Black Panther was one of those movies that if you weren’t planning to see it, after a day or so of it’s release, you had a sudden change of heart! Our household (and by this I mean my husband) are HUGE Marvel fans. I’ve mentioned previously, he is just one of those guys who finds comfort in the geekier things in life. It’s one of the things I enjoy most about him! I’ve learnt so much about the Marvel Universe and once you do, you can’t help but want to know it all!

When the Black Panther movie was announced, it was no different from any others… We needed to own it! What we didn’t know was the absolute fan’s delight that would be waiting for us when we did! I don’t know about you, but I love watching Marvel movies for a second or third time, to catch all the little things I missed the first time. There are always so many back stories and little “Easter-eggs” left for fans, that once is never enough.

Black Panther’s Blu Ray Special Features Include:

  1. Commentary from the Director Ryan Coogler, and Production Designer Hannah Beachler throughout the movie explaining the thought process behind the why and the how. This is such a treat, there is just so much more than what appears initially.
  2. Discussions with Coogler, the creator of the Black Panther character and some of the writers who wrote the early Black Panther comics. They discuss the history and significance of the character.  Black Panther was created in the 1970’s, when Marvel’s audience was primarily young white males during a rioting time. The introduction of an African King had to be understood in a way that was accessible to the audience – and how they managed to do this. So interesting and exciting!
  3. A sneak peak Trailer for Antman and the Wasp. Another one I am excited about!
  4. Gag reel showing deleted scenes never released. Definitely one for the fans!

Black Panther Review

No Spoilers! Most Notable Difference about Black Panther!

With all the differences that came from the creation of Black Panther, including this being the first solo black superhero movie in the Marvel Canon. It also boasted a predominately black cast and with such a big budget it was really risky. Obviously this paid off as it has been the highest grossing movie in terms of ticket sales, next to Avengers: Infinity War! The most notable thing for us though, is the villain in this movie. Killmonger is a fully fleshed out villain, he has a full story of his own. This includes his motivations for why he does the things that he does. These are completely believable and relatable. Which is unusual as Marvel generally focuses solely on the Superhero and his own history and bases for perception.

Of course, I loved this movie. I love re-experiencing it. And I loved the bonus features! If you are a Marvel fan, you will be happy to know the Blu Ray and DVD are available at leading stores!
