The "BLACK PANTHER" Movie Review: Down The "Woke" RABBITHOLE To WAKANDA! part 1

ChroniclesOfJudah 14436:26

Transcription

I'm at peace, so I got so many requests from brothers asking me to do a review on the Marvel Studios blockbuster film, The Black Panther. I was able to catch it last week, but I did not have the time to do a review until now. Let me say that I thought that was a very, very good action movie, great superhero film.

I'm just going to touch on certain facets of the movie that I predicted in my preview would be very prevalent in the film. Here on the CBS Morning News, they happen to have a segment with the director of the film, Mr. Ryan Coogler. I'm gonna use that as a backdrop as I comment on what I saw in the movie, both on a two-dimensional level and the three-dimensional level. Meaning, what I'm just going to evaluate the film on its own merits in regards to its entertainment value, and then I'm going to delve a little deeper into some of the ideological components of the film that they were trying to promote.

Anyway, they want to talk about it, I'm going to chime in. As I'm making this video, it is already now over the $700 million mark, and just a little over a week, which speaks volumes in regards to Marvel's marketing plan. They've been marketing this film since Captain America: Civil War, and it's paid off. I stated previously, I don't know if I said this in the preview or not, I may not have touched on it in the preview, what Marvel's plan is to address a lot of the "quote-unquote" third world countries as a demographic, which were largely untapped. Because, as we all know, most superhero movies are based off of promoting the Caucasian male as the superhero, as the white car, or the avatar of a Tsar. This is the first film where they've actually taken on a so-called black man and made him a Tsar for the movie, and that's truly all the film is really about.

I know that I did touch on that aspect in my preview. I'm going to delve a little deeper into that, but this movie is gonna, is gonna hit at least $1.5 billion, there's no doubt about that. And Marvel very slyly understands that once again, there was a demographic of people of color, what they call the so-called third world countries, that they have not pursued as, as ferociously as they should have. They decided with this film to strongly market to the "quote-unquote" woke era that we're in. And of course, you have entire continents like Africa, South America, you have regions like Central America, the Caribbean, of course, the so-called black demographic here in America, also Southeast Asia, South Asia, Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands. A lot of people do not understand that there are many so-called unquote negroid peoples in those regions. You have islands like Vanuatu and Fiji, or yeah, people there who look just like so-called black people. Of course, they're of a different tribe and a different lineage, but due to the mass marketing of colorism in today's world, they now many of them identify as "quote-unquote" black. So that is why Marvel was very, very crafty in how they chose to market this film for the last year, and it's gonna result in that movie, no, approaching somewhere around $1.5 billion in overall revenue when it's all said and done. Because you're also going to have repeat viewers, people going back to see the movie over and over again.

When it opens this holiday weekend, the character created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Make Stan Lee and Jack Kirby a couple of Kabbalists, for those who don't know. Stan Lee is a Kabbalistic, he of course is a so-called Jewish man, as was Jack Kirby. They were the two who created most of the heroes in the Marvel Universe, which has resulted in the Marvel Cinematic Universe being the most lucrative studio in Hollywood right now. If you, if you're able to make a film for the Marvel Cinematic Universe that is a star-turner, you will become an actor or an actress who can partake in the Marvel film, make it $20 million, you're $25 million, and then you can go off and do your little arthouse projects on the side if you want. That's what Chris Evans, the actor in Captain America, does. He makes the Marvel movies, and then he does his little artsy movies on the side. But Stan Lee was the creator of characters like Spider-Man and Fantastic Four, as you can see here, the X-Men, Incredible Hulk, so on and so forth, the Black Panther. And when you know what you're reading, when you know what you're looking at, you know that he is clearly heavily steeped in in pagan mythology, or what they call "quote-unquote" pagan mythology, which is really just the coded version of the story of a Tsar and the the progenitors of humankind, the people who really helped craft civilization after the flood. That's truly who the characters of the pagan mythology czar.

