Black Panther is the most talked about movie of 2018

Even before it has hit theaters, “Black Panther” has become the most-tweeted about movie in the world this year.

Breaking the Twitter record for 2018, “Black Panther” has amassed more than five million tweets on the social platform revolving around the Marvel movie.

“Black Panther” is the top tweeted-about movie this year globally, with “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” coming in second place and “Maze Runner: The Death Cure” coming in third. In the United States, “Fifty Shades Freed” is also one of the top tweeted-about movies this year.

Becoming the most tweeted-about movie of 2018 is not the first record “Black Panther” has broken. The hotly anticipated film has also earned its title as Fandango’s quickest-selling first-quarter film in regards to ticket pre-sales, beating past juggernauts like “The Hunger Games” and “Beauty and the Beast.” The flick is also on track to become Fandango’s top pre-seller among all superhero films.

Urgh, Grace Randolph needs a muzzle.

Most likely she said something bais about black people but acting like she wants the film to do well. Sad most people don't understand this

The box office projections so far is a good sign.

Same person that thought wonder woman wouldn't do well and when that went the other way round, all of a sudden she became a fan lol.

They still have to market hard.

Urgh, Grace Randolph needs a muzzle.

People should really pay less attention to anything she says. She says a lot of things to be a contrarian and get views to her videos.

Black Panther beat out every previous marvel film in pre sales for IMAX

“Black Panther” is four days away from its wide release, and has already become the biggest seller of advance Imax tickets of any Marvel title, Imax Entertainment CEO Greg Foster told Variety on Monday.

“We have a movie that has clearly captured the zeitgeist,” Foster said. “Pre-sales are the surest way to see how momentum is going: The momentum is gathering steam as opposed to slowing down.”

With each passing week, box office estimates for the film’s opening weekend have climbed, reaching more than $150 million on Monday. The film could potentially have the largest February opening weekend ever, beating out “Deadpool,” which opened in February 2016 to a weekend box office total of $152 million.

Foster declined to provide specific figures on pre-sales, but said advanced Imax tickets for the film do not appear to have peaked yet.


“A movie often peaks 10 days before it opens,” he said. “This movie feels like it’s going to peak the day it opens. It’s remarkable.”

Additionally, the film is attracting audiences all across the country. “There are no borders on this. The momentum is continuing on both coasts and in the middle; in red states and in blue states. In giant cities and smaller suburbs.”

The Marvel movie, which so far has a 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, stars Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Angela Bassett, Danai Gurira, Martin Freeman, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Forest Whitaker, and Andy Serkis.

“Black Panther” is directed by Ryan Coogler, based on a screenplay written by Coogler and Joe Robert Cole.

I'll give her credit for treading carefully with this one. Her latest video she says she's going to wait till the movie come's out before she starts popping off.

Oh boy she's said some stupid and racially insensitive ***t in the past though. I've personally clashed with her in the comments section over some of things she says.

I don't see her racist, I just see her as stupid and tactless.

The last time I saw anything with her talking about Black Panther she called it a Blaxploitation film. The people in the comments of the vid really went in or her for saying that.

 

[Kane52630]

Her Dear White People trailer reaction tells you everything you need to know about Grace.
