Oprah’s PISSED As Movie FLOPS, #BLM Director Blames ‘Christians & White People’..

Oprah Winfrey latest movie “A Wrinkle In Time” just premiered, and it’s officially been labeled a flop.

The award-winning book that the movie is based on is a science fiction fantasy about Christianity’s concept of good versus evil, but Winfrey and the Black Lives Matter director Ava DuVernay erased Christianity, making it New Age and politically correct.

You’ll be shocked how “Christians and white people” are now blamed for its horrendous reviews. Oprah Winfrey starring in “A Wrinkle In Time” (left), a stock image of moviegoers (right).

Madeleine L’Engle’s 1962 award-winning book “A Wrinkle In Time” is known for its Christian themes, as well as being a sci-fi fantasy about a young girl named Meg whose scientist father gets trapped in another dimension by his own governmental experiment. Well, Oprah and her new favorite director, Ava DuVernay, took the novel and transformed it into a hot mess of a movie.

The movie is about racial diversity and social justice, and the critics say it “sucks.” The Federalist reports, “Critics are largely panning ‘A Wrinkle In Time,’ and Director Ava DuVernay is not taking it well. According to her Twitter feed, white journalists of either gender simply don’t understand her vision for the movie.”

It's true that Madeleine L'Engle was a liberal Episcopalian who believed in universal salvation, and thus somewhat outre by CWA standards. She was criticized by them for her broadly ecumenical, almost pan-spiritual approach.

On the other hand, she was explicitly, devotionally, bottom-to-top Christian in her imagination, her symbolic framework and her moral code, and thus scorned by secularist and leftist critics.

Despite some displeased critics on both sides, she certainly triumphed with her audience, several generations of children and young adults in the mid-to-late-20th century. She writes beautifully. People literally do pass her books on from generation to generation.

They think they do, though. It compels them to join conservative boards and forums to keep all the poor benighted wingers on the plantation.

I never watched her for free on tv, why the heck would I part with money to see her? I’ve never watched Ellen either - just the thought of her “habits” keeps me from tuning in.

Christian movies based on the Word are doing fantastic. This one is based on Oprah moral relativism so not so much.

The Progs I’ve been unfortunate enough to come in contact with have this mistaken belief that by “Interacting” with Conservatives, they’re doing their master Lucifer’s will in spreading the word and trying to show that the dark side isn’t all that bad. I get their knickers in a knot when I simply tell them that they’re soul-less automatons without the ability to think or reason and are merely birch wood dummies spitting out the chapter and verse of Satan’s bible.

Hattie McDaniel was actually a good person. ......... And so was Butterfly Mc Queen, she only played dummy parts, but she was far from it.

As a White Christian male, head of a White Christian household, my family and I will continue our boycott of all things Disney in response to the racist, bigoted comments of this “director.”

Yeah, and the Ghostbusters reboot flopped because of "Trump supporters" per the director of that inherently bad idea. Thanks Beave Meister.

A pretty good percentage of the nation's black people are Christian.Add them to the approx 70% of the population who are white and you understand why nobody wanted to see it.

Poor Oprah....down to her last $10 billion.

So Orca thinks she just might run for president. Her anti-white, anti-elderly racism lays the path for her "democrat" ticket:

Oprah: Racism will end when all the old white people die - "There are still generations of people, older people, and they just have to die!"

And if you don't think that old white people should die... then you're a racist. Because what could be more racist than planning a post-racial utopia that depends on people of a certain race dying. “There are still generations of people, older people and they just have to die!"
