Black Panther mania is real — the Marvel movie is *crushing* it at the box office — and it's been absolutely thrilling to witness the well-deserved hype around the film. On Thursday, one man took it to the next level with a Black Panther-themed marriage proposal that has me sobbing into my corn flakes.
At a Thursday night screening at Brooklyn's Alamo Drafthouse, a man dressed up as King T'challa of Wakanda and proposed to his girlfriend. Look at this photo and try not to feel all the emotions:
She said yes! Hooray! And, best part, his fiancé was seeing the movie with her girlfriends, and our hero didn't even have a ticket. After getting his "yes," he had to leave the theater because you know the showing was sold out!
Of course, everyone in the theater freaked:
Ugh, I'm getting so emotional thinking about the power of love, and the power of this film, and how there are some really great things in this world.
Let's watch the trailer again and again until I go see the movie the second I'm done with work. (And I mean that almost literally — I'm off at 6 p.m. and I'm seeing a 6:15 p.m. showing!)
