Wow! I really am impressed by this sneak peek!
I like how advanced Wakanda is, and the action and scale this movie presents. Will be cool!

[joetuss]

Good God , I can't wait. I've spent years telling my daughters how badass the Dora Milaje are, (Black Widow almost found out in Civil War) and now they'll get to see it on the big screen. Michael B Jordan hasn't let me down yet, and it looks as if his streak will continue, because N'Jadaka looks badass as well. I'm so damn excited for this movie, it's not even funny. I suppose this is how the majority of this community felt when the WW trailer was released, right? What a time to be alive 😊😊😊😊

I'm neither black nor a woman, but I'm really, really enjoying the amount of representation we're now seeing in superhero movies. Really feels like the tides of culture are changing as a result. Your comment makes me happy. :)

That looks so good. Enthusiasm pumped up even more.

My only minor nitpick is that didn't they establish in the other Marvel movies that Wakanda is an African superpower? I was just slightly confused by the initial dismissal of Wakanda in the teaser.

[filthysize]

Not really. In Civil War, when T'Chaka went to UN meeting in Vienna he specifically said that Wakanda is a country that has historically been isolated in the shadows but had recently decided to rejoin the rest of the world after the events of Age of Ultron (because stolen vibranium was involved).

[glprime]

This. Even in the comics, the culture and politics of the country has Wakanda being severely isolationist as a matter of national security. No doubt the path that T'Chaka (and later T'Challa) sets the country on, becoming more public, and starting a fight for the throne, will be a central theme of the film.

I was emotionally overcome, watching this. Tears in my eyes. I've loved this mythos, these characters, for so very long. To see it all realised... to see "Panther's Rage", Kirby and Priest all referenced so heavily, even in just these two minutes... thrills me in ways no other comic book movie has to date. The world's already found out how awesome T'Challa is - now it'll get to see how wonderful, diverse and fascinating the mythos, characters and culture surrounding him are as well.

HELL. YES.

[speedingtortoise]

This is going to be amazing

[cyberghostface]

Didn't occur to me until someone pointed it out that we're getting Gollum and Bilbo facing off again.

[joetuss]

......whoa

[dustbunny105]

I don't have much interest in live action superhero movies in general and I'm pretty bored of the MCU in particular, but the trailer looks amazing. I'm actually considering seeing this in the theater.

[plastefuchs]

I really hope that there will a good, proper villain, something the Marvel movies lack more often than not I feel.

All the other bits I have seen are looking good :3

[locuatico]

I think in the last few films Marvel has been trying to make their villains more interesting. Half of Doctor Strange was Mordo's path into villainy and GotG gave Ego some complexity

[icon_uk]

The villain (other than Klaw) is actually seen in the trailer, but looks a bit different.

[q99]

Yes, Black Panther *deserves* a better quality of villain.

[endis_ni]

Air punch of excitement!

[daningram.insanejournal.com]

Excellent trailer, but that poster makes it look like they cut and paste the actor's head on his own body.

Am I the only one who thinks that?

[lascoden]

Don't worry, you're not. Trailer's good, but that poster...well, nice concept, but it just looks off.

[q99]

The suit looks so much better in motion.

[tigerkaya]

Very exciting been waiting for T'challe to receive his due for solo.

I'm sure some will be miffed by the lack of Storm which I respond with she's with Fox. Therefore not my problem.

[joetuss]

Thank you, I appreciate your sentiment. It does in fact seem like we've turned a corner. First, with diverse characters in Power Rangers, then Wonder Woman being as successful as it as, and now this. My daughters, and my son are on Amazon at this very moment buying BP trades lol

[daningram.insanejournal.com]

Get the priest volumes first!

[joetuss]

Right, I made sure they did. I used to have them, but I lost them at a airport 😣

[commodus]

I hope there's a decent villain.
It will also be interesting to see if they tackle T'Challa's duties as a King. He's not the kind of guy who's going to be stopping purse-snatchers, he has to manage all the little facets of one of the richest nations on Earth. It's part of what makes his character so intriguing, because he is burdened with so much responsibility.

[michaelsaint]

This looks amazingly good!! I really hope it does not disappoint.

The poster looks a little too photoshopped with his face but I can let it slide.

Marvel Comics Cancels "Black Panther" Spinoff Comic About Wakandan Women...

[7dialsmystery]

....... 48 Hours After New "Black Panther" Trailer Drops.

Srsly, they actually did that instead of just postponing it till after BP hits theaters.
