Originally posted by falafel View PostI saw it last night. I thought it was really well done for a marvel movie. Very original story. Someone from Africa might have an issue with all the faux African accents, and some others might think it was a bit too heavy one the politics at times, but otherwise it was a lot of fun."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

Originally posted by Commando View PostBlack Panther- Again- a comic book movie, so trigger warning to everyone out there. You know who you are. Not too shabby. I think I was the least excited/impressed with it in my group, but then again I had been hearing some crazy hype about it. This movie is about Wakanda, a fictional utopian African nation that is supposedly the epicenter of the Marvel Universe since it sits on a giant deposit of the amazing quasi-supernatural mineral Vibranium- the stuff Cap'n America's shield is made of. Other than that, it felt like its own thing and not very Marvel-y. No cameos by other Marvel characters during the actual film, etc. Andy Serkis plays a heavy in the movie in the flesh and has a fantastic presence-- I'd like to see him do more movies the old fashioned way. He and the guy who played the Hobbit are the only non-black characters of note. Pretty fun movie, overall.
*Sidenotes
-Michael B. Jordan is shredded. I think it must be all that training with Stallone, but he's crazy jacked in this.
-I guess this is the highest grossing movie for opening weekend ever by a black director, and had the second biggest opening weekend of all the Marvel movies so far. Not too bad!

‘Game Night’. Solid comedy. Multiple LOLs were had. The pace was frenetic enough to overlook contrived plot lines. The Denzel Washington side story was hilarious. F- bombs were mostly judiciously spaced out, for those of you who have spouses that care about that.
B+ for me."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

B+ for me.
The movie's trailer gives a good test of whether you'll enjoy the movie--Game Night delivers on the same kind of laughs throughout.

Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.
