Display wordpress posts in ascending order

[admin]

I am trying to display wordpress posts in ascending instead of descending order.

The code I am using in my template is below

<?php 

                    $temp = $wp_query;
                    $wp_query = null;
                    $wp_query = new WP_Query();
                    $wp_query->query('showposts=24&post_type=movie&orderby=ASC' . '&paged=' . $paged);

                    while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post();

                 ?>

however this is not working.

Does anyone know why?

Any help would be great
