No spoiler but the lil shyt I noticed right off the bat...
Too Short playing when the flick started off in 92 Oakland
A white director would not have put that extra touch on it

Folks clapped at the end of the flick, when Sza song ended right before the mid credit scene, and and the of the final after credit scene.

T’Challa: “Maybe we can heal you.”
Killmonger: “Why? So you can lock me up? Nah. Bury me in the ocean with my ancestors who jumped from ships because they knew death was better than bondage.

It’s shyt like this you don’t get with cacs making anything black. Just hits you hard. :wow:

My mind straight flashed to those strong people who choose to do that in that moment. :mjcry:

Dying on their own terms: suicides aboard slave ships

Even 50 years from now if I'm still alive I'll always remember that line, like I said when I croak its gonna be in my will to toss me in the ocean

This is what I'm fearful of...is BP overshadowed ala Heath to Batman?

In Dark Knight, it was ok, because Batman was more established...here with BP just starting out :patrice:

I wouldn't say overshadowed, just as a black man from the moment killmonger is on the scene everything he says resonates
