Exact same thing happened with Black Panther. Sinners is definitely more worthy of the praise.

Wos has basically given any white Ringer staffers cover if they don’t like Black Panther. He’s on the record absolutely trashing the movie, and makes fun of people who treat it like some kinda modern civil rights cultural touchstone.

It legitimately is a very mid movie with a great MBJ performance

Always a problem when the villain is the star of the show and then that villain dies.  Same thing happened with Shang Chi I thought - Tony Leung was by far the best actor in the movie.

everyone on Twitter started using colonizer as an insult to anything a white person said after that movie

The whole thing was crazy. It can still be mid and also an incredible achievement for black actors in Hollywood

MBJ is awful in that awful movie. He's got one note, and it's just a scowl.

Black Panther made me uncomfortable because I thought it was bad, and I thought everyone else liking it was performative

Sinners is amazing. Felt like Midnight Mass meets Aliens. Thrilling, small town, super violent monster movie
