Do kids still read this book? I read it when I was in 3rd or 4th grade and loved it, but I have not seen it anywhere since. I am not sure it will work for the target audience if none of them are familiar with it.

I loved the book as a kid. Can’t say I remember much of what it was about, though...

I will see it on my tv at some point.

It is an awesome book and I've read it with my students numerous times. However, it is the type of book that will not translate well into a movie.

I think I tried reading it when I was too young to really understand what was going on. I should probably go back and re-read it now.

You're probably right. Probably about the same as Ender's Game. I read Wrinkle when I was a child and again as an adult. Never read Ender's Game until I was an adult and not long after that the movie came out. It wasn't really bad but nowhere as good as the book.

Hopefully they do a better job adapting this to the big screen. I didn't like how they did Ender's Game

I was wondering why we were getting it back in theaters this week at the restaurant/movie theater I’m a manager at. Disney probably wants to try and squeeze some more money from it before Deadpool kills everything next week.

Knew from the beginning it would play better if Oprah showed her tits.

I mean, who wouldn't want to see a PG-rated Sci-fi movie starring Oprah Winfrey and Reese effing Witherspoon, about a little girl looking for her space-exploring Dad??


Shocked I tell ya.
