Stop replying to obvious trollbait god dammit.
I can't figure out, from a pure business standpoint...
Black Panther came after a long list of critically-acclaimed Marvel movies. If it was released on its own without any of the prior Disney power chugging behind it (as well as stupid shit like inner cities taking entire schools to see it) it would have done about as well as Hancock. It doesn't stand out even among that particular pantheon.
You can't tell me what to do!
It's simple really
>Captain America is made
>Falcon is his buddy
>Falcon takes over
From a business standpoint, SHINY NEW HERO is always going to have some appeal, even if it eventually doesn't work out, and even if, like this case, there's not much new to it.
You know there's a whole board for this kind of stupidity, right? I assume you guys can at least read. It's the one that says "pol" between the fun little lines.
>why change characters or designs
to sell more merch
Anthony Mackie is a good actor who is charming and Chris Evans is done with the role. The only other candidate is Bucky who is a tired war criminal who wants to rest
Yet it made more money than literally every other solo movie under the critically-acclaimed Marvel brand.
You won't argue with me because you know I'm right. Black leads are a huge detriment to movies. Will Smith, Idris Elba and Denzel Washington at their best can't rake in the numbers Tom Cruise or Bruce Willis can on a bad day, especially not overseas. All you can do is call me a racist for pointing out basic patterns any movie executive would agree with (privately of course.)

I won't argue with you because I know this isn't the place for your dumbassery, go back to your flock.
