Black Panther No. 3 All Time ?!!!


Note: I added my Instagram link to the right. Daily stuff. We will be back live at MNN on May 5.

Mini-review:
Quite Place: 4 out of 5: My beef was the opening, who leaves a little kid to bring up the rear? (relax, its in the trailer). In the animal kingdom the prey always looks for the smallest in the herd to attack. But the rest was great. Kraskinski is going to have a good future as a Director if he keeps this up. They should give him the Alien franchise. He got the horror sci-fi angle to the T.

Here's my 2 cents: It kept my attention through out the film and it was only 90 minutes long! Not a bloated over 2 hours long of a film in love with itself. Know how to edit your film directors!  This one got it right.

Now that Black Panther is No. 3 of all time U.S. boxoffice!??, a lot of pressure is on Marvel for Infinity War to hit the top 5 of all time. Panther beating Titanic is the big head scratcher of all time.
But in the meantime Quiet Place is going to enjoy its run while Rampage is screwed. Look at Pacific Rim 2 and how that's disappearing quick. Audiences are not into Big Giant things at the moment so good luck with that. And for that other 800 lb gorilla in the room........

This don't look good at all. It doesn't matter to me either way. I'm there for the wookie and the ship.
Will this do good as Rogue One remains to be seen. But if this tanks, lol by Disney standards money wise, they will start thinking about all the other stand alone movies. Obi-wan is fine but a Boba Fett? No thanks.

Bonus:
I found this in the closet when I thought it got lost in the flood thanks to Hurricane Maria.
This IS the original model plastic kit released back in the 1980's never put together. The problem with the kit is that the back actually glowed but it needed big ass D Batteries to light up the back with LEDs. What happened was it tilted the model onto its ass cause it was heavy at the back end. When the model got released again for the Return of the Jedi they excluded that feature with no light or batteries. I never put it together for that reason little knowing that now I have a original kit. Yeah it's still inside the box lol.
