I can honestly say the moment I saw Winston Duke in the first Black Panther movie I so happy they didn't stick him in a giant gorilla suit. This man singlehandedly improved the character in every way.
I wouldn’t mind seeing him in a version of the white gorilla. If he gets ahold of a synthetic heart shaped herb which grants him gorrila powers instead of bp powers.
They did do him some much needed justice in the film. Now supposedly there’s supposed to be a Disney+ series that will focus on Wakanda. Here’s hoping that M’Baku and the Jabari have prominent feature time there.
I think the fact that the MCU has adopted Hanuman as the ape spirit they worship (Hanuman is a white ape and god of strength in Hundu Mythology) and now that he's not an antagonist they can totally give him more superpowers to make him on par with the Black Panthers as an ally. Though I would definitely leave the fuzzy gorilla suit in the past I think it wouldn't hurt to spice up his present outfit and give him something to substitute the name Man-Ape which makes him out to be like a crazy guy in animal themed persona like The Rhino or Man Bat, which suits him in the past but it undermines his more noble depiction in the MCU. I wonder if the comics are trying to revamp him to be like the movies. Personally I think some type of armor + strength enhancement like the heart shaped herb Wakanda has would be perfect.
I might be a little biased, as I have not read the comics, but just like Aquaman and Namor , I prefer the movie version, as the comics version feels too old fashioned. I would like to see mbaku take the herb and get super strong. Hopefully they change that part about him killing a gorilla, as I hate cruelty to animals . New mbaku is a hindu 🕉 and a vegetarian, so I don't think that would be something he would do anyway. It's not in his character.
Thanks for the background on this character, however I must disagree with the name "Man-Ape" is too cool. I'm sure the creators weren't being disrespectful (though I'm sure black folks might believe otherwise) the original versions has a much more menacing look & title!!
What about White Ape? Silverback? Man ape really does associate him with like a crazy animal guy antagonist like Man Bat or Killer Croc... if he's gonna be revamped for the modern world and as a good guy I'd like to see him be more dignified somehow but not be a pushover.
“If you think the comic book version of M’Baku is better than the MCU version, I’m gonna need your weed hook up.” Welp, this statement didn’t age well because Disney turned the MCU version of M’Baku into a joke. 🙄
when ever new wrighter or artist take over kind set back start begging. so example in head wright own comics draw silly Charlie Brown style then get better at do more realistic art style. flesh story at moment. in that idea sense man ape going show up again and again just like when ever hear make spider man movie think o god have green goblin again or if going new batman think o god there do another joker. they have lots villains like see on screen.

I was so disappointed.......man ape the white gorilla was my favorite villain as a kid.
I agree
Nah
They did do him some much needed justice in the film. Now supposedly there’s supposed to be a Disney+ series that will focus on Wakanda. Here’s hoping that M’Baku and the Jabari have prominent feature time there.
May as well be guaranteed to be honest
A TV SERIES, you mean?
Yeah it’s supposed to be about bashenga and the wakandas who lifestyle was like that of “Babylon” or “Ancient Egypt”
Appreciate the deep dives into the supporting Black Panther characters. Glory to Hanuman *in Winston Duke voice*
M'baku needs cameos in phase 5 movies! He's too charismatic to limit him to just BP movies
I gotta feeling we definitely gonna see more of 👑 m'baku in phase 5
Man ape

This guys strength was Kingpin level (Classic 60s Spider-Man Era, not Daredevil era)
People don’t know. He was a beast in h2h combat.
Bro I want Mbaku to be black panther next. Imagine a 6'5 240 + black panther that's serious but can crack jokes
If Black Panthar was filmed in the early late 90's-2000's Shaq could've been M'Baku imo.
SHAQ can’t act for shit
No please.

Learned of him because of his first appearance in the first one now refreshing my memory!
im so glad the films gave his character more depth

What if he get the power's of Hanuman in MCU 💪❣️
"Power from Hanuman" not "power's of Hanuman" because if he gets power's of Hanuman then he became Most strongest character of Marvel
He needs a power suit in the Mcu
He needs his powers, his suit, and name Man-Ape.
MAEFA!!!! HOOO HOOO!!! MAEFA!!!! HOO HOO!
Run that knowledge #blerducated
Bet the fake marvel fans didn't know that
Only fans because of the movies lol
🤓
Its a cool look and name dont know y people are mad
Nice presentation. Very nice. #salute
Just came across your Chanel while waiting in line on opening day for BP2 and I’m a very happy person
Baron Macabre? Wasn’t he the guy connected to Killmonger?
The MCU did this character right. The original version was racist and you know the rest.
Thanks for the background on this character, however I must disagree with the name "Man-Ape" is too cool. I'm sure the creators weren't being disrespectful (though I'm sure black folks might believe otherwise) the original versions has a much more menacing look & title!!
I think a redesign would be pretty great
I agree with you
No I'm black and I like the name Man-Ape.
It’s Man Ape!
MCU version is the far best!!!
Naw. The original is better
...... y'all know he's king now right?????
Why he doesn’t have his powers in the mcu
He seemed unusually strong for a human in the film, maybe he does
He's shown to be nearly super human
I agree. He’s is extremely depowered for the movies. His agility and strength was enough to fight a fully powered Black Panther constantly.
No hes not dumbass.@@lylatfox4
yibambe!
Bark or Root???
@@byronspears9395 The answer is "yes"
I like MCU mbaku personality better but I want him to get his powers don't need to call him man ape
What about White Ape? Silverback?
Man ape really does associate him with like a crazy animal guy antagonist like Man Bat or Killer Croc... if he's gonna be revamped for the modern world and as a good guy I'd like to see him be more dignified somehow but not be a pushover.
@@kennethsatria6607I actually like Silverback.
Yeah, I’m NOT the biggest fan of this guy in the comics!
I prefer Man-Ape
“If you think the comic book version of M’Baku is better than the MCU version, I’m gonna need your weed hook up.”
Welp, this statement didn’t age well because Disney turned the MCU version of M’Baku into a joke. 🙄
Huh? Mbaku is now king of Wakanda in MCU what do you mean?
🙊
I hate that name too!!!
when ever new wrighter or artist take over kind set back start begging. so example in head wright own comics draw silly Charlie Brown style then get better at do more realistic art style. flesh story at moment. in that idea sense man ape going show up again and again just like when ever hear make spider man movie think o god have green goblin again or if going new batman think o god there do another joker. they have lots villains like see on screen.
He no match for wonder man.
And in this new movie they made him a big Goofy.
Wait for part 3. Mbaku is now king. What could go wrong
No they didn't he's so cool
The comic book version is better - 👴🏻
Agreed, really like the ape suit/skin
I also like that ape suit.
I also wanna say I like it too I just thought it was perfect for that joke
MCU is messing everything up. If the facts of the comics are true he would have gave Namor a good fight!
Man - Ape sucks on film and in the book.
Like always they fucking ruin these Marvel heroes and villains in trash dogshit MCU when Comics, Video Games and Animated Movies/Series do better jobs
