Exactly, he was my favourite character and I don't think I can see the sequels reaching the standards of the first film because he was such a well done and developed villain. He completely stole the show.
@@TheFoolishable nah. He strangled an old lady and shot his girl to save himself. When that's your hero, your a villain. Great character, well played, respectable backstory, villain just the same.
Id rather them do that than force a sequel, keep everything original, one of the big things about the movie is that it went against expectations, you keep them alive and well, things CAN become pretty obvious where theyre going
They killed other villains in the MCU, and I want to see his other villains like Brother Voodoo and the secret society that wants to abolish the monarchy.
@@carlocordova9238 Read the comics preferably the early Marvel TPB story....He not really bad guy he just has the wrong way about going at things....like they kinda did in the movie.
Charles Baylor lmao ya dont think theres any white people that worked on this two lmaoo this movie had to be passed by all those white guys at disney and marvle
*Rob, it would be nice if you responded to comments for the first three or four hours of your posts on a regular basis. It would give people more of an incentive to keep subscribed. Also, update your videos before posting because this is a couple weeks old and the movie is out!!! No comments on the movie?!?!?*
Fuzzycat I have been following Rob for years. Every once in a blue moon he would respond. I know about the Q & As. I don't need you to respond to my original post. If I really wanted to get in contact with him I would seek other means. Thanks!
Gonna ask this question: have you considered doing Supernatural explained? There's a lot of mythology there and I don't think too many people are as effective at educating curious people about stories as you are. I know it's not your typical content, but do give it some thought. Respect.
@comicsexplained Hey rob, I was just wondering about all the possibilities the new ultimate universe has. I was also wondering as to who you think would be able to write the new stories if they ever get picked up?
Man I was expecting so much racism I’ma grown ass cynical American n I think the internet comments actually made me happy. The comic book community seems nicer than the gaming one. The movie was awesome I’m new to comics rlly but I hope they continue and show that he’s more than marvels Batman
There wasn’t a body….but for what it’s, after everything that’s happened with Chadwick, he most definitely is coming back. At least I really hope so. Seeing a redemption arc for his character and taking up the mantle of the Black Panther would be a dream come true.
He’s the best superhero villain I’ve ever seen because his motivations make complete sense and are logical. I understand why he’s so angry. The trauma of his childhood and witnessing Wakanda’s prosperity contrasted against Black communities in every other country discriminated against…these reasons all make sense. Every other supervillain pales in comparison. Meanwhile, Dr Connors from Spider-Man is out there wanting to turn everyone into fucking LIZARDS. Like WHY?!
I know this is old but because he was a pointless addition to the story. They didn't need him as the ''cause'' to have the Avengers fight each other. The film was good but compared to the actual civil war in the comics it was crap.
@Jocelyn Graham I guess most would strangle old ladies and kill their girlfriends to save themselves. He was likeable, but a piece of shit at the same time. Great actor. Hard to pull off ruthless and loveable at the same time.
By far the best MCU villian, he's a layered human with a compelling argument and is RIGHT in a certain way. Putting the hero difficult position. That to me makes him better them every other villian so far
I saw Black Panther! It was amazing! Erik was fully realized for me. His methods were villainous, but not his motivations. The character development and portrayal was beautifully done. From beginning to end, it was wonderful.
Texwell The Wizard I didn't even think of these points until I read the article. I really did not like that he died at the end. The argument the article made for Marvel villains is true. The article added another layer. I got wrapped up in all of the good the movie produced. You didn't think about how it treated the black American characters in the film. Hopefully the sequel rectifies the problems the article addressed.
Hollywood is so cunning. The whole reason why this came to film is that it features have a Black Lives Matter character who is also dastardly Villain. How convenient is that? There is a political motivation to almost every Hollywood movie. What else do expect from Disney. We got a Black real life president before they ever did a feature film starring a Black character (The Frog Princess).
