  8. Black Panther is a 70 rt not the high 90s it has its not that good of a movie and has been done before and the CGI was horrible

  9. Why do people forget Blade? Wesley Snipes was before Chad. Before that was Spawn with Michael Jai White. Not shre if Spawn is in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but Blade is

  10. I truly wish he had more time in this natural life. He was such a good guy. Black Panther was an amazing movie. He will never ever be forgotten.

  11. Simone, lifting you in prayer…. Chad was blessed to meet and marry you.

  12. Wow! No wonder he fell for her! Wakanda for ever!

  13. I genuinely love this man

  14. Beautiful yet sad….Chad was the truth.. RIP… glad we got the pleasure..

  15. Im not crying. It's the invisible onions 😭

  16. “Grief moves in, sits on your shoulder, and says I’m not going anywhere” 😢💔 RIP Chadwick and praying for his family ❤

  17. I am so sorry about your loss. I do believe the love of the people we lose stay with us forever, may his love live with you for eternity. May he rest in peace.

  18. Beautiful, Simone. We can see all the reasons he was in love with you and all of the ways greatness was planned for you both. Be blessed, Sister!

  19. I’ve grown older thinking that I couldn’t be handsome or powerful just because I was a black boy. Maybe in my heart I was destined to be forever a sidekick to a powerful person. Chadwick Boseman taught me I could be more. One day I was invisible, after Black Panther I had same face and hair as a king, our king. While I watched this video my son just came in and saw him. He said: You look like him dad, are you a Black Panther too? Yeah baby, I am, you are, we all now are. Losing him was like losing a brother, I even had a dream about him where I told him how important he is to me. He was smiling and playing with some children while I was telling him all of this. He might be gone, but his legacy is alive, cause I’m his legacy, and also millions of boys out there. I know he’d be happy with Letitia inspiring so many girls around the globe now, including my daughter. Chad, Mr. Boseman, my king, as long as I’m alive you’ll live in my heart, mind and soul. You’re my everlasting inspiration and there’s no how it’s going to change, not even for a bit. #WakandaForever

  20. I loved him in Get on up!! Portraying JAMES BROWN …His portrayal Amazed me , made me laugh, made me cry , made me think, and just UNDERSTAND THE PERSPECTIVE OF the human side of the movie I Totally ENJOY THE ENTIRE MOVIE ..Honestly, when a actor can Just make you believe he was truely the person he is playing .WHEN THE AUDIENCE KNOWS ITS NOT JAMES BROWN BUT CHAD PORTRAYING MR.BROWN that is a SUPERSTAR !!

  21. She is amazing, impressive human being, woman. No such wonder as to why he found her fascinating. The insightful expression of her sorrow, is interesting, an interesting way to explain her day to day. Very articulate, she speaks eloquently, still seems brokenhearted, understandably. Perhaps in the future, near future she may receive a chance to have a show with a group or her own chance to interview guests, her interests of course factored, seems to me she kept pace with W.G and held herself strong. May God bless her with support, with community, connection.

  22. In memory of Chadwick Boseman

  23. In memory of Chadwick Boseman. He was only nominated for an Oscar once for Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