So, for example, as I've stated, you have Superman who is by ow, Batman who was con su, you have Spider-Man who utilizes the "quote-unquote" mono core neutral hand sign, so on and so forth. Batman's also heavily influenced by an a Mayan god known as Comas Oats, if I remember correctly. Brothers could look it up. I believe it's both C.A.M.S. and Michael A.Z. as in zebra, O.T.Z., the bad god of the Mayans, which basically was a, a Mayan version of Khonsu, the hunter god of ancient Kemet. But I'll be delving a little bit more into this as we go along. And of course, the Incredible Hulk, he's the Green Man, he's the God of transformation, he's a Tsar reborn as a rule. The Incredible Hulk is just a Tsar reborn as her rule. That is why oftentimes, if you do any research on either assault or Haru, they're oftentimes depicted with the green skin, representing regeneration, vegetation, so on and so forth. He was also known in the somatic system as Two-Moos. You brothers read the scriptures, you can read about Two-Moos in Ezekiel, the eighth chapter, I believe around about the 16th or 17th verse. And what that scripture shows you is that even the elders of ancient Israel, behind closed doors, they were worshipping Two-Moos. That's why I tell you brothers all the time, the elite in this society, off camera, behind closed doors, they venerate Pan, Bacchus, whatever you want to call him, it's the same entity as Two-Moos, who was just a somatic version of Heru. That is who they venerate, bottom line. That's why I did that video on Oprah where I showed her worshipping the the radiating eye of Heru, 66, alongside the Fantastic Four.

He has appeared in dozens of Avenger titles and his own series of comics over more than 50 years. A highly anticipated movie starring Chadwick Boseman is the first major superhero movie with a black lead character, black director, black writers. Now, pay very close attention to this layout right here. This was purposefully done where they had Chadwick in the middle as a saw, of course, in all black, and then of course, he's accompanied by his consorts, that being Isis or Aset and Nephthys. That goes back to a ritual in Kemet where the the the Pharaoh had to be accompanied by the two goddesses on either side. But once again, I'm going to be delving into this because there were some, there were some role archetypes that they very slickly and craftily tried to propagate in this film in regards to the role of the woman. We all know that many women went and saw this film and went gaga over the fact that there was some "quote-unquote" strong women, but there was a reason for that. It was in reference to the Kinetick Mystery School system.

Writers and a predominantly black cast. The Los Angeles Times calls it a superhero movie whose characters have integrity and dramatic heft. I agree. I do believe that many of the characters had "quote-unquote" dramatic heft. I thought that the actors did a phenomenal job from the top to the bottom, from the young sister Letitia Wright, who played his sister in the film, Lupita Nyong'o, Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan. I thought that they were all phenomenal, particularly Chadwick Boseman. Now, there's a huge undercurrent of "quote-unquote" pro-black and internet revolutionaries that are lauding the character of Killmonger, the performance of Michael B. Jordan. He was great, but I thought that it was far more difficult to play the role of the Black Panther, which is played by Chadwick Boseman, because it demanded more nuance. When you play a villain like, like Michael B. Jordan played, he himself has acknowledged that he took the, he took the performance of Heath Ledger as the Joker as in heavy inspiration for his depiction of Killmonger, and you can see it. I also saw, quite frankly, I saw a lot of Tupac's performance and Juice. When you play those type of characters, you can really go all the way in with it. So it's easy for people who watch films like that to get caught up in how energetic the performance was. But I thought Michael, part of me, I thought Chadwick Boseman's performance was, was in certain scenes, very poignant, very nuanced, very pristine. I thought the brother did a great job, particularly in the scene where he spoke with his father about why he chose to leave the young boy after he killed his master, his father killed his brother. Though that was a phenomenal scene.