I read the Boston article. The unrelenting core ideology in the article seems to be constructed on the blatant disregard that human nature is selfishness at its best. Is the color line the greatest message in history for the enslaved black man in America?. The primary, historical cause expressed as a "racist" culture. Is it the absolute, primary basis for everything that happens to a black man, woman in America The challenge is as long as we keep the focus as a "color" based issue it perpetuates and deepens the divide. Many find pleasure to fuel the financial engine of race wars. It is the similaritied, regardless of, melanin reproduction, that binds and heal the human heart. Highlights on the surface differences only perpetuate the ignorant and generalized lies. To forgive a wrong heals the one offended immensely more than the one who committed the offense. One will live. The other will implode in a self perpetuating stew of resentment. Pick the target. Whatever the impetus, this truth is for all human beings. It is fundamentally true for every culture. Both sides of a fraction, healing is not gained by emphasizing the differences nor blaming the other side. Violence has yet to produce heaing or improve the basic condition of a conflict. Dr. Mlk jr said love heals. So maybe african americans should start looking at oppression across the globe and do a study on that. Slavery did not start in America and the institution of genocide is very prevalent in many countries across the globe today. So back to the story... Kilmonger wants to ship weapons from Wakanda. Eye for an eye? The gangsta is dispensable. Aka boyz in the hood. The gangster believes that. Is that the reason so many viewers went to see it? Is that the core reason the movie is a financial success? Welcome to Gaza strip ideology. Maybe the African American plight is less of melanin issue?? Kilmonger did not see another option and presumed he would be imprisoned if he chose healing. Could he live in Wakanda? And how? T'Chala offered life. Kilmonger believed death was best. Btw, look at the ending again. Did T'Challa plunge the knife or did it circle in the air? How many viewers left feeling Black Lives don't matter? How many celebrated a new imagery and goals to be embraced and attained. That can be realized? What is really the underlying issue for the african american collective conscience to deal with? Maybe the focus of the unspoken narrative requires s new script
Michael B. Jordan's performance was fucking stellar. Usually I'm one to mock people who want capeshit nominated for academy awards, but his performance was genuinely incredible. I've been a fan of both Coogler and Jordan for years and was still blown away by this
MBJ is the best actor in the film, should have been cast as BP. Boseman should be memed as Boreman. The guy uses every ounce on his bad accent and comes across like a fucking board.
Just saw the movie and I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed a comic book villain this much since Ledger’s Joker. Killmonger is what really makes this film excellent.
Marc Gonzalez you are saying they flattened him but that happens in the comics too I'm trying not to give much away I'm also not trying to come off as rude my bad if you read it as such
Emmanuel Smith all good. Thanks for the clarity. I think, from what I've heard, his character a) could've been a great two part story and b) with Killmonger being as strategically intelligent and as successful as he was [both in film and in lore] it seemed the plot brought his summit too swiftly. He came down from OP too suddenly, IMO. Don't get me wrong I think it was still a great marvel flick and story/story arc.
Malthizar Idk about top three. He's not better than Loki or Vulture in my opinion. I also loved Bucky in Winter solider, but they're basically tied for 3 for me and are kinda interchangeably.
SH HS you're 100% correct. He was still an antagonist though. However because he was brain washed that's why I say I'm torn between Bucky and Killmongor for top 3. I wouldn't blame anyone for putting one over the other.
Just returned from seeing Black Panther. Dude, Rob, dudebro....please do a follow up vid on Black Panther. So many things, questions, potential plot pieces, characters/development. GIVE IT TO US BABY!!
I’ve already watched the film here I the UK. I can say it was amazing and killmonger was one of my favourite marvel villains very fresh and new type of villain
The origin you mentioned is not his main origin Christopher Priest and Don McGregor run which are essential Black Panther stories is the main one. Killmonger parents were killed by Klaw's men, was then kidnapped including other Wakandans by Klaw's men after their defeat by T'Challa. Killmonger was forced to work as a slave in the US. Killmonger eventually escaped he couldn't find his way back to Wakanda as its shut to the outside world essentially stuck as an orphan in a country that was foreign to him. Since then he been plotting against the Royal family. As he felt T'Chaka's lack foresight and weakness led to Klaw invading Wakanda to later cause devastation which led to his parents dying, be forgotten and being left to survive on his own. Years later he happen to come across T'challa, Killmonger told him his story and wanting to return back to Wakanda. T'challa agreed as Killmonger was a native and had been through alot even named the village he was from by his Wakanda name in his honour N'Jadaka. It had nothing to with restoring his father's honour. Once he came back, during that time BP was becoming more active with the Avengers wasn't around much, Killmonger used that opportunity to start a rebellion and start revolution in Wakanda. Killmonger is enhanced through the synthetic version of the heart shaped herb
if your a black american or black european you will see kilmonger as a hero he wanted to liberate black people allober the world his character outshined the panther even when he took over the wakandians were with it.
Brilliant??? Elevate the ideas were interesting in the movie. Glad somebody kept up with this stuff. You talk really fast. Hope you did a video of how the movie played kilmonger vs what you shared/expected. I think it is a tad different. Hmm.
You rob what do you think is blade a hero cause a lot of people say this is the first black superhero movie with a black person in the leading role when they seem to forget about blade but some are claiming he's not a hero
Hated the movie. Well, not the movie but the fanboys. The ones who will call you racist if you criticize it and say Killmonger has a good point. Then Rotten Tomatoes actually stopped people from rating it negatively.
Movie sucked such black pandering it was annoying and primmative loud meaninglesss and full of contradictions possible the worst marvel movie in a while black panther scenes are only good during a car scene for some reason one dimensional only has the death of his father to be likeable he's boring the Villain on the other hand was rather interesting but I'm pretty sure he would of become a drug attic before becoming black panther his character was to immature to be acting the way he did he was in the military but was acting like an upset child I could go on for hours I'm done now lol
My GOD man!! I just can't DO this anymore! I love ya, rob, but STOP saying"dess-poh." It's not like Margot, or depot. It's effing despot. Dess-POT! Pot. Say it with me, bobbers- POT. I normally wouldn't be a jerk about this, but after like five videos in a row of u using it, it's clearly a major part of ur lexicon now, so this will only continue to clang off my eardrums if I don't put the kibosh on it right this second. Please, if u have a heart in that chest of urs, do me this one solid. So I can go back to being obsessed with ur videos in peace. Much love.
I find it so funny that people are up in arms about Black Panther basically being an ethno-nationalist or ethnocentric nationalist person. Of course he is he's supposed to mirror African culture. There's a lot of people that don't understand that people in Africa are kind of like Trump. We're just nicer about things. apart from me and others that are like me, people in Africa don't take kindly to a lot of outside races.
Diversity is not their strength. They are racist as hell and will use the benevolence of others as one might use toilet paper. Which is why I will have no sympathy for the impending, self-inficted famine slouching toward south africa due to their anti white rabies. Trump however is not a rascist.
Chronfucius I think you have me confused. Their acts of wanting to be left alone and not bothered is kind of like the Hulk in their universe. However, they are also very real world African in that they tend to keep everything in-house economically. And when I say Trump is a racist I'm talking about the perception of trump being a racist.
Chronfucius additionally, both the White and the South African black people are both going to die of thirst it when Day Zero finally hits South Africa. So your unwillingness to help means that you're racist against both black and white in that sense.
Emmanuel Ani Facts, they touch on this in the comics especially the Jungle Action Run. BP one point spending more time with the Avengers helping the outside world. Once he back to his country his security council to the normal of people of Wakanda were questioning his authority and whether he still was true Wakanda as he left them for awhile. He brought his girlfriend Monica Lynne, (way more history together than Storm). She was discriminated against just for being a westerner. Sometimes it's not just colour but culture and tradition also separate us.
Part of Killmonger's strength after his coma is attributed to the fact that he develops and consumes his own synthetic version of the heart shaped herb. It's the reason he doesn't kill Kasper in the first place, because he has that to leverage with, and knows the Wakandan council will leave him alone because it isn't the real thing.
You should do a video focusing on Nakia. Her role in the comics and what her character's role in future movies might be. I don't know much about her, and since she's not Storm, I'm fearing what might happen to her being a love interest now that Marvel owns Fox
So if Killmonger is just an excellent, but normal, human, how would Bruce Wayne do against T'challa? I thought the Black Panther was on a different level from even exceptional, plain humans.
In a nutshell, if T'challa is without the powers given by the panther God. He would go even with Bruce Wayne as just a normal human. Cause both is one of the most intelligent and excellent fighters in their respective universe.
Pretty sure if Batman has plot armor thick enough to stand toe to toe with the man of steel and villains like dark side then he can pretty easily take out Black Panther.
I wanted to like it but I just didn’t. The villain was not very articulate I wish they would have made him articulate like Malcolm X and that they delved in deeper with the diverging philosophies. Another thing that he should have been bent on is destroying wakanda. It’s very clear at the onset of the film that wakanda was the perpetrator for his sorrow. He could have easily blamed wakanda for killing his father not knowing his father was a criminal. At the end they did not really resolve the differing philosophies and the bad guy had the audacity to compare himself to a slave. Sorry but criminals are no comparison to people who were forcibly removed from their home and traded. At the end they made a charity for Oakland.... bro goto Rwanda and Congo and I wish wakanda did a Monroe doctrine style approach to the African continent that would have been awesome. For me it was a 6 out of 10
Ec0n0m15t he suffered the same fate as slaves taken from the motherland. He lost his father and his identity and saw how lives of African Americans and Non Wakandans needed to change
MystikalScope Productions I don’t agree that he was even close to the same fate. The man went to MIT and became a navy seal after his father passed. Slaves were forcibly removed from their family and made to work unforgivable labor, make babies, and when their babies became of age they were sold. In other words slave owners would have killed his parents and he would be sold into slavery for the remainder of his short life. This villain was a stupid tyrant with no philosophical underpinnings for his viewpoints and sounded like an idiot every time he opened his mouth. His lines were super cheesy and I couldn’t take him seriously. I wish he would have used that anger to try and destroy wakanda and expose wakanda for the hypocritical government that it was
Killmonger would have become a prisoner of war and most likely enslaved for his crimes against the throne. He knew this and chose death. Thus the slave comparison. I do agree that I wish the film delved deeper into his philosophies and high intellect. It was just glazed over too quickly but I get that there was a lot to cram into the film. Things may have been shot but ended up on the cutting room floor. Fingers crossed for the Blu-ray! ;-)
I like to think they made him speak like he did in the movie to make him seem more American because most of the people speaking in the movie were Wakandans. They wanted him to seem more out of place than his people because he was an outcast and he was still quite intelligent in the movie. That was more of a front he purposely played of talking like that so he would lead everybody to think he was simple minded and his theologies would be easy to understand with no hidden agendas. Whatever his objectives were you couldn’t tell what if he was seriously as smart as he was until he changed his dialect like for example at the museum (I won’t spoil it). There was a clear change in how he approached said person at the end. Last but not least it makes sense for him to talk like he did because he was raised in New York where it’s known that the way they speak can be incredibly different and that he was from the ghetto. Just what I thought about it since his characters was more of an activist than a villain.
