“...Gurira beat out Avengers: Infinity War’s Chris Hemsworth, Jurassic World star Chris Pratt, Deadpool 2’s Ryan Reynolds, and her Black Panther co-star, Chadwick Boseman, for the honor.”

“Thank you for affirming that women and girls, when they are given the chance to hang with the boys, can hang with the best of them…”

This is big ya’ll. Like really big.

This is the scene where M’Baku calls out Shuri during the challenge. I love that everyone surrounding her snaps to action, but please check out Shuri’s body-language here. 

Look at her face.

She is looking M’Baku dead in the eye.  Her stance is open and relaxed.  She’s not the least bit intimidated.

Also notice that Shuri’s mom and most of the Dora aren’t pointing those vibranium spears at M’Baku.  

They are effectively holding Shuri back.

….Just something to think about.

M’Baku: have been overseen by a CHILD who SCOFFS at TRADITION

Shuri: Okay but who gon pop me?

Black Panther’s Director Ryan Coogler Breaks Down a Fight Scene | Notes on a Scene | Part 2

The Director’s commentary is going to be insane, I haven’t bought a blue ray in like a decade but I just might for this one.

Ok seriously we’re not appreciating M’Baku enough?? Boy challenged T’challa, lost, accepted it and left. Then like 3 days later the king washed up on his shore and he’s like “aye I could use this to become king but nah let’s save the guy until he gets better” so now he has an unconscious, barely-clinging-to-life king in his living room, but he does everything to save him. Then the servants of that king show up, offer him the throne and the Black Panther serum which would pretty much make him invincible, and what does he do? Does he go “Mhm ok niiice” and accept it, thus becoming rightful king? Nope! He shows them the dying T’challa, who they bring back to life with the serum and leave. They ask for his army, but he doesn’t want to risk his people, but in the end realises they should stick together so he barges into the battle like the fucking Icon™ he is ok I just love M’Baku let’s give him the appreciation he deserves

M’baku is the personification of honour imo. You won’t find a defeated warrior with pride and honour like his that easy. Respecting his rival, the needs of his people and Wakanda itself??? Putting all that over his ego???? Someone raised that man right yo.

At the same time, we can’t forget T’Challa’s role in all this. He had M’Baku at his mercy, and could have easily killed him or gone out of his way to humiliate him. Instead he treated him as a fellow warrior with honor, and assured him that he respected his leadership of his tribe. That very much planted the seeds of M’Baku’s respect for him, and wound up serving as his own salvation.

It’s the rarest of unicorns – two competing alpha males whose masculinity isn’t toxic.

“I think the first [female character] I’m going to talk about is actually Shuri, played by Letitia.

That character, to have a little sister, it’s not very often that you see a superhero with a little sister. So I think that is probably not going to occur to people that that, it’s not unheard of but it’s an unusual thing, so I think it brings out a different part of his character. […]

All these characters are strong. Even if it’s not a physical prowess, there is a mental prowess. It’s intelligence and savvy and so all of them present that, but the one that stands out the most actually is Shuri because of the ability, the way a little sister can poke at you and you’re protective of her but she still thinks she’s your mother, like all those different things.”  — Chadwick Boseman
