Weekend Thread: Weekend estimates pg 38...BP 41.14....WIT 33.31

You can’t blame Oprah. The book is just not popular and the movie looks bad. -

As a woman of color, I am happy to support any film that stars a diverse cast. But AWIT looks silly so I won’t bother. -

It’s just as diverse as any other diverse movie. It’s special, one of a kind and different than any other blockbuster, because after 18th movies, its Marvel first 200 budget film given to a black director, starring a black superhero, with a ton of diverse black characters. You know as well as I do that there’s nothing that’s been ever released that comes close to Black Panther. Don’t be dense. It’s not cute. -

You don’t make any sense. That just means that Thor Ragnarok was also a diverse movie, shit Kevin Feige talked about casting a black Valkerie because he wanted a diverse movie. Just like Black Panther is. BP is a movie that’s getting so much attention because not only is it diverse (different nationality, different skincolors, different sexes), it is also a lot of “firsts”; first black director, first 200 budget movie in which the majority of the films diverse cast has black skin, etc, etc, etc, ETCETERA. -

Not only was it diverse behind the scenes (white male composer, white female cinematographer, black director, black female costume designer and production designer), it was diverse in front of it as well. Black, asian and white people from all over the globe were cast (UK, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Korea, the US, etc). Most of the diverse cast just happened to have black skin. -

Why is it pathetic, lazy and unprofessional? He has a right to his opinion. -

Oh please, no one was hyping this. Promoting a movie is not the same as hyping it up. Learn the difference. This, is the begin of hype. A top Disney exec told me flat out that they would be campaigning not only Black Panther for the big prize but also the upcoming Mary Poppins Returns (from director Rob Marshall), which he was raving about, particularly for star Emily Blunt. who he says knocks it out of the park in the role for which Julie Andrews already has an Oscar. And I expect Mary Poppins will be promoted and hyped to no end. No one was raving about AWIT. -
Elsewhere, BP is the highest-grossing movie of all time in West and East Africa; the top MCU title in the Netherlands; and has run past the lifetime of Thor 3 in Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam, demonstrating the strong appetite in South East Asia despite initial concerns. Woohoo. The Netherlands. It’s where I live.

Having charisma and star quality obviously made them succesful. No one is arguing that they’re not the biggest stars of their generation. But success does not equal talent. ETA: And this is not to say that J.Lawrence and E.Stone aren’t talented. They’re just not the most talented of their generation. In my (of course, subjective) opinion.