It's frustrating to me that when people see Black Panther all they see is the Panther suite. He is so much more and the recent stories show deep the character is and rich in history and growth potential Wakanda has. More needs to be done with the character and the movie is a good start!
So btw anyone else find it funny that all these super powerful gems of the universe almost all seem to be focused on Earth in the movies? A whole universe and the objects with the most power seem to all be in one location. Not the greatest hiding spots lol
Chris Godfrey almost none of the stones were in Earth in the.MCU originally. Thanos had mind Asgard has space Asgard hid Reality in a remote place The collector or tinkerer (i forget) had power Sorcerer Supreme had Time (only one) Finally, the soul stone id MIA
Yharo Torres I am referring to the original locations. Aether in dimensional rift discovered through Earth. Tesseract in a crypt on Earth. Time gem with the ancient one on Earth. And it seems likely the soul gem could pop up on Earth in wakanda during infinity war. So 4 with locations found on Earth prior to events that occur in the movies
Michael B Jordans Killmonger absolutely stole the spotlight. I don't even consider him a villain.
Sean Mcconnell Fam except when he strangled an old lady and killed his own "girlfriend" lmao
Let’s be honest we did not see it coming when he willingly killed her. That was funny asf
Exactly, he was my favourite character and I don't think I can see the sequels reaching the standards of the first film because he was such a well done and developed villain. He completely stole the show.
@@TheFoolishable nah. He strangled an old lady and shot his girl to save himself. When that's your hero, your a villain. Great character, well played, respectable backstory, villain just the same.
He's definitely a villain, he unjustifiably killed too many people. His father being killed isn't a great reason to justify his actions.
I cant understand why they kill both kilmonger and klau. Both has alot of potential for future sequels.
Id rather them do that than force a sequel, keep everything original, one of the big things about the movie is that it went against expectations, you keep them alive and well, things CAN become pretty obvious where theyre going
Carlo Cordova Killmonger ain’t dead
Black Panther how?
They killed other villains in the MCU, and I want to see his other villains like Brother Voodoo and the secret society that wants to abolish the monarchy.
@@carlocordova9238 Read the comics preferably the early Marvel TPB story....He not really bad guy he just has the wrong way about going at things....like they kinda did in the movie.
Killmonger is not a villan but a hero in my eyes
Good morning sir!!!! Comics explained for my morning is better than coffee!!!!!
Killmonger is the best Marvel villain
Hands down.
Character
Diggin' the Cobra Buckle on Killmonger's vest in the movie poster art at the end.
Let's be honest we all know we Gon be lit in the theaters when this comes out
White people made Justice League and that movie was fucking horrible lol
Black Panther can't be any worse than that 😂✌
Concessions are gonna take a hit nationwide.
Charles Baylor lmao ya dont think theres any white people that worked on this two lmaoo this movie had to be passed by all those white guys at disney and marvle
GritsnBeans lmaoo nah
stellvia hoenheim too fucking bad the movie was way better than what the bull shot that just came out your mouth
Not to mention that and killmonger is going to be named golden Jaguar
The movie is brilliant!

bro rob thank you for making this it's exactly the video I was hoping I'd post cause Idk much about this character but he's really interesting
Great video! Thank you for what you do. You are awesome!

What if... Red Death gets the powers of the Ghost Rider!? Please make a vid on this Rob
Yo, Rob!
Where do you think the soul stone is at, now that you saw Black Panther?
Going to go watch it this weekend
If Killmonger can f*ck up Black Panther given his human feats, Batman > Black Panther
I've enjoyed watching the views on this video explode since the movie came out.
Imagine kilomonger in endgame or infinity war.
Man I was expecting so much racism I’ma grown ass cynical American n I think the internet comments actually made me happy. The comic book community seems nicer than the gaming one. The movie was awesome I’m new to comics rlly but I hope they continue and show that he’s more than marvels Batman
Why is the Grinch following him? 3:28
Rob can we get a link to the outro song
This aged well
*13th comment*
"Hey auntie.."
