First let me start off by saying I salute him. Hes been grinding for years and hard work pays off, so he deserves the money and fame.

WIth that said. I have gave him time n time again to prove me wrong.

First was in Fruitvale Station, when his character would start getting mad and start talking hood, i said that he wasn't convincing.


Then in Creed, when he would charge nikkas up, I still felt it was unnatural.

I go into Blacc Panther thinking, maybe this is it. Maybe he finally found his comfort zone and can be a believable villian/tough guy. But still it wasn't there.

I dont care how much muscles he puts on or how many slugs he puts in his mouth, he just doesnt convince me as a bad guy/tough.
Maybe its his voice, idk

Uh ok so could you go into examples of what a convincing "villain" is because honestly Michael B Jordan has given a lot of depth to Killmonger.

If you don't like him fine but millions disagree.


Ryan Coogler's writing and directing gave that character depth.

U ever seen Michael B. Jordan without Coogler's directing and writing (Fantasic 4, etc.)?

Its like watching T'Challa when he doesnt have the Heart Shaped herb.

HE DIDN'T SEEM VERY INTIMIDATING FOR MOST OF THE MOVIE. HE CAME OFF LIKE AN ANGST FILLED BRAT MORE THAN ANYTHING. EVERYTHING ELSE WAS PRETTY GOOD. THE shyt TALKING HE DID IN MUSEUM WAS BELIEVABLE TO ME.
I agree. The museum scene was good. It's when he turns up in movies that he isn't believable to me

The museum scene was his best acting in the movie.

The way he was holding the gun when he killed Klaw looked a little :wrist:
