I saw about 3 minutes of this where it's teaching girls to try to provoke men into a jealous rage. I had to turn it off because I can't help but think of how many are going to try this irl and get murdered.

To be fair, the jealous rage resolves in a musical number, a very silly fight and the Kens more resolved to work together.

The mistake with Barbie is to take any of it seriously. I'm not surprised that there are foids only now saying they hated it. I doubt they did at the time, but also the film had to satisfy at least a half dozen different masters, including different waves of feminism that hate each other. There's something to piss off everyone in the film, it's just different for each group of people. And Lipstick Alley types are the sort to have one moment in something go against their morality and so the whole thing is shit.

All good points. I saw barbie and Oppenheimer the same day and liked them both. Barbie was more goofy and self-aware than most people give it credit for. All the messaging in it was tied to the plot of the movie too, not like how Disney sneaks unrelated messaging into Marvel/Pixar/Indiana Jones for the sake of idpol.

Complaining about femmy messaging in Barbie is like complaining about Neils Bohr being a character in Oppenheimer.

Yes, and the messaging is intentionally goofy and maybe less intentionally actively undercuts itself.

I would have removed the thinly veiled Chevy advertisement. All of this is footage from the film, not a separate ad.

I have a feeling that the script got twisted by executive additions. The majority of it is coherent and decent apart from a few on-the-nose moments that go against the overall message

I guess when you don't listen to a sermon once a week, you start looking for sermons elsewhere :marseyconfused:

It really felt like 3 half-finished scripts hacked together.

Yeah my dogs intuitively understand trying to make someone jealous. I'm sure women will figure it out on their own.

The real message of the barbie movie is "women will subvert and destroy civilisation unless men trust no thot"
