Black Panther: Wakanda Forever: 23 WTF Moments

MCU movies certainly love nodding towards the Disney content machine, as results in one of Wakanda Forever's low-key most cringe-worthy moments.

After Shuri and Riri wake up in Talokan, Shuri is offered a ceremonial gown said to be worn by all princesses in the nation.

Before Shuri can say anything, though, Riri insists she refuse, drawing comparisons to other embattled women offered ceremonial garb, namely Princess Leia in Star Wars, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, and "that white chick from Indiana Jones."

It's a bit jarring that Riri only mentions three films made or owned by Disney, which makes it hard not to view the gag through a bit of a cynical lens. Even a joke apparently has to be concerned with reinforcing Disney's content library for the audience.

Would it have killed them to include a non-Disney movie among the bunch, just to make it seem a bit less tacky?
