And there's a wind noise which parallels what Queen Ramonda said to Shuri 'I found him in the breeze pushing me forward' and we see shuri denying it bc she's an objective scientific kind of person but at the end she felt it and heard it too symbolizing she has reached some degree of spirituality and acceptance towards death and loss and grief.. Really beautiful character arc for Shuri and cinematic detail.

The Oak, you're the only reactor I've seen that has noticed that line that Queen Ramonda said to Shuri about her ''finding him/feeling him in the breeze'' and I'd like to add too that at the end when we're given those scenes of Chadwick we only hear a breeze and see that SHURI WAS FINALLY FEELING WHAT HER MOM TOLD HER after she initially denied it, signaling that she has found a sense of spirituality and acceptance towards death and loss and grief and i loooove that character arc for Shuri bc she went from being the objective sciencey person to obtaining some wisdom and healing And even in that marvel logo sequence w Chadwick, they played that same breeze sound.

The thing that impressed me the most? They didn't CGI Chadwick back in. They could've - Marvel has that technology. And I will bet money that some studio exec wanted them to. But Ryan Coogler and the writers didn't. They made it a true memorial, where both us and the people within the story could grieve his loss in a meaningful way. I'm so happy they chose not to cheapen it that way. As much as I've love to see him one more time (and I was kinda expecting to when Shuri went to the ancestral plane), I'm glad they didn't. While it was painful to watch, we needed this. It was real, and that's a good thing.

[@asims713]

Cultural note: Although Shuri is Toussaint's blood relative (aunt), Aunty/Auntie is also a cultural name many African American communities ascribe to a woman who is important in some way; a loving leader, spirtual advisor, neighborhood mom. It is a term used to show love for a woman you may or may not be related to while acknowledging that we are all family and connected. When Erik/Killmonger uses the Aunty in the first Black Panther you can see the discomfort on everyone's faces. He uses it to dig at Queen Ramonda that she is his actual aunt and she didn't know it. Also he uses it to mock that she (and Wakanda as a whole) abandoned him and other black communities- they looked out for themselves and not the larger group like a "real" aunty would.

@@bi_smth It's normal in America it's just not every random older person you know - it's like your dad or your mom's best friend you knew growing up. And we don't usually use it in movies unless that's firmly established which is probably why it seems uncommon, and we don't refer to them as that to others generally without including that we aren't related. It's still definitely a thing though.

[@kiwio3o387]

No, it's used in America as well in that way. My mother made one of her best friends my (and my sisters) godmother, and we would always call her Aunt Donna despite no relation. I've seen other people be called aunt (or auntie) for different reasons too. Just because you don't see it in American movies doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Fun fact, Namor came before Aquaman-about two years, I believe. They had to change his backstory heavily for this film because in the comics, he drew way too many parallels with Aquaman (e.g. Atlantis was changed to Talokan, among other things).

[@agresticumbra]

Yup, came into comments to bring this up, but wanted to see if someone else had.

[@cringekiller348]

Aquaman stole Atlantis from Namor. They changed it because dceu butthurts and idiotic reactors like this would be clueless about Namor.

[@tristanpicotte7784]

You know, the name pronunciation I thought was incredibly clever. It's quite providential how close "Sin Amor" is, I quite enjoy the lore update, and hope it sticks moving forward. Though, I haven't picked up a comic in years, admittedly. I think it gives a new audience some representation.

[@Cream-2128]

@@tristanpicotte7784 can’t use that in comics because Namora and him names mean “avenging son” or “avenging daughter” in comics. It kind of works for mcu though since they have acknowledged they’re related and probably won’t since she doesn’t have her full powers.

This movie was the cast's way of grieving Chadwick. I love how much that plays out throughout the movie. You have to think... they knew Chadwick through all of these movies, getting to experience him firsthand in a way that... none of us ever will. From everything that I've seen of him, I have to believe that he was every bit as noble as he comes across on the screen. I saw this movie in theaters on opening weekend, and it... absolutely blew me away.

