They say it's breaking every record, but it isn't. It isn't beating The Avengers. In fact, if you go on Box Office Mojo, scroll down and look at the Showdown...

http://www.boxofficemojo.com

It's called MCU Top Openers.

Black Panther vs. Avengers: Age of Ultron

Wow, Black Panther is crushing it!! $561 million to $404 million! It's not even close!!

Yet, if you click the link to see the full showdown, you see the truth, that The Avengers is still on top by a long shot.

It's really dishonest how they're presenting it that way.

Yeah. It's a huge success, but it's like they want to make people think it's the top Marvel movie and it just isn't. Worldwide it's still $500 million behind.

The box office lies don't bother me that much. The claims that it's the 'first black superhero movie' do, as well as the whole 'realistic portrayal of African culture.'

Blade exists, and their gods are Indian.

Film industry piggybacks on political trends for publicity all the time.

Black Panther film is big right now and popular on social media as a political/cultural miracle.
Might as well cash in on it; that's marketing.
