Terry Gilliam: "I Hated Black Panther. I Think The People Who Made It Have Never Been To Africa."

[Sex Luthor]

Does he know wakanda isn't a real place? It's a fictional country from a comic book. It can look how ever they want it.

What did he want? Half naked black people running around with plates in their lips? Think Africans can't evolve or something.

 

[The Fade]

Africa has the most abundant resources

Had it been left alone and they nationalized the resources then they would have more than one wakanda on the continent

While the US goes through neverending recession

It’s not that far fetched, but it’s BASED ON A COMIC

Btw Monty Python is trash

Dude probably has Cecil Rhoades posters in his room

Another white person telling us how we should be black

 

[Devilinurear]

Meh the only good movie he made was 12 monkeys

fukk his opinion

 

[ATownD19]

The director literally studied in Africa.

 

[The Fade]

Blacks being portrayed in a fictional idealized utopian society is "unrealistic".

Funny cause Mansa Musas empire was more progressive than any western nation

Meanwhile, white people can make shows about Vikings and the medieval times without being 100% accurate.

Isn’t it funny how we constantly see angry white Viking berserkers in media

But there can’t be an angry straight laced masculine black man with a nice head of hair or square jaw because “it’s not the right message”

But we are gonna get a new Viking tv show every 10 years

Africa can never be inspiring, can never be a place of dreams. It has to remain a place in darkness so that cacs can massage their fragile egos. Why should black kids have a fictional place they can aspire to; afterall their history is one that doesn't matter. I can't wait (I'll be dead but still) until their inevitable demographic decline accelerates and their descendants have to look out onto a world ruled by our great-great grandchildren.

 

[Reece]

Yet he didn’t say shyt about Thor

 

[Reece]

And the fact is Africa IS that beautiful. One trip to Google will tell you that. They just show you the worst images they can in the media.

And plunder its resources.

 

[PharaohAtem]

Who cares about what he has to say

 

[Child_Of_God]

There’s literally hundreds of films and tv shows depicting European myths and folklore such as Harry Potter, Lord Of The Rings and Games Of Thornes but yet he is upset at Black Panther for featuring a secret technologically advanced African country.

Terry Gilliam criticises BBC’s diversity plans: 'I tell the world now I’m a black lesbian'

 

[Michael's Black Son]

 

[Neuromancer]

His movies suck.
