First, in the 21st century, why does Hollywood still have to resort to making up fictitious African countries like Zumunda or Wakanda? Why not make up fictitious American states like Texaseepi? Second, why does Hollywood believe that by filling a film with black actors gives them a right to culturally appropriate and commercialize REAL African cultures? It was beautiful that the set designers or whomever it was decided to use derivative African artwork (i.e. the Benin bronzes) but having Eddie Murphy wear an Ethiopian cross around his neck the entire film (and the "Zumundian" crest/McDonald's with Amharic/Ethiopian script in gibberish) was crossing a line. Wesley Snipes (who actually lived in South Africa) was the ONLY American actor that came off remotely African. And it wasn't at all surprising Trevor Noah took the opportunity to show exactly what a sell-out he really is by participating in this mess.
