There's an African proverb that really fits this movie. "The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth"
Gee... how did the 2nd movie end?
You are legend bro
My favorite moment of acting in this movie is “You were wrong! All of you were wrong!” That gives me chills every time. The Ancestral Planes music in this movie is so beautiful too.
It was my favorite as well :)
Rest In Peace Chadwick 🙏
I think one of the most depressing scenes in this film, that hardly no one talks about when Erik doesn't even react to seeing his Dad in The Ancestral Plane, no joy, no crying, nothing just wrath, one can see in N'Jobu's eyes, the shame and guilt he has knowing he had a hand in turning his son into this.
I think it's interesting how even T'Challa's father isnt purely the best father. He too like Odin tried hiding his dirty past. Shows how not holding ourselves accountable when hurting others can have very negative consequences
As soon as Killmonger shows up, you immediately feel his vibes
"The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth.” -African Proverb"
Truly fits Killmonger. He's not a villain, he was just left to defend for himself. I believe if he was taken back to Wakanda all of this conflict could've been solved over a conversation. Erik is right but he's learned the worse lessons from the worst places.
Just imagine if he given the resources and care from people that loved him what he would've became??
No he is a villain. Just because his motivations are correct doesn't make his methods any less villainous. A lot of horrible people have done terrible things because they have suffered. Hurt people hurt people. You are right a conversation could've solved all of this, but he learned all the wrong lessons throughout his life. I mean he literally uses the tactics he learned while in a colonizer's military to set himself up. He removed the current leader, and destroyed the flowers with the purpose of preventing anyone from challenging him directly. I'd argue that he is a scaled down Thanos.
Fun fact: In the comics T'Chala has an older brother named Hunter (white guy) who also goes by the moniker of White Wolf he leads the dogs of war, wakandian military police. And Black Panthers wife in the comics is Storm from the X men.
2:22 Mark! Howdy! 🤠 Nice introduction from you two! 👌
But anyway, oops! That asteroid became a meteor once it was in our atmosphere and only became a meteorite after it was embedded in the ground. 😁
I can’t believe we’re about to be at infinity war!!!
it would take 2 months atleast knowing how inconsistent the uploads are
Hmmm…We’ve never taken 2 months between marvel uploads. I can remind you how many days are in a month if needed, dear “chosen one.” ❤️
@@MegMageReacts sure. Take it literally. It wouldn't change the fact that it took yall 26 days from Ragnarok to upload Black Panther lol. I mean, it sucks cause yall are great reactors but from what started as a once a week thing, it explains the drastic fall off of views 🤷
@@chosenone4648 Except our views & subs keep growing for both channels! And we're uploading a Marvel TV series (Daredevil). Speak for yourself and your feelings, but most people recognize we're human, stretched thin, and we're also providing lots of other content options for our community.
@@MegMageReacts marvel is woke trash after end game they ruin loki thor all chacter new black pather moive is trash failat box office becouse it's m- she- u with woke politic ATI white person stuff betas male and that you should not watch anymore after end game
Fun Fact: The majority of the cast of this film called Serkis and Martin Freeman, the Tolkien White Guys, clever, lol.
Nakia and Steve Rogers from winter share the same ideology in regards to what Wakanda would be like and America should be like
One of my favourite Marvel movies right here. It's superb! 🖤
(btw, I've been bingeing your react vids all week, so apologies if I keep popping up in your comments! 😅)
One of my favorite scenes was Killmonger's museum scene because before watching this movie I never realized how important it was for our people to have access to our culture. And for those masks, spears & other African artifacts to be behind a glass case for display is disrespectful to our ancestors.
The kicker is if any native Africans ever tried to reclaim them, the people who own the museum would say "finders keepers, it's mine now".
We first saw Ulysses Klaue in Avengers Age of Ultron Meg, so yes you did see him before
WAKANDA forever!
Imagine if tchaka had adopted Eric instead instead of leave him and help raise him to be a half American half Wakandan prince
Hey, Meg and Caleb! "Black Panther" is an important film. "Civil War" remains my favorite, "Winter Soldier" is, arguably, the best and "Guardians of the Galaxy" is cited as the most popular but the cultural and historical significance of this chapter in the saga cannot be denied. While all audiences marveled at the revelation of Wakanda, African-Americans, in particular, underwent a profoundly cathartic experience witnessing the potential of Afro-futurism dressed in the trappings of a popular entertainment that was both a Shakespearean family tragedy and a Robert Ludlum-esque espionage thriller!