Is a director of Black Panther and he joins us at the table. Good morning to you. Congratulate that New York screening last night. I wish that you could have been in the lobby and you could bottle the feeling that people had when they look at Gale doing the third clap. They walked out because everybody was going, "Wow, wow, wow." Denzel Washington said this: "I laughed, I cried, I cheered." I saw Steven Spielberg recently in gender party, and he knows people, so he's already seen the movie. And a lot has been made about the black cast, and he said, "But this movie transcends race." Well, the cast has to be all black because the character is a so-called black man, and it takes place in a fictional society known as Wakanda, which, by the way, is based off of and is a metaphor for ancient Kemet.

I've seen some reviews on YouTube with people trying to delve into what the film was actually about. I've seen people who are trying to cast themselves as as decoders, especially brothers who claim to be Israelites. I saw one where the brother was talking about, "Why did they keep trying to show us as Africans?" Because he was referencing the scene in the, you know, in the king's court where T'Challa was presiding over a meeting of, you know, the high nobility of Wakanda, and of course, you had one of the characters there who had the big plate in his lip. And the brother who was trying to review the movie and trying to decode it stated, "Why do they keep showing us as Africans?" When that will, first off, bro, the film is not in reference to ancient Israel, it is in reference to ancient Kemet. Once again, the Black Panther is a modern-day manifestation, a modern-day representation of a Tsar or Osiris, the hidden god. As I tell you brothers incessantly on this channel, a Tsar was always depicted as wearing the leopard skin cloak, as we know today. A panther is a heavily melanated leopard. And the proof of that, at the very end, when you guys remember, if you guys remember, when the Black Panther finally squares off against Killmonger, Killmonger has on another version of the Black Panther suit, and in his version, the helmet can turn spotted like a leopard. The priests of Osiris in the ancient world always wore leopard skin.

For those of you brothers who read the scriptures, if you're in the knowledge or whatever your belief system is, if you read the Bible, but particularly for your brothers in the knowledge, many times people will try to disprove that the Israelites were black by trying to cite a scripture in Jeremiah, the 13th chapter, in the 23rd verse, where it states, "Can the Ethiopian change his skin? Can the leopard change its spots?" And they'll say, "Well, if the Israelites were black, why would Jeremiah highlight the skin color of the "quote-unquote" Ethiopians who were Kushites?" That verse was poetic. It was meant to convey that the Ethiopian priests wore the leopard skin cloak. Even when you look up that term, "skin," before "Can the Ethiopian change his skin?" it's the same term or the same word that is used for animal skins. Jeremiah was referring to the wickedness of the priests of Osiris, but it had a double meaning. That's why he stated, "Can the Ethiopian change its skin or his skin, and can the leopard change its spots?" He was referencing the priests of Asar, meaning they could not change. Even down to today, the modern-day priests of Asar, who the Catholic priests, when you find that someone as a Catholic priest, you pretty much know what they're about. And I'm sure that certain people may have an issue with that, but it is what it is. But that's not the scripture that you would have to be concerned with if you're trying to prove or show someone that the people of ancient Israel were people of color, dark-skinned or so-called black people, as that's all throughout the scriptures.

When Joseph's brothers came to see him, they did not know that that was their brother. They thought that that was actually a high noble of Kemet. And if you read Genesis, the 10th chapter, it tells you that the descendants of Mizraim, or the people of Egypt, were the descendants of Ham. So we know that Ham was a so-called black African, or the progenitor of the so-called black Africans. So it's not that difficult when you piece together what the scriptures are saying. But what really brothers should not be trying to go back and forth for people in regards to the, the race or the color of Israel. Anyway, that's a waste of time. And people are trying to go back and forth with you about that. If you're instructing someone and you want to show them things very quickly, of course, we know that when Joseph's brothers first came to see him, they did not even recognize him. They thought he was just another Egyptian noble. He had to tell them that, "I'm your brother." That means what? That he was pretty much indistinguishable from a Kemet overlord. And as we know, once again, when you read Genesis, the 10th chapter, it details that the people of Kemet were descendants of Ham, who the Caucasian historians themselves tell you is the progenitor of the "quote-unquote" Africans. So it's just basic stuff, it's nothing to get caught up in.

