Wakanda

via Marvel Studios The autopsy on Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is well underway to try and explain the many shortcomings that have seen it go down in the history books as the worst-rated Marvel Cinematic Universe movie ever on both Rotten Tomatoes and CinemaScore, an unwanted distinction it shares with Eternals. There are many reasons why critics, crowds, and even franchise fanatics were left disappointed by the end result, but one of the most notable could be a recurring problem that’s dogged the title…

via Marvel Studios One of the most predictable developments that comes attached to any popular movie is that in the aftermath of its theatrical release, the tide will begin to turn. Just like clockwork, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has been getting reappraised as one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s biggest disappointments ever since it came to Disney Plus. While there’s no harm in not enjoying every single feature or streaming series the franchise puts out there, it’s nonetheless interesting to see how…

Image via Marvel Studios Ahead of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania-mania properly taking off in just a couple of weeks, Marvel fans have come down with a bad case of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever fever this week following the superhero sequel spectacular finally landing on Disney Plus. After the battle between the movie’s defenders and critics has hit a stalemate, and with the movie’s cast seemingly already poised for their next MCU crossover, let’s turn our attention to how DC could find its next Batman in…

Image via Marvel Studios Marvel fans went into Black Panther: Wakanda Forever with high expectations after the success of the first film but also with some trepidation. The sudden passing of Chadwick Boseman, who played T’Challa, was bound to lend an undercurrent of grief to the sequel and sure enough, the film opens with T’Challa’s funeral, acting as a memorial for both Boseman’s incredible life and the character audience fell in love with.

Having already bagged a Golden Globe for her performance as Queen Romonda, she is now up for an Oscar. But evidently, the heartbreak caused by her sudden MCU exit is still fresh. Namor is one of the first…

Image via Marvel Studios After an abnormally long gap between its theatrical and streaming releases (which may or may not be cause to worry), Black Panther: Wakanda Forever finally arrived on Disney Plus this week. Interestingly, just as we’ve seen before with other Marvel movies — most notably, Thor: Love and Thunder — this has led to an increased backlash against Ryan Coogler’s previously acclaimed sequel. Although that doesn’t mean there aren’t others out there fighting for its honor… Even as critics try to…

Images via Marvel Studios/Warner Bros. We’ve only just got to know Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight in The Batman, but DC fans are already getting excited over meeting yet another new Bruce Wayne once the rebooted DCU gets going. This week we learned that another Batman movie titled The Brave and the Bold is on the way, which will introduce Ben Affleck’s replacement as the franchise’s mainstream Caped Crusader.
