[QUOTE]4. "Black Panther" (2018)
Disney
Directed by Ryan Coogler
Maybe it's too early to have "Black Panther" so high on the list, but I'm doing it anyway. It's already broken plenty of box-office records and introduced audiences to a diverse cast rarely seen in superhero films. In the same way that "Wonder Woman" impacted so many for being a female-centric superhero movie, "Black Panther" is the first in the genre to feature a nearly all-black cast. Set in the fictional African nation of Wakanda, "Black Panther" brings audiences to a world unlike any in other superhero movies, and its storyline tackles modern political and social issues that other superhero movies wouldn't dare touch. Michael B. Jordan's villain Killmonger is one of the best villains in the genre, simply because his purpose can resonate with so many. [/QUOTE]

MICAH PETERS SAYS:
Listen, the best way I can describe Black Panther is by making you listen to this song.
What is Black Panther’s most iconic moment? There are many: Okoye using her wig as a weapon; Michael B. Jordan’s menacing and accidentally sultry “Hey, auntie”; literally everything that Shuri says, even her dated “What Are Thoooooose?” joke. But the most iconic moment is by far M’Baku barking Everett Ross into submission in the Jabari throne room.
What about Black Panther didn’t age well? The final fight scene on the train track between Killmonger and T’Challa, for two reasons. First, there’s nothing all that special about it. What I desperately wanted, at some point, was a tracking shot fight à la the one in Creed, which would’ve been groundbreaking—though I concede that desire was greedy and unreasonable for a superhero film involving this much CGI. Second, it was so much less climactic than the final fight scenes in Civil War and Winter Soldier, which I guess is what happens when you go with tricking—which is something like an amalgam of free-running and capoeira—instead of MMA for fight choreography.

[QUOTE]Most superhero movies are fundamentally conservative. Not necessarily politically — though all too many of them are, what with their affection for violent maintenance of the status quo. They’re artistically conservative, rarely taking risks that would challenge corporate conventional wisdom, and typically harking back with nostalgia for the past. They rarely try to invent anything or push the genre forward in a substantial way. Then, it’s 2018, 20 years into the present superhero boom, and here comes writer-director Ryan Coogler, a fierce-eyed Afrofuturist, preaching to us the gospel of the Black Panther. The character’s eponymous film is so stunning that words fail in the immediate aftermath of a first viewing. You’ve seen something not conservative, not even progressive, but downright revolutionary.
On a purely superheroic level, it fires on all cylinders. Chadwick Boseman’s titular protagonist is an instant icon thanks to his tentatively regal charisma, contemplative speech patterns, cryptic smile, perfected body, and profoundly evocative eyes. His rival, Michael B. Jordan’s Erik Killmonger, is among the best villains to ever grace the superhero genre in any medium, presenting an intimidating swagger and a persuasive master plan. Their conflict is Shakespearean in its themes, epic in its dialogue (though also prone to delightful dips into vernacular), and jaw-dropping in its climactic action. The CGI and practical effects are near-perfect and the costuming and production design, with its mix of pan-Africanism and the Apple Store, looks unlike anything we’ve seen before. Although it’s billed as a solo flick, it’s really about an African superteam, most of whom are women: Lupita Nyong’o’s Nakia, Danai Gurira’s Okoye, Letitia Wright’s Shuri, Angela Bassett’s Ramonda, and the nameless legions of the all-female fighting force known as the Dora Milaje are vividly imagined and endlessly engaging. And it’s funny as hell, to boot (Wright is a particular standout in this regard, and an early moment when she quotes an internet meme leaves one who gets the reference in tears).
But what truly sets Black Panther apart is that it envisions something no superhero movie — no major studio blockbuster of any kind, really — has ever even come close to contemplating: The complex intersection of black joy and black liberation. In the fictional African nation of Wakanda, Coogler & Co. grant us a utopia in which white colonialism never happened and people of color reached unparalleled excellence. And in the form of Killmonger, it goes one step further and asks what it means to build a utopia and keep it to oneself.
It raises urgent questions about comfort, advancement, and privilege, challenging audiences of any ethnic background to wonder whether they’re doing enough to overturn the systems that make some lives convenient at the expense of the bodies of the oppressed. If you’re watching it right, you finish the movie and feel thrilled, but also stirred to action. It forces you to think not just about the usual superheroic themes of heroism and self-sacrifice, but also about the very nature of social existence. Much in the way that 1978’s Superman made audiences believe a man can fly, Black Panther makes them believe a superhero movie can be explicitly about something.

