Does anyone believe in the Kardashian Curse, and if so, was the Darkhold book involved?

Kwanye is not well. I'm not sure he even understands the things he's saying at this point.

Oh he's quite well, this dude is incredibly smart. He just sold his soul really. he knew trying to get himself more promotion after his current bombs would be difficult. But the fanbase behind Donald Trump is one of the most loyal, rabid, dedicated fanbases in america, if not the world. You literally do whatever you want and as long as you tow the line and your famous? Bam, millions of followers.

I mean Trump knows he's not getting reelected after this. But reelection was never the point. The point was to enter office, make laws and configuration for business men and then enjoy the rewards as his rabid fanbase follows him to his newly built hotels. Kanye is doing the same thing, he's easily the most talked about rapper right now, and his last album sales were great.

So he knows what he's doing, folks needs to stop giving him the benefit of the doubt. He's using the trump method become relevant, and it's working exactly as planned.

No all these dudes were losers before they married Kardashians.

Could be where the amnesia comes into play.

A character who was taken by white people and had his history erased, was put through scientific experiments, and had his mind enslaved so that he was turned into a killing machine to do the bidding of powerful white people... sounds pretty african to me lol

Not if you put him in a town of nothing but white folks ala Flint of the Inhumans.

Or he's adopted by a group to become a weapon like the UNFINISHED plot line from Steel's book before Priest took over or Milestone's Hardware-where Alva took a nerdy black employee and tried to turn him into a killing machine against Hardware.

So what... being generous, he'd be in his low 70's by the time they got a rebooted X film off the ground?

The holocaust is huge but Jews ain't the only ones to be targeted for widespread termination in a horrific way.

The issue with Rwanda is someone will ask WHERE WAS BLACK PANTHER AT? That would be a story for him more than X-Men.

Magneto-what if it was his black grandson? Who was adopted by unnamed Magneto kids-who "vanished" and Magneto raised him? Both go after humanity. get stopped and grandson keeps the fight going while granddaddy is resting.

Why? T'Challa's main focus is Wakanda not Africa as a whole.

Why? T'Challa's main focus is Wakanda not Africa as a whole.

In addition, the movie did show him carrying out some activity in Africa (taking out the Boko Haram guys at the beginning in Northern Nigeria).

Exactly.

Wakanda wouldn't give two poops about Rwanda or anyplace else in Africa or the entire world.

That was the whole point of the movie.... lol

I took it as Nakia gathering information on them as a potential threat to Wakanda. Considering they seemed to have spies all over.

Gathering information on the outside world just in case they are a threat but otherwise leaving it alone.

T'challa just decided to beat their ass because of a crush lol

Note that CERN reacted quickly about this, see eg the Guardian: 'Physics was built by men': Cern suspends scientist over remarks.

Moviewise, post-Killmonger T'Challa would most likely care about Rwanda.

[Carabas]

Moviewise, post-Killmonger T'Challa would most likely care about Rwanda.

Post-Killmonger T'Challa wasn't around during Rwanda, and pre-Killmonger T'Challa was about at most 5 when it happened.

Maybe.

care and helping are two different things though. i don't even know how you would help something like that. Can you really march into a sovereign nation and declare yourself savior? Things get slipppery real quick and how do you choose to police which nation when? there is terrible **** happening all over the place.

Tchalla: "Our weapons will not be used to wage war on the world. It is not our way to be judge, jury and executioner for people who aren't our own."

Killmonger: "Not your own? Didn't life start here on this continent? So ain't all people your people?"

T'challa: "I am not king of all people. I am king of Wakanda. And it is my responsibility to make sure that our people are safe.

I sometimes feel like people romanticize Wakanda a bit much in thinking this tiny little nation could fix all these problems everywhere.

I always thought T'challa reaction to Niganda in Hudlin's run was telling. After Killmonger got killed (again), Nigandans asked him if he would really share Wakanda's wealth or whatver. And T'challa said they would teach them to help themselves.

This movie looks so cool
