“I’m sure it’ll be a smash...cough cough cough.”
Already is apparently.
“Disney-Marvel’s “Black Panther” is gaining momentum with forecasts estimating as much as $170 million in North America during the four-day President’s Day weekend, updated tracking shows.” http://variety.com/2018/film/news/box-office-black-panther-opening-weekend-tracking-1202696018/

Forecasts...
Are those the same as election polls? Or are they the same as weather reports?
And I never said that it wouldn’t kill it on opening weekend. But look at all the hype surrounding it. They’re pumping this thing up, more than the last Star Wars. Hell, they had kids crying on line when all those other Star Wars movies came out. If it’s good, it’s good. And good on them for making a good movie. If it sucks, then every excuse in the world will be given and it will all come back to one thing and one thing only.
I’m not saying it’s going to be a bad movie, hell, it might even be a great one. But, they’re pumping it up because it’s a “BLACK SUPERHERO” and ALL should support it because it is a “BLACK SUPERHERO”.
Personally, I’d rather see Gal Gadot, in her Wonder Woman outfit over and over and over again.
