TangledThorns Posted December 16, 2022 Posted December 16, 2022 Will kids go see it or is it more for adults? I'm thinking the latter. Quote

Dynaman Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 I doubt the movie will be any good but whoever came up with that trailer deserves an Oscar. Quote

Given the talent in front of, and behind, the camera, this thing has a lot more promise than it has any right to. Quote

Roy Focker Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 I bet you the premise is the same as The Lego Movie. It is just some little rich girl playing with all her Barbies. Rich Mommy and Rich Daddy buy her every Barbie because they think you show love by buying people stuff. Lesson they learn is you can't buy love. You show it by playing Barbie with your child. Don't think it will happen but. I want there to be nude scenes of Ken and Barbie. With smooth featureless crotches like the dolls. Quote

Mog Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) They would wind up scissoring, Barbie somehow becomes impregnated, and then Ken suddenly ghosts her. Barbie goes through all seven stages of grief (Fat Barbie, Denial Barbie, Angry Barbie, etc.) and then establishes her empire (real estate, cars, clothing lines, billions upon billions of accessories).

Roy Focker Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Without text indicting this is a "Fan trailer" the above post is clickbait spam. This post goes out to everyone. Don't randomly share pictures, videos or links without at least once sentence about it. Quote
68whiskey Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 If this is a real movie with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling then they catered to both male and female audience well. Quote

Dynaman Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 OK, they got me. That looks like it could be good. Quote
TangledThorns Posted July 10, 2023 Posted July 10, 2023 LOL, this could be the greatest movie/toy tie-in since the LEGO movie!! Quote
derex3592 Posted July 12, 2023 Posted July 12, 2023 This is gonna be a GREAT wife date night movie! Quote
mechaninac Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 Uhm... Wow! Spoiler Spoiler A F-inist tilt was always expected with a brand like Barbie, and that'd be perfectly fine if done with subtlety, light-hearted humor and cleverness; but holy scat, they've pulled off an epic bait and switch and delivered a full-on spiteful propaganda manifesto that one would need to be fully indoctrinated or willfully blind not to notice.

I haven't seen it but this feels like a review from someone who isn't in on the joke or doesn't get that the whole thing is a joke. Of course Barbie needs to be the center of the universe and Ken just her arm candy... Quote

But, delivered a film with endless adult context layered on a existential crises where the bottom line is to hate men and hate being in relationships. I don't think it's a joke. That's aside the uncomfortable lines that responsible parents don't want to explain to their kids. My biggest surprise is how did Mattel ever sign on this? Edited July 22, 2023 by Raikkonen Quote
Big s Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 The movie looks bad, but even if it was good I don’t think I’d bother with it. I kinda doubt there will be too many that are not little girls wanting to see this, and then ignorant parents finding out it’s not as much of a kids thing Quote
Duke Togo Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 Going to see Barbie Monday morning. I have the day off. Quote

I didn't get the impression this was a family movie so maybe that's on me. I never thought for a second a license about a girl who can do everything with a boy who is only attractive would end up being anything but.. ya know... That. If it wasn't, people would complain for other reasons. Maybe it's heavy handed but it's a comedy right? I guess that's what I want to know, is it funny? If it's not funny, then it's an easy pass. I don't mind if the joke is on me if I can still laugh at it. Edited July 22, 2023 by jenius Quote

It's from a toy line for young girls... obviously the market was always going to be for daughters along with their parents, and the generations of women that grew with Barbie, that by the trailers twinkled a humour saying it's ok to bring the husbands, fathers and boyfriends to be enjoyed together. Yes, it has it's funny moments, but towards the end it's all about telling how girls don't need relationships. I don't know how the joke could be on you or anyone in this case?

derex3592 Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 I'm gonna have to HARD PASS on this garbage now that I've read some reviews. 🤮🤮🤮 Quote
Duke Togo Posted July 24, 2023 Posted July 24, 2023 Had a lot of fun with this movie. Lost me a bit in the middle, but the third act really brought me back in a big way. Quote
