I’m not sure I’m interested in the movie, the stars are OK, I do like the director’s work, but that is hands down the best teaser trailer ever!

Greta Gerwig is a terrific director. I was baffled when she signed onto this, but it’s clear now that she took the job because she wanted to Do Something.

I never thought I’d say this, but I’m 100% interested in this movie now.

yeah i dont know if ive seen her work but I know she usually does serious stuff so maybe there’s a bit of a message that might be in the plot that and they didn’t just want a live-action version of the barbie animated movies …(there’s like 40 of them … )

I saw the preview Dolby screening last night, I enjoyed it a lot! Really funny and very subversive and clever humor.

Strangely enough, that often seems to happen when a movie is being released. I can’t figure out if it’s just a series of coincidences or there’s something behind it. 🤔

And if you search for Barbie on Google the page turns pink.

Mine doesn’t. 🙁 Although a bunch of sparkly pink things went by.

One of the reviews I read said that there is so much pink in the movie that it is “like being waterboarded with Pepto Bismol.” Nice turn of phrase there.

I’m looking forward to both Barbie and Oppenheimer (or “Barbenheimer” as I’ve heard the hype for both movies mashed together).

“_Barbie_’s release in theaters this weekend caps one of the most extensive and impressive extensive marketing campaigns in recent memory. Put another way: rarely does a film turn into a cultural touchstone before it opens in cinemas. Warner Bros.’ _Barbie_ , which brings to life the world’s most famous fashion doll, is on the short list of exceptions.”

That.Is.Awesome.

I didn’t have any interest when I first heard about this movie, but now I really want to see it. Especially, since Mrs. Matt Gaetz panned it.

ETA: It starts with the sparkles, then, the page background turns a pale pink.

Weird. I would have guessed that young girls’ interest in Barbie died out last century.

Oppenheimer is the $50 million+ movie.

I could have sworn that his lack of genitalia was called the “Ken smoothie”, and I was considering a light hearted post. Then I looked up “Ken smoothie”, and there are zero entries!
