I didn't notice this. It looked sort of like all the Marvel movies to me I guess, and I am a huge fan of the Marvel movies. But to me, this was just a regular one - like Ant Man, or the one Thor with the dark elf fag, or Iron Man 3. Just a standard decent brain candy Marvel flick. Gaurdians, Raganarok, and the first Iron Man were on another level - as was the first Avengers, and Infinity War I hear. There was nothing "next level" about Black Panther. Standard Marvel stuff. But, 97% score on Rotten Tomatoes!?!?!?!?! Number one all time out of 63 comics movies ever ranked! Better than Ragnarok? Better than Logan? Better than Dark Knight? Better than Infinity War?phineas said:It looked cheaply made to me. Like, huge portions of the movie were pretty clearly shot in front of an obvious green screen. And it was in fast forward. Or am I just looking for reasons not to like it? It looked like a cheap, rushed piece of shit.
Give me a fucking break.
Also interesting to note Wonder Woman is currently second. LOfuckignL. That was another good movie - in fact WW was better than BP I thought. But better than all those other movies I listed? No fucking way.
All black cast in number 1, and feminism vehicle in number 2. Better than all those other movies that anyone with a half a brain would prefer? Checks out. -
I watched infinity war last night....
It's kind of corny.
They spend so much time trying to be super clever in how the characters meet each other. -
I liked wonder woman because I jerked off like 4 times and the fight scenes were coolSwaye said:

I really liked Black Panther. It isn't number 1, but I'd put it above the ones like Ant-Man or Civil War.Swaye said:

My only issue with the film was that they took this (fictional) African country with what seemed to be very interesting cultural practices and then made the villain someone who sounds like they came from Fruitvale Station (strangely enough, another Coogler film starring Michael B. Jordan. Weird). In a span of something like 24 hours this villain (who admittedly was one of the best the MCU has seen) has taken over and is completely ruining the Wakanda that's interesting to see. Then, after T'Challa kills him, it's, "oh wait, he was right."
I just don't like how Coogler kind of turned the film into a cultural message straight from Fruitvale Station instead of an MCU superhero film.
That being said, I'd still put it way up there only behind mayyyybe Deadpool, then for sure Guardians 1, Ragnarok, and Avengers (original and Infinity War). Infinity War is very good because it's fucking ballsy and has a great villain. Dark Knight is better than BP because to me the Dark Knight is the best superhero movie ever made. I've never watched Logan because I have a searing hatred for those films after watching the Wolverine X Men Origins, but I know it's supposed to be great.
The thing with Rotten Tomatoes is that it doesn't offer a weighted grade. 97% just means 97% of critics said it's good - but most critics offer ratings such as x out of 4, or y out of 5. On IMDB, with weighted fan grades, it comes in at 9th.
However, Metacritic ranked all 49 Marvel movies by Metascore (weighted average of every review possible), and Black Panther came in at #1.
I think this is the point where we understand that if critics DON'T favorably review Black Panther, they get called racist. Add that to the fact that it is still an excellent film, and you get the ranking it has. I found Black Panther to be much better than Wonder Woman, which I still really enjoyed (go ahead, call me a fag).
Having watched every MCU film (and a few of the others ranked in the Metacritic ranking), stuff tends to get praised because it is new and different. Most of Rotten Tomatoes' highest ranked movies are like from 1940 or earlier (Get Out is up there, along with Inside Out which fucking sucks, Mad Max, and Moonlight). I won't pretend Citizen Kane isn't great, but holy fuck was Metropolis the most boring fucking film we ever watched in film studies. For the materials they had, it's good, but oh my god my entire film studies class slept through the whole damn thing. That movie fucking sucks by today's standards, and it still has like a 99 percent or something stupid.
Rotten Tomatoes is just not a good measure for so many reasons, but Black Panther is a film that I feel is a) excellent and b) overrated. -
I'm boycotting all superhero movies. If I want to feel the black power, I'll just go watch Django Unchained or something.
Also...wtf is 4-D??? Do people even know what the 4th dimension is? Fuck outta here. -
Good chit man. I can appreciate your perspective. I didn't think it is quite as good as you did, but that's personal preference. I appreciate the excellent BUT still overrated line. Might be a good way to look at it. I thought I was going to be watching The Godfather or some shit based on the reviews and scores, and then watching it I'm like "Okay, this is pretty good and all but wtf?" This is pretty standard Marvel stuff. Certainly not near the best they have turned out, and nowhere near the life changing type cinema masterpiece all the critics are painting it to be. But I did like the white people bashing. That was cool.jhfstyle24 said:

Michael b Jordan was a dumb villain.
Watched Deadpool 2 last night. Good stuff. -
didnt see the movie but:
does he really speak with a flamboyant french accent in the movie? ...why? -
An annoying social justice friend said it was great, so I avoided it, because he's 50,000 times the fag Honda is, but now that mainstream people like it, maybe I'll give it a chance in the dollar theater, or Redbox, or Netflicks. I generally don't like Marvel movies much (DC are okay).

He speaks with a local accent, actually. It's not French ( I speak French, that's not what French sounds like). It's just toned up because he is yelling.BaldwinIV said:didnt see the movie but:
