So apparently black twitter is blowing up with excitement about the Black Panther movie:

https://twitter.com/hashtag/BlackPantherSoLIT?src=hash
It's gonna be really interesting to see the cultural/audience reaction to this movie.
>Not knowing how lit Black Panther is
why am i surprised how white /co/ is
>>82827716
>all this hype only after Jordan is cast in
More like they're only lit for certain actors. Whatever that means.
>>82827716
>Michael B. Jordan
is he not under contract with fox?
>>82827716
If it does well it'll once again be Disney fucking up some old preconceptions in the film industry.
With a lot of it's properties it's been gradually proving that to make a successful franchise film about them a superhero character DOESN'T need to be publicly known already as long as the film is entertaining. Ant-Man in particular was more successful and better received then expected.
If BP does well then they'll prove that casting more then once black person in a film doesn't turn it into a "black people movie" that only black people go to see. Of course that particular belief is largely held because Holloywood is run by ancient dinosaur men who have views on race more appropriate to the 1960's as certain famous directors have intimated.
I can't wait for all the tweets and posts about how society would be like Wakanda if there were no white people.
>>82827942
>>If BP does well then they'll prove that casting more then once black person in a film doesn't turn it into a "black people movie" that only black people go to see.
did straight out of Compton not already illustrate that though?
>>82827897
That would imply Fox is going to actual produce FF2 in a way that would interfere with the BP shooting schedule.
God damn, going to the movie theater on opening night will be a fucking nightmare.
>>82828002
no see it was already like wakanda until the white colonialists came in and destroyed everything
>>82828039
Shit, fucking Coming To America proved that back in the 1980s.
But hollywood, for all it's grandstanding about social issues, will always fall back on it's old laurels when they can. If a movie starring a woman or minority does well, that oh "it's an anomaly", and if it fails it's "I knew it!"
>>82828049
Never go to a theater on opening night.
>>82827831
Nah it's been building since Civil War came out, Jordan just set off the tinderbox
>>82828049
>Not enjoying a raucuous theatre experience.
It's gonna be a fucking blast.
>>82827716
>inb4 it becomes "Tyler Perry's Black Panther"
Instead of the capeshit quips it's going to have a lot of loud nonsense and Black Panther is going to go undercover as a woman.
>>82827716
I mean, can you blame them? It's finally a "black movie" that isn't about rap or slavery. All my shade color friends hate those.
>>82828002
Distrustful, xenophobic and borderline genocidal? Society is already like that with white people.
>>82828215
If I wanted to spend two hours around screaming monkeys, I'd go to the zoo.
>>82828039
What >>82828164 said.
Hollywood is a pretty incestuous and self-absorbed sub-culture that has difficulty changing and falls into the trap of confirmation bias far too often to be healthy.
Kind of a lot like comic fandoms, actually.
It has been awhile since Hancock.
*African-American twitter
>>82828240
All my nignog friends hate black movies anyways. They all come across as pandering. Make a fucking movie, don't try to appeal to a certain race specifically. That's actually kinda fucking racist.
>>82827716
I don't get it, why is this even news when Wakanda is literally in Africa and they'll probably do some origin story set there. It's like saying
>omg Kamen Rider has 90% asian crew
>>82828331
>black movies
like?
>>82828333
Doctor Strange pissed off Asian people because Marvel cast Tilda as the Ancient One. It's what Disney deserves for sucking China's dick.
>>82828257
>borderline genocidal?

>>82828327
Not all black people are from america you retard
>>82827716
Can't speak for everyone but me and my friends have wanted as BP movie since the 90's, and were pretty damned excited when Wizard Magazine had a rumor that Snipes was interested in playing T'Challa.

Or just spend a night at home at the trailer park.

*Basketball-American twitter
>>82828372
>It's what Disney deserves for sucking China's dick.
is that a reference to the ancient one not being a Tibetan guy or something else?
>>82828424
>White liberal who's never had to work around or with black people detected
>>82828372
Casting a white person that looks like an alien as an asian person isn't much of stretch.
You'd have to be an absolute mad man to cast fucking Black Panther as a white person
>>82828372
well and Thor pissed off white people with Heimdal, fucking diversity quotas and all... This is a bit different tho, we're talking about movie set entirely in African nation.
>>82827897
>He thinks F4stic is happening

Tyler Perry if I had to guess.
Did you know Mr. Tyler Perry is the 4th most wealthy director in Hollywood? Coming in at a cool 400 million dollar plus net worth. Not bad for a guy who was once homeless.
>>82828215
This desu. I watched civil war in a surprisingly empty-ish theater the first Friday because there were so many showtimes/versions and I missed being in a packed theater with lots of laughing and shit.
>>82828372

Hold up. No it didn't. It pissed off people who get pissed off for Asian people, ie, whining white women

Hollywood is only as progressive as it thinks it's profitable to be.
>>82827716
I'm glad it's happening. Who knew 8 years ago we'd be getting Dr Strange and Black Panther etc. MCU is killing it!
>>82828532
There are quite a few Asian celebs who spoke out about it
>>82828530
There is something about seeing a hyped movie in a packed theater. Is there a chance you'll have a bad experience? Sure, but there's that feeling of everybody in the same room feeling the same way. When I saw TFA in the biggest crowded theater I've ever seen, it was an experience

No this time it pissed off actual asian people too. You don't cast the asianiest asian motherfucker as a white person to try to get brownie points with China.
>>82828382
Wakanda in the comics is shown to be highly advanced but far from perfect.
One of T'Challa's struggles as a character back when he was well-written was his attempts to modernize and get Wakanada and it's people to release their xenophobia and cultural hatreds.
Christ Priest's run based a lot of Wakanda's social problems on issues that many modern advanced African nations are beset by in real life, including tribal and religious rivalries and strong xenophobic tendencies towards other tribal groups.
>>82827897
Look, I know what Kinberg said, but there has never been a sequel to a film that started out as a complete disaster at the box office. If Fox does another Fantastic Four film, they're gonna reboot.
>>82828357
Every tyler perry movie to start.
>>82828559
I remember a few years ago when an exec supposedly said Disney would never do a BP movie because they felt white people wouldn't go watch it. I want this shit to break records.
>>82828547
Not all porch monkeys are black.
>>82828382
After a Phoenix-empowered Namor dropped a tidal wave on Wakanda, Wakanda responded by basically wiping out Atlantis, and all the people living there.
As opposed to attacking the mutants, where Namor was working for when he attacked.
>>82827716
I'm a white DC fag, and following Civil War, I'm more hype for BP than I am Justice League.
>>82828164
>But hollywood, for all it's grandstanding about social issues, will always fall back on it's old laurels when they can. If a movie starring a woman or minority does well, that oh "it's an anomaly", and if it fails it's "I knew it!"
This is an industry where they think a title with the word "green" in it--Green Lantern, Green Hornet--causes box office disaster and not the quality of the film.
>>82828580
I don't mind it when the audience claps or cheers at certain parts, my theaters erupted in applause at several movies, like TFA, MoS, TASM, etc.
More often than not though when I've been in packed theaters they couldn't shut up. When I saw Winter Soldier, Avengers,and Avengers 2, people kept talking about unrelated shit during the movie and repeating lines loudly that they thought were funny.
>>82828670
Except namor doesn't give a shit about mutants. He does however give a shit about his atlantean brood filth.
>>82828622
>Wakanda in the comics is shown to be highly advanced but far from perfect.
sometimes. but that's really isn't what I meant. I mean besides that guy who killed everyone in a village because he though it would make it rain. I can't think of any other instance behavior that could be genocide
>>82828662
Disney has been pretty good about not giving a fuck about stuff like that for a good 30 years. The only people they routinely fuck over are the Native Americans.
>>82828711
also the word Mars
>>82828670
then who did the squadron supreme kill? unless they were brought back after secret war then killed again?
Can we take a second and just realize how amazing this all is?
We're getting a Black Panther movie - a movie with a black superhero and an entirely black cast - and it's not going to be some niche thing that only a select group of people want to see. No, we've got the whole world, regardless of race, going fucking nuts over this and saying 2018 can't some soon enough.
Marvel is breaking ground here.

