Also, click https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Panther:_Wakanda_Forever for information about this movie which was first released on October 26, 2022 (Hollywood) and Nov. 11, 2022 (United States). Here's a brief excerpt of that page:
"Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is a 2022 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Black Panther. Produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, it is the sequel to Black Panther (2018) and the 30th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Directed by Ryan Coogler, who co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Robert Cole....

Ideas for a sequel began after the release of Black Panther in February 2018. Coogler negotiated to return as director in the following months, and Marvel Studios officially confirmed the sequel's development in mid-2019. Plans for the film changed in August 2020 when Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman died from colon cancer, with Marvel choosing not to recast his role of T'Challa"...

**** PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
There are LOTS of reaction videos about Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

I'm showcasing Kalibur's reaction vlog "The Issues With Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" because I agree with what the vlogger said, particularly his statements about the need for strong Black male role models and his concerns about the relative lack of strong Black men in that movie. In addition, I'm showcasing that vlog because I like the way Kalibur made his points, and I like the fact that his vlog includes scenes from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. unlike some other reaction vlogs about that movie.

That said, I encourage pancocojams visitors to watch other YouTube vlogs and read their  discussion threads about this movie. 

This post doesn't include any explanations about the characters in or the plots of Black Panther , Black Panther:Wakanda Forever, or any other movie that is mentioned.

"@Kalibur  But check this out in 2025 and 2026. We are getting two Avengers movies Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars respectively there is going to be a lot of crazy things with the multiverse and after the events of it the Marvel Universe will undergo some changes some subtle and some not so much and the universe will be altered in such a way that the Young T’Challa May age to be either a teenager or young adult so that could be very much plausible especially since the X-Men will be largely introduced in the MCU post Secret Wars"

"Brother Kalibur. My issue is they used a real life death (Chadwick's) for a fictional movie plot. T'challa disappearance could be explained in the Thanos snap. If they recast T'challa we could've had T'challa vs. Namor. As in the comics. Don't get me wrong I love to see our sisters come up but at of the expense of a strong black male lead. I don't want to sound misogynistics but in Marvel why can't we have that strong male black lead why can't we have our heroes? Then to kill the Queen just lazy writing to me. My 12 year old daughter saw the movie with her sister. She said it was ok. No excitement just ok! That speaks volumes. Having Black Panther without T'challa is like having The Fantastic Four without Mr. Fantastic! Recast T'challa!"

30. Mark Murray, Nov. 17, 2022
"They honored Chadwick's death the best they could, and they asked his wife for approve of this. We don't need another male actor to become T'Challa at this moment. We can have Shuri as the Black Panther where it is in the comics and plus Namor is one of her first villains/anti-hero's that she has fought. She can be in a few or one more movie as the Black Panther before she passes the torch to Young T'Challa. There can be a time skip like the other movies when they get to that point, but there is nothing wrong with a black woman in the role of Black Panther at this moment in time. We really don't have strong leading women actors in Marvel movies other than Black Widow and Captain Marvel, but I feel like those movies fell short to me. The actress Letitia Wright did an amazing job as Shuri/Black Panther and her future is bright"

"@Mark Murray  I get what you're saying, but the real-life death of Chadwick had way too much influence on this Marvel story. Yes, Shuri became in the comics, but only because T'Challa was in a coma. Had Chadwick not died, this wouldn't even be a storyline. There are so many other ways they could have done this in order to recast the part. And let's be real, ppl we're hyped for the movie because of the situation, not because of Shuri. This series will flop like most other heroine lead movies of they don't recast somehow."

