That toxic woman aside,
It is unbelievable that Marvel may be days away from getting all their movie properties back, or usable in one big sandbox with the Spiderman/Hulk/Namor complications notwithstanding.
The fantastic four seemed "possible" but the xmen seemed unthinkable given how profitable it was. But now here everything is on the table.
i guess 60 billion changes a lot of minds lol
The Lupita slander talk distracted me from finishing this conversation.
I just want to see Black Panther kick Dr. Doom and Wolverine's ass.
Ok, now I'm done.
Sturm un drang on film would be AMAZEBALLS
and a totally different type of film
There are natural action set pieces built in
- T'challa can beat up some lemurians going after the child
- T'challa and Namor fight and at the same time, Wakanda/Atlantis/Lemurian underwater naval battle
- T'challa fighting a reborn Green Lantern esque Klaw who died/evaporated in BP 1
while the meeting of kings and the tension builds throughout the movie as the world prepares for WW3
mostly just have to replace Ross's role (and i guess Klaw if you really want to)
I am curious on how they handle Klaw after this movie. I figure there's a 75% chance he goes through his DBZ transformation to be how he is in comics today, minus the jobber aura.
Really, Black Panther 2 is going to be so unpredictable. There's so much f*ckery and moving parts that , outside of a Monica Lynne appearance, I have no idea what they could be going for next. And that's with me (and all of us) pretty much knowing how this first film is essentially going to play out plot wise. Minus the specific details
extra unpredictable since a SWAD/invasion story is out after Infinity War. Can't really beat a Black Order invasion lol.
"coming for the throne" using M'baku seems unlikely because its too similar to Killmonger.
And thats all his rogues LOL. There is always the Malice (why isn't nakia in infinity war...) route with Achebe but... eh
I am still thinking its gonna be namor/atlantis related. except you need a 3rd party manipulating things to act as the "big bad" in the end. Unless they go full villain with Namor of course.
That's going to be the underlining issue coming up. The whole "coup d'etat" is played out after the first time you do it, and Thrillmonger already got first dibs on that. And so, M'Baku, Tetu, Achebe... yawn. Now, a slightly re-purposed Achebe with that Keith Ledger Joker vibe... that could be something. Although I guess that vibe would be more of a Mephisto vibe, who is someone i think should be a big bad; the or a manipulator of something. Just don't know how kid-friendly showing devils on screen would be for mickey tho and might be too abstract for BP to punch outside of that one time.
Maybe Namor, though that'd be a lot going on depending on when they would introduce him. And typically the first 2 solo movies seem more self-contained, with the 3rd film being the one where it's guest appearances and f*ckery galore. Outside of IM 3, which was just Tony and a kid talking.
yeah, achebe would just have to be someone who wants to see the world (wakanda) burn. He doesn't want the thrown, he just wants to see T'challa and the royal family suffer.
He could possibly be Nigandan who feels slighted that he doesn't get to be a special Wakandan. He is the one that finds and twists Nakia and turns her evil just to get back at T'challa. He'd have to be a terrorist with no real goal or motivation.
But... how can you out Joker the Joker though? gets a bit hairy.
Mephisto would work the best. I can't believe I forgot about him. He doesn't want the throne, doesn't want Wakanda, he wants T'challa soul. Hell, he could be behind the mistaken Namor v T'challa fight if need be.
The ending/third action could be just like priest... T'challa bursts in, one hitter quitter, rips his heart out, mephisto just laughs and teleports him to his domain. Ending is just like priest... T'challa offers him his soul, but it comes with a catch, as the panther spirits (or hell Bast if you want) rip him to shreds.
It could work... it would be different. but yeah... idk how the devil imagery and spirits and sh*t work with china (or dumb americans). hmmmm