In their defense that's a WB movie. Although they did cast ol' Depp to play Tonto
>Oh, he's 1/32nd native American
Nigga, this is America. Everybody whose US lineage goes back further than 150 years has at least 1 native ancestor.
>>82828915
>Chinese Government,
why would the govt be upset?
>>82829042
Casting a Tibetan puts Tibet in a positive light. The Chinese gov. is doing everything in their power to remove any sentiment of Tibetan separatism. Casting a Tibetan could be seen as support for an independent Tibet.
>>82829042
The Ancient One is a Tibetan monk. China and Tibet have a...strained relationship of sorts.
>>82829131
>>82829175
that's what I though when I asked in >>82828451
but at the same time I think it would be pretty easy to work around him being Tibetan
>>82827897

Fox has no such policy

Why is it called black twitter? Is there a white twitter?
I'm not even black and I'm super hyped for Black Panther, he was one of my favorite parts of the movie.
All of my friends loved him too, I honestly think this movie will do well with pretty much any race/demographic. Boseman is great, Coogler proved himself with Creed and so far the casting announcements are top notch.
>>82829247
I imagine Disney wanted to ensure that there was no way the Chinese gov looked at the ancient one and said "That's a Tibetan person".
>>82829268
For the same reason Friday is a black movie but Billy Madison isn't a white movie.
>>82828391
Well, yes Durp. But, when most people refer to "Black Twitter", they are referring to issues pertaining to Black Americans. Yes, I know Black Panther is a multi-million dollar movie to be shown around the world, but most of the people in the tag celebrating are AA. (Lit itself is AA slang) Finally, a movie with a black cast that isn't about slavery or a Madea movie.
>>82829332
Billy Madison is a painfully white movie though.
>>82829407
Of course it is, but no one will ever call it that. And that's the point.
>>82829036
That's pretty much true.
>>82828039
It's been proven time and again that if a movie/show is well-written, the race of the cast is not so important. Moreover, black people watch a lot of movies and television, more than white people, so the hesitation to cater quality entertainment to that market is so fucking dumb.
>>82827716
why was "black panther will have a 90% black cast" news?
That's like saying a kung fu movie will have a 90% Chinese cast, or a Bollywood movie will have a 90% Indian cast.
What will the Stan Lee cameo be?

>>82828796

>>82828424
Black people are pretty loud in movies dude.
I went to see that DBZ movie a theater this year and it was 99% black people in the crowd. They were shouting and going ballistic the whole fucking time.
That said, due to the nature of the movie, that didn't bother me the way that people speaking normally during a movie does. If anything it made it more enjoyable. But, obviously, I can see why that would be annoying

some of the better ones are Ride Along and Dope
>>82829725

usually the only Asian people are him and the villain he fight sometimes
>>82829755
Aww, that's just an overblown stereotype. They're no louder than nerds are at something like Star Wars or Scott Pilgrim. Just depends on the type of movie.
>>82827716
One thing that I keep seeing in discussions about black panther is an inability to distinguish between African-Americans and African-Africans.
T'challa is privileged as fuck. He is the ruler of an incredibly wealthy and scientifically advanced country that is never been colonized.
His lived experiences are going to be profoundly different from the average black person living in the United States. He's not really a representation of what we think of as black people.
>>82829571
I hope so, Black Panthur is a kick ass character. Plus it doesn't help that BvS was total utter shite.
>>82829904
Barbershop 3 was quite good too.
But I don't think Ride Along should count. Kevin Hart at this point is what executives consider "mainstream."
>>82828164
But that was about black people being funny instead of intimidatingly hyper-competent.
Even if Zamunda is kind of like Wakanda.
>>82828372
>Doctor Strange pissed off Asian people
This may be racist, but I literally cannot imagine Asian people getting the slightest bit inflamed about a fantasy movie.
>>82828823
>then who did the squadron supreme kill?
Namor. The reaction, to my surprise, was complete silence. Not a goddamn response to the death of Marvel's oldest character.

I think he is meant to be a power fantasy, like many other superheroes. The only difference is that this one is both black and not a sidekick.

>>82827716
So it's two human torches going to the MCU now. I wonder if he is going to explode in popularity as much as Cap did.

Ant-Man out-profited it.
After 8 years of production hell.
After a director drop-out 1 years before.

In his first appearance, pretty much the first thing he did was murder two divers.
>>82830403
Of all the boards on 4chan none are more continually wrong about their specialist subject than /tv/, except perhaps /pol/.
/tv/ thought Deadpool would flop and BvS would be the biggest movie in history. They're complete retards. They've already decided BP will flop as the cast is mostly black.
>>82830403
...Didn't they make that an issue in the comic, once, too?
>>82830504
Technically speaking I wouldn't know. I guess he belongs with the Fantastic Four since they reintroduced him there.
>>82827942
Hollywood can be extremely racist, especially the studios and financiers. Sean Penn and Alec Baldwin are both known to go off on viscous rants behind closed doors and John Wayne privately funded white supremacy movements for decades.
>>82830325
Saying that BP is supposed to represent American blacks would be like making a movie about a Japanese superhero that was the head of an ultra rich and powerful clan of ninjas, and marketing it as representation of Japanese-Americans.

>>82829918
Would be really see a "globe-trotting" Shang-Chi show, though? Thus far The Defender shows are only located in NYC.
It makes sense for Shang to have a mixed American or British cast. But, if he's stuck doing the Marvelfix street-level thing, and Matt/Frank are dealing with the Irish/Italian mobs, it wouldn't surprise me if Shang deals with Triads. Obviously, all the characters won't be Asian, but I'd imagine the majority will.Especially, after the whole AAIronFist, and general white-washing Hollywood controversies.
>>82830557
>John Wayne privately funded white supremacy movements for decades.
I am shocked. Deeply shocked.
Privately, you say?
>>82830557
John Wayne's racism wasn't that hidden. there's a playboy interview where he basically says he thinks white people are better
>>82830641
Doesn't mean they're not pieces of shit. Sean Penn once tied Madonna to a chair and beat her repeatedly when she threatened to leave him.

let's be honest; the mostly black cast will make BP not do well in China and maybe some other foreign countries, and China is one of the biggest, most important markets when it comes to making or breaking a movie's gross.
>>82829993
It's quite grating when people refer to T'Challa as a "PoC", he lives in a "Black Supremacy", not a white one. He isn't Luke Cage.
>>82830801

>>82830712
Asians are way more under represented in American movies than blacks are. At least blacks get a few racebent characters thrown their way; Asian roles just get whitewashed.

What does and doesn't do well in China at this point is a fucking crapshoot.
Oh, China hates blacks and hispanics for some reason (seriously, considering their history you'd think they'd hate white people more) but still came out in droves to see Furious 7, a movie with a main cast of 12 people and only 3 of them are white.

