"This movie will show what could have happened if white colonialists would never have landed in Africa... Everything we could have built. Everything we could have been." (John Kani, south african actor who plays King T'Chaka, former King of Wakanda)

Africa never developed much powerful empires. the only major empires they had were in north africa. the continent is just not designed for powerful civilizations. if they were going to do it, they would have already done it centuries earlier. saying white people stopped them is dishonest

I don't know about that. I don't know if it will be a top MCU movie. but I don't think it's gonna flop. it looks kinda cool and Black Panther is a good character. but some people are politicizing the movie too much.

This. To say that all of Africa's problems are the cause of European powers is disingenuous...but come the fuck on. lol

Don't act like European colonialism had no effect on Africa as a whole.

Why would that forgive centuries of the transatlantic slave trade on the behalf of white Europeans?

If you actually think the movie's going to flop after preorder tickets are sold out basically everywhere, I don't know what to tell you.

The movie will have to earn almost all of its money domestically. It will flop extremely hard in Asia.

Itll do well in Korea cause it was partially filmed there.

As long as the movie does over 700m, which it will, itll be fine. It wont be the highest grossing MCU movie and anyone thinking it will be is dreaming.

Well if Europeans had started trading with them and helping them develop instead of just stealing everything and enslaving them, things would likely be a bit different.

Yeah, this. Not just that, but western interventionism in general. When you invade a country multiple times in the span of a few hundred years, take all their resources, install despots who work for you, redrew borders based on foreign interests, absolutely drained resources without ever giving the country anything back, etc.

People like to pretend that we can just create an arbitrary end date and say, "Okay, from now on, we won't cause any issues so we are all even, right?", but that is a naive fantasy. Based on that quote alone, they are simply saying that western interventionism and colonialism have had a major impact on current events in Africa. Anyone who says otherwise is willingly ignorant of history.

Africa couldnt advance as well as Europe cause there was no Roman equivalent that basically concquered all the land and civilized the people and got the society started. They also lived in a area that didnt have the best crops and animals which contribute a lot to sustainability. How there where empires in the first place is a shock considering how hostile the environment is amazing.

Europe advanced greatly after the dark ages due to war and trade. Basically they were level 50 or so, most of Africa was level 10. Only nation that repelled the European powers Ethiopia. was like level 30, just cause of its medieval age and close relations with the Greeks.

it's only brought up to try and dismiss the fact that white people were fueling and buying from the slave trade, to try and diminish the significance of this

you know, nevermind that none of these african slave traders ended up in power or with any significant influence once the colonial powers felt they could take what they wanted
