Greta Gerwig’s movie based on the world’s most iconic fashion doll keeps dancing past one record after another.
My parents have seen this movie three times, I’ve seen it twice, might go again lol. I’m in a deficit of movies marketed toward women that dont revolve around romance, I can only watch legally blonde so many times (who am I kidding, I will watch it a dozen more times at least)
I can only assume that my one downvote is from someone who vehemently opposes the notion that anyone could get tired of seeing legally blonde
It felt odd, marketed as a female movie, It had a female lead, women that talk to other women, but half way through I commented to my partner that this feels like a movie about Ken.
My only take away as a dirty male is I can t wait to see it again for Ken, but when it’s streaming.
I’ve seen this opinion from a lot of men, about 80% of the top comments on the Reddit mega thread were about how Ken “made the movie”. I’ve talked to a lot women about this, and every one of them has essentially said “of course they think it’s about the man”. It’s a bit frustrating, honestly, to see this opinion everywhere. I do not see how he could be seen as the focus of the movie. I loved Ken of course, but you missed a big point of the movie if your main takeaway is how great Ken was.
Badly worded, my main take away to see it again, I do see past Ken. And like you say, if you’re witnessing people saying that Ken made the movie then that’s the exact problem I’m conveying.
Put a batsuit on her in the sequel and the ticket sales will double.
I’m at the theaters to see this right now and the theater is packed, never seen a movie that was this packed outside of opening day
If the movie is still making $6 million on a Tuesday, this movie is going break a lot more records.

I enjoyed it, but I’m not paying that ticket price again.

I can’t remember how many years it’s been since I went to a movie theater before going to Barbie. That’s not a value for me.

The movie is awesome, but it gets me down thinking about how many shitty toy “but with grown-up humour” movies we’re going to get after this, just because now every studio in the world is going to join the bandwagon.

Thanks for sharing!
White People trash will always do good at the movies, no one wants to see people of color star in anything these days
So much for Black Lives Matter

This is so hilariously wrong that it’s hard for me to take this seriously. I don’t know of a recent movie that bombed that didn’t have a predominantly white cast.
As a non-white, an outsider and onlooker on the American sociopolitical scenery, I can attest that I also regard the non-white people as perceptually racist, and sometimes even worst. It’s been many occasions that I observed where they don’t say a word regarding all-non-white-casts movies. But when people made all-white movies (or if none of them won any awards), they will throw tantrums for being left out. Quite typical scenarios.