Black Panther 2 movie set...
A frustrated T'chadwick Boseman storms (yes storms) out of his trailer and makes a beeline straight towards director Coogler.
Boseman: "DUDE, I've been in my trailer all day when do we shoot the next scene?"
Coogler: "Be patient we are still working on the Storm fight scene choreography."
Boseman folds his arms across his chest and decides to watch with a disgusted frown upon his face.
Coogler: "Storm saves Wakanda take 5... Action!"
As the yet unnamed actress portraying Storm flies into the scene on Kung fu movie type wires...
Storm: "I call upon the mighty winds to avenge Wakanda!"
WHOOSH and whatnot. :cool:
Coogler: "CUT! Let's set up the Storm Goddess worshipping scene... EXTRAS, I need you over to the left side of the camera on your knees."
Just then Lupita storms (yes storms) onto the set...
Lupita: "I spent hours in makeup and it's getting late when do we shoot my scene?"
Coogler: "My bad weren't you at the meeting... We scaled back your scenes and gave most of your lines to Storm."
Boseman: "WTF happened to you?"
Lupita: "What do you mean?"
Boseman: "Look in a mirror!"
Lupita snatches a mirror out of her purse and looks at her self closely.
Lupita: "THE HELL..."
Ratchet and tore up from the floor up Lupita smashes the mirror at Coogler's feet.
Coogler: "Ah yes Ugly Nakia, I love it when you stay in character we need more of that feisty attitude so don't hold back!"
Storm: "The script says that I beat up Ugly Nakia when do we film that?"
The Storm actress comes over and whips her hair right in the face of Lupita... WHOOSH and whatnot! ;)

Yep R.I.P Schnepp. The BP he co-directed and the Russo Bros in CW are still my favorites versions.
There's a simple question I think everyone is failing to ask:
In [I]the context of the MCU[/I], why would BP and Storm get together?
With Wakanda's canonical isolationism, it's highly unlikely T'Challa met Ororo in their youth, and "Because it happened in the comics" is not a viable answer.
(Especially with the movies driving the comics more and more, these days.)

True (the bolded), but it's a reason people will give none the less. Example. The #1 reason why Nakia "must" become evil/Malice.

It's really not that hard to make up a scenario where T'Challa and Storm met in their youth IF the movie decides they have history together. It's not like anything implies he's NEVER left Wakanda.
And of course, if they decide not to go that route, it's all moot anyways. Pairing Storm with T'Challa is by no means a given or an obligation... it's merely an available option now down the road.
[QUOTE=Anthony Shaw;3817202]I honestly think it would be too complicated to introduce Storm as a key player in the current BP franchise.
We have no insight on what casting specifics the MCU will have for the X-Men. We don't know what age range Storm will be.
I'd be okay with a platonic cameo, though.[/QUOTE]
I genuinely don't see the point of a platonic cameo. That's just fanservice without serving the story at all while still drastically undercutting the entire original point (so not even appeasing the fans). I'm not saying I care one way or the other whether Storm and T'Challa get together, but, if they appear together, it makes way more sense to actually embrace it if you're going that far. That being said, the MCU doesn't mirror the comics when it comes to superhero relationships, otherwise, Black Widow would have been with either Hawkeye or Daredevil and wasn't.

I don't think the idea of Ororo going to Wakanda is as unlikely as you might think. If Klawe was capable of going in, other people could be too. Or maybe one of her parents was a secret agent sent to infiltrate the world (obviously, it's pretty similar to N'Jadaka's story, though). Alternatively, you could have them meet in the modern day with the Avengers meeting the X-Men.
Marvel Premiere #51 - [i]The Killing of Windeagle[/i]
[img]https://www.use.com/images/s_2/3d6c9050906f2d6eb452_6.jpg[/img]
Sorry I missed yesterday. That was to simulate the delay between the two issues - yeah, that's totally it!
As a bit of recap, last issue ended with T'Challa escaping from his water wheel torture after battling Wind Eagle. But Wind Eagle is still waiting in the wings (uh, no pun intended). After that, T'Challa teamed up with Mr. Little to retrieve King Solomon's frogs. Meanwhile, in Wakanda, his half-brother Jakarra mutated himself with the help of Vibranium. T'Challa defeated him but got exposed to raw Vibranium in the explosion that gave him extra-sensory perception. He used his new powers to sense Khanata, a member of his family, was in danger from Kiber the Cruel. He got himself kidnapped, defeated Kiber, rescued everyone, and jokingly (?) annexed the island to Wakanda.
He then went to the Wakandan consulate in New York as part of an effort to reveal Wakanda to the world. He meets the Avengers and reveals to everyone that he actually doesn't have ESP despite clearly having ESP. He then fights the Thunderbolt gang and then Ulysses Klaw. Meanwhile, Monica Lynne and Kevin Trublood show up to the Wakandan consulate to try and track down T'Challa to find out what happened to him. Then Wind Eagle appears outside.
This is an issue of Marvel Premiere, so readers would have to have jumped from Black Panther #15 to this book to continue the story. Readers of Jungle Action hopefully found out about it or had been reading Black Panther's book as well. The story begins with union movers moving stuff to the consulate. Just then, T'Challa is attacked by Wind Eagle. Oddly enough, T'Challa doesn't remember Wind Eagle at all or his talk of the Reverend. When they capture him, T'Challa goes inside and it's clear he doesn't remember Monica Lynne either! Monica and Kevin Trublood say this means that the Dragon's Circle has gotten to him.
T'Challa asks Monica to tell him her story. She tells of a man she knew that came with her to the south and battled the Dragon's Circle and the Klan while investigating her sister's murder. It's basically a recap of the Jungle Action story. One thing I noticed is they claim that the people who captured T'Challa and put him on a burning cross were Dragon's Circle posing as Klansmen. I seem to recall no indication of this in the original story and I wonder if it was a deliberate retcon to soften the Klan's role in this story. During this time, T'Challa's memory came back. Interestingly enough, his memory only comes back to the extent someone wrote a comic of it. After that, it stops again.
Then Wind Eagle escapes again. T'Challa notices that his flying equipment is similar to that of the Falcon, which suggests the Dragon's Circle has infiltrated the Wakandan scientific community. This is a big change from McGregor's story but is a welcome one based on what's already there. His outfit does resemble Falcon's and it raises additional interesting story opportunities. Anyway, Wind Eagle seems to hesitate and not fight at full strength during his fight. Because of this, someone shoots at him from a window and kills him.
This issue is taken up significantly by the flashback, which was necessary to bring everyone up to speed. That being said, there are some intriguing moments added - albeit, to an already overly complicated story. T'Challa's memory loss is a new mystery with potential. The infiltration of Wakanda could also be interesting if a bit of a copy of Panther's Rage. The only thing I didn't really like is that they killed Wind Eagle, which felt like a total waste of a potentially good character.

Klaue got in because he was working with a Prince to infiltrate and get out.
Without N'jobobobobbobobo knowledge, dudes still in Wakandan prison right now at best.
1. One of the high points of BP movie was the fact it was "progressive" in the sense you had an african kingdom, an purely honorable black king who was not a "noble negro" trope, woman empowerman, touched on colonialism and racism, ect.
To do that, and turn around and turn Nakia into a jilted evil jealous ex would be... incredibly jarring and stupid.
2. Movie Nakia to turn around and be an jilted evil ex makes no sense for this character. She is NOT obsessed with T'challa. She is anti-obsessed. She was perfectly willing to leave the dude, again, to help the world. She may love T'challa but he is priority number 2, at best. T'challa was more thirsty for Nakia than the other way around. Nakia ain't the one that froze lol.
3. Lupita is a very dark skinned, short "nappy" hair, African looking chick (yes I know she's part mexican). The fact she was the love interest in the movie is EMPOWERING to a lot of Black females.
If you dump her for Storm, who a lot of times is drawn with VERY white features, has long white girl hair most of the time... and has been played so far by two light skinned chicks.... you are sending a very weird message and potentially stepping on a hornets nest. You'd have to have VERY careful casting that stands on the fine line of making an "african" storm that also appeases the very idiotic and loud xfans. Good luck.
