Just watched it. Pretty much not noteworthy at all for a Marvel film. Only thing that I guess matters is Vibranium as I'm sure that somehow ties into Thanos in Infinity Wars. Acting was fine, very VERY heavy on the "Africa" vibe and the fight scenes were very mediocre.
If it was any other movie I'd give it like a 7.5/10. Nothing special but not terrible. As a Marvel movie I'd give it like a 5/10. Villain was meh, hero was wooden, supporting cast was fine, not nearly enough humor. The action was basically non-existent and the "final fight" was super fucking weak sauce.

Saw this yesterday and really enjoyed it. I loved the fact that the central conflict of the movie was whether or not Wakanda had any responsibility to use their resources to help others, and that they didn't pretend like it was an easy or obvious choice. The fact that T'Challa's father's decision to protect his people at the cost of abandoning a child led to the creation of the "villain" seemed a bit "on the nose", but it was nice to see these characters face moral and ethical challenges that we ourselves often have to consider in the modern political climate.
Loved the design of Wakanda with its fusion of futuristic tech and ancient tradition, with one exception: Those lip discs. I'm pretty good at suspending disbelief in fantasy/sci-fi movies but my brain just couldn't rationalize how an advanced society who has welcomed and greatly benefited from high technology would mutilate their faces for no practical purpose, but maybe that's just me.
I cringed at the "What are thooooooooose?" line and I wasn't psyched to see yet another "hero vs evil version of hero" battle, but most everything else worked great IMO. I enjoyed the action scenes and found the warrior women were great fun to watch (even if the nipples on those red outfits reminded me a bit of Schumaker's Batman suit). While the movie could have benefited from a little more humor, I'm glad Black Panther himself is not another smarmy wise-cracking joker, which Marvel seems to give us a lot of. The movie ended on kind of a significant note, plot-wise, so I'm wondering whether this will have world-changing effects that will be reflected in Marvels' future movies.

So how did Wakanda prevent radio transmissions from leaving their bubble and thus revealing their position? I would imagine the HAM radio types would be interested in radio broadcasts from the middle of a jungle.

I saw it. Was OK.
Places dead last in MCU for me. Taking Ironman 3's place. Ironman 3 still rubs me the wrong way for how they screwed the Mandarin over.
BP is still above all of the DCEU except Wonder Woman.
Some movie has to be last in the MCU and this one is it, for now.

China rejecting black panther though, receipts down 80% after one week. It'll be out of theaters by next weekend, still make $100m or so which is pretty much what every MCU movie has done there except for Avengers and Captain America ($235m and $175m)
Black Panther seen as too 'politically correct' for China as ticket sales tumble

Finally got to see it, it was pretty good some obviously dumb parts like the Rhino mounts that should have never made it into the movie.
The actual villain's character arc was good, Wally did a good job, and he's probably the best villain in the franchise to date, but his powers were the same as the Black Panther, it would have been better if he didn't have a copycat suit.
There wasn't enough comedy, which is the biggest draw for me..Also they went over board with the effects, there were a lot of scenes where less would have been more.
There were some terrible lines in the trailer, and I'm glad some of the dumb stuff got left out, but god really Rhino mounts?
Probably give it a 7/10
