Now that would’ve been FINE, but they had to go and muck it up by adding a “Meow” next to T’Challa’s head. It was at that moment that it seemed like we were in for a “Borat” level of representation for this character. Other characters would be cracking cringe worthy jokes about his suit and the idea of this fresh new BLACK Hero would become a parody of itself.
