Black Panther (Ryan Coogler, 201

As you would expect for a sum of around $200 million, Black Panther is a visually stunning film. It is also the latest tedious example of the fascist garbage that Hollywood has been producing since Birth of a Nation in 1915. That this is a confused film becomes evident when one encounters the African Kingdom of Wakanda, part of it comprised of semi-nomadic herders, part of it the most advanced modern state in history due to a precious mineral called Vibranium. If this is not a contradiction, then the proposition that this is the most advanced society in the world that selects its rulers by armed combat seems to confirm it as such.

But the point of these and the Marvel franchise is to ridicule democracy and the rule of law, and replace it with some form of hero-worship based on violence as power. In our real world, heroes and heroines are usually people who put their life at risk -may even sacrifice it- to save others, but who do so at the time because they believe it is the best thing to do, and if they survive ask for no reward. The 'Super-Hero' not only has physical powers endowed by magic or a special metal, they appear either as a Messiah figure who will save the world from destruction, or as a Fuhrer who will lead his people to a new and successful time. Crucially, the enemy is destroyed with violence, because democracy is a feeble form of rule, whereas Monarchy is wise, virtuous and endures -unless of course the monarch is greedy and over-ambitious. But that is not supposed to happen in the advanced Kingdom of Wakanda though it does, and can you believe that in his utterly phoney 'Black Power' extravaganza, the man who prevents the Vibranium from being exported to destroy London, New York and Hong Kong is not only a Cracker, but a CIA Cracker? But the film is crackers, with its ridiculous African chants, its bizarre sets that fuse Game of Thrones with Blade Runner and Star Wars. And the only other white guy of importance is a villain with a Suffafrican accent, get it?

On the other hand, there is Letitia Wright, who can visit me anytime, even if this thin damsel is in need of pizza and ice cream, and rather a lot of my domestic vibranium.

Annihilation - pretentious drivel. Not sure who was more bored me or the leads, who mostly phoned their performances in.

So I thought I'd follow it by some mindless fun, ended up with terminus which turned out to be quite dull to.

I hated how it became something more than a comic book movie.
