These two guys tried that ‘tall man in a trenchcoat trick’ to see ‘Black Panther’

TwitterFacebook

Marvel’s latest hit Black Panther has audiences and critics swooning, and some people will do anything to see it.

That includes moviegoers resorting to tactics you’d only see in cartoons, a la Vincent Adultman from Bojack Horseman.

As per a video by Twitter user @steveslikecups posted on Saturday, two people were spotted in a trenchcoat trying to score themselves a “two for one special” to the movie.

Shuri from ‘Black Panther’ may be a princess, but she’s queen of our hearts

TwitterFacebook

It’s hard to say who among the incredible cast of characters in Black Panther reigns supreme. But if you ask this writer, there’s be no question: Shuri, T’Challa’s 16-year-old sister and badass princess of Wakanda, deserves to be crowned queen of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Aside from her sheer show-stealing cool factor, Shuri is the brilliant inventor ensuring Wakanda remains the most advanced nation in the world. She equips her brother and their entire people with the cutting-edge vibranium technology, armor, and weaponry that enables them to kick such serious ass – like in that fantastic Busan chase scene.  Read more…

A theater played ‘Fifty Shades’ instead of ‘Black Panther’ and what a hilarious nightmare

TwitterFacebook

There are two big blockbusters out this month: You might have heard about Black Panther — the critically acclaimed Marvel film about black superheroes in the fictional land of Wakanda. The other is Fifty Shades Freed, a widely criticized installment about two lovers in Seattle. 

Clearly, two very different movies.

So when the Atlantic Station theater in Atlanta accidentally started playing Fifty Shades Freed to an audience that was expecting to be transported to Wakanda, things got hilarious.

Twitter user @ChefWaites shared video footage from within Atlantic Station of the unfortunate mixup, and you can hear people in the background laughing incredulously at the mistake. “It’s the opposite movie!,” one moviegoer exclaims.  Read more…

What the end credits scenes for ‘Black Panther’ mean

Excited for Black Panther? So are we. Which is why we’re rolling out obsessive coverage with Black Panther Week.

Spoiler alert: This post contains major spoilers for Black Panther. 

It’s a real tragedy that Black Panther had to end – the film’s so good, we wanted to keep it going forever. But at least it went out with a couple of parting shots.

We’re talking, of course, about the two end-credits scenes. One, which comes midway through, puts a final button on a storyline that’s been simmering throughout the movie, and lays the groundwork for things to come; the other may be hinting at big things for a certain character. Read more…
