Yeah honestly it looks like a lot of fun to watch (as most marvel movies are) from the trailer. Dude in a cool superhero suit wrecking people. 100% RT is probably exaggerated but it looks like it'll be good

I was collecting Spawn comics long before cheering on a black man as he accomplished his goals was cool.

you guys really don't know enough about rt to form sensible reactions to it
key facts:
1.) the score is "percent fresh", i.e. percent of reviews that are positive, not an average of scores. a movie that gets 100 6/10s has a 100%. a movie that gets 99 10/10s and 1 4/10 has a 99%. this is because most movie reviewers prioritize giving a recommendation over having a really universal scoring system (the ebert rule).
2.) major studio tentpoles end up with around 150-250 reviews. bp currently has 76. the majority of critics have yet to review it.
3.) studios know people don't know these things and therefore choose to screen the movie early to softball or buyable critics, so the pre-release score is always inflated and *always* drops over opening weekend. similar to the video game embargo system.
4.) literally anyone can post their scores as a critic as long as they can prove they've been reviewing 50+ movies a year for the past two years, so a vast majority of scores come from independent film bloggers. i know all this because i was flirting with it for a while and i know a guy who does. he will very likely be rotten on bp, as he was on last jedi.
5.) independent film bloggers are probably more likely that the average human to be sjws, but they don't have anyone to answer to, so the only pressure to like black panther "because it's black" would be to deceive themselves, which is quite common, and similar to why someone might like predator 2 "because it's predator". there is no conspiracy or unity at all in the critical community, except that they're all the kind of people who would write movie reviews.

i fuckin wish i could do this so badly
don't remember anyone complaining about Blade being a black superhero--it was popular enough to get 2 sequels and a tv series
people aren't racist, they're just apprehensive about being lectured by leftist freaks that can't write a decent story and care more about indoctrinating the audience than entertaining it

So the black character created by 2 white guys, prominently shown in a comic produced by a company owned and operated by whites, made in a studio owned by a company that was created by a white guy is going to mean so much to the black community?
awesome

It's the very epitome of virtue signaling, virtue signaling of course is the only export of Hollywood. They beat the drums of war to rally those against a cause that doesn't exist, to raise money for those doing the signaling, brings nothing of tangible wealth or improvement to the cause, and gives all the other virtue signalers something to aspire to: using someone else's plight, whether real or imagined, to make money.
It's like brutally molesting a child, and then making a documentary about that child to pull at the heart strings of everyone about child molestation so we can all rally together and put an end to child molestation.
The sooner blacks stop bowing down to their poverty pimps the sooner they can start improving their standard of living.
dont joke about that, there are a fuckin ton of niggers on twitter who think its real
Well, there has been a big hubub made about how this movie has all black main characters, apparently all the crew is black, black director..etc