While a handful of non-caricatured supporting black characters existed like Howling Commando Gabriel Jones from Marvel's World War II comic "Sgt. Fury" portrayed by Derek Luke in "The First Avenger", T'Challa aka Black Panther is the first ever black superhero! As editor, Stan Lee had encouraged the staff since 1963 to include people of color in crowd scenes to better reflect reality, but, when Jack Kirby presented him with the design of a new superhero called Coal Tiger, Lee consciously made the groundbreaking decision to greenlight the character. Inspired by the 14th-century Mali Empire Sultan Mansa Musa and controversial Pan-African activist Marcus Garvey, Lee and Kirby boldly crafted a figure who was a monarch, a scientist and a costumed adventurer. Inspired by a 1950s Australian comic book jungle hero called The Panther, the co-creators changed their character's moniker to its present form predating the Black Panther Party's use of the name by just a few months. Stan and Jack introduced T'Challa in 1966 in "Fantastic Four" 52-53 wherein Marvel's First Family was defeated by this mysterious new player proving he could match wits with elastic Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic, Marvel's greatest intellect, and equal the strength of rocky Ben Grimm aka The Thing, one of Marvel's powerhouses! T'Challa is undone when the four coordinate against him but then he explains that he lured them to Wakanda to test his mettle against the best in the world so he could know he was truly prepared to avenge his father's death by confronting his nemesis, Ulysses Klaw. In the comics, Klaw killed T'Chaka while stealing vibranium and young T'Challa robbed Klaw of his arm but, in the MCU, Klaue's arm was taken by Ultron in "Age of Ultron" and T'Chaka was killed by Zemo in "Civil War". Misunderstanding resolved, the heroes help each other. The Panther comes to the US afterwards, guest stars in a four-issue run of "Captain America" and is recruited by Cap to join the ranks of "The Avengers" in 1968 for 72 issues during which M'Baku, The Man-Ape, debuted in 1969. In "Jungle Action", written by Don McGregor and illustrated by Gil Kane, the Panther returns to Wakanda to face a claimant to his throne: N'Jadaka aka Erik Killmonger! This epic run from 1973 - '76 remains a critically acclaimed saga titled 'Panther's Rage' and serves as the basis for the movie. The next storied run of Panther tales were written by Christopher Priest and illustrated by Mark Texeira in 1998 for 62 dark and gritty issues which introduced the Dora Milaje and State Department attorney Everett Ross who is re-framed as a CIA agent in the MCU. The Panther's all-female bodyguard have their historical basis in the warrior women of the 17th-century Kingdom of Dahomey now known as the Republic of Benin in West Africa. The subsequent run of Panther comics in 2005 written by filmmaker Reginald Hudlin and illustrated by John Romita, Jr. introduced Shuri who eventually assumes the title of Panther herself. It was during this period that T'Challa wed Ororo Munroe aka Storm of the X-Men, one of Marvel's most celebrated unions!
Director Ryan Coogler, known for the searing "Fruitvale Station" and the thrilling stealth-"Rocky" sequel, "Creed", was picked to helm the production. The end result was exotic, emotional and exciting! One week after "Civil War", we follow the young prince as he assumes the mantle of kingship by undergoing ritual combat, pursues justice against an enemy of the state and contends with a fateful usurpation of his throne. The film globetrots from Los Angeles to London to Busan but the principal setting is fictitious Wakanda, a wondrous civilization of flying air ships and bleeding edge technology hidden from the world by a cloaking field. A massive vibranium meteorite is the source of their high-tech wizardry but what makes Wakanda a Shangri-La of sorts is that the natural world has been woven into the fabric of society rather than sacrificed on the altar of progress as exhibited by the architecture of the capital, Birnin Zana, whose skyscrapers are accented with rustic design elements such as thatched rondavels and wooden posts studding the facades. There is also a spirituality to the culture such as communion with former Panthers in a savannah-like astral plane achieved via a psychotropic herb.
