\u201cSo much love for Black Panther. The exploration of Wakanda is phenomenal, Erik Killmonger is unquestionably one of Marvel's best villains, and manages to be both fun and dramatic. Can't wait to see it again!\u201d— Eric Eisenberg (@Eric Eisenberg) 1517292033
\u201cBLACK PANTHER is incredible, kinetic, purposeful. A superhero movie about why representation & identity matters, and how tragic it is when those things are denied to people. The 1st MCU movie about something real; Michael B. Jordan\u2019s Killmonger had me weeping and he\u2019s the VILLAIN\u201d— jen yamato (@jen yamato) 1517292219
