Kinda like the butchering of the novel a wrinkle in time. The movie bombed
They kept it in theaters for an eternity so it would technically gross 100 million though.
The Avatar sales model
How much did Avatar 2 make in the end?
It's still in theaters.
That I did t know. But that movie taught me what a hack Ava Duvernay was so I bought the book and read it
I read L'Engle when I was a kid and remembered liking her.
I just read through Wrinkle in Time, Wind in the Door, and Swiftly Tilting Planet again ...
L'Engle is kind of a hack herself. They aren't necessarily bad books, but her whole schtick is "don't know really what's happening, don't have any clear goal of what needs to be accomplished or how to accomplish it, the main characters never really do anything on their own because secondary characters just constantly appear to tell them what to do right when they need to do it ... but at the end everything is somehow ok."
Well at least Wrinkle in time was her story. Duvernay can’t do anything without some race narrative. I didn’t know there were more books in the series. I do appreciate the Christian symbolism but nobody does that better than Lewis
