This kiiinda seems like it's going back on that Like at the very least, it's this missed opportunity -- of course I know Ayo would be happy to see Zemo's head on a pike but the question is what, exactly, T'Challa wants to see happen re: Zemo being brought to justice

(Yes, I know that the super-soldier serum isn't technically the same thing as the heart-shaped herb But saying that Zemo's whole argument specifically applies only to the weaknesses of Erskine's formula is the kind of tedious argument that people make fun of comic books for)

(FYI Ryan Coogler doesn't care that much about this distinction and in the commentary for Black Panther freely refers to T'Challa's powers as making him a "super-soldier")

But then you could make this point in general about the MCU being "one continuity" being problematic and how movies don't talk about other movies as much as they logically should Isn't the Hulk a way, way, WAY more salient argument about the dangers of superhumans than Karli

Hell it should be the only thing anyone talks about AT ALL with this argument It's the big green elephant in the room "Yeah Bruce Banner injected himself because everyone thought he was this gentle softboi nerd Now the city of Lagos is a pile of rubble"

(The fact that the rejoinder to this argument is "Well just don't use the gamma rays, then, stupid! It was the gamma rays that were the problem!" is why comic books are dumb and people who care about them, like myself, are dumb)

Still very curious how they're going to get around the fact that Shuri is a fan-favorite character with an openly anti-vaxxer actress It's going to be weird when T'Challa dies off-screen, it'll be weirder when Shuri also gets shunted off somewhere. And then who's left to be BP?
-
It would be the funniest fucking thing if BP2 had Shuri be the first Black Panther not to use the heart-shaped herb powers and have her repeatedly go on a rant about not needing to put poisons in your body to achieve true optimum health

I for one am excited to see CGI T'Challa force pull himself out of the vacuum of space to inexplicably keep him in the movie despite real world events...

maybe BP2 has an assassination frame-job against Namor & the Atlanteans have an aquatic version of the Herb that Shuri could adapt after the true culprit is discovered & peace restored, a gift from Namor in honor of his old friend/rival (would beat a White Tree of Gondor redux)

I have a theory on the herb and who might take over. My theory is it will be Lupita Nyong'o because in the comics her character becomes magically imbued a different way. They've already changed her character enough that making her the new Black Panther wouldn't be weird.