The large cast is comprised mostly of actors of African heritage including some major names continuing the pattern of attracting top talent to Marvel productions. Already introduced in "Civil War", Chadwick Boseman returns as T'Challa aka Black Panther bringing the same compassion, thoughtfulness and dignity to his new role as monarch of Wakanda replacing his late father, King T'Chaka, played by John Kani, who was killed in the same movie but returns as a spirit in this one for some emotionally wrenching interaction with his son. T'Challa's living family includes Angela Bassett as stern but proud Queen Mother Ramonda and Letitia Wright as playful but brilliant Princess Shuri, a scientist who heads a Q-like division that outfits the Panther with state-of-the-art tech. Known as the deadly Michonne from "The Walking Dead", Danai Gurira gives a commanding performance as the fierce Okoye, head of the Dora Milaje. The reliably excellent Forest Whitaker plays Zuri, head priest and shamanic counselor who harbors a shameful Royal secret. The ravishing Lupita Nyong'o plays Nakia, childhood sweetheart to T'Challa and a covert agent of Wakanda quietly intervening against the ravages of tribalism and colonialism in Africa. Winston Duke plays M'Baku aka The Man-Ape in a charismatic performance as Jabari Tribe chieftain and challenger to the throne. Daniel Kaluuya of "Get Out" plays W'Kabi, Border Tribe commander, rhino wrangler, Okoye's beau and T'Challa's childhood friend who has an axe to grind against Ulysses Klaue, the South African mercenary and vibranium thief introduced in "Age of Ultron". Played again by Andy Serkis, the unsavory lout returns with a powerful sonic cannon appendage in lieu of the arm Ultron severed! Michael B. Jordan plays antagonist N'Jadaka aka Erik 'Killmonger' Stevens in a tour de force of righteous indignation and bitter rage. Cousin to T'Challa and forgotten son of Wakanda, he forces the new king to confront the sins of his father and the moral failure of his nation with a blistering final declaration that remains the MCU's most impactful. Sterling K. Brown of TV's "This Is Us" plays N'Jobu, T'Chaka's brother, whose opposition to Wakandan isolationism nearly sows the seeds of his homeland's undoing. Better known as Bilbo Baggins of "The Hobbit" films and Dr. Watson of the modern-dress "Sherlock", Martin Freeman returns from "Civil War" as CIA Agent Everett Ross along with Florence Kasumba as the Dora Milaje Ayo who challenged Black Widow. Two character actors play tribal elders: Isaach de Bankole is the River Tribe chieftain with the lip plate and Danny Sapani of TV's "Halo" is the Border Tribe chieftain. In bit parts, Nabiyah Be plays Killmonger's ruthless lover, the doomed Linda, Alexis Rhee plays the casino's sly frontwoman, Sophia, and Atandwa Kani, John Kani's actual son, plays the young T'Chaka. Sebastian Stan has a surprise cameo as James Buchanan 'Bucky' Barnes aka The Winter Soldier. Comedian Trevor Noah, "The Daily Show" host, voices Griot, the remote pilot operating system named after the African term for an oral storyteller.
TRIVIA:
1. Instead of rhinos, massive Clydesdale horses were used on set to interact with the performers as their surprisingly similar gaits made their digital replacement easier!
2. Ludwig Goransson's score was the first superhero film score to be nominated for an Academy Award since John Williams' score for "Superman" in 1978!
3. Martin Freeman and Andy Serkis both starred in "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" together so the crew took to jokingly calling them 'the Tolkien white guys'. Lol.
4. The scenes in Oakland, CA were actually filmed in Atlanta, GA near Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s burial site. His daughter visited the set to bless the project.
EASTER EGGS:
1. The nanite Panther suit is an innovation from Ta-Nehisi Coates' more recent 2010s run.
2. The horned mask Killmonger steals from the museum is a reference to a similar mask he wore in a duel with T'Challa during Reginald Hudlin's early 2000s comic run.
3. The 'White Wolf' moniker used for Bucky is a reference to a white character named Hunter from Christopher Priest's late 1990s comic run who was adopted by King T'Chaka as a child later to become the head of Wakanda's secret police known as the Hatut Zeraze!
CAMEO:
1. Stan Lee appears as a slick gambler in the underground Busan casino who scoops up the chips T'Challa leaves behind for 'safe-keeping'.
END-CREDIT SCENES:
1. After delivering an inspirational speech at the UN about illusory divisions and shared commonalities, T'Challa states Wakanda's intent to share its resources with the world.
