Oh I misunderstood

I was referring to how they're having his kid take up the mantle, effectively telling a new story within the same universe. Marvel seems to be trying to keep that one universe, and I think fans of the character would rather see more content now than wait a long time

    There is nothing "new story" about this. This is a sequel. It's milking of a cash cow.

    It's a superhero story, so don't expect Gone with the wind.
    But for what they are both Black Panther movies are great imo.Good action, great sci-fi.

    I think treating superhero films as for simple minded people or for children would definitely explain everything wrong with the industry.

    Hey I didn't say that. The two Black Panther movies deal with some pretty heavy socioeconomic themes,

    1. Black Panther - Wakanda is a hidden, restricted ethnostate that comes under a coup by a racial supremacist with fascist imperialst ambitions. T'Challa decides to open the country up to the greater world instead of keeping the status quo.
    2. Wakanda forever - Wakanda's technological hegemony is challenged by another nation that has equal access said technology, the parallel between the USA/USSR and Atomic weapons for Vibrainium is obvious. Ultimately Shuri decides to make peace instead of continue the cold war.

    So the films aren't without any intelletcual merit. They just dress these themes with a lot of explosions and asskicking.