What is it with Marvel Studios and repurposing Human Torches?
At least they turn them into good villains. Captain America was the best villain of Civil War.
I know. It’s really funny how Marvel studios is doing this. And makes me hopeful we will see the Fantastic Four done well with a cool Human Torch.
They see talent that got wasted and want to give them a chance to be a cooler character?
Tuaron definitely cooler...they’re not on fire
?
As an African-American I honestly could really relate to Killmonger kinda sad he died😔😔👑
There wasn’t a body….but for what it’s, after everything that’s happened with Chadwick, he most definitely is coming back. At least I really hope so. Seeing a redemption arc for his character and taking up the mantle of the Black Panther would be a dream come true.

100% agreed
Ppls hero
Killmonger honestly stole the show. Most well developed Villian Marvel has introduced so far.
The Real Deal him and zemo from civil war
Hello Turtle Zemo was awful couldn’t fight his way out of a paper bag .
Zemo litterally manipulated the Avengers to fight against each others how is he an awful villain?
I know this is old but because he was a pointless addition to the story. They didn't need him as the ''cause'' to have the Avengers fight each other. The film was good but compared to the actual civil war in the comics it was crap.
@Jocelyn Graham I guess most would strangle old ladies and kill their girlfriends to save themselves. He was likeable, but a piece of shit at the same time. Great actor. Hard to pull off ruthless and loveable at the same time.
His hair was just wow in the movie
yeah. I noticed that too. I'm getting that style
Everything about that movie had style shit even those black panther sandals
I have his hairstyle
Ajani Wells me too
It was awesome didn't feel like 2 hr 30 mins felt like an hour cuz it was sooooo good
zee raf it was 2hr and 30 mins it felt like 1hr and a half
By far the best MCU villian, he's a layered human with a compelling argument and is RIGHT in a certain way. Putting the hero difficult position. That to me makes him better them every other villian so far

To your point ‘Black Panther is Not The Movie We Deserve’ I great Article by Christopher Lebron of BostonReview.Net google it

The challenge is as long as we keep the focus as a "color" based issue it perpetuates and deepens the divide. Many find pleasure to fuel the financial engine of race wars.

it was shit
It was awful
Killmonger was one of the best villains in the movies. His motivations I can empathize with.
Devious J Good
Blind rov core member here, love the videos. Even though I cannot see them
tjpunk the blind gamer Nice! 👍
tjpunk the blind gamer Hopefully with technology increasing, you'll be able to see someday soon. 😃
a damn shame they killed him off Micheal B Jordan really took this Movie to another level with his performanc!
Richard Arroyo he’s alive u idiot
It’s marvel he can come back
He suckrd
Killmonger > black panther
First The Human Torch becomes Captain America, now he's trying to kill Black Panther. Boys got an identity crisis
MrLonely Reviews Right? These guys go through a lot. 😕
MrLonely Reviews Next thing you know, he'll turn into Captain Underpants.
Boseman is great but I just want to see MBJ playing Killmonger.
He's such a great villain in this movie.
MBJ is the best actor in the film, should have been cast as BP. Boseman should be memed as Boreman. The guy uses every ounce on his bad accent and comes across like a fucking board.
Marcello Genovese I loved Boseman performance
jackjack121 MBJ killed that role. Definitely my favorite character in the movie.
I was really put off by his street thug manner of speech .
Just saw the movie and I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed a comic book villain this much since Ledger’s Joker. Killmonger is what really makes this film excellent.
Between Baron Mordo, The Vulture and now Killmonger, Marvel is finally upping the MCU villains
Black Panther was a great movie! Just like this channel!
When he brought up the things Michael b jordan was in he left out fantastic 4
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Corey Glover And Creed
And Friday Night Lights
That movie didn’t happen I’m sorry.
damn, he real live played a villain and super hero in marvel. Didn't even realize
Smiles ツツ he was in Friday night lights 🤔🤔🤔
I watched it in 4D one of the best marvel films i've seen.
Mr Temporal YES... because I watched it in 4D I have ascended to God hood.
Wow so can you smell Killmonger's sweat in 4d? Lol just kidding.
So far Johnny Storm is the gateway marvel character. All things considered
was..
I watched it two days ago, it was amazing!!!
Julien Boret How'd u watch it I wanna know!? I'd like to watch it rn.
Never Hike Alone Jason it comes out earlier in other countries
Savitar Lucky!!!

fucking loved it. Going back to see it again on Friday 👍
Charles Baylor HAHA YEAH IT WAS FREAKING GREAT. I TOO AM GONNA WATCH IT AGAIN
Nice to see a Marvel villain with so many layers.

Marc Gonzalez false. Do some research. Also trying not to say too much
Emmanuel Smith My opinion is false?
