black folks reactions to Black Panther have been pathetic

[TheDarkCloud]

Not really.

Black Panther is revolutionary in that the entire principle cast is Black.

The same cannot be said of the others.

Those two weren't heroes either and The Spawn movie was panned :

I'm only only on page 3 and I wish I had 12 more palms to rest my face in.

Look I think folks are gassing a bit too much for a movie that at its core actually is just another Marvel movie when you strip it down to the plot....but y'all are also going too far for calling people c00ns for enjoying it too

 

[Premeditated]

I wish black people had this same reaction towards a real black hero in the Nat Turner movie.

I bet the same reaction wouldn't go towards a Haiti Revolution movie as well.

Well generally people prefer superhero movies to historical films. So it's not out the ordinary for black folks to prefer a black superhero movie to a black history movie.

Up Up and Away is a classic

How many damn BP threads do we need?

How many angry white people at Black Panther tweets and shyt do we need? Agents, c00ns and White Supremacists hate this fukking movies existence. They talk about it all day, shyt on it all day and cannot help themselves. OP is no different.

Everyone else is just having a good time and enjoying the weekend and the film. Then you got a bunch of mfers in the corner mad and complaining that everyone ELSE is having a good time


Miserable fukks will be miserable fukks. 13 pages... And why? Because Black folks are happy nationwide instead of feeling miserable and hopeless.

Can't have that shyt. Got to try and shut that down.

it's cool that there is a movie about a black superhero and I'm going to see it tomorrow, but it's just a fukking comic book movie. I'll seen people talking about they had never see that much black excellence on the screens and they are going to name their son t'challa. That shyt shows an inferiority complex and reeks of craving white acceptance "omg Disney is making a movie about black ppl we have made it yaaaaas"

we are in a system of white supremacy and this movie will not make a drop in the bucket of change. we act like abused children politically. if i want to see a black hero I can look on the fukking mirror

I feel you fam... It's both pathetic as it is tragic....

Some Black folks' reactions to this movie is a bit over-the-top, but there's also a lot of racists out here who are salty over this:



There's some fanatics out here just like with a lot of other movies, but I ain't gonna focus on them. Most of us are enjoying the movie for what it is.

sniff sniff...

 

[resistanze]

I haven't watched the movie, but there's something ironic about a bunch of keyboard militants spouting 'the truth' at a forum revolved around music and sports (entertainment industry). You nikkas act like you're saying something deep - you're really not.

But please, continue to fight the good fight behind the screen of your Macbook Pro. This place essentially is the black Reddit at times.

These people are just dumb.

Your Asian associates/friends care, but for what reasons? from what you said, it's to see Asians in a movie being released...also maybe it's being released by a major studio to North American audience

They don't care about the release to inspire, wishful think, aspire, and motivate because there are already other sources for that. In other words, they are keeping things in perspective by enjoying the movie and ensuring Chinatown and Koreantown, remain that way regardless if Crazy Rich Asians was released

I used the term rare because you are defending the hype behind BP via representation and success, which are two commodities that readily applicable, so it doesn't justify the hype. There's more to the hype that goes beyond Black folks being on screen and selling alot of tickets, which is the the grip that folks have about the movie

Again, living in the age of social media and the high speed innanet, if you want inspiration, aspiration, wishful thinking, and motivation, they're readily available. The difference is in the individual's interpretation.
The fact that the other readily available inspirational, aspirational, wishful thinking, and motivational examples, that are based in reality, didn't, haven't, and couldn't have the same effect that a fictional movie has, is the the grip that folks have about the movie

Nope, you're just projecting your negativity and bitterness onto other people, you're upset that other things didn't take off but this is...oh well, get over it; Your whole basis of negativity is flawed, point-blank, period.

They (Asians) are hyped because it's a movie being produced in Hollywood that gives them representation variety. Most Asians are not "crazy rich" and so the movie DOES have the ability to act as a motivator or inspiration to the many, very middle class and lower class Asians that populate North America. You're assuming that they are keeping perspective simply because it fits your narrative that only black people are 'dumb enough' to get hyped over a movie that 'does nothing for our community'.

For some reason, though you're likely not a point over 'average' on the scale, you think you're smarter than people and have 'figured out' society and life. The reality is, you have no idea of why people do what they do nor the motivation behind it unless they tell you. Like I said, most people understand that socioeconomic revolution won't be built off the back of one movie, most people also know that we've had positive representation in the media before...Fresh Prince of Bel Air, The Cosby Show, Sister Sister, That's so Raven, Smart Guy, all great depictions of black family life...doesn't mean we don't need one more. Celebrating the release of Black Panther as another positive representation does NOT take away from those other prior efforts, in fact, it only serves to enhance and ground them even more, but if you can't see that, well, that's on you.

When did I defend the hype? Point that out....cause I said wishful thinking is justifiable? That doesn't count as defending - you made a point and I refuted it.

And again, living in the age of social media, doesn't change that one more positive representation isn't hurting anyone. The difference isn't the interpretation(even similar interpretations are not 100% the same) it's what's there to select from. Almost everything you consider the basis of your reality was started by someone based on a stroke of inspiration, wishful thinking and motivation from internal and external factors- the world we live in was not ready made, it was developed and created by creative, hopeful, wishful and aspiring minds.

"The fact that the other readily available inspirational, aspirational, wishful thinking, and motivational examples, that are based in reality, didn't, haven't, and couldn't have the same effect that a fictional movie has, is the the grip that folks have about the movie"

LOL, that's so dumb, and you should feel dumber for having even typed it out. So, what? You're mad that other, older 'white owned' media isn't getting the same reaction as this, newer 'white owned' media? Remedial.

can't wait to see your thread on why you aren't spending money on black friday/celebrating christmas

nikka wtf are you even talking about? And no, I don't shop for anything on Black Friday because you can get cheaper prices on everything throughout the year

Blade came out like 20 years ago. This shyt is really pathetic.
