Locked BLACK PANTHER Thread V.2 (First Critics' Reviews)

[method115]

I mean the arm would be ready and he would be mowin through fools to get to it. He was frozen not because of the lack of arm, but because his mind was still prone to being taken over

Yea I just feel like it would be better if they already have the arm on him instead of fighting to get to it. Maybe BP brings the arm to him.

 

[Magooglie]

its the best storyline to start with -- Killmonger arc really takes place in wakanda -- the battle for control and such.

just wish marvel didnt screw up Mandarin already.

You should watch the All Hail The King one shot from Marvel

 

[76Knockout]

Super excited, i really hope Bucky is in it and gets to finally redeem himself and do some heroic things with BP. Both of their fighting styles are awesome to watch, a team up even if only a brief part of the movie would be awesome.

 

[Rob Battisti]

I think civil war really tried to highlight the differences in fighting styles. Hopefully this movie does the same. No one likes repetitive punch punch kick.

PERSON OF INTEREST's Winston Duke to Play M'Baku in BLACK PANTHER

Person of Interest actor Winston Duke has landed the key role of the villain M’Baku — aka Man-Ape — in Marvel’s upcoming Black Panther film starring Chadwick Boseman.

The film, directed by Creed helmer Ryan Coogler, also stars Michael B. Jordan, Danai Gurira, and Lupita Nyong’o. Boseman will play T’Challa, the prince of the African nation of Wakanda, who must take over the mantel after his father’s murder. Marvel unveiled the character in Captain America: Civil War before the standalone film bows on Feb. 16, 2018.

In the comics, M’Baku was one of Wakanda’s most powerful warriors and one of T’Challa’s biggest rivals.

Joe Robert Cole is co-penning the script with Coogler. Kevin Feige is producing the movie.

Marvel had been testing several actors for the role over the past week, including The Get Down actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, before casting Duke. Duke is relatively new to the industry, having recently graduated from the Yale School of Drama. He had recurring roles on several TV shows, including Major Crimes, The Messengers, and Person of Interest.

Comments: Having seen him in Person of Interest, Winston Duke certainly has the stature and physique for the M'Baku role.

 

[Thai Otoshi]

He was honestly one of the best things about that ho hum season 4.

Sure, he was no Elias, but he brought a quiet strength to his role.

[MMA since 1993]

Gotta say. It sounds alright. But we'll see

 

[One MMA Fan]

This movie will be so dark.

 

[Mike]

This is probably going to be pretty good. Marvel has really been firing on all cylinders. I enjoyed Black Panther in Civil War. He's a great character, and with any luck this will end up being like the Captain America movies.

 

[NightwingBJJ]

This movie will be so dark.

 

[MMA since 1993]

This movie will be so dark.

LMFAO!!!

That was good!

 

[Mike]

Also after reading through the thread, lol at people that have a problem with a black superhero getting a movie with a black supporting cast. He's from an african nation ffs.

 

[NightwingBJJ]

I might see this movie, but not in theaters.

I want to actually be able to hear the movie.

Is that a black joke?

 

[NightwingBJJ]

I finally have a superhero I can dress like for Halloween.

 

[MMA since 1993]

That chick that almost fought Scarlett (in civil war).. I wanna see her in action.

 

[Jellis31]

The cast is looking solid. MBJ, Lupita, and Forest are a pretty nice supporting cast. This was one of the Marvel movies I wasn't excited for, and still aren't, but hopefully it won't be Thor levels of awful.

 

[Organic Damage]

That chick that almost fought Scarlett (in civil war).. I wanna see her in action.

Yeah that was a great throwaway scene.

Forrest Whitaker busting out that Idi Amin accent again, nice.

Is it just me, or does anyone else want to see Wesley Snipes play a villain in this one?

I'd pay good money to watch Forest Whitaker read a newspaper.

 

[CutStryker]

Just hope it's not too CGI heavy