[@CaptainPikeachu]

Namor is pronounced properly as NA-MORE as how the character himself says it. Other characters uses the NAY-MORE pronunciation. On the dollar store Aquaman comment, Namor actually came before Aquaman by 2 years and is one of Marvel’s oldest characters and generally considered its first anti-hero. Namor has always skirted between the lines of good and evil depending on the story or perspective, he’s never fully one kind of character. And because Ryan Coogler based Wakanda on the cultures of various different kinds of real life African tribes, he and Marvel decided to do that for Namor as well, basing his culture on Mayan and other Latin American indigenous groups. This way it not only distinguishes Namor from Aquaman since both in the comics are rulers of Atlantis, but also gives depth and representation and acknowledgment to cultures often forgotten by the western world that colonized them. Namor is a dangerous and unpredictable character to definitely keep an eye on. Ryan Coogler has also spoken that the original script was about T’Challa and his son and dealing with the grief/loss of time after the 5 year Blip when he was gone. They took some of those themes of grief and healing and family bonding from the original story and reworked it into the new story. This film really does juggle a lot and it is admirable what they managed to pull off. And Riri Williams, the scientist girl with the Iron Man armor, she will be seen in her own TV series soon called Ironheart. We will be seeing more of her as well. Ross will be next seen in the very soon upcoming Secret Invasion tv show. And as for Val, we know for sure she will be in the Thunderbolts movie next summer which will end Phase 5.

[@vikimseruh4500]

I know people said Winston Duke wasn't used enough, but he really was. He was there when Shuri really needed some advice and support. Remember he was there for her to challenge anyone for the throne at the end. We all know she couldn't do that so he was there for her. I had to back up and look at that and when I realized what he was doing. Maybe I am wrong, but that is what I took away from that scene.

Of course we all want more Winston Duke but I think his presence in this film was evenly balanced and important. The ending let us know that he will be way more involved in the next installment.

This movie was so emotional and so heartfelt. You could feel everything the actors felt and they all did such a great job navigating through their feelings of grief and loss to give us this. I love that they didn’t recast T’Challa. In this universe at least, the role should stay with him. But I also love that they presented an opportunity to tell the stories that were never told by possibly using the young Prince T’Challa instead. We get more T’Challa stories eventually and we keep Chadwick’s amazing performance and tribute intact. A total win-win in my book

[@patricia9239]

As a latina, Namor and Talokan was amazing to see. The Americas are still suffering from the effects of colonization and so much of our history, culture and traditions were lost to time. Seeing indigenous, pre columbian people as this superpower felt so fucking good. Both Wakanda and Talokan fell victim to machinations of the western world and i think that's the tragedy of it. Two societies that should be fighting together against those that want to hurt them, start fighting each other because of misunderstandings and fear. I hope we get to see them as allies in the future

[@lunacouer]

THIS!! During the big fight at the end, I actually yelled at the screen "Stop fighting! You're fighting the wrong people!" It may have been the first time watching a movie where I felt each death on each side meant something, where each was a real loss. Namor had good reasons behind what he did. So did Killmonger. Their ultimate goal was to protect their people. It was their choice of solution that was wrong, by becoming the same as those that brutalized them. In the end, all it did was hurt their people - again. These are complex issues, and I'm so happy to see them tackled in popular movies like this.

[@patricia9239]

@@lunacouer that generational trauma is hard to get rid off. Also something i realized later is that Wakanda was never colonized as Talokan. They never suffered like other african nations and indigenous people so i think that shaped many of the actions.

This was reminiscent of what the queen said to T'Challa in the first film, and to what he did overall by showing the world who Wakanda is. Also, when Shuri says that vengeance is consuming them and they can't let it consume their people, it's reminiscent of T'Challa's comments about Captain America and Ironman as he spared Zemo.

29:24 Music to my ears! So satisfying to hear the MCU finally using the word mutant 😌

05:45 Oak saying Angela Bassett still being a 10.... Respect

[@italian_mixx]

I watched this movie this weekend. Cried like a baby. Excited to see y’all’s reaction.

[@jacqui3230]

Despite Namor and his people being the antagonists in this film, I felt an overwhelming sense of pride when I watched this in theaters, made me so proud of my roots! I loved FINALLY seeing Mexican/Indigenous actors on screen and on a movie as big as Black Panther it was amazing, loved the representation

[@elenanegrete4384]

The soundrack to this movie is AMAZING, as is the movie.

[@idkskills3800]

[@BaddMedicine]

Had to keep it in. :)

[@jtlove8776]

I love that Answer loved the gift from his wife! She’s cool for that!

[@ophelieguay6960]

This movie is so good! My 6th favorite movie of the MCU! Okoye is such an amazing character, so badass! I love Danai Gurira, so talented! ❤️🔥🙌🏻

New subscriber. That was a fricking joy to watch with you guys: No excessive chatter over movie lines, no over the top b.s., but real fans who feel it in their guts. Love this, and thrilled to have more content to stream!

