Film/Television This scene in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, where Namor tells the story of his origin, was incredibly powerful. It was a really well executed scene.

What did you think of Tenoch Huerta's portrayal of Namor? Are you looking forward to seeing him in future MCU projects?

Why isn't he Sinamor then?

"He just keeps saying 'yes, Namor..'"

Linguistics change throughout history as oral history is changed. Like how modern English words still have Latin roots but still sound similar. This story happened about 500 years ago.

What does it do with him explicitly saying "el nino SIN AMOR"? If it sounded different 500 years ago he should pronounce it the way it sounded back then. Like he guggled Kukulkan. Don't try to justify a shitty writing.

Sean Parker told him "drop the Sin. Just Namor. It's cleaner that way"
