Black Panther Appreciation 2019

[Marvell2100]

I actually liked Endgame quite a lot. Even more than Infinity War to some extent. It had some of the best moments in the MCU and has some of the best shots as well.

Top 5 MCU Movie for me easy.

Endgame gave us the greatest Cap moment, the greatest Iron Man moment, the greatest Big Three moment, the greatest Avengers moment we've seen in quite some time all in one movie.

"Steve, on your left." Who didn't feel some kind of isht in that moment. Awesome.

@MoS,

If we met in person it might go something like this...





ATTENTION PEOPLE...


After you flirt around with all the Bowflex's, the Total Gyms and all those "four easy payments of $49.95 and you can have tight abs too" apparatuses thingamajigs don't neglect the good old fashioned squat rack!

Endgame has arguably the best 3rd act in the MCU if not comicbook history.

The first two acts are just solid to good. Story telling is meh, but the Russos know how to deliever.

Right now Black Panther's 3rd act has been a sticking point since its release. Where its solid enough fo us to ruin the movie unforunately it did for others. To the point where this great movie didn't give it the epic conclusion it deserved.

We can't start talking about Coogler handling an event film until he's shown he can handle a basic 3rd act of a solo comicbook movie.

Also have to realize that Coogler is more for realism over style at times. Russos know how to give us those epic superhero shots on screen. Its why Black Panther is so GIF worthy in Civil War and not as much in BP.

Coogler's learning and probably studied up on the last couple of Russo films though. I'm confident for the sequel because he's an expert story teller and great with characters. However, lets wait before we talk Avengers stuff. Don't want him facing backlash for delivering the action fans now expect.

Wait...


Are those forty five pound plates or is that cgi?


It's amazing what one can do with Photoshop... (har har)


At some of the bodybuilding gyms they have 100 pound plates which can be a serious hazard to the big toe if one does not know how to hold them properly when exchanging the weights!


I am long overdue for a return to the Mr. Olympia in Las Vegas you should see the powerlifting competitions up close... The bench press record is at 1000 pounds (plus) talk about peak human enhanced!


The Smith Machine/squat rack is always a great setup for spotting without a spotter just make sure to set the safety bar not so low as to have the bar crushing your sternum in case you reach muscle failure or strain a pec during the lifting phase!


Same rule applies for squatting so that wifey doesn't find you folded up in a pretzel because you slipped on a random banana peel set there by a diabolical fiend...


Here is one of my certifying instructors (when he was at NASM) Tom Purvis explaining the pros and cons of squats in better detail... He also the guy seen in those early Bowflex infomercials!





Note: The original Bowflex was invented by an Ethiopian


I am preparing sports specifics workouts with my son for future super heroes so stay tuned!

It was decent. Maybe if it were three issues and deleted the BP angle it would have been better.

I think some of us may have forgotten we're still getting MCU BP stuff in Phase 4 with the Marvel What If...? animated series, which we know will feature Michael B Jordan as Killmonger and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther returning to voice-act their roles.

I've seen a lot of interest for the What If...? regarding Black Panther, particularly stuff like "What if Killmonger won?" or "What if T'Chaka never abandoned N'Jadaka?" or "What if T'Challa refused to open Wakanda to the rest of the world?" Even though the series itself is something most people aren't talking about, Black Panther is still perhaps the most talked about topic within the series.

Goes to show you how consequential the film actually feels.
