Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Official Trailer

Trailer looks pretty solid.

Looks great.

Ballsy of them to attempt to show functional ankle wings. That's something that seemed like a good idea in the 1940's but jumping that from comic to modern screen could come across as ridiculous.

Looking forward to the Wakandan/Atlantean War.

Let's fricking go. Calling it now, Feige/MCU will get back in a groove:



Wish they would've been a little more cryptic on that final shot, but can't have everything

Give us some more Kendrick beats in this one and it's going to be awesome

Looks good to me

A few observations:

Looks like Ironheart will appear. I sincerely hope they do better with her than they did in the comics. She was supposed to be a Miles Morales-esque continuation to a beloved legacy character, but she was very poorly written which caused her to fall flat in her series. One of the things I love about younger heroes is that they are often seen being thrilled/amazed with the heroics, which can get lost when you have all adults dealing with a million emergencies and such.

Shuri as the Black Panther follows the trend of the comics, but Shuri was pretty different in the comics. I wonder if they'll have time to give her a good arc to grow into the role or if the movie doesn't give her time with Namor, Ironheart, etc all being introduced.

I am a bit saddened that we won't see the Namor/T'Challa dynamic, but the real reason for their animosity stems from the events of AvX, when Namor has a fraction of the Phoenix-force and (with the heroes trying to stop the X-Men with these abilities hiding out there) attacks and floods Wakanda's capital, killing a huge number of people. Namor views it, even after the fact, as an act carried out during war while T'Challa does not. They only work together during times of crisis, and once T'Challa nearly kills Namor during the incursion event.

Marvel really needs to nail it with this one. I don't give a shite about their shitty tv shows that could of and probably should of been movies. At least i haven't since loki and wandavision.

My only problem is that Shuri was by far the most unlikeable character from the original Black Panther. Yay, let’s make the teenage know it all who is smarter than everyone on earth and is never wrong the new Black Panther.

Not bad, but it seems to be a very female-heavy cast. The majority have backstories which allows for their placement and use to make sense, but Riri though? They're going to have to re-write the character from the ground up in order for her to fit there (or anywhere, really).

I like the Polynesian influence on Namor, but not the beard nor the out-tilted ears.

Namor is a classic type A personality (with a little bi-polar thrown in for good measure).



Contrast that with this...



I just don't get the aura of smug, aristocratic arrogance from this version.

Is that supposed to be Sub Mariner with little propellers on his ankles?

If so, that's incredibly silly.
