I....had no idea that Wallace was Michael B. Jordan. For shame.

The Lion King remake is cutting "Be Prepared."

Well, this movie is dead to me now.

I can't remember that song, but can remember the other four in the article.

Trolls on Twitter make false claims of being assaulted at screenings of 'Black Panther'

In the tweets, the posters frequently blame "black youth" for the attacks, using images taken from various unrelated sources of bleeding and battered faces or images of blood in sinks and on towels.

One user even pulled the image that Colbie Holderness, an ex-wife of former White House staff secretary Rob Porter, shared when she wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post about the abuse she faced from Porter. The user claimed the photo of Holderness was an image of his wife after she was attacked when they went to see "Black Panther."

I am more upset they are omitting "Morning Report" from the new remake.

Black panther was great, a lot of the action scenes felt like marvel injecting a superhero movie into something very special and at times almost out of place. It all worked out fine, but it just goes to show you how important a good story is.

Interesting read about the movie

My comics buddy raved about it; he and his 10 year old loved it.

I never really knew much about Black Panther growing up, and his role in Avengers didn’t really make me care much, but the trailers look really good. I’ll definitely be checking it out.

My 6, 8, and 10 year olds loved it. There was an awesome car chase scene, but I loved the non superhero stuff in the movie much more. Mainly because it went over their heads, the kids loved the superheroey parts to it!

[eddy]

And that's why it really is a great movie, there is a lot here for everyone. It's a heavy themed movie that plays well to kids.

The tone of that article: "white people don't get it". I'm sure the movie is excellent.

I've never seen do the right thing, but I got the impression that take was more about that movie. I did relate a lot to the article specifically with the audience I watched it with. There was a lot of yelling and cheering specifically at the villian and his plan to start a black revolution. I thought as it was happening that ,yeah he's a really cool character in the movie, but he's the bad guy and this isn't the kind of thing to cheer on (I'm wondering if you'd actually walk out judging from your reaction (maybe I'm assuming too much?)). After reading the article, it did make sense regarding this audience probably did relate more with him then the good guy. I kinda figured you'd have that response if you said anything at all without seeing the movie, but it definitely helped me see the movie and the passion of the audience in a different light. I didn't really find the movie to be excellent, the last fight felt rushed and pretty boiler plate. The cgi wasn't great and felt like something that was passable 15 years ago. Like the article says, it is pretty awesome seeing this much idea in a tent pole super hero movie.

[eddy]

I think it's pretty awesome that kids have a black superhero that they can look up to like this. The main character was extremely flawed throughout the movie and maybe for the first time in a marvel movie, I actually felt like oh, maybe everything won't be ok in the end. It was a refreshing change of pace. I'd definitely put this in my top 10 marvel list.

Do people act like Blade doesn't exist?

Do people act like Blade doesn't exist?

I hope not, because Wesley Snipes was the **** in Blade. Loved every one of them, and would still be on board to see him do another.

To be fair, blade was a pretty hard R at the time, right? Not really marketed to young kids.

One of the more creative death scenes for sure.

My daughter loves this book called Wonder. We watched the movie over the weekend and it was really good. Great family movie, it got the tears flowing. We also introduced the kids to Willow and it was a huge success (obviously).

Watched A River Runs Through It this weekend.

I was young when it came out, so not sure what kind of acclaim it got, but that's such a good movie.

I've been wanting to see that again. When I was younger, I took a fly fishing trip out west and visited a lot of the spots in the movie. Absolutely breathtaking scenery!

within the last year or two, I've become more and more of a Marvel movie fan, but I didn't quite follow the significance of the last post credit scene in Black Panther (not the one poking Trumps build walls), but the last one. Any help?

at the end of civil war t'challa takes bucky back to wakanda to begin trying to repair both his arm and his mind. so it looks like that went well. the white wolf that the kids refer to is a wakandan special forces operative in the comics