Marc Gonzalez you are saying they flattened him but that happens in the comics too I'm trying not to give much away I'm also not trying to come off as rude my bad if you read it as such

I'm going to go see black panther, this coming Sunday
I'm seeing it Friday for the second time.
Charles Baylor, lucky basterd
Lol. I'll be seeing it a THIRD time, that Sunday.
lucky
Nathan Price lucky
Easily top 5 villains of the MCU
Manny Rivera Top 3*
Malthizar Idk about top three. He's not better than Loki or Vulture in my opinion. I also loved Bucky in Winter solider, but they're basically tied for 3 for me and are kinda interchangeably.
If theyre brainwashed I wouldnt really count them as a "villain" exactly
SH HS you're 100% correct. He was still an antagonist though. However because he was brain washed that's why I say I'm torn between Bucky and Killmongor for top 3. I wouldn't blame anyone for putting one over the other.
Man he’s up there, I’d even say he’s better than the Netflix villains, on par with fisk
I wish we would have gotten more movies with him as a villain :(
Hey Rob it’s my birthday today. I get to see black panther as my gift. And your videos are always a welcomed present 👍⚡️⚡️
Dennis Cleary happy birthday!! Live long and prosper!!
maiden man thanks dude 👍
Happy birthday. I hope you have a blast.
Dennis Cleary lol dude you always leave comments
Neil Thanks dude getting old sucks
I can’t wait for Black panther!!! Wakanda!!!!!!
*Wakanda Forever*
I watched it on Tuesday and it was just phenomenal!!
Just returned from seeing Black Panther. Dude, Rob, dudebro....please do a follow up vid on Black Panther. So many things, questions, potential plot pieces, characters/development. GIVE IT TO US BABY!!
I’ve already watched the film here I the UK. I can say it was amazing and killmonger was one of my favourite marvel villains very fresh and new type of villain
I agree 100%. Loved it
I liked how they did Killmonger in the film
The origin you mentioned is not his main origin Christopher Priest and Don McGregor run which are essential Black Panther stories is the main one.
Killmonger parents were killed by Klaw's men, was then kidnapped including other Wakandans by Klaw's men after their defeat by T'Challa. Killmonger was forced to work as a slave in the US. Killmonger eventually escaped he couldn't find his way back to Wakanda as its shut to the outside world essentially stuck as an orphan in a country that was foreign to him. Since then he been plotting against the Royal family. As he felt T'Chaka's lack foresight and weakness led to Klaw invading Wakanda to later cause devastation which led to his parents dying, be forgotten and being left to survive on his own.
Years later he happen to come across T'challa, Killmonger told him his story and wanting to return back to Wakanda. T'challa agreed as Killmonger was a native and had been through alot even named the village he was from by his Wakanda name in his honour N'Jadaka. It had nothing to with restoring his father's honour.
Once he came back, during that time BP was becoming more active with the Avengers wasn't around much, Killmonger used that opportunity to start a rebellion and start revolution in Wakanda.
Killmonger is enhanced through the synthetic version of the heart shaped herb
Just watched it today and it was amazing
Joestar Belmont yes it was a very good movie.
Great video Rob im going to see Black Panther Movie 2times .
3 for me
Charles Baylor I'll probably go see tonight to so it's gonna be 3 times gotta Support.
Hell Yeah! It's a must
He's the greatest antagonist MCU has ever had. No doubt.
michael22414 do you think he also has some heroic qualities to his character?
Thanos?
@Supa Mario I could relate to thanos
Wouldn’t mind a video with your take on the Black Panther movie. I loved it.
I’ve seen Black Panther twice already and my god! 😳
Batman issue 36 and 37(best things coming out of dc)👍👍.Rob please can you cover the story.
if your a black american or black european you will see kilmonger as a hero he wanted to liberate black people allober the world his character outshined the panther even when he took over the wakandians were with it.
I m telling you. I loved him so much he’s my favorite character
love your videos & voice, but that whole "make sure you hit that little bell so you never miss my sexy voice" is a bit offsetting...
It's a bit cringe worthy lol but he's only joking
offsetting? How? it's a joke.
I agree, its not something you wanna hear every video...
Yo profile pic got me
Brilliant??? Elevate the ideas were interesting in the movie. Glad somebody kept up with this stuff. You talk really fast.
Hope you did a video of how the movie played kilmonger vs what you shared/expected. I think it is a tad different. Hmm.
You rob what do you think is blade a hero cause a lot of people say this is the first black superhero movie with a black person in the leading role when they seem to forget about blade but some are claiming he's not a hero
Blade is MORE of a hero, he actively tries to rid the world of evil rather then trying to keep his advanced city hidden.
professor chaos blade and spawn are both anti heroes
This whole video was about black panther. Not erik killmonger
Hated the movie. Well, not the movie but the fanboys. The ones who will call you racist if you criticize it and say Killmonger has a good point. Then Rotten Tomatoes actually stopped people from rating it negatively.
