The first reactions for ‘Black Panther’ are in, and yes, you can believe the hype

The hype around Black Panther was certainly palpable.

It already has the biggest pre-sale numbers for a Marvel movie, and even Lupita Nyong’o — who plays Nakia in the film — struggled to get tickets for the opening night.