"You provided excellent insight on this movie. I love the movie but I agree that they could have cast another actor as T'challa. The young man from Tyler Perry's Ruthless, for example, Lenny Thomas. Like you said to many women have been forced to lead because they lost their Kings and we are so much stronger together ❤️"

"Thank you Kalibur for another excellent critique of the movie and the revealing of underlying parallels that have been written for us as a people. In general, we always deliver great performances but fail at controlling our own narrative. May the Kings and Queens Rise together as ONE from this day forward. UNITY in Diplomacy. The People of All Lands walking together outside of those in "followership" positions. Last words. Any direct action to take away hope, is a direct spiritual attack against the culture of a people. Recast the Black Panther, "For We Are Many". Showing the Alignment of King and Queen is our correct narrative. This has been the center of the attack.  Yet We Remain in Truth. Thanks Kalibur for laying out with the Passion and Leadership for change. So Proud of You and the platform of communication you created. Your comments keep us woke. You Deliver Hope!"

"That's because neither Nemar and technically killmonger were "villans" they were anti-heros, they both had legitimate reasonings surrounding their actions, not like thanos who was just a mad titan that just wanted to burn the world. And you also keep saying "we need to recast t'challa"......I'm guessing you didnt watch past the ending credits? That was explained with Nakia's son that that was going to happen "

"I agree with you on 98% . I don't agree with recasting. The reason I don't is because If they recast then it takes away the story line and opportunities for young T Challa being a part of projects like the young avengers, and the wakanda forever mini series that is being talked about on Disney. Now his son can take up the mantel just as he did when his father died. This leaves so many opportunities for the legacy of the black panther to live on from generation to generation."

"Man your message is so deep. Loved every minute of it. I won't lie, when they announced Black Panther 1, I didn't know how to take it. Black Panther was never a B or A List super hero. So I was confused as to why this character was getting a movie over tons of more established characters. But you can make the same case for Iron Man and Thor before 2008. I can understand why people felt it was woke messaging in that regard. But honestly after seeing how much it brought people together for the movie, and seeing so many families and children with a someone to look up to...it brought it all into perspective.

The character grew on me that I knew little about before the first movie. Seeing children dressed up as Black Panther for Halloween also showed how deep the connection was. I'm glad you guys got a real character that has decades of history behind it finally on the big screen. But I also do agree with you, they should recast for those same very reasons."

50. Eric Murphy, Nov. 18, 2022
"I have to disagree. In the comics, T'Challa wasn't always the Black Panther. In one comics he was in a comma when Shuri took the mantle which is similar to what we saw. Also if you pay attention to the end Shuri may not stay Black Panther.  As far as Batman different characters became Batman in the comics. Let's not fixate on the now and see where things are going"

"Sup Kalibur. Haven't watched your whole vid yet. My issue with BP 1 and 2 is yet again, entertainment makes men look incompetent and stupid. T'Chaka deleting his own brother in Watts for his son to see made no sense. T'Challa and Wakanda was lead by his mom Aunt, etc. They treated him like a kid really. Even his own sister was clowning him in the movie as if she's on his level or above. Black Panther character is part of Illuminati according to the comics. That's why he met up with leaders of othet nations in BP1. They're taking this "female empowerment" too far and it's unrealistic. Killmonger should still be alive and the true leader of Wakanda. And notice the white, male superheros in the MCU don't get undermined by women around them."

"Following DC comics is trash. We shouldn’t recast Chadwick. His successor is already lined up. I think their point for not recasting was to show the point that Chadwick WAS Black Panther and if he weren’t it wouldn’t be the same iconic film. To not replace him is not only symbolic but reverential. We gotta stop discounting value. The role itself is very important and the person should not just occupy the title of Black Panther but embody the values as a person that we need to push thr culture forward as a role model. Chadwick was that. What I’m saying is, we don’t want just a talking head as T’Challa. We need a powerful person who honors our culture. Otherwise, what’s the point? Just to have a man as Black Panther? Ryan and team  understood the assignment."

PARTIAL LYRICS - GROWN WOMAN
(as sung by Beyoncé)

[...]

