Wakanda based on the map of MCU fandom cross-checked with Google Maps is on Lake Turkana, Turkana County, Kenya.
As we all know it's popular criticism of the MCU that we have to do "homework" to fully understand the plot and characters but there also multiple projects that don't require that because they're either standalone or self-explanatory, especially in The Multiverse Saga. For example the entire Phase 1 (minus the Avengers) doesn't require to watch previous movies except for Iron Man 2 but that's understandable because it's a sequel. In Phase 2 we don't really need to watch Avengers to understand Guardians of the Galaxy, with Ant-Man, maybe a bit. In Phase 3 I think Doctor Strange stands very well on his own and we don't need to watch any of the previous movies to understand it. To understand GOTG2 we only really need to watch the first one, the rest can be ignored. Black Panther also doesn't really require us to watch Civil War to truly understand it. I think only Captain Marvel credit scene requires from us to know what happened in previous movies. In Phase 4 there are Loki, Shang-Chi, Eternals, What If, Werewolf By Night, Ms Marvel that are self-explanatory enough so we don't have to watch previous movies, Moon Knight is standalone story so we can watch it without a problem, to understand Wakanda Forever I think we just need to watch the first one since events of Avengers aren't really important to the plot. In Phase 5 there's Deadpool & Wolverine for which we only have to watch Deadpool 2 really and maybe Logan, but Loki isn't really required for that, or any other of the projects involving the Resistance characters. Daredevil Born Again requires to watch only Og show and Defenders but that's only because it's basically season 4 of it, Ironheart doesn't require to watch Wakanda Forever to understand it in my opinion, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man also doesn't require to watch any of the previous movies/shows, while Thunderbolts* only really require to watch Black Widow, and maybe TFATWS. The Fantastic Four seems like it also doesn't require from us to watch anything else so there's that. Is there any other MCH project that in your opinion doesn't require watching previous ones or at least just 1 or 2?
Because you like MCU? Because I just did. I mean seriously what kind of logic is that?

I've seen that the Ronan's spaceship in Captain Marvel is named "Silver Aster", but I can't find the source o where that comes from, and the same thing for the "Gorilla City" from Black Panther. So I don't know if it's wrong.
I like to know all that stuff, I'd appreciate if someone could explain me.
Thank you!
How old was Killmonger when he died in black panther. If he was a young kid in 1992 I guess he might of been 8 or something like that so then in black panther he would be 32. Even though he looks like he is 20 but hey, T’Challa was 36 in black panther 1 so it doesn’t really matter because he looked like he was mid 20s. So how old do y’all think killmonger was when he died or she do you think he was born?
Black Panther is an average MCU movie imo. Back in 2018, I really didn't understand all of the hype the movie got. Personally I find it a bit overrated. But that's just my opinion.
Honestly, my favorite moment is anything that has Killmonger. But I guess it would be the final battle.

What threats would Shuri and the rest of the Wakanda will face?
I've been thinking a lot about the possibility of an Agents of Wakanda Show, which could be a spin-off series from Agents of Shield. I believe that so far in the MCU, there could be a chance for there to be one given what we've been shown so far and it'll explore more of the world and people of Wakanda, with that we could see missions of everyday Wakandians Agents of War Dogs and Doras.
So thanks to Vibranium wakanda is super advanced with buildings and technology that think is from the future. They are even able heal injuries that would take a long time to heal in one night. But if you are a royal blood you can rule the hole thing with a fight to a death. I know the king has to be strong to protect Wakanda and it’s people but like in the first Black Panther movie it lead to a super villain taking it over and changing everything.
Remember when Thor: Ragnarok was released before Black Panther...
Well Marvel seems to have done it again because Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is releasing after Thor: Love and Thunder. Both Wakanda Forever and Love and Thunder are sequels to the first Black Panther film and Ragnarok. Is this just a consequence?
Think about it: T'Challa's father (T'Chaka) is dead, meaning that he is next in line to become the king of Wakanda. His cousin, Erik Killmonger, arrives believing that he also technically has a claim to the throne. They fight, resulting in Erik winning and claiming the throne, just like Scar did when he killed Mufasa. T'Challa is actually still alive though and his friends and family convince him to face Erik and save Wakanda. T'Challa beats Erik this time and becomes king.
There are some things that are different: Simba's father Mufasa is still alive at the beginning, whereas T'Challa's father T'Chaka was killed in Civil War. Scar and Mufasa don't technically fight. Rather Scar just throws Mufasa into the path of stampeding wildebeest. Scar's reign of terror across the Pride Lands lasts about 15 years whilst Erik's reign of terror over Wakanda lasts about 1-2 days. Simba goes into hiding and matures whereas T'Challa doesn't.
There are also some things that are the same: The opponents are related to each other: Scar is Simba's uncle and T'Challa is Erik's cousin. Both T'Challa and Simba have a vision of their father, giving the strength they need to take back the throne. Scar and Killmonger defeat Simba and T'Challa by throwing them off a ledge. However, Mufasa does not survive the fall whereas T'Challa lives.
I made a post about this in may, and I decided to make a new one in June. I wen't on Rotten Tomatoes and picked the top.
For me I'd be Black Panther, Chadwick Bosemen was obviously the best part of the film despite the weak script, but Shuri is just annoying Killmonger isn't an interesting villain, Klaue is also annoying, and the pacing is confusing between Civil War and Black Panther.
Let me know your thoughts down below.
Everyone was so crazy about Black Panther when it came out, but I wasn't. Killmonger wasn't that special, and the ending was extremely disappointing to one of my favorite characters in Marvel Comics.
Remember when Killmonger said his ancestors committed not alive in order to avoid bondage, 2 questions, aren't his ancestors also T'Challa's ancestors? And how can they be his ancestors if they committed not alive.
And the idea of Wakanda is not realistic, not because of the tech, it's because of its function. In order for a nation to succeed, they need trade, and Wakanda has a lot to offer, but it doesn't trade, only bad can come from nations who don't trade. It's like playing uno, and having a good card that will make you win, but you chose not to use it.
Let me know your thoughts.
Just a little critique of mine for the movie.
Over all it was a fantastic movie and one of Marvel’s best.
However, and you are free to disagree with me on this, the one thing (the ONLY thing) I hated about it was the first fight between Killmonger and T’Challa.
I found it to be (honestly) stupidly predictable and I really hated the ending of it. However, fortunately it did not ruin the movie for me and their second fight was much much better. More intense and had one helluva ending.
But what did you guys think of the movie?
What did you like or not like about it?
Do many of the MCU script writers have a common love for setting big action scenes with trains? Captain America: The First Avenger, Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Captain Marvel…and now Hawkeye.
Not that it’s a problem. It’s just a reoccurring thing I’ve noticed for the past couple years in this multi film franchise.