Even when you go to Acts, the 21st chapter, it tells you about how Paul was called a "quote-unquote" Egyptian. Why is that? Because during the time of the Greco-Roman Empire, the term Egyptian was a colloquialism that was used for all so-called black people, pretty much how the term African-American is used today. It doesn't mean that Paul was an actual Egyptian. We know that he was an Israelite of the tribe of Benjamin, but just the fact that he was confused for an Egyptian tells you what? That he was a so-called black man. And they already have depictions of St. Paul there, you know how he looked. But that's neither here nor there. Let's just get back to the point in regards to this film and the erroneous decoding and breaking down of the film in an attempt to pretty much use it for what it's intended to be useful, which is as a psychological operation. A lot of brothers are assisting Hollyweird and promoting this film as a jumping-off point for "quote-unquote" black pride. That's not really what it is. What it's for, what it should be for, this is entertainment. But what the, the concept of what Conda "quote-unquote" has become is just a black version of Oz or Neverland or Wonderland, a place that doesn't exist, but that so-called black people can now identify as heaven "quote-unquote." And it's truly just another way to promote ancient Kemet, and through the promotion of ancient Kemet, the belief system of ancient Kemet, which is the veneration of Asar.

Many people got upset with the ending when the Black Panther decided that he was going to assist the entire world. Asar was the savior of the entire world, not just the people of Kemet, not just so-called black people. So that is why you have to be knowledgeable about your belief system and what you claim to want to follow. If you're a so-called pro-blackity-black internet revolutionary, you know, the people who love Kemet so much, once again, Asar was to save you for the whole world, not just for the people of Kemet. And that is why they were able to create that dichotomy between him and Killmonger. So, well, well, let's see what Mr. Qu Blair has to say. To a whole another level. So here you are, Ryan Coogler. This is your debut. So it's really, this is your third movie. Well, it's not his debut. You just said it's his third movie. Fruitvale Station and Creed, both heavily lauded by viewers and critics. This is his first film of this "quote-unquote" magnitude where he's basically being used to assist Marvel and Disney in propagating a certain energy worldwide. The main intention for this film was to promote globalism and feminism. It was not to promote so-called black empowerment. And a lot of brothers are caught up in the "quote-unquote" pro-black element of the film because Coogler was able to mix in some very accurate observations on the so-called black community and the issues that our people have due to the perceived disconnect between where we are now and our origins. But believe me, he was working according to an outline. He didn't just sit down and write the script from scratch. At the end of the day, the Black Panther film is part of the, of the Marvel Cinematic Universe lexicon. So the film basically has to connect the, the previous film of Captain America: Civil War with what's to come, that being the Infinity War saga, which is going to come out later on this year, Avengers: Infinity War, which will basically be a conglomerate of "quote-unquote" superheroes fighting against the return of a force from outer space. I wonder who they could be talking about.

But it all started when you're a little boy going to the comic book store. What happened? Me to order cousins of mine, I was like seven years older than me, was always reading him, and I thought he was a cool that she is books. It felt like one of myself, you know? About time I was like nine and ten. No, it's really X-Men, really, and Spider-Man, Batman. Me too. Except no Batman for me. I was a Marvel dude as a kid. I was not into DC. But the X-Men, also, that is another allusion to Asar, or Cyrus. That is why they had the term X. Stan Lee referred to them as the children of the atom. The children of the atom are who? The children of the sun, children of the sun god. The term X is an allusion to Osiris. That, by the way, is for those of you who pay attention, that's what the handshake that Wakandan handshake, where, you know, they do a little dap and then they cross over their chest. That was for Asar. The same reason why the, the Egyptian pharaohs were, why their corpses were put in that pose. That is for Asar, because they're going to the crossroads, they're going to be judged to see if they're acceptable into the, you know, into the, into the afterlife. Remember, Osiris, Asar, is the lord of the afterlife. He's the one who decides whether or not you're officially allowed in. Like they have to wait, that night, they have to weigh your deeds in the scale of Ma'at, and to Hooty or Thoth, they weigh your deeds in the scale, and then Asar ultimately decides if you're able to come into the afterlife. But that, that was the point of that handshake, the X over the chest. That, that was an illusion, once again, to the god of the dead, Asar.

