>M’Baku is trouble for Black Panther. He’s the ruler of the Wakanda’s mountain tribe and has serious issues with how T’Challa is fulfilling his role as the nation’s new king.
>But M’Baku was also a potential problem for Black Panther the movie.
>That’s because the comic-book version of this villain, who first appeared in Avengers #62 in March 1969, encased himself in white fur and attacked the hero under the moniker “Man-Ape.”
>Rather than abandon one of Black Panther’s most famous antagonists, Marvel Studios decided to rescue M’Baku. The character is a hard-bitten, ruthless warrior, but as played by actor Winston Duke (Person of Interest) he also has dignity and strength. Not that this makes him a nice guy.
>And in a fictional culture where leaders take on the symbols of native animals (like the panther), his tribe’s affinity for the gorilla is regarded as something noble — not cringeworthy.
>Still, the filmmakers felt that “Man-Ape” would never be an easy name for newcomers to accept.
>“We don’t call him Man-Ape,” executive producer Nate Moore told EW during our set visit. “We do call him M’Baku.”
>The problem was self-evident. “Having a black character dress up as an ape, I think there’s a lot of racial implications that don’t sit well, if done wrong,” said Moore. “But the idea that they worship the gorilla gods is interesting because it’s a movie about the Black Panther who, himself, is a sort of deity in his own right.”
>So he’s still adorned with elements of fur on his arms and legs and sports a chest-plate that hints at the animal that is symbolic of his tribe. But he doesn’t wear the full gorilla mask that, in the comics, often made him literally look like that creature.

>Director Ryan Coogler and his co-writer Joe Robert Cole (American Crime Story) borrowed some inspiration for the character from Marvel scribe Christopher Priest, who had an acclaimed 1998-2003 run on the Black Panther series.
>“You learn that M’Baku is essentially the head of the religious minority in Wakanda and we thought that was interesting,” Moore said. “Wakanda is not a monolithic place. They have a lot of different factions.”
>In Priest’s story line, M’Baku was enraged that his White Gorilla cult was outlawed, leading to a clash with the Panther. The character’s exact role in the film is still being kept under wraps, but the filmmakers confirm that M’Baku and his Jabari tribe are, once again, not happy with the young, new ruler (played by Chadwick Boseman).
>“A lot of the writers who did some of the most interesting work around the character, they treated Wakanda like a truly African country,” Coogler said. “When you go to countries in Africa, you’ll find several tribes, who speak their own languages, have their own culture, and have distinct food and way of dress. They live amongst each other, and together they make the identity of those countries. That’s something we tried to capture. We wanted it to feel like a country, as opposed to just one city or town.”

This is the real new Star Trek.

They should get old Trek actors to cameo in this. First for Gates McFadden.

Brannon Braga and Jonathan Frakes are both directing episodes so it's possible.

>Sophie Turner wasn't surprised by the level of fan anger that followed the Season 5 rape of her Game of Thrones character, Sansa Stark, one of many instances of physical and psychological abuse inflicted on the young woman in HBO's hit drama.

What controversy is that? About a fictional character being raped in a show based in the medieval age??? Are peple losing their minds?

This was largely because it didn't happen to Sansa in the source material, and there was no reason in the show to put it in except for the sake of creating controversy.
Why nobody is talking about this kino?

Can animated kino be discussed here? Iron Giant is easily one of the best animated movies of all time.

Tell us all about it, then.

never watched it as a kid. Just watched it last week for the first time. gave it a 8.5/10

It really isnt. Every single character is a trope, and the animations are God-awful.
Somehow /tv/ wants to fellate as badly as it does, and mind you even

Could this movie have been better if ScarJo wasn't the Major?
>>
>>84909722
Definitely. It wouldn't have fixed the many other problems but ScarJo sucks you out of the movie, just awful.

>>84909722
Nah. Scarlett Johanson was good casting, seeing how she acted in Under the Skin or Lucy, but the direction and scriptwriting was regular Holywood shit, trying to pander to everyone and ending up with the blandest shit possible.

Why are you even asking? There won't be an MJ in the MCU because there already is an MJ. Even if she's not the real MJ what's the point of having two MJs?

Can she even do an American accent?

Didn't WB rushed Ben to finish Live By Night?

>>84908930
Is Ben still Batman? He's no longer director, and he's no longer writer, it just seems that acting in a movie under those circumstances would feel kinda cucky.

Why does (((Hollywood))) discriminate against Asians?
How come feminists don't care about Asians or the racial wage gap?
