Black Panther reaction [see icon]
Feb. 16th, 2018 03:00 pmI couldn't sleep last night after seeing Black Panther, because my brain was just racing. Go and see this film if you can, people. It's worth every minute.
I also find it striking that in Phase 3, Marvel have got the guts at last to make films that are different. Thor Ragnarok has its own distinct tone. I haven't seen it, but I understand that Spiderman: Homecoming manages to take Spiderman in a new direction (it's on my list!). And Black Panther, again, has its own feel, while still definitely being a member of the Marvel family. It's a good thing, and injects some much needed new life into the franchise.
Reactions under the cuts are graded in how spoilery they are. I've put lots of white space in there, so you should be able to read and comment without being spoiled.
( Not terribly spoilery )
( Getting more spoilery )
( Properly spoilery )
In case it wasn't clear, I adored this film. Now I just need some 3D glasses and I'm good to go again!