My love, a common workshop, you know, in Oakland, and ask the guy who was behind it, to can he walk me over and show me, to Charlie, show me Black Panther. Yeah. And so what does this mean to you? Because I wonder if you feel tremendous pressure. This movie has been highly anticipated. I feel there's so much riding on it. You have such goodwill. Do you feel the pressure? No. For you guys also, let me say this about this phone, and many people may have saw it and felt like it was, it was something that they had never seen before. Most action films in Hollyweird are gauged, not so much, not so much based on the components of the storyline, but how well they're able to retell the same story. Because, as I, as I always say, most of these films are just a retelling of the story of Asar, or, or, you know, his reemergence as Heru.

There was a film that came out back in 2014 called Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. And if you pay very close attention when you watch the Black Panther, it's very clear that they were heavily influenced by Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, because the same dynamic, the same relationship dynamic between T'Challa and Killmonger existed between Caesar and Koba. For those of you brothers who remember Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, the film starts with the ape colony out in the woods trying to establish itself. They have their own code of laws. They're pretty much isolated from the rest of the world, which has been decimated due to a plague that was started by a vaccine that was tested on the apes. I believe it was called the, the 112 vaccine. The company was known as Genesis. That, that film was much more closely aligned to, to trying to create the or utilize the metaphor of the apes as so-called black people here in America, then, then this film was. This film was more to, to promote ancient Kemet, to create a rabbit hole for so-called blacks around the world into ancient Kemet, which the energy of ancient Kemet is what is used to, to galvanize this world, no matter what race the people are. They're still feeding off of the energy of the Babylonian Kinetick Mystery School system.

But just to get back to the point, the rapport between T'Challa and Killmonger was clearly, to me, modeled after the rapport between Caesar and Koba, whose relationship was shattered after Koba realized that Caesar was more concerned, or as concerned, with the humans as he was the apes. And if you remember, in the same way that Killmonger wanted to utilize the vibranium weapons and give them to black people all across the world so that they could arm themselves for a revolution, that's the same way that Koba bum-rushed the armory and took all the weapons, gave it to the apes, and they were able to take down the, that human uncle, even in, uh, in the Bay Area, which precipitated the war for the Planet of the Apes.

But, you know, as many brothers have already seen and touched on, this film is also meant to demonize the "quote-unquote" black militant archetype, the so-called black man who was not going to conform, he's not going to give in, he does not want, he does not want any form of diplomacy with the Caucasian. All he wants is revenge. It was meant to demonize that archetype. It was also meant to demonize this "quote-unquote" black American and to, to help foster the understanding that the, the people of the "quote-unquote" black diaspora, who we know to be the descendants, for the most part, the people of the book, that they're different from the Wakandans. And they brought out in the film, if you remember, when Killmonger was first brought into the King's Court, they treated him like an outsider until he was able to prove his lineage by showing the tattoo on his bottom lip. What did, what did T'Challa's sister call him? She said, "An American black." That's what she called him. She didn't say that this is a brother. She said, "An American black." Why is that? Because, as I tell you guys on my channel, the other races align themselves by their tribe, by their clan, by their lineage, not by skin color. Skin color is a corporate designation. It's not a race. That is why when America was first incorporated and established, they called the Asian man yellow, they called the Native Americans red, they called the so-called, they called the so-called black man black, they called themselves white, so that they could establish color codes. That's all it was about. This film revealed a lot. Remember, at one point, T'Challa even said that he was not concerned about all people, he was only concerned about Wakanda. Absolutely. You know, sort of pressure every day. Oh, no, no. Thankfully, I grew up playing football, playing sports, playing in college. Yeah, no, I've been under high pressure situations that, you know, nothing.

