Black Panther: 20 WTF Moments

1. No Soul Stone?!

Given that Infinity War is just around the corner, the strangest thing about Black Panther is that it didn't reveal that the missing Soul Stone was in Wakanda.

When Thor: Ragnarok failed to address the missing stone, it was assumed that Wakanda would hold the answer - and the mysterious power of Vibranium and the Heart Shaped Herb could have provided the perfect opportunity to use the stone to explain an established magical element in the MCU. That would have followed the trend of other stones being revealed as the source of magical artefacts/powers and it would have been an easy solution.

For now, we'll have to wait and see what plans the Russos have to bring the Soul Stone in. There's actually no saying it's not in Wakanda, but it would have been nice for a tease, considering how much Infinity War is already going to have to fit in.
