Production
- As difficult as it might be for the cast and crew, I'd love if they shot some scenes for other African countries to be in those countries. I think it'll just be a good image if it was shot there. I'm not sure about doing Wakanda there since they've got that covered with principle photography and sets, but it'll still be great.
- Largely keep the same production crew from the first movie, but I am open to changing the fight coordinator. According to Chadwick Boseman's trainer, Marrese Crump,
Chadwick is capable of a whole lot more as a martial artists than we saw in the movie. Let the beast out. I would like to see more stylish actions scenes with intense performances. Give me stuff like
this,
this, that twelve minute prison sequence in DD season 3, and
this. Undeniably the best fight scenes in BP were the ones that fit Coogler's sensibilities (forest, tribal and casino fights) so I want him to stick to stuff like that. Plus, give me longer takes, dynamic camera movements and angles, and less cutting. I also wouldn't mind if Marrese Crump is the new fight choreography since he had a very good relationship with Chadwick.
- Keep the CGI replacement models at a minimum. I don't really see the point of creating a suit that's clearly practical enough for an actor move around in it and is also damn gorgeous, and then replacing it with a damn ugly CGI model. I can understand adding CGI effects on the suit in post, but I have no idea why Marvel still does this practice. Let the craftsmanship of the suit shine through and only replace it when a very impossible stunt needs to be pulled off. No need to replace it when Chadwick is just walking.
- In relation to the above, let the post production process be given enough time. Late reshoots should not be ordered and really, let Coogler take the time he needs making this movie as your new golden child. Clean up those special effects and edits.
- The new BP suit should be modelled to be a stealth suit or stealth upgrade. In addition I want it to be established that the suit is a collaboration between T'Challa and Shuri, merging their traditional warrior and futurist ideas into a new suit (to symbolise Wakanda's tradition and futurism merging together). The new suit being a stealth suit, should be fitted with technology that we haven't seen in the MCU before. Camouflage, soundless/sound absorption tech, energy daggers/tech capable of stunning goons, gas grenades etc. High tech spy stuff.
- I also want to see T'Challa's enhanced senses be emphasised in this film to fit into the covert stuff. That's one disappointment I had in the first movie. T'Challa should use these senses to spy, infiltrate, read people etc.
- Nakia should bring her spy work heavily to the table so we can see what War Dogs are capable of. I wouldn't mind if she got a costume for spy missions too.
- Also emphasise T'Challa's training in diplomacy and strategy and the conflict should be a game of chess of sorts.
