Thank every god in existence she turned it down.

BP is the greatest MCU film of all time and one of the best superhero films of all time.
Ryan Coogler and team did a fantastic job
the regret is palpable

NO
"The movie’s main character, Meg Murray, is described in the novel as a redheaded girl, but DuVernay cast African-American actress Storm Reid. DuVernay’s Meg is supposed to be biracial, with a white father (played by “Star Trek” actor Chris Pine) and a black mother (played by “Black Mirror" actress Gugu Mbatha-Raw).

DuVernay, who directed the civil rights film "Selma," told the New York Times she selected Australian actor Levi Miller to play Meg’s friend “because that was so powerful, to show a white boy following a black girl” throughout the movie.

It doesn’t help that “A Wrinkle in Time” must compete with “Black Panther,” which in addition to being acclaimed for featuring an overwhelmingly black cast has also gotten stellar reviews just for being a great movie."

Yeah, glad that shyt will bomb. fukk her and fukk this movie. If she directed BP, Shuri would’ve been making out with Ross. Y’all nikkas need to STOP propping up anointing bw who does not have your best intestest.

but this movie portrays Black folks in a positive light,
directed by a Black woman,
has other Black creatives eating off of it,
magical Black nikkas, and it's Disney too.

I just don’t think fantasy and action are her thing. Selma and the 13th were good :manny:

sure. Black creatives are displaying their talents. What's negative?
abundant bedwenching,
absence of black fathers perpetuating the stereotype of black children being fatherless.
a outspoken critic of affirmative action in a lead role.
black girl with two black parents in real life having to pretend to be half white because.....
Wakanda forever though amirite?
