Ep. 28 - We Declaw ‘Black Panther’
At the expense of causing fur to fly, Bill and Chad smell something pretty bad in the kitty litter as they do an extensive break-down of the 2018 Black Panther movie from Marvel. Try not to get scratched as you listen! As usual, we examine lots of details of the movie to cover all the bases with our assessment of it, so THERE BE SPOILERS!
Show Notes:
3:00 - We confront the white colonizer elephant in the room.
6:25 - How the filmmakers shortchanged Wakanda.
10:55 - An action film needs impressive set pieces.
16:53 - No buttons at the end of any scene.
22:40 - Talk of how Marvel cheaped out on not-so-special effects.
26:52 - Female empowerment.
30:45 - Hitting close to home, the Boko Haram scene.
33:21 - Paying tribute to the white boys.
38:35 - We point out some weak motivations.
42:23 - Summing up.
Thanks for listening!