2. Bucky Barnes is awoken by children and emerges from a thatched hut by a lake to be met by Shuri who asks about his health and informs him he has much to learn.
The next chronological stop in the MCU is "Spider-Man: Homecoming" set two months after "Civil War" followed by the "Agents of SHIELD: Slingshot" web series.
I love that she's worrying about andy serkis monopolizing the monkey business
I love how cultural the whole film feels & it’s jsut good writing overall & symbolism is 👌. Cool to see how the Wakandons operate miss you Chadwick :(
I love the different approaches with Thor's inauguration as king vs T'Challa's and Loki vs Killmonger's ascension to the throne. Loki was trying to kill all the ice giants in the first thor to gain Odin's approval to finally be worth of being an odinson. Killmonger also tries committing genocide to not gain approval of his father who told him the truth unlike Odin BUT rather to try to heal his inner inferiority complex he developed being raised in a ghetto. He wanted revenge against those he felt hurt by from the Wakandans to white people but much like Loki that was an unhealthy way of healing through his trauma
People felt bad for Kilmonger, and yes he was dealt a bad hand...but after him killing women...f that guy.
He had a great send off speech, but he didn't deserve any sympathy. He was an extremist. A flip card of Hitler.
Now Nakia gave T'challa the idea to share their technology with the world before Eric Kilmonger, but T'challa wasn't convinced until he was threatened.
Although it was a noble idea at the mid credit scene to go back to the U.N., in retrospect of what happens after, maybe his father and ancestors were right.
The same type of people in history that ravaged the rich natural resources of Africa, including its people, still exists in the world.
So, was it a good idea to share that information about their resources with the U.N.?
Stolen Vibranium was already being sold on the black market for decades. Howard Stark bought some off the black market back in WW2 and made Steve his Captain America shield out of it. So, if the world leaders know you have an abundance left, what do you think some of them will do to get it?
This movie was definitely a cultural phenomenon. People in African countries, European countries, and some Asian countries made it a global event.
You can see videos of premieres of how decked out they made the event and how people dressed up in amazing outfits for it. Amazingly beautiful and creative.
The second movie, without spoiling anything for you, was a very somber movie.
It will have you in your feels during the opening credits alone.
You could feel the emotion of the actors because to them, they lost a good friend. The performances were outstanding, and I commend all of them, the crew and Ryan Coogler for coming back and really making it a labor of love to Chadwick's memory.
There is a lot of toxic hatred being thrown around this movie because Ryan and the studio chose not to recast BP. There are people, both men and women...mostly men, who hate that this movie was carried by mostly black women. They bs about it's a "woke" film ( it's bs how they give recognition and representation a negative connotation with that word).
I'm like, it's everyone left behind that had to pick up the pieces, band together to protect their nation. Wtf is wrong with that?!
The toxic mindset is the reason why the second film didn't break the record of the first one, imo.
But regardless of what you hear about it through social media, it deserves a watch so that you can decide for yourself.
It is beautifully acted, written and directed. My only critique is that the drawn out silent moments could have been cut down in editing a little bit.
Killmongers tragic life doesn't excuse him for the lives he's taken and waging war on the people that had nothing to do with his trauma
No one excused it lol...
M'baku is perhaps my favorite character in this film next to Shuri. He loves his country too oioe T'Challa. But oike killmonger he and his tribe have not been a part of the success of Wakanda living a more traditional life. From his pov he sees the king's son unchallenged to become king despite being his dad's bodyguard and having him killed along with a child in charge of their science division, the kings daughter. From his pov Wakanda is giving into corrupt nepotism that's unable to protect Wakanda. He honors Wakanda's traditions and laws though choosing to fairly challenge and then quit to lead his tribe. He and his people are vegetarians and help Wakanda establish a king who respects their traditions and laws but does not want his tribe dying to fight wars for a king he feel hasn't proven worth fighting for. Shuri is amazing much
Hey, Meg and Caleb! You have an option at this point to see "ANT-MAN AND THE WASP" which occurs chronologically a week BEFORE "Avengers: Infinity War" so long as you AVOID the TWO END-CREDIT SCENES as you did with "Black Widow". This reduces the interval between "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Avengers: Endgame" to just one movie, "Captain Marvel". Having to slog through two whole movies between the epic finales tried the patience of many when these movies were being released and you can minimize that angst if you wish. If not, just continue in release order. Either way works.
