Perhaps my search skills are lacking but I just jumped over to Ain’t it Cool News And The AV Club, noted for their movie coverage, and any mention of this movie is strangely absent.

Yeah, heard this joke. It's only funny to people who don't know Marvel Comics. Vibranium has been in the comics, and has been Wakanda's primary export since Stan Lee created it in 1966.

So, yeah, haha. It's somewhat ironic in its modern context.

I watched that abortion of a movie, Dr. Strange and I'll watch this one too.  Through redbox.

I want to be up on the storyline before Infinity War hits & it looks like a good portion of IW will happen in Wakanda.

Still need to watch the latest Thor too.

Marvel cancelled the BP comic last year due to poor sales
it takes about 30,000 sales per month for a title to "make it"
BP's last issue sold less than half that

doesn't mean the movie will or won't be good

This is true.

Guardians of the Galaxy was a multiple-cancellation comic book. It is one of the best Marvel movies to date.

I never count Marvel Studios out.

Captain America's shield was originally nothing super special in the early days of the character, then when Lee came up with vibranium, they retconned his shield to be vibranium. In the MCU it has been mentioned a number of times in the Cap and Avengers movies, and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

In fact, wasn't a whole subplot in Age of Ultron about Ultron needing vibranium from smuggler Andy Serkis in Wakanda to build his army of Ultrons?

I'm slightly tempted to go see it at the more 'urban' theater in town sometime opening weekend.  The audience reactions will likely be more entertaining than the movie.

I AM interested in seeing it, but probably won't be in theater unless I do the above.  Well-armed, of course.  Would probably also wear soft armor under a jacket if I had any.

Blade came out in 1998. Spawn came out in 1997. Granted Spawn is more like an anti-hero, but still. Giving "Black Panther" the credit for being first on-screen black hero lead role is a lie. Shit, you could probably say Shaft was the first black people's big-screen hero.

Yep. I was a Blade fan. It was a well done action movie. I did not care that the lead character was black. Same thing for all the other black actors I have paid to see in good films over the years, like Sam Jackson, Morgan freeman, Will Smith, Denzel Washington, etc. They played good roles in good stories. It did not matter their race.

Now comes Black Panther, in which race is ALL that matters. Not my opinion, just read the advanced reviews.

Probably have to watch it to keep up with the Marvel movies. I first saw the black panther on Captain American Civil War. I watched Thor: Ragnarok last week and saw Dr. Strange which hit me because I didn't watch Dr. Strange before that one. Funny thing is I watched Dr. Strange last night and saw the clip from Thor: Ragnarok in the ending credits. I wonder if Stan Lee will make his appearance in this one

Black is the black blackness of black.  When black stops to black about the black, the black really becomes black.  Black times the black black, black in the black of the black.  But then when black blacks black blackness, black black black.   So, really, when black blacks about black, it is black.

I'm not real excited about it but I'll watch it at some point. I enjoy the Marvel movies. The 100% rating is obviously extremely suspect though...it still may be good.

The hype reminds me of Wonder Woman...so many ridiculous reviews about a movie that was overwhelmingly not overwhelming in any way. Gal Gadot is smoking hot, but the rest of the movie was predictable and boring. There's so many other awesome female heroes out there, why did everyone make such a huge deal about Wonder Woman? (see Sarah Connor, Ripley, etc). I suspect Black Panther may end up the same way....

ETA- from the link:

Business Insider said that "Black Panther" arrived at a perfect time. "Like 'Wonder Woman' last year, 'Black Panther' is a project that fans have been waiting decades to see. And just like 'Wonder Woman,' it was worth the wait."

Ugh, great
