Yeah, #WakandaForever is incredible. Still formulating my thoughts some more, but it’s absolutely one of Marvel’s best. It really is a beautiful, compelling, & worthy sequel to #BlackPanther. The explorations of grief, legacy, generational trauma, & cycles of pain are stunning.
It honestly would have been a MIRACLE to get even a “good” movie given the heartbreaking real life circumstances, but they managed to make an amazing movie. The way they handled the themes of loss are SO elegantly done. It’s so moving. #BlackPanther #WakandaForever
This being a script created by devastating necessity is just UNREAL to me, because it just feels like the next natural chapter for #BlackPanther. It’s both a clear tribute piece, and a navigation of circumstances, but it never feels like a panicked reaction. It’s SO confident.
To put it in terms of other films, particularly Star Wars (shocking, I know), #WakandaForever is both The Empire Strikes Back of #BlackPanther, AND the Return of the Jedi. It’s BOTH, with those middle chapter trials of darkness, but also the heroic, triumphant crystallization.
Cast is amazing too. Tenoch Huerta Mejía as #Namor is a revelation. Letitia Wright as #Shuri went to new emotional places that were so powerful. Winston Duke continues to shine as #MBaku. And the incomparable Angela Bassett is UNREAL. #Ramonda is next level. #WakandaForever
