- Oh, lord, I can't believe I forgot about Queen Ramonda. Yes, it 100% makes sense that Ramonda would take over until Shuri was ready. (But, in my heart of hearts, I still really want Nakia to be getting in on the ruling-the-country action because I liked her so much in Black Panther) - Yeah, my boyfriend pointed out that the OG avengers were left standing, which kind of makes sense from a cross-movie story arc perspective. (It doesn't do much to soothe my personal prickliness about having heroes who aren't white men, but I understand a bit more where it came from) - Yes, agree 100% on getting to see more Wakanda! I wonder how young girls start dreaming about being dora milaje? Do most kids go through a phase (like being a vet or teacher) or is it more of a niche thing? What is social mobility like in Wakanda? What about moving from one tribe to another? Do kids get kimoyo beads when they're young (elementary age) or older? Are kimoyo bead memes 2D or 3D? So many questions! - OKAY, YES, I did see the Avengers: endgame trailer just now! (I watched it 'cause you and the other commenters talked about it) I remain at least as uncertain as I was before, so take that! Is it too cynical to wonder if--assuming people can be "unsnapped"--the odds of of T'Challa and Sam Wilson coming back are worse than Ant Man (okay bad example--Peter Parker)? 'Cause the writers might still need to Show They Mean Business.
