My take is that this reminds me of the Black Exploitation films of the 1970’s. It is just a Big Budget film that does have crossover appeal, much like “Shaft” was in 1971.
Personally I am burned out on these Comic Book and Sci-Fi movies, so I probably want see it until it turns up on Netflix or something.

Because we feel this movie, the whole hype surrounding it is nothing but another attack on White, where Black is the good guy and White the bad. Because it is all based on skin color, it has nothing to teach anybody. That is, unless all of the claim of the racists on both sides are true. It’s nothing about people getting along together.

why, as some of us are keenly aware of what this black panther symbolizes and find it just as vile, disturbing, and repulsive as if the propaganda were instead titled grand wizard and took place within a fantasy white supremacist utopia?!? with the entire internet at your disposal, its your choice to drink the kool aid!!!

What were the demographics of the attendees? Mostly white or black?

Funny how nobody is going to complain about the lack of diversity in the cast.

Your first post in how many weeks, and it’s to tell us just how “racist” we are.

I would say 60/40 Black. I was surprised to see so many whites. Probably Hillary voters.

Yes, it says I am not a freaking racist lunatic.
To: Steven Scharf
It is not presales. Most movie goers buy tickets in advance especially when it is a big opening.
Yes. But I’ve never heard it reported before.

I’ve heard of presales.
I went to the movie Friday at noon. Full showing, and there was s total of 4 non black people (me among them).
Good movie, but predictable, for this Marvel fan. Won’t put any spoilers, but there were a few parts I didn’t like.

Actual, it’s about black on black crime, and father figure abandonment that I took from it as a central theme.
Sure, there’s a bad guy who’s white (Klaue), but there’s a good guy who’s white, top (Ross).

I’ve not seen any of the comic book movies and don’t intend to. What’s the big deal about this one? Did they make a black guy the hero? I thought that has been a fixed rule in Hollywood for many years now.
