"A Wrinkle in TIme" directed by Ava DuVernay

[MR. Conclusion]

And either Nakia or Shuri would've been bedwenching.

Wakanda would've definitely be a "mixed" culture.


Now that I think of it..... I think she turned down the movie because it was TOO black. She probably didn't have faith in the story or the direction and decided to pass on it.

BP is as black as it gets. According to her it wasn't a match to her vision of it.

She definitely would have wenched it up.

Trailer was utter garbage to me... I saw it and STILL didn't understand what the fukk the story was about...

I'm just glad she didn't do black panther. Turning down an important marvel movie shows a lack of good judgement.

I dont know about that, at the time it felt like she turned it down because the studio also wanted to kind of restrict

They also learned a little bit and gave Coogler some freedom, though tbh Black Panther does have all constructs of a regular Marvel film too

I have a new found respect for Ava after watching this interview. And I'm willing to admit it put my foot in my mouth in this thread.



If you don't want to watch.

1. She says the movie was marketed towards kids and families with kids. Nothing more, nothing less.

2. She said she turned down black panther because she felt it should be directed by a black man. She wanted to do a movie about a black woman. Which is true.

3. She made the father white because she didn't want to have another movie portrayal of an absentee black father. So she made him white.


I will never see this movie because it wasn't made for me.

I would also date her as well

I ain’t never thought Ava was on some fukk shyt like some of y’all was posting.

I just wished she had picked a different project besides this.

Y’all was going overboard with the wench shyt

Double post but

She would've aged Shuri and that 2nd post credit scene would've had her kissing Bucky.

Box office Mojo saying $35M

This is a Lone Ranger type flop.

to those that have read the books or seen the movie, was the fathers absence due to him abandoning his family or some other shyt?

EDIT: reading the wiki entry on the book, the father disappearance has nothing to do with "absentee father" bullshyt. its a plot of the story. and the daughter has to rescue him. fukk outta here

This is a movie for little girls based on a book for little girls...right?
