I’ll just say this, Black Panther was good, really good. But if you think it deserves a Best Pic Nom over Widows or If Beale Street Could Talk, please don’t give me your opinion on film anymore

The ones who think the movie isn’t all that…
Unpopular opinion: Avengers Infinity war should’ve been nominated over Black Panther. Infinity war was a better movie and Black Panther was overrated. https://t.co/PVq4SfcbSO

I enjoyed Black Panther but it wasnt an Oscar worthy film, out of all the superhero films the 3 that deserved oscars were Logan, The Dark Knight and Infinity War. Black Panther again is a good movie but seriously over rated.
