60. "We Assure You, We Still Love Chadwick" - Honoring Chadwick Boseman with Get On Up, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, and Black Panther

Wakanda Forever means Wakanda *forever.* It's been a long time coming (not helped by TJ forgetting to actually send the episode audio, whoops), but today's episode is another spotlight, this time on an artist taken from us far too soon: the king of black biopics, the incredible and impactful Chadwick Boseman. After much deliberation, where mistakes were surely made, we've selected three films to touch on this man's talent with his intense physical work in Get On Up, his effortless regality in Black Panther, and his final Oscar nominated performance in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. Join us for discussions on the misuse of direct address, a clear lack of BTS, Michael B. Jordan (just… all of him), and how much the world still needs T’Challa.