[@MadisonAiello]

I saw this movie in theaters opening night. I cried throughout most of the movie. I cried at the beginning and end for Chadwick and cried in the middle over Queen Romonda. It’s heartbreaking to see Shuri lose her last family member. It is one of the most emotional movie theater experiences I’ve ever had. When everyone realized that they were killing off T’Challa the same way Chadwick exactly passed, from a deadly illness, there were audible gasps and sobs. It was completely silent except for sniffles and crying throughout the beginning. I love that marvel had all that at the beginning because it allowed us all to say goodbye to Chadwick and grieve together. We got to grieve a hero of ours while we watched the cast grieve for their brother and friend. The same goes for the ending tribute to him. Complete silence except for crying. It was extremely powerful.

I’m only here to see Tenoch 💘🇲🇽

[@deesavage5198]

I was skeptical of her being the new Black Panther but the director really fit in perfectly. The reveal will give anybody goosebumps. Good Job, Disney

[@gin.k]

The mourning and grief parts definitely hit hard.

[@Lynn705Hal]

I'd seen the previews multiple times but was not able to see it in the theater, so it was great watching it here w/ you all.👍🧡

28:17 "'How' is never as important as 'why'" - Namor 42:13 "'How' is never as important as 'why'" - Killmonger

[@ms-pe2xb]

As always, I enjoyed your review. I think everyone who has lost someone can relate to the themes of loss, grief, and anger. The performances were excellent. Kudos to the costumes and set designs.

[@WSK9002]

I believe Angela Bassett won her Golden Globe this year because of the scene where Ramonda strips Okoye of her rank.

[@samswords9993]

I LOVE that they used different languages throughout this movie. It bugs me when movies or tv shows have people from other cultures or countries speaking English to those of the same country or ethnicity. There are 6 languages spoken in this movie.

[@yawkeyboy1996]

When I went to go see this movie in theaters it was actually a double feature where they were gonna show the first movie then this. It was great getting to see the first movie one last time in theaters then leading into an early screening of this movie.

[@UkePlayah]

Thanks as always for the reaction. An interesting note on Namor: In the 1960's there was a Marvel Superheroes cartoon show that would randomly focus a 1/2hr cartoon on a single superhero each show. I believe there were only 5 heroes: Captain America; the Hulk; Iron Man, Thor; and "Namor the Submariner". I guess Namor was a bigger name in the 60's MCU but fell into obscurity until Wakanda Forever. Anyway, love the channel guys.

[@mrflickswatches]

What a heartfelt movie 😭🤍 absolutely amazing! Can’t wait to upload mine, my aunt lost it with this one! I agree with Quinn! I also love Winston in here! A fellow Rochester NY native 🔥🔥🙏🏼 Rip to the King🐐

[@BaddMedicine]

Winston was underutilized. But everyone did fantastic! Looking forward to your reaction 🤘

[@JH-jw7pu]

One important thing to keep in mind is that this movie faced a lot of challenges. Not only did they have to completely rewrite the script, it was also filmed during the pandemic and there were many regulations that had to be followed. For quite a few of the scenes, the actors weren’t even in the same room! The had to film the scenes separately but it was edited together incredibly well. I think that all of the challenges this movie faced make it that much better.

[@4523bgb]

The fact that this is Tenoch Huerta's (Namor) first major English speaking film....amazing.

[@StephAxox]

The oak putting two and two together at the end 😂😂 I love this movie! And you guys always have awesome reactions! 🔥

[@TestaRosssa_]

I lost my dad unexpectedly in 2020, and my mom from cancer in 2021, at 23 years old. Seeing all this happen to poor Shuri back to back really hit so hard for me. The way she cries for her mom is so realistic. 39:07 gets me every time I hear it.

[@marcellousnguyen187]

Love this movie! Had to hold back tears when I saw this in theaters until I came home lol. Hope you guys like this movie as well! 🙏🏽

[@lefromthecity]

Watching this in theaters was an emotional rollercoaster. I cried so many times 😂…I was a mess.

[@ladrac198]

I came out of this movie the first time thinking this was a top 3 MCU movie for me. I came out of it the second time feeling the exact same way.

[@GranFelicia]

oh gosh..... let me go get my tissues before I watch. I ugly cry every time I watch this movie!!!

