It is time to say goodbye to the MCU, well Phase 4 at least. Let's be real, we know of at least 2 more phases in the works. But Black Panther: Wakanda, or Black Panther 2 is the end cap of big screen movie entries for this phase, of course we have Disney Plus shows and a few seasonal specials. So this is the perfect time to recap one of the more highly anticipated entries of this phase. We of course we all excited for the latest Spider-Man entry, but this had to be right below that.
But this movie had the a lot of tasks placed on it outside of the normal expectations for being a good movie in the fairly up and down phase for the MCU. Not only did this, and every other movie of this phase have that question of what the long standing goals for the over-arching MCU were. It also had to tell a good story that honors it previous leading actor, Chadwick Boseman, while also moving on from him and simultaneously finding a way to address his real world death.
So let us figure out together how this movie manages to work through all these important and lofty goals and to what degree. Let me know on social @NickNackMovies and @NickNack_IC on Tik Tok, Instagram, Twitter, and Letterboxd where you can see my latest full MCU rankings, now 30 films deep.
