Sydney Sweeney, Colman Domingo, and Jacob Elordi were both better and they're proving their talents more with their other work since Euphoria. Zendaya hasn't really had anything else notable

He's a beautiful man ngl

His killmonger is dogshit dude is the least convincing “villain” I’ve ever seen

He doesn’t have the biggest range as an actor but his Killmonger is one of the best performances in the whole MCU.

How do people make a distinction at killmonger that’s as bad a performance to me as anything else

they are the same to me lmao, that’s why the Johnathan majors s*** makes me sick

Killmonger is a great character. He did the character justice. Idk what there is to complain about there. If anything I think it's proof he should take edgier roles.

And he won't because he can cash a fat check being a golden boy. Then he'll go for an Oscar in some biopic.

He’s alright, crazy that it warrants a whole thread tho icl

I'm glad he didn't do the romcom thing, Tessa Thompson is always like that in her movies and I hate it

Real.

I find it funny you made this thread but you "admit" his performance in Black Panther was good. He's the reason I think Killmonger sucks. His acting feels so wooden and forced. When he tries to act "hard" I just can't.

M'Baku>>>>>

I take that back about Will not saying he's a bad actor at all. He can be great and amazing in some cases but he mainly sticks to the persona that we all know and love in his roles for the most part. Pursuit of Happiness is one of my fave movies of all times.

For the most part yeah, but he's got some good roles here and there.

Fruitvale Station
Creed
Friday Night Lights
Just Mercy

MBJ has something about him like an aura or presence on screen that makes him likeable to watch or easy to root for. Exactly what a "movie star" should be like imo.

I will say he will be an even better director than he is actor if Creed 3 is anything to go off of.

Fruitvale station is still his best role and movie for me. Even though it's depressing af.

he the new will smith

Man seeing everyone in the thread bring up BP and Killmonger makes me miss Chadwick even more.

He was on his way to being Denzel Status and would def won an Oscar by now.

He not really getting his credit for directing Creed 3. That s*** was solid forreal I'd often roll my eyes whenever he'd say him being a fan of anime influences him, but that influence really was present throughout Creed 3 and it was actually better for it.

When MBJ finally makes that DBZ movie I've been wanting since I was a kid in like 10-20 years

Will is like Tom Cruise where he can give you a great performance but in specific vein like demonstrative protagonist yadayada or just chewing scenery anti-hero guy

I predict he'll be something similar to this Gens Will Smith where he will be in blockbusters for the most part while doing a dramatic role here and there for oscsr buzz.

I Expect to see MBJ in even more things for the rest of this decade as Hollywood's golden boy/IT Black Guy.

There's no one who could really fill that void especially now. Chadwick is gone (RIP) Majors crashed out and lost everything, and JDW will be compared to his dad for the rest of his career

Will Smith was funny and cool tho
