As important as Ghostbusters 2016.

Like I said in the oscar thread, a movie with a mostly all black cast and a message of black excellence in spite of colonial destruction making a billi is pretty wild. Hell, just having a black superhero movie make that kind of money is important for representation.

Buying something shouldn't be considered a culturally important event.

That's what an action movie is. It's just a cheeseburger or a t-shirt. A consumer product intentionally made to appeal to a demo.

Culturally important is something I can actually agree on. It was when words like "historical" were flying around that I rolled my eyes out.

Nominating a movie merely because it feels important is stupid though.

Black Panther was a fine movie when it was directly addressing the politics of the world that it built and giving the protagonist an arc (the second act)

Too bad the movie ended with metal rhinos and two cgi panthermen punching each other in a jrpg train station, and began with a neon car chase that served no purpose other than action figures. My heart sunk as soon as they ditched black panther fighting those poachers like batman so he could shoot purple lasers beams. What a boring character to watch fight. I relished every moment spent out of the suit even though the dueling fight scenes couldn't even touch what Coogler did in Creed.

It's an important film, but so is crash, lol. So is twilight and Harry potter and hunger games.
