So basically you think it’s a great film, but not perfect. That’s pretty much the general consensus anyway. 

It’s easily the best effort from Marvel, and it’s a cultural milestone, which is definitely something to celebrate. 

no I said it was good, not great.

I literally knew you’d bring it up that you werent black and then once you said that the rest of your opinions came out. You still don’t seem to get why this movie is so important to people. And listing other movies like Django where the lead character is literally a former slave doesn’t help your cause at all. 

Young black kids get to feel like a king and a superhero by seeing this. Not a former bounty hunter slave, not a homeless guy who ends up having superpowers but the king of an entire nation. There aren’t any movies like that with such a budget and such exposure. There just aren’t. This movie is different for black people and you need to trust that they’re making a big deal out of it for that reason. 

You comparing it to any other “big”black movie or big superhero movie shows how little you understand about the importance of representation. The fact that it’s all of those things at once which makes it so important. 

 

doesn't necessarily make it objectively the best superhero movie. I'm complaining about the title and the over hype,

“It's good, it's great, I can respect that. But it is not the best.”

And then you say that your biggest problem is that it’s overrated. Except people are giving it great reviews for legit reasons. It has a tight script, great performances, a good message, and major cultural impact. There’s some shoddy CGI in a few scenes, but it’s not the worst. 

Maybe it didn’t work for you, but like you admit, it’s a good movie, so it deserves all the praise it’s getting.

In the same vein, I'm sure you were excited to hear about the stonewall movie, especially when they replaced historical characters with a white twink. 

added to the list of GGD comments that deserve to be in the bible

My biggest problem is that it is suppperrrr overrated. The ratings are crazy.

Critics are giving it high scores because either way they'd be labeled as racist or sum other SJW/oversensitive bullshit :rip:
