Man. That opinion really, really, really sucks.

I just find it really hard to believe you're genuinely committed to Lyndon Johnson's legacy. I just don't really believe you. Because why would you be that committed to defending his legacy that you would be actively spiteful about it several years after whatever news story came out, and also because Lyndon Johnson actually did suck. I didn't even see Wrinkle In Time, it doesn't look great, but this is a real bad reason to be spiteful and shitty about it.

Fuck Lyndon Johnson.

Yeah - I haven't seen Selma so I don't know about this specific portrayal of him, and I won't say he did nothing good, but LBJ was a creep.

Also Ava Duverny didn't even write Selma.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah fuck the guy who helped pass the Civil Rights act.

[(Anonymous)]

*hard eye - roll* Try harder troll.

[(Anonymous)]

Wait, a bomb? I haven't paid that much attention, but it seems to be doing okay...?

[feotakahari]

It’s one of those movies where the budget was so stupidly bloated, it needed to be a smash hit to be a success at all.

[(Anonymous)]

It's gotten really bad reviews from critics and the audience. Most people who saw it just didn't like it.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, it's making decent money, but not to what box office expectations were supposed to be. Also reviews were mixed for the film.

And that's not even taking into account Black Panther's wild success eating in to what the movie might have made otherwise.

[(Anonymous)]

This has to be a troll.

[(Anonymous)]

I need to hear more about how Lyndon Johnson was wronged before I accept this as a non-troll secret, OP.

[(Anonymous)]

*blink*

[lovedforaday]

What a bizarre secret. I've seen, er, certain folks cheering that A Wrinkle in Time flopped because Duvernay is the "real racist" or book fans being disappointed in how the movie turned out, but the LBJ stan reason is the dumbest reason I've seen so far seen.

[(Anonymous)]

Given the specific dynamics of the original LBJ Selma controversy, and assuming that this is a real secret (which it probably isn't), I would suspect that it wasn't unrelated to the "real racist" argument.

[greghousesgf]

(waves) disappointed fan of the book here.

[cbrachyrhynchos]

I'd buy this argument a bit more if the entire genre didn't routinely take liberties with characters and conflicts for the sake of enhancing drama. Paul Webb wasn't the worst offender in Hollywood history writing that script.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't see Selma, but I'm going to assume OP is mad she didn't portray Johnson as swearing or flashing his dick enough.

[(Anonymous)]

Best comment in the thread everyone else can go home now

[wannabe_influential]

You're happy her film failed because she trash talked a dead president?

[(Anonymous)]

Yes.

[(Anonymous)]

OP, you've shown your hand in this thread. You're a racist, misogynistic piece of trash. No wonder you like LBJ so much. Keep sucking his dead dick, he wasn't a good person just because he did one majorly good thing.

[(Anonymous)]

What did they say that was racist OR misogynistic??

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know anything about what you just said, but I saw A Wrinkle in Time and was baffled that it included an intro from this director. Like, she really wanted you to know that she was the director. What kind of theatrical release needs a director intro? wtf

[(Anonymous)]

She has a huge ego.

And Another Thing

[(Anonymous)]

how DARE you hope that a New Gods adaptation fails

the New Gods are awesome and I hope to hell that she or anyone else is able to pull that shit off
