Still don’t plan on seeing it. I probably will - but not until after opening weekend.

Not that I’m against black characters - I’m just sick of the politicization. If I were black, I’d be upset that I was being patronized - U need to see this movie if you is black!

If anything this is white CEO exploitation of the black people.

Just caught part of a, I guess it would be an ad, where the actor that played 'Black Panther' described the movie in part as a "cultural experience", really, SciFi and fantasy are now cultural experiences? Or is this guy so full of crap that anything with a Black lead/hero is a cultural experience?

Shaft was a cultural experience!

Who's the black private dick

That's a sex machine to all the chicks? (Shaft)

You're damn right

Who is the man that would risk his neck for his brother,

man? (Shaft)…

Can ya dig it? Who's the cat that won't cop out when there's danger all about? (Shaft) Right on

You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother (Shut your mouth)

Black Panther has always been a black super-hero, and not an “angry black man” like John Stewart, the alternate Green Lantern of Sector 2814. BP really is the kind of super-hero that we would like black kids to look up to.

I haven’t seen the movie because I don’t do theaters anymore, but at face value (and based on BP’s appearances in other MCU movies) I’m not going to denounce this character.
