Black Panther The Official News and Speculation Thread - - Part 11

[Iceman]

he's gonna be given the keys to the kingdom. To do the film precisely as he wishes.

Hopefully we get the sequel by 2022.

 

[KevTravels]

Hopefully we get the sequel by 2022.

I wanna wager sometime in 2021. Either Feb or May 2021.

As I understand it, he basically has about a year to write the script (mid-late 2018 through mid-late 2019) then they want to begin actual production work either late this year or early next year, so assuming a similar production schedule to the first one, we're probably looking at an early 2021 release.

How One Deleted Killmonger Line Totally Changed The Ending Of Black Panther

With reshoots Ryan wanted to do a new ending, and it's a whole bigger thing with the scene where Killmonger dies... What we shot originally, and in the script, was Killmonger saying 'It's beautiful, but what are you going to do for everybody in the world who can't see this?'... And it was great. It was powerful, it was awesome, but it was problematic for a few reasons. One, we realized that just as a character, for the journey of T'Challa, he can't get the answer to the movie and what he needs to do from the villain - like straight-up exactly what he needs. And that's kind of what was happening. Secondly, it was a great performance, and [Michael B. Jordan] brought it, and it was painful to watch because you kind of don't want this guy to die, but it didn't fit his character.

One thing that we did was looking at all those Top 10 lists of best endings ever for movies, and we found in a lot of these videos it was one of two things: it was either the twist ending... or it was The Godfather... Basically, the first time you meet Michael, he's with Kay and he's telling her he's not like his family. 'That's not me, Kay. That's them.' The last scene we see him, he's telling Kay he's not like his family... But then he walks and the door shuts, and you know everything is different. But it's the same conversation! And so it's the circular nature why those kinds of endings feel like closure even though it's open-ended.

Ryan went off in his lab and did his brilliant work that he does as a writer, and wrote the final scene in Oakland where he goes with Shuri and shows the Royal Talon fighter to those kids, and specifically a kid that kinda looks like a young Killmonger. Basically, him showing them that, and buying those buildings, and the Wakandan Outreach Program was in spirit what originally we had Killmonger tell him. 'If people can just see this. If people can see their own potential then things would be different.' And so that was done in a new scene where we see what T'Challa has done. And then at the very, very, very end, the last line is that kid looking at him and saying, 'Who are you?' And that is the theme of the movie, of identity. Who are you? And he doesn't need to answer it, because he just answered it for us.

[NotNickFury]

Well done. I can see it possibly getting one or two of those technical and design awards, but not Best Picture.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Congratulations to Black Panther on its Best Picture and other Oscar Nominations

 

[Silver Surfer]

Big congratulations to Black Panther and Marvel Studios. Well deserved and well done!

First Comic Book Movie in history to get a Best Picture Oscar nomination.

 

[Fallen]

The director of Green Book is sexual predator and the screenwriter is an islamophobe. And the director of Bohemian Rhapsody is a pedophile. Disgusting.

Well done. I can see it possibly getting one or two of those technical and design awards, but not Best Picture.

Green Book will probably win Best Picture.

 

[Iceman]

Congrats to Black Panther!

Absolutely deserved, its still my favourite MCU movie and one of the best comicbook movies made imo. And no its not because of its cultural impact it deserves the award but I honestly believe its a great movie in its own right in the way it explored its main theme of identity. What your identity is, how that can be shaped by your environment, history and background. How well each and every character spoke on that theme throughout the movie where they didn't feel tacked on. But last and most importantly, in the middle of it all how well the two main characters conflict spoke on that main theme.

Especially in the current climate where identity whether it be national, race, gender seems to be at the forefront of all society issues/conversations, a movie that touched on that between the african/african american diaspora when it comes to race/national identity and did it that well with that end credit scene deserves every award it gets. Killmonger is still the best written villain in the MCU for me, pretty much every character had their value to the story and the costume, set production and soundtrack are amongst the best in the MCU if not the best.

Yes the action could've been better and although I feel the cgi issue is way overblown its still a slight on the movie in the third act, but the story, characters and themes and how well they combined is what spoke to me about the movie so all things considered it couldn't have been a more deserving movie to represent the genre.(p.s I still believe dark knight should've got it first) but thats past.

It’d be a travesty if Green Book won, though.

 

[I Am The Knight]

People are already raging. Congrats to BP!

 

[Zyraquis]

It is definitely an also run in best picture. Lady Gaga will win best song to bag another one for her eventual EGOT. Luckily A Star is Born isn’t in original score so it might have a chance and the rest is anyone’s guess.

Could get 2-3 design, costume and possibly score.

 

[JOE]

This movie deserves all its praise. Hope it comes home with at least 2 or 3 Oscars!

 

[Dboi]

People mad at BP getting a best picture nom

 

[Zyraquis]

On the other hand I see infinity war has a decent chance to snatch the special effects given other candidates.

 

[Frodo]

10 years after The Dark Knight, the Academy rectifies its mistakes with a well earned nomination. Congrats Black Panther.

Wakanda Forever!

 

[Fallen]

On the other hand I see infinity war has a decent chance to snatch the special effects given other candidates.

I personally think Infinity War or Ready Player One should win.
Go Infinity War! Go!

 

[HBarnill]

People on the internet are already losing their minds over this:

“TDK didn’t get a nom but this did!?!?”

“What’s so special about it!?!?”

“It’s because they’re black!”

Yeah, remind me to never go online during these days.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

Awesome to see BP make such a splash at the Oscars. I may have loved IW more, but for what this movie represents it completely deserves it even if it only ends up winning like 2 or 3 Oscars.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

I mean, the movie was good. But Best Picture good? Nah.

I'm on the cynical side of this. It's too convenient after recent backlashes for the Academy snubbing both minority-led films and superhero films. They're killing two birds with one stone to prove they consider everything.

 

[Chesterfield]

Well if Hollywood weren't so arrogant with their white supremacist tendencies since day 1 then you wouldn't feel so cynical about it.
