[QUOTE=Amenra11;3810420]Coogler needs to step his game up and show more Wakanda in BP2. The Aquaman trailer shows more of Atlantis than we saw in the BP movie and with more details too.[/QUOTE]
THe only shot in the trailers of atlantis were the "welcome to atlantis" overview, a gladiator fight, and then the "armies running at each other" thing which probably isn't even in "Atlantis" proper. Oceans =/= Atlantis.
Why do so many BP "fans" feel the need to take shots at the movie whenever they get the chance? To the point of just making stuff up?
If anything, one of my worries with the Aquaman movie, as an aquaman fan, is that we won't get enough atlantis. There is an obvious "surface journey" thing going on (id imagine looking for the macguffin) and the Trench is involved, flashbacks, sub fight, ect. The hook of Aquaman is fighting in water, I really don't want them on the surface much.

[QUOTE=XPac;3810452]I will say that what we saw in the Aquaman trailer is impressive. The visual are at least as good as the BP's movies, and with only three quarters of the budget. That said, we're only judging by the trailer, which of course has all the best stuff. We'll see if the whole movie can look that impressive. If it ends up being even half as good as Black Panther, that'll be an accomplishment. The BP movie is the bar to meet, as far as I'm concerned.
I REALLY want to like the Aquaman movie and I fully intend to support it. But really good DC trailers have ended up misleading my before. [B]Suicide Squad looked incredible in the trailer[/B]. But fingers crossed. It looks good, and it's a fun character.[/QUOTE]
Really? I never thought it looked very good. I'm excited to watch Aquaman, but I think the (necessary) reliance on CGI is going to hamper it a bit.

I personally thought "atlantis" looked exactly how we DIDN'T want Wakanda to look. Basically, big shiny star trek city.
People gloss over how much care Coogler and his team took in making Wakanda feel "real" with African influence. It would have been very easy to simply go, "shiny futuristic" instead.
And yeah... CGI critics (im not really one of them) ) are likely going to have a field day with the huge battles with people riding various fish species. If 3 rhinos triggered people......

It would be awesome if we ever get Enemy of the State III in the books.
It would be really great if we can get a live action version of Enemy of the State with the various MCU rulers, movers, and shakers.
Great writing with great actors in a political thriller would be very different, and welcomed.

[QUOTE=MindofShadow;3810372]You keep finding new videos and basically reposting the same thing over and over again lol
A couple BP fans keep saying "I hope BP 2 is TDK levels!" and then miss the fact if BP2 was a movie the was essentialy about a villain, y'all would complain that T'challa didn't get the "spotlight" in his own movie considering people were complaining about it in BP1.
Batman was borderline useless when it came to the Joker until he decide to go Patriot Act on everyone.[/QUOTE]
I've also said T'Challa needed more screen time. I also think Boseman >> Bale in TDK.
The movie needed a longer run time. The 3rd act was rushed. I think when people say TDK levels they are talking about technical levels as well. No wonky CGI, a more visceral and atmospheric film. Coogler showed with Creed that he can take a franchise a totally reinvent it while keeping the spirit of whats come before. I think he does that to a point in BP. Nothing wrong with people wanting it be more of a Ryan Coogler film and feel less Marvel. The key again would be that Coogler can direct as good as Nolan. That's what he needs to do/prove. However, he can certainly tell as good of a story imo. Nolan improved from Begins to TDK. Maybe Coogler can do the same.

I wouldn't say that, but yea we do need more Wakanda in the sequel. Can't have that restricted feeling. Need more space and room to make the The Golden City feel lived in.

I actually wanted a futuristic Wakanda, complete with flying cars ect . IMO when the producers talked about not making Wakanda Asgard on earth; making it feel [B]"real"[/B] that was just code speak for we're not spending our budget on this.

The comments, lol.

I really liked Logan, but I didn't think it was better than BP. It is more visceral and has better action though. Still I prefer BP.
Man there is a lot of hate out there though.

I think futuristic is fine... but going the Star Trek route can make thinks sort of sterile and bland.
What we got instead I think had character. It was futuristic, but still had a sense of history and culture.

I miss epic Black Panther.

Best Picture? Nope. While the film is really good, I don't think it has reached the calibre of winning best picture but if it does , there will be a certain amount of outrage amongst people of the internet.
Best Cinematography, Best costume, best score/soundtrack? Probably
But then again I won't lose sleep if BP doesn't get any Oscar nominations/awards. The fact that a good Black Panther movie exists is fine with me.

There are other ways of ensuring that Wakanda doesn't look like another generic star trek/Bladerunner in terms of aesthetics.
They could have gone with these type of setting if they wanted to go the extra mile but I'm not complaining.

Nice cover.
Pity the BP solo is lumbered with a biased neophyte writer whilst the FF get a solid veteran scribe.
