I don’t consider Black Panther a woke film because that character isn’t new, but it wasn’t as good as it could’ve been. I feel it was hyped as “Black” when they should have just made a super hero movie and made it the best movie possible.
I don’t recall it being racist towards white people which is a sign of being “woke” it seems..🤔
Movies are tough because the concept may be great, or maybe there’s a great story in a book, but it may not translate to film, or the timing could be wrong and it’s not well received, ect.
Worse than the above is telling people they must like a film because it’s “Black” or cranking out all black shows and demanding everyone like them or they are racist.
There are some good shows out there with all manner of people in them and no “racist” overtones or wokeness. It’s time to shut up about race and make a good product, which is what movies are. Yet, it seems that some persons who follow certain ideologies just can’t stop drawing attention to race.
Hollywood... make a good product and I’ll buy it. I don’t need you. Hollywood actors need the common people to need them, worship them. Like the Gods of Ancient Greece they need prayers to sustain them. That’s why those actors will do anything, sell any shitty perfume imaginable and screw anyone or anything. They can’t imagine anything worse than having to work at Target.
