Josh asking the big questions

 

Gotta wonder if people are confused if the social media embargo was still in effect or not.  Clearly it's not, but I wonder if wires got crossed somewhere.  Really shouldn't have to be hunting for reactions like this.

A Wrinkle in Time has a much lower budget then Tomorrowland. It shouldn't do as bad.

Critics are not confused. They are just too afraid to say anything negative.

[Ryan Reynolds]

people not impressed by the visionary director?

[Porthos]

Not to channel @Telehilation but I think one really can't read too much into the relative lack of reaction on Twitter. Could be all sorts of reasons that don't point to the actual quality of the movie.

 

We'll know soon enough how it plays.  Doesn't do anyone much good to speculate with incomplete information.

[Zakiyyah6]

I'll speculate if I want to. Disney movies are not immune to speculation. If other films can be speculated on then so can Disney movies.

I bet they won't be so afraid if this was a Disney Johnny Depp movie.....

They'd jump at the chance to trash it if it were and I wouldn't blame them. 

[MrGlass2]

Critics are unanimous: it is a movie.

Yeah seems like Deep's Disney films are the only Disney films that critics trash these days. So yeah, this film could test the so called Disney bias that has been labelled against critics.

I don't believe in that conspiracy but this isn't a good look for the critics. The longer they stay quiet the more the conspiracy will be fueled.

I like how the reactions I've seen so far have been "Well...Storm and Chris are great."

[UNDERDOG]

 

Im starting to think they're just afraid to talk shit about Duvernay.

Lmaoooo the fear of appearing racist and/or misogynistic

Sounds like #WrinkleInTime is Disney's #Watchmen.

This doesn't sound like a slamdunk but it sounds like some people are straining to make it one. I'm sure Pine and Storm are great cause they look good in ho-hum previews too.

I think that's it more than the Disney thing.  Critics are easier on filmmakers they like.

[Hades]

Is this how they will act if Chris Nolan or the MCU, Disney Star Wars ever releases a dud? Going to be awkward for them....

Apparently some uncertainty about the embargo also ?
