【Lina Romay】
A Wrinkle in Timereleased a new poster,Lina Romay but not everybody's happy about it.
The poster depicts a stunning pastel collage of scenes over Storm Reid's hair, with Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling, and Chris Pine peeking out between glowing lines.
Apparently, it's too feminine to ever be appealing to boys.
"This is a GREAT poster," YouTuber Grace Randolph tweeted, "But don't they want little boys to see this too... ?"

Little boys couldn't possibly want to see a movie if the poster is pink and features a girl, right?
Twitter users quickly responded to Randolph's tweet with ridicule.
"The fallacy that having a girl on the poster somehow excludes boys is inherently harmful," wrote @kelleybarnhill. She added that her daughters wanted to see Thor, and that her son still wanted to see A Wrinkle in Time.

"If we keep teaching boys they have to be centered they will never learn to listen to anyone else's stories," @Karnythia added.

Author John Scalzi said that he wanted to see A Wrinkle in Timewhen he was a little boy. "The book spoke to me and was foundational to my becoming a science fiction writer," he tweeted, "This poster would have thrilled me as a 10-year-old, not kept me away."

As some people pointed out, movie posters that featured mostly boys — surprise! — still appealed to young girls.
Like Harry Potter:

Going by Randolph's logic, WALL-E wouldn't have appealed to girls or boys. What human being would want to see a movie that doesn't even have humans on the poster?

No girl would want to see Magic Mike, considering its poster features only conventionally attractive, shirtless men.

Olivia A. Cole got it best:

This just goes to show how ridiculous gendered stereotypes are — people will still want to see a movie, regardless of how many girls & boys there are on the poster. Especially if it's good.
