Ahh, but Black Panther is still first black superhero movie written and directed by a black man, right? Nope. Robert Townsend wrote, directed, and starred in Meteor Man a whole quarter century ago.

Americas regression, our backwards strides away from Kings dream, all began with Barack Obamas 2008 presidential campaign and a media so desperate to protect him that every criticism leveled at The One was labeled racism. Everything was about race. Everything.

Then there was that sick 2012 fantasy spun by the media, Obama, and Democrats, about an innocent black child named Trayvon Martin stalked and murdered by a racist white man even though George Zimmerman is Hispanic and shot Martin in self defense.

Then there was the rabid Hands Up, Dont Shoot lie of 2014.

Do not misunderstand me. I am not saying race relations were perfect in 1998, or that we had achieved the Dream. But 20 years ago, we were close enough to not even notice Blade; and our media, Hollywood, and the left, were not so desperate to hold on to power through racial division that they would manufacture a bright and shining lie about Black Panther being anything other than number 13.

Meteor Man was an all black cast. IIRC they didn't even have a token white dude like Black Panther did. It's also a fucking fantastic movie and you should see it regardless of Breitbart diarrhea oops I meant opinions. Typo.

Blade was rated R and came out before people really cared about Superhero movies. They're a much different beast now than 20 years ago.

No one knows what Meteor Man is.

Superman had a couple hits, batman had consistency for the longest but other then that if you were in a superhero movie it was most likely a cash grab. Black Panther came out in a time when superhero movies aren't widely regarded as a joke and actually have worth in terms of financial success and pop culture relevance.

LOL this Meteor Man movie looks so dumb.

Joe Rogan did make a good point on his podcast about how the movie Blade which came out in 1998 starring Wesley Snipes as a superhero didn't get any of this attention.

It's like, back then people could just enjoy a movie for being a movie. Now it's all about the identity politics.

It's very weird that the people who control the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of the federal government believe the real power lies in the hands of like, Disney.

Blade was rated R though. It was not family friendly so there was no buzz.

I don't think people can comprehend that when they give golden stars and stickers to black stuff they're being racist still only this time they're pointing to them like they're a fucking spectacle.

It's real cringe, I bet these are people that try and make black friends not because of them liking the person but to point at them and go, "See, I'm about diversity and open minded!"

Disgusting.

Black Panther was from top to bottom a movie made by African-Americans that had a big focus on African culture, set in a fictional African country and also had identity politics as a major plot point. Nobody would have made this movie 10 years ago. Blade wasn't going for the same thing at all.

There are plenty of movies still being released that people watch because it's just a movie. Look at The Rock. He's a minority who is leading a shitload of action movies. They don't get the same response as Black Panther for a similar reason.

Right? I remember Meteor Man. I thought it was a decent movie. According to this topic, it had literally 0 white people in the cast? I don't remember that. I'm white. I remember watching and enjoying it and not equating race to it in any context.
