In cannon, Wakanda culture is a progenitor of ancient Egypt, making Wakanda more than 6,000 years old. So I think the cannon argument is that Xhosa (and civilization) left Wakanda.

No, because it’s John Kani’s natural accent. (T’Chaka)

“If it’s supposed to not have been conquered—which means that advancement has happened without colonialism tainting it, poisoning the well of it, without stopping it or disrupting it—then there’s no way he would speak with a European accent.”

This shows a general misunderstanding of accents and dialects. Boseman’s argument makes emotional sense, but it doesn’t make an logical sense. Wakandans should not have spoken english at all if they weren’t a colonized state. The accent he uses to speak english is indicative of having been raised in a culture that

No, he was speaking Wakandan translated into French by the film.

So in France was T’Challa speaking French with a Wakandan accent?

They weren’t. The movie was translating so English-speaking people would understand it. Also remember that it’s translated into dozens of other languages across the world. So it’s only English because you’re choosing to hear it only in English.

There is also a tree that speaks three english words in different inflections that apparently mean something so there is that as well. 

Asguardians speak allspeak and thus understand and are understood by all species in the universe.

At the same time, this is a blessing for Nat/Scarlett for me. Russian accents are pretty tough to pull off without sounding cartoonish. Red Sparrow is a terrible movie on its own (lack of) merits, but Jennifer Lawrence’s go at a Russian accent sounded less like “I am a lethal Russian assassin” and more “I vas trained

Kinda weirder that they’re all speaking English in Wakanda when there were no outsiders there till about 3/4 through the movie?

I’m fine with what they did, but it’s hardly ridiculous for an upper-class African to speak English with a British accent because many upper-class Africans either attended schools in the UK or had British teachers/tutors.  If T’Challa had been given a British accent when speaking English, it accordingly wouldn’t have

Presumably the explanation would have been that he had attended Oxbridge. Most likely Oxford, as Americans would be more likely to have heard of it. So an RP accent is probably what they meant.

One in 7 current prime ministers, the heads of 27 out of 190 countries went to a UK school.

Jar Jar is the key to all of this.

Why is this news?

Rey = Snoke confirmed.

Aretha was of their generation and she liked them, especially Hillary. And don’t forget JJJr is Clinton’s boy. That did not bother me.

Jasper had given Ms. Franklin’s father eulogy so I assume the family want to continue with it. 

I had a moment of, “wait a minute. Is that Farrakhan? HOW OLD IS HE NOW????”
