BLACK PANTHER ALL BLACK CAST NOT ANOTHER BLACK MOVIE!



BLACK PANTHER ALL BLACK CAST NOT ANOTHER BLACK MOVIE!

February 9, 2018

It behooves me, betwixt me and encompasses portions of my emotions and thoughts in regards to the discouraging remarks of a particular group that wanted to start a negative poll in regards to the movie Black Panther.  A comic character from Marvel Comics that has some in an uproar because even before it was released.  It had high expectations and it also had the high anticipation of its release.  Great and wonderful reviews.   
Is this another "black movie"?  A lot would like and some call it just that!  Another "black movie"  Well how can that be true?  The character Black Panther comes from a black family.  Or Afro American. The character is from the jungles of Africa that of course eventually leaves and makes his way to America.  That's in the comic book.  

However, the movie is based and strictly on the life of the Marvel Character in Africa.  This movie grossed $150 million dollars out in its first weekend!! More than any DC or Marvel movie that has come out!  So what?? Are we angry that a movie with an all-black cast?  Not a black movie made more than the other DC or Marvel movies? More than X-Men?  We mad?  Have we issues? So silly to waste so much time and embarrass themselves by starting this "hate" group on FaceBook!  

No black coalition has started a campaign against any all-white movies that made big money when they come out in the box office.  So why all the unnecessary hate and ugliness?  Maybe jealousy is the main focal point here that not an all-black movie with an all-black cast grossed the highest on its opening and outgrossed a plethora of movies at the ending of 2017 and the beginning of 2018.  Wow!!! Nerves are exasperated and shot! 

While melanin is trending.  While all of these wonderful campaigns of people, races, and cultures are now making waves in the world.  Some groups really have issues with those that have a bit or more melanin in their DNA.  Amazing! 
Black Panther has made some wonderful and beautiful historical imprints in Hollywood.  With an all Afro-American cast that exploits their talents on the screen.  Most of the cast are those actors/actresses that have been in the industry and we all know whom they are.  With new and talented actors/actresses that have been marking their place on the screen. 

THE CAST 
Michael B. Jordan 
Lupita Nyong'o 
Danai Gurira,  
Martin Freeman, 
 Daniel Kaluuya, 
 Letitia Wright,  
Winston Duke,  
Angela Bassett, 
 Forest Whitaker,  
and Andy Serkis. 

What shine!  What beauty! What talent to embrace the cameras and the big screen.  What grace and elegance this movie was given to us to view and hear through Dolby sound.  Also look how far we have come in the entertainment of movie theatres!  We can have wine, beer, dinner along with the staple of an ice-cold cup of coke and extra butter movie theatre popcorn! 

Not because of its an all-star cast of black people.  Because it is a great, wonderful piece of work bringing a vision to life from a comic book.  So now the big screen!  We, us, me "Just Toy Talking 2 Much!! Gives this movie of grandeur 4 lips!