Opium wars for starters
>>82831041
It's 2016 anon. Don't you know who Idris Elba is?
>>82831002
Ever heard of this little thing called the opium wars.
>>82831043
Namor is so unspeakably based. Look at that. That's like goddamn Conan.
>>82831043
Fucking Namor.
As a black guy I already knew about back panther. All these other fools acting like they know about him. Its not the first "black" hero. Hell remember Blade.
>>82830801
I don't understand where Chinese hate blacks & hispanics thing comes from. I know actual Chinese from China. They're slightly racist towards white if anything due to the history. They're utterly indifferent to blacks or others as they don't have them there. Where does it come from and why does 4chan take this as gospel?
>>82827716
As supposed to "white twitter"?
>>82831043
Could happen to any of us, honest mistake
>>82831002
Opium Wars, Russian invasion of Manchuria, general issues with the west for the last 100 years.
>>82831134
>Its not the first "black" hero.
He is legitimately the first black superhero though.
>>82831134
Blade reboot but with white guy.
I would love to see reactions.
>>82831134
In comics he was the first black superhero. In movies no. Probably Blade yeah.
>>82831202
It should honestly be a Japanese guy just to stop this sickening cultural appropriation of katanas and katana accessories.
>>82831041
Well, set your alarm. Because on February 16, 2018 we are going to find out.
>>82831202
Blade reboot with an actual black British person like Blade is in the books not yet another Americunt. Idris Elba is the usual go to guy for black British actors. But John Boyega is around now too.
>>82831134
Blade get's criminally overlooked. Successful trilogy. Influenced the Matrix. Turned Wesley Snipes into a bonafide A-lister until the tax evasion thing happened. The only thing that hurts Blade is that it came out in between the lulls of Batman returns and Spierman.
>>82831234
I just might know the guy.
>>82831202
What if they make him actually british this time
>49% of the audience of Civil War is white
>19% is black
good luck selling this piece of shit, maybe they should include Cap and Bucky to even have a chance
>>82831041
>2016
>doubting the MCU
>>82831278
If they made Roland from Black Tower a black dude then no problem making Blade white.
>>82831091
>>82831070
Wow. A little war and they're supposed to hate whites who've had so much progress done in history.
>>82830777
Oxford English, more likely.
>>82830792
Strange man.
>>82830919
I just hope they can pepperspray Reginald Hudlin off the premises before he can get his two dollars in.
can't wait for spike lee to come out saying that the black panther movie is not representative enough of the black culture or not 'black' enough
blaming hollywood for showing a 'white' black hero/society
i for one liked black panther in civil war. and approve of this role model.
>>82830050
We're getting a movie about a little-known black leader of an American slave rebellion soon... One who personally raped multiple women and killed children.
They're totally ignoring that though, along with the other innocents slaughtered and violated during what was an all around hellish event. Instead it's being portrayed as heroic Oscar-bait.
Who would even be antagonist in this?
BP antagonists are fucking bottom of the barrel tier.

Beasts Blade by five years and Steel by four.