Let me know. While I see this still shot here, the same where the, the head of his security, you know, the leader of the Dora Milaje, his security unit, which, as most people probably know, is inspired by the, the all-female military of Dahomey, which was an empire that was along the west coast of Africa, so-called Africa, you know, in the late medieval time period, from around the 1500s all the way to the late 1800s. It's also in relation to the concept of the Valkyries, who were the protectors of Odin. But just to get back to the point, where she was flying the spacecraft, she was utilizing Merkabah. Did you notice that she was sitting in the lotus position, and she had her hands, she had her hands in the form of the Yoni, forming, you know, the, the so-called OK sign with both her hands, because she was, she was using her mind power to fly stone as Merkabah. All right, M.E.R.K.A.B.A.H. Once again, that's in reference to ancient Kemet.

To me, you know, even though the performance of Lupita Nyong'o was very impressive, as well as everybody else in the cast, it's amazing to me that I see a lot of brothers talking about the strong sisters in the movie. Lupita Nyong'o's character was, was in reference to the mindset of the modern-day liberal female. She was the agent of chaos throughout the whole film. She was the one who was constantly rejecting and rebuffing the advances of T'Challa, who's supposed to be the king of Wakanda. And they depict them bickering back and forth. Oh, [ __ ] I shouldn't even not even say bickering, it constantly shows her rebuffing his advances. All she was was a spy. What a female spy basically is, as a whole, because female spies, they have to obtain their information by sleeping with people. That's what they do. Which may have been what was implied in regards to why she was so protective of the Caucasian CIA operative. I mean, I found it very interesting that the script called for her to be a protectress for the CIA operative. If you guys know this also, when the Caucasian CIA operative was brought back to Wakanda, it was the sister who hailed him. The sister played the role of Shuri. She was a goddess of healing, and witchcraft, astronomy. She basically was like the female version of Toth, or Thoth. So Shuri is spelled S.S. and S.H.A.R.I. Just another manifestation of the mother goddess. And of course, as I tell you brothers, they had the, they had the Overlord, the top god entity being the female goddess Bastet, who they called the "quote-unquote" panther goddess, who was really just another version of Sekhmet. Now, a popular comic book character who was inspired by Bastet is Catwoman. But did you notice how they tried to make, or I shouldn't say tried, they successfully created the dynamic where the woman is the top, the top entity, the top goddess. All these Black Panthers are men, but they're getting their power from the mother goddess. That, once again, is in reference to ancient Kemet.

Okay, and if you notice, as I stated in one of the first history videos that I did, maybe the first history video that I did, while just lightly touched on history, they confirmed what I told you brothers before, the people of ancient Kemet are the Nilotic peoples, the people who inhabited Uganda, Kenya, South Sudan. Those are the descendants of the ancient people of Kemet. That is why Wakanda is located right in the middle of those three countries. So-called black Americans are not the descendants of the people of Kemet. This film was made as a rabbit hole to pull you guys down into that pro-black, fair, pro-black Kemet, what kind of mentality have you guys bugging out of your mind. And if you pay very close attention to many of the videos that have been made in the aftermath of this film, what, oh, so-called black people coming out the theater and they're dancing and all that, they're making dance videos. You notice the men are always in the back. I'm watching the film, I'm like, "Damn, this film about the Black Panther is about his sister. His sister's in more scenes than him." And they have a scene when she's throwing up her middle finger at him. Like, come on, I know you're trying to convey that there, but, you know, they have a very close brother-sister relationship, but that to me was disrespectful.

