[QUOTE=BBeeryan;3150622]NATE ikr?! Ugh... you just don't know how excited I am for the future of their relationship. 2017 has been an absolute treat for me. I got so many things I've been asking for from them as couple, just this year alone. They reconciled in a very believable and respectable manner, their relationship was started back up with them showing an undying love for one another, I FINALLY got a story where T'Challa uses his brain and wisely uses Storm as his game-changing, dues ex machina (better known as his Trump card) Hadari Yao, anyone? So when I think about their potential as couple and what that means of the MU as a whole? All I have to say is: Dwayne McDuffie. *drops mic*
Can you imagine? Coates would quite literally have a monopoly on their relationship. Hudlin should have been given the reigns to a Storm title to ensure that her character development in BP could not have been ignored during his run.[/QUOTE]
The X books can still ignore Storms relationship with T'CHalla... they just likely won't be able to conflict with it. IE they are free to not mention or show T'Challa in the book... but in the least they will likely have to follow Coats lead as far as who Storm is dating. Unless marvel editorial decided they wanted to dictate things for whatever reason (movie reasons or whatever). But at this point I doubt marvel cares since they clearly seem fine with Coates bringing them back togehter.

I'm fine with that too. Just as long as it isn't fair game to crap all over the work of someone who actually wants to write her and her relationship to T'Challa in a meaningful and thought provoking way. The time for that being ok has passed. X-men writers in general needs to come to grips with the fact that Storm exists in a shared universe. They should learn what professionalism means and conduct themselves in a manner that is befitting of someone of that calibre. They should have the decency to build on the aspects her character that they do like, not pile heaps of shit of the things they don't like. What part of the game is that?

It is sort of weird how there's a degree of tension or whatever between the BP and X-Men franchise. Even in the very first Wild Kingdom cross over BP had with the X books where they first started the marriage stuff, it almost seemed like marvel wanted to pit the fan bases against each other than bring them together. It was weird. You'd think they want the exact opposite since the characters were getting married.

[QUOTE=4sake Baned;3149590]That's how these white supremacist think & how they think the good blk folks should react to these statements,he or Jason Aaron (Aarons is not up front with his as Ellis is but he in the same boat I'm) they will never see another penny of minds. Don't care what they write or how they write it, even f they apologize for the white supremacist mind set they wrote with & say it now in the past.. Naw I'm good..[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I've been curious about guys like Ellis and Aaron, especially Aaron. He's the one that put Storm with Wolverine in the Marvel NOW Wolverine and the X Men series. I remember him defending Rick Remender when he wrote Havok saying don't call him the M Word (mutie) in Uncanny Avengers. He's like the Geoff Johns of Marvel. He can do whatever wants and claims he want to promote diverse heroes but only really cares about catering his fanboy fantasies.

There so much truth in this post. But as evidence of Avx and IvX, fan rage is apparently a bigger sales driver and cause for Internet discussion, apparently.

Straight to DVD LEGO movie coming guys

[QUOTE=RLAAMJR.;3150596]Storm was on almost every episode. If you'll check the intro, Storm was one of the few shown and named just like how the main members of the xmen were introduced on the xmen opening intro.[/QUOTE]
No she wasn’t. I have the series on iTunes and watch it all the time.
She was in two episodes. Once in the beginning when she called T’Challa and the Wakandan embassy guy didn’t know who she was and once near the end when she helped T’Challa fight Klaw and his Army Of bad guys

Damn, if you would’ve told me five years ago that Black Panther would be on the rise like this I would’ve thought you were living a pipe dream. All we need now is a solo video game.

A sandbox/open work Black Panther videogame would be a dream come true.

This is completely random but I was just thinking if Marvel Studios allowed the Black Panther film to have a soundtrack filled with popular artists. Do you know how stacked it would be? It would probably go down history as one of the best hip hop/R&B soundtracks of all time joining the ranks of Boomerang, Space Jam, Soul Food, Above the Rim.etc

[QUOTE=Rumble;3148500] They're making Luke Cage more black community, black masculinity and black people... and less about white wives, white best friends and being the token black guy amongst a crowd of white people who you have to ask money for to buy diapers for your kid.
[/QUOTE][QUOTE=Ziggiyy;3149914]And it was phenomenal[/QUOTE]
Funny how that works eh? :D lol
[QUOTE=Nate Grey;3150554]Skip over what I said all I want, people in this very thread have pointed out how its not a good look for Cage. Repeatedly. [B]So basically you have the balls to say this to me, but not the others who have said the same damn things I have[/b] and even articulated it better? I guess cause I don't participate much, but ironically this is exactly why. You're happy with "battered sitcom husband" Cage. Great. Others are not. And thankfully we're not getting that version of Cage no matter how much you WANT it to happen.
That's YOUR wishful thinking being projected here, no different than others hoping those two stay friends and have respective other partners. Funny you can't see that.
No more than it means that it does. Again, you skip over stuff that you can't rebut. By your logic Danny and Misty are endgame too. Good luck with that.[/QUOTE]
Well, if I'm one to habitually (sardonically? :p) acknowledge and call out the emasculation, sabotage and overall racist acts by writers and editors levied on black characters, xpac prefers to dabble in a different spectrum. The ying to Mr. Majestic's yang. He prefers not to come this way anymore. Or Mr. Majestic's way. Prefers to just quote the people who quotes us. It's cool tho.
But you've articulated it as well as anyone else has or could, so don't get that twisted.
Ever since i brought up Sitcom Cage's comic situation compared to his Netflix situation, some people get it and some people don't, or wouldn't. That's cool tho too. Bast bless us all

[B]No.. she wasn't. Just because they showed the character a voice actor was playing ad in the intro does not mean they showed up in pretty much every episode.
It was like 1 brief cameo appearance [/B]

For the phase one MCU movies, they all got an accompanying video game. Shame that they stopped doing that now that T'Challa movie is coming up.
Though in all fairness those games were of so-so quality.

It seems like having those sort of high profile movie sound tracks are a thing of the past now (maybe because fewer and fewer people actually pay for music at this point). But I'll wager if this movie occured like a decade or so ago when CD's were still a thing, a good bit of money could be made in a BP sound track.
