28 Reactions To "Wakanda Forever" That Prove It Might Be The Best MCU Film Yet

    Representation matters.

    The trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is finally here and already breaking records, with 172 million views in the first 24 hours — more than double of the first Black Panther movie trailer.

    Marvel Studios Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

    It's a huge understatement to say that everyone is hyped and ready for the next chapter of Wakanda and the warriors of one of the most celebrated superhero storylines of the MCU franchise.

    Just a couple of minutes featuring stunning cinematography, a robust soundtrack, and a star-studded cast put the culture up 10 points — here's what they have to say about it.

    1.

    I really hope Black Panther 1 energy can be replicated cuz that was the BEST movie experience I've ever had it just felt like black people was having so much FUN. Like we was united in our element.

    Nobody ever come tell me Marvel have lost their sauce after that trailer. Nobody ever come tell me Ryan Coogler ain't a genius. Nobody ever come tell me that Black Panther as a movie is overhyped. I feel like its 2018 again. I'm in absolute awe

    The fact that this movie is clearly called WAKANDA FOREVER and not “Black Panther 2” 🤦🏽‍♀️ Anyway - I think we should actually dress in all white, in honor of Chadwick/T’Challa’s homegoing/life celebration. What y’all think? https://t.co/HbEgx2qkaT

    the trailer for WAKANDA FOREVER is a reminder the very best trailers act as gorgeous tone-poems on their own audio-visual merits and holy shit these two minutes are genuinely transcendent and healing and emotional storytelling by any standard

    The acknowledgment of the visual artistry of a two-minute clip of the film speaks to well-deserved respect of the cinematography and art department.

    I gotta give it up to the Wakanda Forever Art Dept. a team of true soldiers who did not give up, through many obstacles, big asks, long days, and almost two years. Y'all we left our hearts on the stage. For the culture, for Chadwick! #WakandaForever

    Ryan Coogler has only worked with female cinematographers for all his feature films, which is a dope fun fact. Rachel Morrison was the DP for FRUITVALE STATION and the first BLACK PANTHER while Maryse Alberti was the DP for CREED. https://t.co/qURPbIcOny

    The homage to the Black Panther T'Challa is setting the movie up to be one of the most beautiful tributes to not only the titular hero but the spirit of the late Chadwick Boseman as well.

    I'm glad Black Panther is giving the actors an opportunity to grieve on screen. Of course they'll recast eventually but everyone who worked Chadwick cast and crew alike deserve the opportunity to honor Chadwick in the very next BP movie that was close to filming when he passed.

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is following in the footsteps of the original film by bringing representation to cultures often overlooked in popular media and cinema.

    Words cannot express how much this means to MANY people here, including me. We’re constantly getting overshadowed in these types of movies. Always shown stereotypically. This is huge. HUGE. 🇲🇽 #WakandaForever

    That Wakanda Forever trailer made me misty eyed. Not just the sadness of the loss but the moment I finally get to see my people represented. ❤️ I loved how they portrayed America Chavez, but making Atlantis an Aztec empire just gave me goosebumps from head to toe. I am READY.

    tenoch huerta being cast as namor is big for all brown and indigenous mexicans. an actor who barely got any roles in his home country for those two reasons finally has this huge opportunity in one of the largest media franchises in the world. this opens the door

    Indigenous Guatemalan actress María Mercedes Coroy, who you might know from her great performances in LA LLORONA and IXCANUL, is also part of the cast of WAKANDA FOREVER playing Namor’s young mother 🇬🇹

    Atlantis being inspired by Aztec culture and Namor being played by Mexican actor Tenoch Huerta in Black Panther Wakanda Forever is about to be the hardest shit the marvel has ever done

    The Power Black Panther holds, making everyone emotional and in awe plus having Mexicans and Central Americans all giddy about Mesoamerican indigenous culture representation🔥 I literally cried when I saw Namor, his costume and art it's beautiful 🥺 #WakandaForever

    The music of Black Panther has a life of its own, so it's a no brainer everyone has high hopes for the new soundtrack.

    22.

    I don’t know if I’ll be doing art for the sequel, but I cannot stress enough how much of an honor it was to do the album art for the first film. I truly believe the sequel will be one of the most profound films Marvel has ever released. #WakandaForever
