No, you say dumb shit that gets torn to shreds all the time. An opportunist who tries to make cash isn't close to being like the Joker in any way, shape, or form. I know you're in the running for retard of the year but chill out. I know I shouldn't be saying this but you already won. I'm sealing the envelope right now.
Well, there were some implications before, but I feel like [SPOILER - highlight to read]: the whole spirit communication thing when someone takes the herb is the heaviest hint so far.

Though there are still people sticking with the Heimdall theory, which would actually be quite plausible if it wasn't for the fact that the Asgardians specifically handed over the Aether to the Collector because the Tesseract was already in Asgard, and they didn't want two Stones near each other. Meanwhile, on Earth...
Collector himself didn't seem concerned though. IIRC, he had already acquired the Aether before trying to get the Power Stone in GotG vol 1.

Also, the SJW stuff was not there like some people were bitching about. A dude raised in Oakland by his father who was serious about the oppression and hardships of Sub-Saharan African people living all over the world. He indoctrinated his son and his son lived and saw that oppression on the daily. Of course he will have strong feelings about wanting to do something about the "plight of his people." Nothing SJW about that. Any different than the Avatar stuff? Oppressed Blue People vs. Oppressed Black People?
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Anyway, Warmonger lost the fight. T'Challa spared him when Warmonger was on his back with a blade in his face. T'Challa lost that fight with too much mercy. What happens in that fight if T'Challa was brutal and decisive and immediately cut Warmonger's throat once he had him beaten and on the ground? Much different movie.
The first time seeing his dad got me in the feels since I lost my own father. It was well done.
Some great acting. Some terrible acting. Warmonger's acting was hit or miss. He needed to have more rage and far less "stereotypical hollywood black gangster arrogance" in his introductory throne room speech. It just felt...off and awkward. He does much better with his rage later in the film.
Best line in the film is when he says, "Nah, just bury me in the ocean with my ancestors that jumped from the ships. Because they knew death was better than bondage." Nice.
Very nice in-depth review. I don't agree with everything you said but I still appreciate people making the effort to do this kind of review.
I did not see that at all. In fact, I think you're ridiculously wrong on this point, here. Are there 2 billion African Americans living in the US? Are there African Americans living all over the world in many different countries being oppressed and kept unarmed to prevent them from rising up against their oppressors? Did you miss the part where he wants to send weapons to Sub-Saharan Africans to all of the Wakanda Sleeper Agents in countries all over the world? He wasn't sending them only to the US: it was all over the world. He wanted a global uprising to improve the plight "of his people."

I bet WB are kicking themselves for not getting on with a John Stewart as GL film and Sony for not putting out a Miles Morales Spider-Man when they rebooted.
