Wakanda Forever: The Burden of Forgiveness 

Thank you! Obviously this movie deals with A LOT of heavy themes but I really felt like the lack of judgment being passed regarding anger was q topic that was under explored. I really enjoyed making this video and to see that it us connecting with people means the world!

Thank you!

Totally Agree!

He is fun to watch. If you're going to be a jerk, be an interesting jerk. And I like the first scene with him. I finally got my mermaid horror movie.

@@katherinealvarez9216 Does Pirates of the Caribbean 4 not count? The Mermaid scene is one of the few good parts in that one

@@TheWritersBlockOfficial good point. Let's put this under "Contemporary mermaid horror movie." Until someone decides to do a decent version of Into the Drowning Deep.

Honestly mermaid horror should be the next bigg craze. Move aside twilight

I think if this wasn't in the mcu, people would talk about it like The Las of US or other beloved properties. I think because it wasn't what people are used to in a movie with superheroes, many overlooked what it was actually trying to achieve which was much more complex (and not always "FUN" to watch, even if it was amazing

another thing like you said, Shuri only told him to yield as a leader for her people because she loved them the most. if Namor actually step down, Shuri would definitely kill him and it would affect no one, not even to Shuri due to all the injustices she has experienced when she is just getting into her adulthood, and she is also like that in the comics too, it's basically Wanda's and Peter's revenge arc, except it feels rawer, real, and better. Overall, Shuri's revenge arc is not just a "revenge arc" it's literally her becoming something that we would have never thought would happen and Ryan slowly build up to it. Although it's an MCU movie, he used real human feelings and themes from the real world, combine with Letitia's acting, which equals to a revenge arc that is more different and better than other revenge arcs, which is honestly one of the biggest highlights of the movie for me. (I'm sorry if this is too long, but I really liked what you said, and I wanted to add more to it lol).

Well said!! I just love how unapogetic the movie is in general. Like the whole point of the last movie was coming out of isolation but when the rest if the world acts like a holes angella basset is justifiably likened gave you a chance and you wasted it. Watch your backs!"

Hey never apologize for being passionate and sharing that. Discussions like this are THE WHOLE reason I started this channel and seeing people like you find something meaningful in my work is incredibly meaningful to me. To your point, it all goes back ti the realism and unapologetic nature of the film. There isn't a "moral to the story" like most films. Instead its a portrait of how reality is indifferent to morality. Actions have consequences, but their not always fair. They just are. Honestly I think this movie would be wwaAaaaay more talked about if it wasn't an mcu film. I think a lot of people write off a lot of the brillaincs that is present because "marvel has been going downhill since whatever movie i didn't like as much as the ones I do like"

@@TheWritersBlockOfficial Exactly. when Shuri couldn't save her brother, and she couldn't save her mother because she told Attuma and Namora to take her and Riri to Namor, it basically causes her a lot of guilt, but in no way's wasn't her fault. her actions did lead to that point, but unlike peter, she didn't have the time to save T'Challa and T'Challa told her at the last minute, and she knew he would attack Wakanda, but did not know he would kill her mother, the only person that was really important in Shuri's life. friends are very important too, but family is on a different level, family is forever no matter what the situation is. Even though Shuri has her nephew, her current and past generations in her bloodline are gone. She has to carry the bloodline by herself, her being alone. But that does make her a wiser and more mature person now, which is what Wakanda needed in the moment. Sometimes the saddest things in your life can help you mature better.. Now, in my opinion, I think it would be better off as a non-MCU film in general. Keep it canon and make it to Phase 4 in the franchise, but also separate itself from the franchise, if Ryan or Kevin did that, it would've made more money in the box office, and would be a perfect movie of mental health without the "Marvel has been going downhill".

Wakanda forever to me really proves that a movie with super heros in it can be far more than just a "super hero movie"

@@TheWritersBlockOfficial Like Black Adam for me was just a bunch of heroes fighting in a town with little emotion and great action sequences

Wakanda forever has some emotional HAYMAKERS to hit you with. That is what makes a great superhero movie imo

Thank you for the kind words!