Remember, the END-CREDIT SCENES for "Ant-Man and the Wasp" are meant to be seen AFTER "Avengers: INFINITY WAR" and
the END-CREDIT SCENE for "Black Widow" can safely be seen AFTER "Avengers: ENDGAME" although it's more appropriate for AFTER "Falcon and the Winter Soldier".
Have you guys had any luck tracking down your reaction footage for "SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING" because I'd love to see it! I'm sure others would, too!
I don't know if either of you know this or not, but in the comics, T'Challa married Storm from the X-Men
I do wonder what a Hela and killmonger dynamic would be like?
The biggest problem with killmonger's ideology unlike Loki is he used revenge and hurt it learn to destroy what hurt him. He joined the CIA and learned to destabilize nations. So when he became king of Wakanda ge only had spent all this time learning to destroy but never to rebuild. Loki learned to hide and mask his feekings and indulge himself to help mask his pain so he became king posing as Odin and just brought a new artistic age to Asgard with sculptures and theater etc
Love this movie, and how it shows the strength of female warriors. Also, what breed of dogs are your pups?
great reaction..please do Infinity War sooooooonnnnn!!! can't wait!!!
It's like the ol saying goes "Not my Serkis? Not my monkeys!"
Man, I love your reactions! Can I ask you guys a favour though when it comes to Infinity War? Please split your reaction into 2 parts. It's a long movie with lots of characters and storylines, and I'm not sure it's possible to do the movie justice with a single 30 minute reaction. Cheers 😊
Andy serkis also played golem in LOTR series. He is basically the OG of motion captures
Glory to Hanumanji 🙏🏻
How
i think you forgot to watch Spider-Man: Homecoming which came out before Thor: Ragnarok
Howdy! They had already seen Homecoming before they started the MCU React series. She posted an update a day or two ago saying that she will be uploading a scuffed version of their reaction to it since it was a rewatch (they didn’t think people were interested in a rewatch reaction, but there’s been a ton of interest in reactions even if they are rewatches).
@@Rendezvous22 ok thank you for letting me know
31:21 Meg, she’s 17
Oh no I take it back
I always wondered why, after such a big cliffhanger for AVENGERS 3 (which everyone's been eagerly waiting for), why they decided to put this movie in between... And then i saw the directors commentary for Infinity War where they said:
"The idea basically was, if you ever have a major, MAJOR threat going on on Earth, there's no better place in the world you would wanna be facing said threat than WAKANDA."
But Black Panther came before Avengers 3
You meant avengers 2
Becouse infinity war is avengers 3
28:00 😱 you guys should react to the 2 sonic movies! Idk if you guys saw them already
"That could've been us!!!"
Damn... easy on that koolaid... 😂🤣😭
nah, i'm only into first time reactions. good film though.
Hey, could you react to Waltz with Bashir? It's an incredible animated movie.
7:53 then you obviously haven't seen NOPE some of the best monkey acting I've seen.
you guys need to watch Andor if you want to see some of Andy Serkis' best acting, period. And some of, quite frankly, the best star wars ever.
Also there's a black panther video game coming, set in WW2 with Captain America.
also also, please react to andor if you do watch it.
WAKANDA FOREVER is a great movie where everyone from this movie has a very different story and watching them go through everything was a great thing to see
NAMOR IS the new best villan
most overrated movie ever.
Well it's post you all seen positive things about wakanda forever but truthfully it's mixed bc there's good parts but there's also not good things of it too so it's not life changing or a perfect movie it's just an alright movie
This movie is stealing KJV Bible references. NEAR THE MOVIE'S END "KILLMONGER" GIVES A HINT OF TRUTH MENTIONING SLAVE SHIPS. The same people Moses freed from Egypt that never had Egyptian names are the same people enslaved from West Africa in SHIPS. Deuteronomy 28:68 says this. And those enslaved are Hebrew Israelites that are from Jerusalem hanging out in Africa. The world made a plan to remove Hebrew Israelites from their IDENTITY through generational reconditioning. Psalms 83:4 Explains why blacks think that they are Africans. "All skin folks ain't kinfolks."
