing, because in the comic he was actually part gorilla. Apparently, they picked up on that and thought "hmm... to far."
I see it as every American who talks about living in a castle in Europe. The disconnect from what is talked about and reality is often where we put our imaginations.
Coco was actually a good movie about family and honoring your roots. The final confrontation with the villain was a little cliché, but that's my only complaint about it.

And they literally made it seem like it was the first movie with black ppl

No surprise. A blind man could figure out that “diverse” means no white ppl
The first Black Panther did have one fantastic line, though.
"I am not the king of the world. I am the king of Wakanda."
A shame that didn't stick. Rest in peace, Chadwick.
Waow

It's like a White Nationalist made these films.
