I'm not down on the movie or the character. Do I think he is as interesting as the biggest named Marvel characters? No. He is definitely more interesting to me than Ant Man although I don't consider Ant Man a big character. His movie did well, but he's still a minor character. I also have no issue with people liking a movie because it appeals to their culture or gender. I didn't leave the theater thinking about how entertaining or good the movie was like I did the first Avengers and as I assume I will Infinity War. It has nothing to do with race or gender for me as I don't care if I identity with anyone in a movie. I get that people do but it's never been my thing especially for a comic book movie. As I said my main issue is that I don't like being called a racist because I didn't think it was God's gift to movies. Just my opinion.

You sound racist.

Black Panther - 8.5/10
I thought it was really, really good. They elongated the battle scene at the end, which was my only gripe, but it was an excellent movie.

Just watched Coco (watching it for 2nd time with daughter)... holy shit. I'm not Mescan, but it still stabs the feels hard. Very well done. The attention to detail is mind bottling. One scene in particular... They look at a footprint.
"It's a child's!"
"Size 7!"
"And a half!"
"Pronated!"
... Then the very next scene, Miguel (the child in reference) the child is subtly walking... pronated.
9/10

Critics are dumb. They did a good job of making a new movie for their core audience.

The Accountant - 6.5/10. I enjoyed it.
Ben Affleck plays a believable autistic person. Really like Jon Bernthal in the role of Ben's brother.

I remember Phantoms. And that's all I'll say about that other than: Example Infinity of The Book Was Better.
Book was great.

I don't mind Affleck as Batman. Don't @ me.
