This was pretty damn good and had one sequence that was one of those rare moments were I felt like the movie was lifting me out of my chair.

Coogler’s 5/5 as a director with his floor being very good and ceiling being flat out great. I want to do some film theory reading and see this at least one more time because as much as I liked it, I could tell while watching that there is all kinds of stuff that went over my head. Even with that said, right now, I’d call this the best of 2025 at this point.

Also, if you’re gonna check it out, there’s a mid-credit scene that seems like it really should have been the end of the movie. You’ll want to stick around to see it.

I cannot agree more. No time now, but I'll expound on this movie in a spoiler another time.

I’ve seen multiple stories all in the same vein - a good opening box office, but they’re being negative about the budget which really wasn’t that high

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a story about a #1 movie at the box office where the focus was on the fact it wasn’t profitable after its first weekend.

Original idea makes almost 50 million in this market and people are talking about the budget… which was only 90 million? Incredible stupidity and wouldn’t be surprised if this is coming from some kind of BS anti-woke ideological crap seeping through.

Saw this again today at the Chinese Theater IMAX. This movie is great. And that one sequence I mentioned earlier in that format was just freaking awesome

Read some speculation that the movie bosses are afraid that the deal Coogler made (share of ticket sales upfront, he owns the movie entirely after 25 years) will become a standard so some of the other studios wouldn't be upset if it didn't pan out.



Read another story today that the share of the audience that was black was 38% - tying it with Get Out as the blackest opening day audience ever.

That whole angle is stupid. There are a handful of directors who have this clout and that’s it. The idea that this is gonna become the norm is pure fantasy.
