      There's a difference between not liking someone's POV/style and being completely and utterly unwilling to engage in dissenting debate.

      Running into Phantom Thread, so maybe you can gift me with a surprise when I get out: what the fuck does DTRT's (glorious) street theatre have to do with the (glorious) Afrofuturism of BP? Apart from being wholly uncompromised expressions of black filmmakers? Looking forward.

      Well if you read the essay, as you refuse to do, you would know that you're just arguing about textures instead of the core thematic message of duality of the black identity, which is virtually the same in both films. But again. The gifts already sitting there.

      The qualifier is doing a lot of work in that tweet. And frankly, if its connection to Do the Right Thing is a pseudo-recreation of an MLK/Malcolm X dynamic in a comic book movie, Bryan Singer did it 20 years ago (though not as well or in a specifically black context)

      FWIW The essay makes the argument.

      Read it. Still unconvinced the film rises above a very entertaining, ideologically muddled piece of blockbuster entertainment. Deeply troubled by the straw-manning of white critics who have reasoned, substantial criticism of the film.

      Not to say that an AA audience member won’t respond differently (we are all but the sum of our experiences and influences), but that a white critic who engages with the film honestly but finds the film lacking somehow doesn’t “get it”.

      It concerns me that a Disney movie with a CIA-supported dynastic ruler (even a very good one that is undoubtedly important in terms representation in front of and behind the camera) is some sort of useful barometer for wokeness

      I think the entire point of the film is he wasn't in a lot of ways, and he had to learn from someone who was in a lot of ways.

          I think if anyone has an influence on T’Challa’s thinking, it’s Okoye, who suggests the touchy-feely neoliberal, UN and CIA approved outreach he does at the end. (Which I would love to see come back to bite him in the sequel)
