He said that in the idea of following his friend (T'Challa) into battle type thing, some friend he was after, Man-Ape was more honourable. |
Additionally I would point out that he was content (for all we know) for the past king to do nothing for thirty years to bring Klaue to justice. His best friend makes his FIRST official act as king, to go and capture him, against the advice of the council. He fails only because Killmonger rescued Klaue. He treats this “failure” as a betrayal and immediately backs the coup of the man whose father’s real betrayal led to his parents’ death. He then forsakes their laws by ignoring the challenge and going into battle against his king. I’m sorry. Those motivations are nonexistent on the page. I blame the writing. But it’s a clear sign that the story was not given a suitable ending. In discussing it with Veknoid, it’s like they decided what the ending should be and worked backward. It’s a major flaw in the structure of the film. Almost every other character is well written. It’s the antigonists that are given little to work with.
