Half in the Bag Episode 141: Black Panther

Mike and Jay discuss the 18th (!) Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Black Panther. It's the first black superhero movie! It's the first comic book movie to actually feel like a comic book! It's the first critically acclaimed comic book movie! So many firsts!!!

Good thoughts. The continued African aesthetic and tribal ideas amidst the "technologically advanced" society didn't bother me though. Look how technologically advanced we are in the west yet there's still a church on every block and we continue to accept and practise objectively bizarre things like circumcision. We're an advanced democracy yet we award political victory to men who don't get as many votes as their opponent. Humans are garbage, man.

Disney need to buy the rights to Black Cougar, and then have the aforementioned big cat team up with slick Black Panther for some wacky odd couple high jinx. Perhaps they could travel to Gotham City together in a universe cross over to save underprivileged children and defeat Batman's male heteronormative rich white privilege...

Diplomacy, politics, morality, ground and air battles, sci-fi... This is the best Star Wars film we've gotten out of Disney yet.

Fair and balanced. I can’t see that one part of panther fight (not a spoiler) without having flashbacks to X-Men on top of Statue of Liberty “crown-swing” so yeah some of the cgi is old. But most is good and Michael B Jordan villain is very interesting.

I found the movie tedious and uninspired. It had interesting moments interspersed between long stretches of cliché.

Me too, also no one seems to point out at the end they go to America to help poor city folk, what about the poor African countries right next to them that are suffering from famine..

Joke making the rounds: The new Black Panther movie isn't the same without Peter Sellers

Did anyone else notice that the opening title card was screwed up?

After you mentioned Phantom Menace’s throne room scene, I was surprised that you didn’t also talk about the similarities between the ending battles.

I haven’t read any of the people’s comments. But I think this is the best movie that Marvel Studios has ever put out.

It's an Ehhhh movie. Not sure why so many people hate it but I don't agree that it's the best ever. Everything in this movie just felt half baked and needlessly random. Can we also acknowledge that the sister went "WHAT ARE THOSE?!". Possible the greatest cinema sin of all time.

I mostly agree with Jay. I don't love The Dark Knight (I know, I know), but I feel like this film could have dealt with its central conflict more directly. I do object to Mike saying the Kingship fight was "barbaric"-- the most interesting world building of this film is the idea of a country formed without western ideals, where terms like "barbaric" don't come into it. They see the Kingship ritual in the same way we see coronations for the British monarchy. I'm so happy this film was made, just to have some diversity in the box office, but I hope that it will lead to films that truly deserve the universal acclaim. Also, I think the film feels slow because the editing is off, especially in the action scenes. Everything was just a few seconds too long.

I actually fell asleep during the film. After the panther fell off the waterfall, I knew he would be found by the other clan and eventually regain his throne. It was warm in the theatre and my brain decided to have a snooze since it didn't have to be awake anymore because it already figured out what was going to happen.

This movie really impressed me. I'd consider it one of the Best MCU films to date.
