Black Panther became the first film since Avatar to top the box office in America for five straight weekends and has also grossed more than $1.2 billion worldwide. In the next week, it’s expected to pass The Avengers as the highest grossing superhero film ever, and it’s only been out for a full month!
We’ve said many times that the internet is like a virtual playground where everything can be turned into entertainment. Black Panther was full of quotables, memorable scenes and references to pop culture that make it almost necessary to talk about.
According to Twitter, the box office hit has been tweeted about over 35 million times, pushing it ahead of the previous record holder: Star Wars: The Force Awakens. So far, the top three most tweeted-about movies of 2018 are Black Panther in first place, Star Wars: The Last Jedi in second, and Avengers: Infinity War in third.
