Actress Has a Message for "White Dude" Movie Reviewers, and It's Not Pretty
Actress Brie Larson, who is set to make her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut next year as Captain Marvel, has proven once again that the progressive poison floating around Hollywood has infected the vast majority of professionals working in the field.
Larson can’t seem to grasp the fact that movies are an art form that manages to bypass all of the differences between us as human beings through storytelling, helping us to connect with each other through our shared humanity, erasing those distinctions that often divide us.
Yet, because of liberalism and the brain eating ideology that makes up that diabolical system of belief, Larson and people like her can’t see what’s right in front of their faces.
The actress recently stated that she wants fewer “white dudes” reviewing movies.
This lack of consistency in the application of liberal principles concerning tolerance is staggering.
It seems that actress Brie Larson (“The Room”) has a difficult time grasping that reality. In fact, she thinks “white dudes” don’t understand certain films and thinks they marginalize bona fide pieces of garbage like Ava DuVernay’s social justice swansong to new age religion – “A Wrinkle In Time” – merely because they are both white and male.
Accepting the Crystal Award for Excellence in Film at the Women In Film Crystal + Lucy Awards on Wednesday, Larson said more women and people of color should be allowed into screenings.

“Am I saying that I hate white dudes? No, I’m not,” she said. “But what I am saying is if you make a movie that is a love letter to a woman of color, there is an insanely low chance that a woman of color will have a chance to see your movie and review your movie… It really sucks that reviews matter, but reviews matter.”

“I don’t need a white dude to tell me what didn’t work for him in ‘A Wrinkle In Time.’ It wasn’t made for him,” she said to a round of applause. “I want to know what that film meant to women of color, to biracial women, to teen women of color, to teens that are biracial. And, for the third time, I don’t hate white dudes. These are just facts. These are not my feelings.”
It’s mind-blowing that Larson thinks the reason this film adaptation wasn’t successful is because of white guys giving it bad reviews. This is about as stupid as it gets, but then again, the vast majority of the folks working in Hollywood aren’t known for their high level of intelligence.
The reason “A Wrinkle in Time” did so poorly was because they stripped the movie of its Christian themes, changing it into a neutral tale that promoted paganism and humanism. Everything that made the story special was removed.
People didn’t like it because it was dull, lifeless, and did not capture the spirit of the book.
Marvel’s “Black Panther” and the smashing success it earned both critically and at the box office is proof positive the world enjoys black led entertainment. The truth is, “A Wrinkle in Time” was just a bad movie.
Time to move on.
