Wouldn't we be still missing the vibranium tho

Like he says in the video the only real questionable thing would be how Wakanda remains an absolute monarchy. I viewed the ending of the movie as Wakanda opening it's doors and adapting to the outside world with whatever that would entail. I'd imagine that it would be a slow development to a constitutional monarchy after necessary reforms were passed, as suddenly swapping a monarchy for a democracy can be a little destabilizing. Just ask the Republic of China and the Weimar Republic how that went for them.
If Iron Man 1 was released today, sargon would think it was pro-war profiteering.

[QUOTE=01271;53169503]Black panther has politics inside of it and people on Twitter see wakanda as a cool amazing insular nation like what they want to do with the wall in the usa.[/QUOTE] Which means the message of the film has clearly gone right over their heads, because it literally ends with T'Challa deciding that Wakanda needs to stop being isolationist and begin sharing its wealth and knowledge with the world.

I actually thought Black Panther was kind of brilliant because of the way it sort of turned the immigration debate on its head, reversing the roles. Its position is that yes, there may be risks involved in letting people into your country, but it's still better to take those risks than to leave less fortunate people to suffer because you're afraid of them or what they might bring with them. The movie establishes that [sp]T'Chaka leaving Eric alone and fatherless in poverty[/sp] was a terrible thing to do, whether or not [sp]he ended up becoming Killmonger.[/sp]

[QUOTE=GrizzlyBear;53170539]Oh believe me he would find a way to shove his narrative in. TLJ had nothing to do with SJWs either.[/QUOTE] As strange as it might sound he'd probably made up his mind about TLJ before even going to see it. A lot of anti-SJWs have it out for Star Wars in general.
