Cannot doubt " Avengers Infinity War" is going to be huge.

I’m at a coffee shop next to a movie theater. It’s super crowded.

218 million could have bought a lot of books, meals, school uniforms, birth control, after school tutors, Dave Ramsey classes.

You know, useful stuff.

I haven’t been in a movie theatre since “Top Gun” first came out...haven’t missed it either.

I have cable, but no premium channels.

I seldom watch TV either.

“Panther” is just an “nay-nay-nay-nay-nahhhhh-nay” slap at white superheroes. More cultural and societal crap, than entertainment. Just a big CGI event, that’s all.

Just spoke to my son. He saw the film. He said that it was “ok - notheing special.” Wasn’t must humor...very “serious” film.

Most overrated movie of all time was “Gone With the Wind.”

Huge opening. I wonder where it will be in three weeks though?

It seems like A LOT of artificial hype, because of the typical leftist black worship over guilt.

“Panther” is just an “nay-nay-nay-nay-nahhhhh-nay” slap at white superheroes.

From a review "Wakanda is ruled by King T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman), who is also known as the Black Panther. T’Challa is big on border security, believes Wakanda and Wakandans should come first, and fiercely protects his country’s culture from outsiders, including refugees. If this is all starting to sound familiar, it should. Also like President Donald Trump, T’Challa’s beliefs are not based on race. This is not a “black thing.” This is a culture/survival thing."

I don’t get super-hero movies in general. Seems very childish to me. Doesn’t matter what color they are. Whether it be Batman, Spider Man or whatever else, I’m thinking target audience of 7-12 year old boys.

Movie profits mostly go to the production and distribution folks...

Black Panther - Produced by Kevin Feige (who is white)... Production company is Marvel Studios... Distributed by Walt Disney Studios...

Are they accepting EBT cards? That could explain this travesty.

My neighbor posted a pic of the theater crowds on her Facebook page. It's a huge hit, no doubt about that.

So Whitey ends up getting rich from it in the end.

I always point out the fact that the reason white music executives love rap music, is because it’s cheap to produce and very profitable for them, that’s why it was dumped on the masses in the 80s.

I thought this movie was about the REAL black panthers. Bobby Seale, Huey Newton, Angela Davis, etc.....