>>82830904
Asians have been fucking eachother over for thousands of years. They disregard and deride blacks and most other people. Actual hatred is reserved for themselves.
>>82831278
>>82831309
so is there any actual precedent for exceptionally British blade that I haven't seen or is it just people really wanting more non-American black representation? he's never been been depicted with a British accent or mannerisms in books or movies I've seen. he left when he was like 12 and he's over 80's years old and in his first appearance talked just like a black American in the 70's.
>>82831402
We know Klaw will be in it.
My guess is Killmonger.
I'm hoping for Achebe but I know that will never happen.
>>82828876
Try living just outside of Gloucester m8. Every time I visit town I feel like I'm surrounded by mudslimes. Feels bad man.
>>82830801
>China is one of the biggest, most important markets when it comes to making or breaking a movie's gross.
>Look up Deadpool
>over 700 million with a 60 million budget
Who started this "WE NEED CHINA" meme? Was it Transformers? I feel like Transformers started this.
>>82831402
>Klaw
>Killmonger
>White Wolf
He's got a few good ones.
>>82831506
I don't care about representation. Just looking for something a bit different than the growly angry black man weve had the last two times
>>82831043
A retcon I can live with.
>>82831304
Had Ryan Reynolds...
>>82831529
That's the thing though, Deadpool didn't cost as much, comparably. That's how insane budgets are now. Massive movies need high international grosses.
>>82831134
>Japan had a mainstream Black hero before America
>>82831545
>White Wolf
But that's his bro, bro!
>>82831402
That's not much different from most of the other MCU villains. Iron Man's rouges gallery is a joke sans maybe Ghost and Hulk is mostly just other hulk like beings.
>>82827716
>Marvel debuts their most promanant Black character in their latest movie
>that characters movie comes out next year
Well no shit black people are excited
>>82831493
Meteor Man stars the man who made Hollywood Shuffle, a movie specifically about what this thread is about. I don't know how serious we should take it.
>>82831646
>That's the thing though, Deadpool didn't cost as much, comparably
Even if Deadpool cost 200 mil (standard block buster) its gross would have still been impressive without china.
>>82830676
Sounds like you haven't been to /b/ in a while. /tv/ and /pol/ are just hellholes. /b/ is still VERY clearly newfag central
>>82831369
Oh Spike. You made some damn fine films. Inside Man. Malcolm X. Miracle at St. Anna. Jungle Fever. Do The Right Thing. But your politics are fucked as are the rest of your movies. You don't fight white supremacy with black supremacy.
>>82830956
This fills me with joy. Thank you anon.
>>82831789
It actually doesn't come out for two years. 2018 release.
>>82827716
History, Panther, history!
>>82828372
>Doctor Strange pissed off Asian people because Marvel cast Tilda as the Ancient One
you're fucking wrong. White SJWs were pissed. actual asian people couldn't give less of a fuck.
>>82830797
Maybe it should be.
>>82832365
>actual asian people
scuse me?
>>82830971
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Twitter
Because it is literally a thing?
>>82828333
Well ScarJo got cast as Major Kusanagi so it's never a sure bet.
So Black Twitter isn't actually a different place, it's just a needless distinction.
>>82831278
>John Boyega
>As Blade.
>>82830088
What the fuck is up with you yuros and not being able into non-repressive, limited governments?
You either go full PC moneyburner, do-you-have-a-license-for-that-plastic-fork mode or you're all like "The Paris stock exchange is down 3%. WELP! Time to break out the swastika/hammer-and-sickle flag!"
Seriously. Your entire continent looks like one giant prison to us.
>>82832642
What? He can be scary when he wants to.
>>82828372
But that's a hell of a Morton's fork when it comes to casting. Would you rather have Tilda Swinton typecast as another aloof androgyne or a prominent Asian actor asked to take on a walking, talking stereotype like the Ancient One?
>>82828829
I'm with you, but only if the movie is actually good. If they throw up some BET Hudlin trash up there, I ain't feeling that.
>>82829131
More specifically, the more distance they put between the Dali Lama there and actual tibet, the better the Chicom government feels. See also: The Mandarin.
>>82829928
It's a legit part of black american culture anon. calling it a stereotype.
>>82832365
I know quite a few Asian people. Since I am y'know actually fucking Asian. They moaned and complained about it.
The actor still could have been Asian and their nationality changed to Nepalese or Bhutanese even North Indian without it being whitewashed and not upsetting Tibetans or the chinese gov.
>>82829993
That's a really dumb argument. Just because he's successful doesn't mean he doesn't represent black people. I'm actually really fucking tired of underdog black dude story.
>>82831023
Please tell me again about how the Jews false-flagged 9/11 using micro-nukes and holograms again?
>>82832816
I'm not seeing it. He's still way too boyish for me to take seriously.
>>82827716
>>82832945
Well, he could play a young Blade on his first hunt.
>>82832786
>Seriously. Your entire continent looks like one giant prison to us.
That's ironic, given your prison population. Sorry for being civilized, Yankee. We tried being uncivilized, but we didn't like it.
>>82832927
You'd think people would be hesitant to fuck with people that powerful.
>>82832786
It's called having manners, you obnoxious scrote.
>>82833046
These days you seem to be toppling back into uncivilized behavior, albeit through bringing in vast numbers of uncivilized people.
>>82832276
That movie was good as fuck
>>82833074
I'll admit, it's probably much easier to have proper manners when you can be imprisoned for not having them.
>>82830524
>/tv/ thought Deadpool would flop and BvS would be the biggest movie in history.
Fuck are you talking about, I browse that board time to time and did not see this
>>82830589
But...Holywood actually DOES do shit that idiotic, and worse, on a regular basis.
>>82830777
Dammit. It's a strange time for race relations when Booker T. Washington and Marcus Garvey get mistaken for Fox News.
>>82830797
He actually said shit like that, early on in his run.
>>82830822
It's even narrower than that. Wakandan supremacy.
