For years people have been anticipating the sequel to Black Panther, but it became even more important with the devastating loss of Chadwick Boseman, the original Black Panther.  When he unexpectantly died of Colon Cancer the world was devastated.  Everyone wondered how Marvel would move on without Boseman who was adored around the world.

Black Panther Wakanda Forever had sold out dozens of theaters before it even premiered garnering an impressive 180 million opening weekend. ″‘Wakanda Forever’ is living up to expectations as not just an important tentpole blockbuster for Disney and movie theaters, but also a memorial to Chadwick Boseman that fans are sharing and experiencing together,” said Shawn Robbins, chief analyst at BoxOffice.com.

Movie Goers all over the world were having themed Wakanda Forever parties.  Houston is no different. The Wakanda Forever Red-Carpet 3D Experience was a great success on opening night.  Chandra Whittaker led the planning for this awesome event.  They boosted a Live DJ, delicious finger foods, 360 Photo booths, Door Prizes, VIP Swag Bags, Step and Repeat which recognized the event sponsors, and Holographic Special Edition Posters and t-shirts for VIPs only.  This plush event was held at Regal Edwards Greenway Grand Palace Serenx  & RPX Theater at 3839 Wesleyan St. Houston, TX 77027.

Wakanda Forever did not disappoint with a theater full of festively dressed descendants of Africa who were proud to journey to the land of Wakanda again.  The movie was even better and more detailed than Black Panther.    The 3-D experience only intensified the experience.  I know this is another instant classic that many of us will watch countless times.
