Black Panther was seemingly made for the sake of being the MCU's first black-lead movie. And it's great. Drag can't think of any other movies made for the sake of being woke, so we'll just have to rely on this sample size of 1 which says woke movies are awesome.
How much are we considering earlier Marvel as part of the MCU? Because even though it was before Iron Man/Hulk and the official "start" of the current MCU, a lot of people seem to forget that the Blade Trilogy existed...
Howard the Duck.
Blade will become an MCU movie when its canon is referenced in another canon MCU property. Until then, it isn't. And even if Blade becomes an MCU movie due to a crossover, it won't have been the first to fit into the canon.
It was ok. I didn’t get the hype around it and didn’t think it was great or as good as everyone was saying it was.
Same. I was told "It's nothing like the other MCU movies, you'll love it!", and I watched it and... it's probably the best MCU movie I've seen, but still very MCU.
