Soooo…Doctor Doom?
When Tosin stood up in front of the entire Wakanda population and said he was the real black panther and it’ll always be that way, and he was even bigger than Miles would ever be…that was awesome.
Yeah, then when it turned out he had the power of Multiple Man and there were hundreds of Tosin, Miles Panther’s and they started dancing the Batusi, It was like, a star is born!. We’re gunna be rich!
You are all so silly.
Freaking loved this movie! Namor going to cause a cultural shift.
“By the way, you all keep calling me Tosin, but it is pronounced Toussaint”
Non-spoiler review:
Overall, fairly disappointing. It’s the same exact formula that they’ve used over and over again. Zero risks taken and extremely predictable. It felt like two movies jammed into one, so you never quite get the appropriate build up and back story to make character choices believable. Homages to Chadwick were well done and emotional, but outside of that I didn’t feel a ton of gravity even in the most high-tension scenes.
C+ (Better than Love and Thunder, not as creative/fun/interesting as Multiverse of Madness)
Spoilery thoughts. Don’t proceed unless you want details:
1) What a wasted intro for Riri. Zero backstory. And, cool, she’s a kid genius and built a suit, but then Wakanda has suits, too, so it completely minimizes her value. She has a fairly big role, and really does absolutely nothing in the movie. She’s a good actor, so I’m hoping her series treats her better than this. 2) Also, I’ve never thought the MCU’s Shuri was the right choice for the next BP, and I still don’t. I just don’t buy what she’s selling in this movie (or really what she sold in the first BP). She had a moment where it looked like she might go to the dark side, and DAMN it would have been so cool/unexpected for her to go that route. Sadly, nope. They took the safe “hero questions good/bad and at the very end suddenly does the right thing.” So overdone and tiresome. I thought Multiverse of Madness had its share of flaws, but at least that took some risks and was fairly creative. I don’t think Marvel buys her either, as they are covering their bases with the intro of T’Challa’s son.
I learned something new from the movie: one can be impaled completely from stomach all the way through ones back and just bounce back and continue fighting.
Very impressive
Im hoping the next MCU movie has a beheading, drawn & quartered and everything just re-attaches itself. I mean, hey, its comics. Anything goes.
What it takes to kill someone was very confusing in this movie. Some people were impaled, undoubtedly had major organs utterly destroyed, then got up and walked it off. Some got a somewhat surface-looking wound, and didn’t make it.
Movie sucked and they cut Doctor Doom why there was a mid credits scene and no end credits scene.
I felt like the best part of the film was the Marvel title screen with Chadwick.
Riri was by far the best part of the film - incredible character development; really feeling like she was a genius (because everyone said so); great film sequences in MCU history; I mean it was just perfect
Which one is you?
Just watched it. Thought it was pretty good, not amazing but I enjoyed it. Thought it was way better
and more ‘MCU’ than that joke of a movie love and thunder.
Spoiler/spec question:
why would they introduce T’Challa’s son as Tosin knowing a Tosin was recently created in Marvel comics? I ask bec I know there’s some skepticism on this forum w regard to Tosin spec. Has anyone changed their mind w regard to Tosin spec? For? Against?
if in comics they make tosin bp son, then i’ll call the movie kid him, untill than its nothing
His son’s Haitian name is Toussaint, not Tosin. His Wakandan name is T’Challa.
Could it just be the pronunciation of the same name?
