Disney: Hey do you want to make this 100 million dollar movie? Its based on a popular book. A Wrinkle in Time:smugdraper:

Ava: I never heard or read this book and google search says its UN FILMABLE :patrice:



Disney: Well its got a little girl as the lead and she saves the world. :manny:

Ava: Can she be black? :lupe:

Disney: Lets call it 50/50 and make her bi racial :youngsabo:

Ava:: Deal! :krs:

I wonder how much flack Jennifer Lee is going to get or if this will affect her career. She wrote the film and so far I'm seeing just as much, if not more, criticism for the script as I am seeing for the direction.

Also why must the lead be biracial and not a likttle black girl

Ava did some questionable casting choices with this which leaves me :mindblown: with all these nerds saying this is just as important as BP for black films


It would have been nice to see black boys asking a black girl what to do Ava :francis:

I mean her choices for her movie is ok....it just doesn't match up with people trying to lump this in with Black Panther.

I appreciate her support of the film tho.

I get she is passionate about it but the quote from that tweet is :francis: status.

Could have did another indie, a Disney fairytale or Rocketeer. Nope had to pick this shyt. :snoop:
