They’ll still be underpaid. Terrance Howard wanted more money for his role and Marvel kicked him to the curve. If anything, rich white Marvel execs will say black panther made those actors and not the other way around.
I don’t have to do anything. Facts are facts. Adjust the ranking with inflation and you’ll get a more accurate picture. Not that BP will matter when the upcoming Avengers blows it out the water.
Or just go to Box Office Mojo, and they will even give you a ticket count. Titanic's original run sold 128,000 tickets. Black Panther is 75,000 tickets sold.
The other thing being that once Killmonger showed up, you got the impression T'Challa was never going to be able to hand him his ass in a fair fight.
True T'Challa got his ass handed to him without the Black Panther magic. I feel T'Challa's mom should have been involved in the last fight and somehow got herself and Killmonger killed.

Which just points out the absurdity--not explained away by any rationale that can be called sensible--of a nation as advanced as Wakanda supposedly is settling leadership by physical combat. The idea is stupid enough to be offensive.
Finally watched it last night it was good but listening to all the hype I expected more. Same thing for Jurassic Park heard and read all the hype and meh.
Yup, the movie is solid but the overrated hype makes it disappointing.
You go in expecting to see the Dark Knight or Winter soldier, you come out realizing you've been bamboozled.

T'Challa is a spoiled royalty boy
Killmonger is a U.s. trained soldier who lost his father at a young age and grew up impoverished. In real life, Killmonger wins 10 times out of 10.

It's hilariously insulting. "He guys look at this wealthy highly advanced black nation, oops, it's all fake and we won't waste our time shooting any real life scenes of any African country. But we'll shoot scenes in London and Seoul, without CGI.

I'm ok with the concept of fighting for leadership in Wakanda, but make the fight realistic, unpredictable, and exciting to make up for such a predictable concept.
A CGI waterfall doesn't make for a compelling fight scene location. T'challa should've gotten his butt beat every single time he tried to fight someone without the suit, he's a royalty boy, everyone he fought in the water fall was either much larger or had way more experience and way more to gain from the fight.
The domesticated rhinos and lack of vehicles bothered me. A highly advanced society and a domesticated rhino is your way of transportation and warfare?
Currently at 696 mill... I'm wondering if Panther will squeeze out 700 mill.
The DVD is out on May 15.