MCU Killmonger is so awesome.
I'm not going to lie Rob that is one of the reasons I listen to you your voice no homo but I fux with your voice it's calming and relaxing
I already saw it lives up to the hype
Hay Rob
Quick question, slightly off topic
Blue Marvel!, if he was introduced into the MCU, who would play Him???
Wtf are you saying? We saw Black Panther in "Winter Soldier".
I stand corrected. I have a hard time telling snorefests apart.
Movie sucked such black pandering it was annoying and primmative loud meaninglesss and full of contradictions possible the worst marvel movie in a while black panther scenes are only good during a car scene for some reason one dimensional only has the death of his father to be likeable he's boring the Villain on the other hand was rather interesting but I'm pretty sure he would of become a drug attic before becoming black panther his character was to immature to be acting the way he did he was in the military but was acting like an upset child I could go on for hours I'm done now lol
Anyone else hit the bell to make sure you never miss out on his sexy voice?
Lord Corporal if they didn't.... They should
My GOD man!! I just can't DO this anymore! I love ya, rob, but STOP saying"dess-poh." It's not like Margot, or depot. It's effing despot. Dess-POT! Pot. Say it with me, bobbers- POT. I normally wouldn't be a jerk about this, but after like five videos in a row of u using it, it's clearly a major part of ur lexicon now, so this will only continue to clang off my eardrums if I don't put the kibosh on it right this second. Please, if u have a heart in that chest of urs, do me this one solid. So I can go back to being obsessed with ur videos in peace. Much love.
+1 and I don't know what was up with the audio on this vid, but it was extremely muddy
I find it so funny that people are up in arms about Black Panther basically being an ethno-nationalist or ethnocentric nationalist person. Of course he is he's supposed to mirror African culture. There's a lot of people that don't understand that people in Africa are kind of like Trump. We're just nicer about things. apart from me and others that are like me, people in Africa don't take kindly to a lot of outside races.
But the movie was good though
Diversity is not their strength. They are racist as hell and will use the benevolence of others as one might use toilet paper. Which is why I will have no sympathy for the impending, self-inficted famine slouching toward south africa due to their anti white rabies. Trump however is not a rascist.
Chronfucius I think you have me confused. Their acts of wanting to be left alone and not bothered is kind of like the Hulk in their universe. However, they are also very real world African in that they tend to keep everything in-house economically. And when I say Trump is a racist I'm talking about the perception of trump being a racist.
Chronfucius additionally, both the White and the South African black people are both going to die of thirst it when Day Zero finally hits South Africa. So your unwillingness to help means that you're racist against both black and white in that sense.
Emmanuel Ani Facts, they touch on this in the comics especially the Jungle Action Run. BP one point spending more time with the Avengers helping the outside world.
Once he back to his country his security council to the normal of people of Wakanda were questioning his authority and whether he still was true Wakanda as he left them for awhile.
He brought his girlfriend Monica Lynne, (way more history together than Storm). She was discriminated against just for being a westerner.
Sometimes it's not just colour but culture and tradition also separate us.
First! Black panther rockeed!
Max Shabazz you are 3rd
I agree 100%. Fucking loved it.
Seeing it again tomorrow
Part of Killmonger's strength after his coma is attributed to the fact that he develops and consumes his own synthetic version of the heart shaped herb. It's the reason he doesn't kill Kasper in the first place, because he has that to leverage with, and knows the Wakandan council will leave him alone because it isn't the real thing.
rob sucks!
jk love your "sexy"voice
Oh god there's no villian in this movie besides the colonists
If i see people recording this movie im snitchin.
LOL true
I'll pirate it cause i don't pay for hollywood movies anymore =3 . Go snitchin but it wont matter.
most pirated movie copies come from asian countries and are filmed form the projector room. good luck snitching :^)
GritsnBeans get out of here
You should do a video focusing on Nakia. Her role in the comics and what her character's role in future movies might be. I don't know much about her, and since she's not Storm, I'm fearing what might happen to her being a love interest now that Marvel owns Fox
So if Killmonger is just an excellent, but normal, human, how would Bruce Wayne do against T'challa? I thought the Black Panther was on a different level from even exceptional, plain humans.
He already did a video about Batman vs Black Panther. Check it out.
In a nutshell, if T'challa is without the powers given by the panther God. He would go even with Bruce Wayne as just a normal human. Cause both is one of the most intelligent and excellent fighters in their respective universe.
Pretty sure if Batman has plot armor thick enough to stand toe to toe with the man of steel and villains like dark side then he can pretty easily take out Black Panther.
Marcello Genovese Batman did not fight superman alone or without the help of a new suit.

