Unca Ben Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Re-watched this on Netflix the other night. What a great movie. In the top five Marvel movies, for me. One thing I noticed was the lack of over-the-top humor that's prevalent in many of the Marvel Studios movies; just enough humor to complement the drama (GotG vol 1 notwithstanding). Upon second viewing I can see how it was so popular and made so much money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Great movie. A 5/5 for me. The only thing that I didn't like was the death of Klaue. I wanted to see more of him in a Black Panther sequel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I would say it probably should be. If the ending was stronger and didn't end in typical Marvel movie fashion, the case would be better. It might not even with most popular, possibly losing to Crazy Rich Asians (who even knows what the criteria is? what a freaking joke of a category!)

To what are you referring? The Academy has scrapped the proposed new "Achievement in Popular Film" category and it's a fairly weak year for Best Picture nominees. I think Black Panther could still get a Best Picture nomination (although it won't win). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theCapraAegagrus Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 What is the definition of the "Best Picture" award? Like, the Hart Trophy is presented to the player deemed most valuable to his team (by the Writer's Association). Is "Best Picture" for 'Best Film'? I thought it was for something like 'Best Visual Story'? Idk. Black Panther is a great movie, but it's not the best of 2018. Visually, story, or otherwise. Obviously IMO.

Obviously IMO. I would not call it a great movie. A solid Marvel movie, okay, but it did not live up to the hype when I finally saw it. Now if you want to call it the most socially important Marvel film to date, definitely. Take out the social context, which was Disneyfied and toned down anyway, and it was an okay hero movie. It was a middling Marvel movie, on par with stuff like Captain Marvel 1, Thor 1 or Thor Dark World from an enjoyment and watchability perspective IMHO. Maybe my expectations were too high? I still don't care for the actor that plays T'Challa (too wooden/stiff), and found Killmonger to be one dimensional with a so-so acting job as well. The female leads were far more interesting, but maybe that was the angle Disney was looking for? Edited November 15, 2018 by kimik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It suffers from typical hero tropes like the ol' fake death routine, villain has the same power/suit, etc. It's still well-directed, acted, and culturally accurate. It's earns its stripes.
