I'm not RACIALLY prejudiced, but I'm prejudiced in OTHER ways as I'm rooting for THE BLACK PANTHER movie to win Best Picture at The Oscars Sunday night!!
1.) Even though I haven't seen any of the other movies it's competing against, I'm prejudiced FOR The Panther because it's a Marvel Superhero movie. Mercedes and I have seen SEVERAL of these classics, and we feel they have not been getting their due in Hollywood...not taken seriously enough. And besides, The Panther was a GREAT movie!! I said so when it first came out one year ago (see my blogs for Feb. 2nd, 17th and 27th of last year, to read WHY I loved it.)
2.) I'm prejudiced towards MARVEL comics over DC...always have been...and I want to see a MARVEL movie become the first comic book movie EVER to score big at the Oscars. And...
3.) I'm prejudiced towards The Panther because I hope that the late STAN LEE and JACK KIRBY will be mentioned (Stan, especially) as The Panther's co-creators...and THEY won't be mentioned unless the MOVIE goes on and wins big.
Stan Lee, who died only about 3 months ago, had a cameo in just about every every Marvel flick and Stan's fans would be thrilled if The Panther wins. Jack Kirby died 25 years ago this month, and co-created MANY of the Marvel heroes which now dominate the Box Office. HE should get HIS honorable mention, TOO.
Above: A pic of Stan with CHADWICK BOSEMAN, Black Panther star, accompanied my letter to the NY Daily News when Stan died.
Oh yeah, despite learning of her lies (see my blogs for Nov. 21st and 29th of last year and Feb. 9th of THIS one), I'm happy CICELY TYSON will be receiving a belated Honorary Oscar Sunday night. It's long overdue, and, after all, she is some actress.