[@katiepooh2137]

Finally watching this because i just watched the film last week lol! I was an emotional wreck when chadwhick died and like anyone needs to grieve, i had to and wanted to wait till i had a time to watch it. R.i.p micheal, one of my childhood best friends from middle school who passed from cancer as well and loved chadwick as well. Thats why it was so hard for me. R.i.p chadwhick too!! Im glad they're now longer hurting together and at peace together. 😭❤️

[@bananaslin]

there these small but powerful little tributes to chadwick in this that you'd only catch if you really followed things as they happened after his passing. ramonda saying she felt t'challa still is ryan coogler feeling chadwick's hand guiding him through the entire making of this film. riri saying "to be young, gifted, and black" is a direct quote chadwick said when the cast won their sag award for best cast in a motion picture. my favorite callback is when shuri says "vengeance has consumed us. we cannot let it consume our people. a direct parallel to t'challa in civil war when he finds zemo. he says "vengeance has consumed you. it's consuming them. i am done letting it consume me." also the ending when nakia says "your baba prepared us for his death, didn't he?" parallels in the first black panther when t'challa sees his father in the ancestral plane and he says "a father who has not prepared his children for his death has failed". that one gets me the most, i think. another is when shuri says the thing about being a child who scoffs at tradition, a callback to what m'baku said about her in the first black panther. him following it with "you have lost too much to still be considered a child" was gutwrenching and true. it makes me sad that the two happiest avengers (shuri and peter parker) have no lost everything and everyone. i need them to team up and just be sad together!!

[@lashirnette]

The fact that guy with the black hat didn't react until he saw the baby boy 🥹🥹🥹🥹😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@rdreamdestination6478]

I love it. They took Mexican culture and created this badass character

[@jjoh158]

I saw it in the theater and everyone was crying. This movie was so emotional and powerful

[@LadyTmuzikal1]

Loved watching your review! "Black Panther" gave me pride and empowerment.."Wakanda Forever" gave me hope and purpose to fight to live through a terrible illness I'm still suffering from. This time last year I was sending up prayers for the Lord to take me..but when I saw the teaser for the first time..11-11-2022 was the only thing I had left to look forward to last year. Regardless of criticism my experience at the theater was everything I needed..❤ from Louisiana

[@Mangolite]

Aside from the wonderful tribute to Chadwick Boseman, Wakanda Forever repeat almost beat for a beat of the first black Panther film. Both movies start with the passing of a king, introducing a new hidden culture and an antagonist who provide an alternative to protecting their people. Angela Bassett gave a powerful performance with Danai Gurira. Overall, this was a beautiful mess.

[@jimmiegiboney2473]

1:17:39 Mark! 182,426 Views + Mine! 🎉 7.4K Thumbs Up + Mine! 👍 Guys, you're welcome, and thanks! 😊 Notes: "42" is my first impression of Chadwick, that I'm aware of. 🤔 I was going to say that's my favorite movie of his, but suddenly can't remember which famous person he played! 😮 So that must mean that "Black Panther" replaced that character. 🤔 Back when he was a guest for "SNL" they did a funny skit or sketch about "Black Panther"! 😂😅 Angela Bassett! For "decades"?! 😮 Wow, I suppose that much time has passed. 😮😢 "Angela Basset Hound" is my first favorite character of hers, followed by her "LAPD" character in... Drat! Now I'm failing to remember the name of that show! I haven't been able to watch television for over a year now. 😢 Julia, she's my "decades long crush" 😍 going back to before she was a cast member of "Saturday Night Live"! Her character in the "MCU" is a doppelganger of her "Seinfeld" character "Elaine Benes" thanks to established crossover links! 😊 You've seen actress Lake Bell's "Marvel Character" now, but her "DC" character is my favorite 😍 as she voices "Pamela Isley/Poison Ivy" who is drawn to resemble her! I haven't seen this movie since it was new in movie theaters, and I've only seen reactions to it. I still don't know if they're claiming that Chadwick's character died of cancer too, or something else! 🤷‍♂️ Well, bye-bye for now! Namaste! 🙏

[@Julini89]

given the circumstances about Chadwick this gave true justice to his memory and to dedicate the movie was a very nice gestures

[@aexothicc]

Oooooh HELL YEAAAH I thought you guys may have watched it in cinemas!! I'm so glad I get to see your reactions to it!!!

[@wjquick32]

This movie was gorgeously sad to watch in theaters on opening night. Saw it two more times and I loved it each time. Still upset the Queen was offed, that part almost destroyed my entire theater. But Angela Bassett is brilliant and I so badly want her to win the Oscar for her performance. Great catch by The Oak to with the nuances there at the end.

[@ShoreFell]

This movie was perfect in my opinion. I may be closed by my love for Chadwick, but it was so heartfelt and touching it felt very emotional and real.

[@gongyx3881]

I missed a good portion of Shuri & M'Baku's conversation in the theater after Queen Ramonda died because I was so devastated and had trouble composing myself

[@MeyRysterio17]

That last scene w t’challa son…man the water works 😭😭

[@doncacique2769]

Fun fact, they made Attuma strong because he's one of Namors enemies in the future.
