Finally had the honor of watching #BlackPantherWakandaForever. Marvel Studios was never as political as this film, that has action scenes, of course, but much more. For example, probably the MVP, Angela Bassett is assured of an Oscar nomination, if not winning. 👇

What Ryan Coogler does with #BlackPanther is to reconstruct a whole mosaic of generational traumas that haunt ethnic communities around the planet. It goes deep, and not just for Namor, but for the care with plots and emotions that are truer than ever before in Marvel. 👇

So, for #BlackPantherWakandaForever, Ryan Coogler revisits decades of African filmography. There are scenes in this movie that could have only been crafted by someone who loves Med Hondo's "Sarraounia".
He might have even watched Mexican melodramas to make this. So good. 👇

That said, #WakandaForever post-credits scene proves that Marvel wants to tell not just good stories, but good stories with meaning. What does it mean to lead a nation. What does it mean to be a symbol? A king. A hero. Therefore, the future of the studio is not doomed. 👇

#BlackPantherWakandaForever is not just about kids seeing themselves on the big screen anymore. It's about revolution. Of all people. Of all nations. Go watch Hondo. Sembène. Mambéty. Maldoror. Ouédraogo. Dash. Burnett. Lee. And, now, Coogler. Longe live Boseman. 'Nuff said.