[Chorus: Beyoncé]
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want
I can be bad if I want
I can say what I want
I can live fast if I want
I can go slow all night long
I'm a grown woman
I can do whatever I want

[Verse 3: Beyoncé]
I'm a grown woman, and I know that I got it
I'm a grown woman, ain't got no room in my pockets
I'm a grown woman, look down, got you so excited
I really want to know if you got it like that
'Cause I got a cute face and my booty so fat
Go girl, she got that bomb, that bomb
That girl, can get whatever she wants
That girl, she got that tight, that tight
Them boys, will do whatever she likes

"@Buffy Summers  it´s a long way to go there - but the african touch in this thing here is gorgeous - i was lucky to buy an african record on a flea market back in the mid 70s - at first it sounded completely alien to me, but my curiosity made me play it over and over again until i became familiar with that music - some years after that a guy gave me a record with south african zulu jive, loved it almost instantly - again some years later paul simon came with grace land with south african zulu jive and ladysmith black mambazo, almost at the same time king sunny adé was to be seen live in german television - this was my way into african music - since then i saw countless african bands and musicians live, every single one of them was simply gorgeous, haha - love them!!!

are you "woke" enuff to listen to this first african record i bought? i found it here on youtube - this was the craziest music on it...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZI-kZTX_hkM

in the meantime i got plenty other records like that, but this first one is still one of my faves, this is the whole album...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAVGikZoEac

oh, baby, i confess: i´m not the biggest fan of beyoncé, but i got to love her for this song here... :-)

1. You cannot “steal” from a culture that is yours. It doesn’t really matter where she was born, she’s African American and so her heritage is that of African ancestry. So long as she doesn’t botch the representation or deride the culture in any way, there is really no cause for concern.

2. Secondly, if Beyonce is paying homage to the African culture by using Afro-beats or African choreography, then distinctive African markers will be present. Duh. If I’m making a music video about ice cream, well of course ice cream will get a feature. Is Dairy Queen gonna say I copied?"

It’s about learning and understanding and respecting it. Just claiming to be either Nigerian or Ghanaian isn’t enough, wearing a dashiki isn’t enough, listening to afrobeats isn’t enough. If you’re going to claim it you don’t only claim the modern version of Africa but also the traditional version. If you would like to learn more I’ll be happy to teach you some traditional cultures"

He was my age and his work mattered in a very personal way to me as both a writer of color facing a hostile Hollywood and a dad of Black kids who've been robbed of superheroes.

Thank you King. Find your peace.

This was more than a movie. We finally got to see a hero everyone could relate to, little kids regardless of race wanting to be Black Panther. Seeing another view of Africa, not the struggling Africa and multi dimensional black characters who epitomized #exellence

Chadwick Boseman was a real-life superhero, he didn’t just play one on screen. He was constantly helping others despite what he was going through. #RIPChadBoseman

I will never forget how Chadwick Boseman fought for the Black Panther cast to play their characters with African accents. He understood what BP meant and went beyond what was asked of him and for that, he will always be our King T’Challa. Wakanda forever. #RIPChadBoseman

"Wakanda will no longer watch from the shadows. We cannot. We must not. We will work to be an example of how we as brothers and sisters on this earth should treat each other. [...] We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe." #RIPChadBoseman -snip-
This is a quote from near the end of the movie.

As an African, Chad helped me escape reality for a bit & live in a dream of an African civilisation with her potential fully realised & her glory on global display.

Marked by sound leadership, highly educated & tech enabled women with legacy building in view [emoji of Pleading face]

No matter what happens in Hollywood from here on. Fact remains, our kids now have an African Superhero of color, who flips over hills and fights bad guys. For this we say Thank You Chad. May your soul rest in eternal power. #RIPChadBoseman

RIP to a true living legend in the Black community.

Thank you for showing the world that we can portray more than slaves, crackheads, drug dealers, etc. in film and that we are royalty and excellence.

We love you #ChadwickBoseman [with emoji of Folded hands]

Chadwick was such an elegant man with great integrity and tremendous talent. He inspired an entire generation to stand up and be king. Honor him by emulating him-show kindness and love to others. Share your talents in ways that impact. Always strive to be a light in the darkness
