hopefully the other two villains take almost as much minutes in the movie
I don't think M'Baku will be a villain in this film. I think, to use a wrestling term, he will be a "tweener". A neutral party. It's really Killmonger and Klaw.

They've done great work together for 2 films.
Michael B. Jordan was dope in Creed.
He fit that character because even though he grew up in a foster home he also grew up with wealth. So he didn't need to be "tough", but he pulled off playing a troubled character very well.
However, upon thinking about the film he never handled the "tough talk" well. The scene before he was knocked out he did well. However, his trash talk at the press conference, the fight with the rapper, and during the ring were not great. But again I was ok with that because of his character.
In Fruitvale yea he probably wasn't that guy, but for the depiction they were going he did great.
He's good at playing a good guy with a rage underneath.
However, as a villain there's gotta be a conviction when you speak. If the audience doesn't believe that you believe it.....its not going to work.
shyt just look at Ali from last year

"Take me to the king".Told y'all he would look and make the whole thing look corny from the jump.
It's like getting Kevin Hart to play a serious boss.
"I want the throne" that delivery
There is absolutely no doubt that his corny ass will be the weakest part of the movie and what ultimately brings it down.
They should've gotten Michael Jai White or something. He's going to feel like a nuisance more than a threat.
He looks like a member of B2k.Jazzy finally showed up
Anyway, yeah, I'm getting Ronan (from GOTG ) vibes from the footage. Lee Pace was incredibly unconvincing and unnatural as Ronan and MBJ, based on the clips, looks to be heading down that same road. Sucks because he looks badass in the part, visually.

I JUST read the interview and there’s a lot of
in Priest’s DNA it seems.This dude was straight up THANKING DC for letting him write white characters. shyt is fukking ridiculous.
And he’s so proud of the fact that he created Everett Ross as the white fans Totem rather than allowing T’Challa his own voice.
This whole “curry favor with white People” routine does NOT WORK. Priest’s run was critically acclaimed and had some legit genius storylines, but it still suffered backlash and low sales.
That’s the primary reason why I entirely prefer Hudlin’s run. Hudlin was unapologetic in allowing T’Challa to take his OWN story and his OWN blackness into his OWN hands. White fans be damned. And Hudlin’s run outsold Priest’s. There was no white boy running around Wakanda (Hunter) or white narrating The Black hero’s thoughts (Ross)

It risks killing the stakes or importance of the story they're trying to tell. There's also supposed to be humor from Wakandans in this movie as well. Shuri is supposedly very funny.
Why is he so worried about Ross.
'Unless he's hoping Ross's humor can put audiences at ease and sets up them for the gems to be dropped later.

Royalties, he didn’t create shuri.

Fair point. Probably wants that character to be a stable part of the franchise and a popular character with audiences.Royalties, he didn’t create shuri.