Rob , plz do a video on *Wonder Man* and not ~Wonderwoman~. He is easily the most awesome superhero of a different kind in the Marvel universe
Ugh I hate this film already.
Watching it tomorrow and it won't even let me sleep smh.
Leslie Knope You seem to hate everything.
What about parks
Sebastien-Loik Ntsangou-Kanda did.. did you read the entire comment, mate?
@LK
As I see it now, it's liquid sarcasm so I don't know what they saw.
SuperShanko you get it.
I hope they somehow bring killmonger back in the future,he was a true villain.
He made a synthetic version of the herb and had super strength and senses.
He offered it to villians to entice them to join him
Joel Armour Yep some information he said was plain wrong
What if (Idris elba) heimdall became King of Wakanda
I wanted to like it but I just didn’t. The villain was not very articulate I wish they would have made him articulate like Malcolm X and that they delved in deeper with the diverging philosophies. Another thing that he should have been bent on is destroying wakanda. It’s very clear at the onset of the film that wakanda was the perpetrator for his sorrow. He could have easily blamed wakanda for killing his father not knowing his father was a criminal. At the end they did not really resolve the differing philosophies and the bad guy had the audacity to compare himself to a slave. Sorry but criminals are no comparison to people who were forcibly removed from their home and traded. At the end they made a charity for Oakland.... bro goto Rwanda and Congo and I wish wakanda did a Monroe doctrine style approach to the African continent that would have been awesome. For me it was a 6 out of 10
Ec0n0m15t he suffered the same fate as slaves taken from the motherland. He lost his father and his identity and saw how lives of African Americans and Non Wakandans needed to change
MystikalScope Productions I don’t agree that he was even close to the same fate. The man went to MIT and became a navy seal after his father passed. Slaves were forcibly removed from their family and made to work unforgivable labor, make babies, and when their babies became of age they were sold. In other words slave owners would have killed his parents and he would be sold into slavery for the remainder of his short life. This villain was a stupid tyrant with no philosophical underpinnings for his viewpoints and sounded like an idiot every time he opened his mouth. His lines were super cheesy and I couldn’t take him seriously. I wish he would have used that anger to try and destroy wakanda and expose wakanda for the hypocritical government that it was
Killmonger would have become a prisoner of war and most likely enslaved for his crimes against the throne. He knew this and chose death. Thus the slave comparison. I do agree that I wish the film delved deeper into his philosophies and high intellect. It was just glazed over too quickly but I get that there was a lot to cram into the film. Things may have been shot but ended up on the cutting room floor. Fingers crossed for the Blu-ray! ;-)
Thank you! This version was a watered-down version of the comics which was muddled so much to avoid dealing with that very conflict.
I like to think they made him speak like he did in the movie to make him seem more American because most of the people speaking in the movie were Wakandans. They wanted him to seem more out of place than his people because he was an outcast and he was still quite intelligent in the movie. That was more of a front he purposely played of talking like that so he would lead everybody to think he was simple minded and his theologies would be easy to understand with no hidden agendas. Whatever his objectives were you couldn’t tell what if he was seriously as smart as he was until he changed his dialect like for example at the museum (I won’t spoil it). There was a clear change in how he approached said person at the end. Last but not least it makes sense for him to talk like he did because he was raised in New York where it’s known that the way they speak can be incredibly different and that he was from the ghetto. Just what I thought about it since his characters was more of an activist than a villain.
2-3 weeks out, I though it released tomorrow?
Seeing it tonight and super pumped!
Michael B Jordan is a fant4stic actor...Oof
Austin Fitzgerald hahahahahahahahaha bwahahahaha
It's frustrating to me that when people see Black Panther all they see is the Panther suite. He is so much more and the recent stories show deep the character is and rich in history and growth potential Wakanda has. More needs to be done with the character and the movie is a good start!
So btw anyone else find it funny that all these super powerful gems of the universe almost all seem to be focused on Earth in the movies? A whole universe and the objects with the most power seem to all be in one location. Not the greatest hiding spots lol
Chris Godfrey almost none of the stones were in Earth in the.MCU originally.
Thanos had mind
Asgard has space
Asgard hid Reality in a remote place
The collector or tinkerer (i forget) had power
Sorcerer Supreme had Time (only one)
Finally, the soul stone id MIA
Yharo Torres I am referring to the original locations. Aether in dimensional rift discovered through Earth. Tesseract in a crypt on Earth. Time gem with the ancient one on Earth. And it seems likely the soul gem could pop up on Earth in wakanda during infinity war. So 4 with locations found on Earth prior to events that occur in the movies
Yharo Torres Guaranteed 3, but possibly 4
Soul Stone is probably in the mountain of Wakanda
How do you feel about Seth and Chuck's video calling you out as a hypocrite?
pnp072000 can you expand on your comment for those who are curious?