Also, before I forget, let me also touch on the first fight between T'Challa and Killmonger, which was just another confirmation that the character of the Black Panther is, is Osiris or Asar. And the story of Osiris, depending on which version you read, and one of them, Set is able to trap him in a coffin and put him into the waters where he emerges in Phoenicia. He's pulled out of the water in Phoenicia, and he, his coffin is placed in a strategic place where a tree sprouts out of it. In other versions, he's killed, he's cut up, his body's dumped into the water. Well, if you notice in the, in the fight that he had with Killmonger, Killmonger dumps his body into the river, he gets pulled out of it. And how does he get revived? How does he get brought back to life? Lupita Nyong'o has to pull the "quote-unquote" heart-shaped herb, which is really just the represents the lotus flower of Heru. She pulls the heart-shaped herb, and his sister and his mother escape with the white man to go find him. Now, I mentioned in the video that I did on Wiccans, I may have mentioned that the concept of the triple goddess, the triple goddess, basically is a, it's basically a concept based on the understanding that the goddesses come in three forms: that what they call the old crone, the mother goddess, and then the young daughter goddess. And that is why they had to have all three of them come together with that flower to save him. Because depending on what version of the story of Asar you read, sometimes Isis is mentioned as his mother, sometimes she's mentioned as his wife, sometimes she's a sister. So they had to have all three come and save him and give him that heart-shaped herb, which we know, which, which, and you know, of course, in the story, is the magical penis or the magical phallus, but also the lotus flower, which is the flower of Heru, the flower of Shiva, to bring him back to life. And of course, he had to commune with the ancestors, previous Pharaohs who lived, so that he can get an understanding on what he needs to do. But I thought that was the best scene in the film, when he confronts his father about leaving that little boy. That I believe was meant to touch on the, the absence of the "quote-unquote" black father and the importance of having the "quote-unquote" black father, the black patriarchy. That was to me the best scene in the film, and I thought that that was the best acted scene in the film, particularly by Mr. Chadwick Boseman, who did a great job.

You got to know that out, you know, focus on catching the ball. And Forest Whitaker, he played Toth, he played the advisor. That was his role. Notice that the Black Panther, both the Black Panther and Killmonger, they had to drink a beverage that looked very, very near to blood brew. Well, particularly the Black Panther, they had to drink that beverage in order to have the Black Panther power stripped from him to engage in in combat with another person, and then to get the Panther power back, he had to eat of the "quote-unquote" heart-shaped herb. But yes, Forest Whitaker, he played Toth, or Thoth, which even the director notes is this movie's version of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Too much, they can stop you. Familiar work, you know, but it was always there. So Ryan, what were you focused on when you're making this? You, what's that thing always right in front here, in front of your mind? Okay, what's in front of his mind is to understand that he has to stick to the outline that Marvel gave him. He was given some gravity to to write a script. Him and some other people who also assisted him in writing the script. I believe that they said Donald Glover assisted him. Another brother named, too, remember correctly, John Robert Cole, who's married to a white woman, by the way. He's a brother, but he's married to the so-called white woman. They assisted him in writing a script for this film, which, once again, I would give it out of ten. I will give this movie probably about an eight and a half, maybe a nine. It's one of, it was one of the better Marvel movies that I've come out. I enjoy Marvel movies, as I stated, I grew up reading the comics, so I mean, they, they pretty much got me. But most of the films that come on, I thought, as far as an origin movie or the first movie, and what I'm sure it's going to be a trilogy, I will put it right there with Iron Man 1 and Captain America 1. It's probably the best or first installment of any Marvel Cinematic Universe movie that I can remember. So I think that it's the best Marvel movie that I've seen. No, I would take, I would take Captain America: Civil War over this. I would also probably take Captain America: The Winter Soldier over this as well. But I would give this a slight edge over Iron Man 1 and the first Captain America. Also, I thought that, I thought that the Captain America trilogy is probably second best, in my opinion, second best comic book trilogy that I've ever seen, outside of the Dark Knight trilogy. I thought that the Captain America movies just kept getting better and better in regards to storytelling, characterization, etc. But this film is right up there. I will give this probably eight and a half or nine out of ten.
