The Marxist in me is still pretty cynical about packaging a feminist message into a Barbie doll movie but it's not like I was ever a very good Marxist

I'm sure it's difficult. You've got fourth wave these days and I think that's just third wave feminism with ska music?

This is more" woke" nonsense from the Woke Brigade with, women and their oppressment of the historically malined White Male. Fellas, when i think about Margo Robby's cruel spiked High heeled shoe stomping ddown upon the stoic, muscular frame of the white man, I get hot under the Collar with rage. Just that shoe on his face and body which, he endures in silent endurement.

Vegetable posted:of course the once-arthouse filmmakers making their first big budget blockbuster project that’s also a brand marketing vehicle evangelizing individualist self-actualization are the ones saying “why aren’t bad feminists okay i think watching movies through this transformative lens is a profoundly debilitating method of consumption and you absolutely would be happier reading a book instead

temple posted:I won't be seeing barbie. for my health Oh hey! That's that same guy youtube will never stop recommending you if you ever watch a video with swords in it. The one who's got strong views on boob armor and wrote a fantasy book about a heroic rapist. I guess he didn't like this movie for some reason.

Just watched this and it loving owned. Can't emphasize enough just how utterly insane it all is. And the extended Ken musical battle scene will remain with me forever.

Barbie is a fantasy film about elevating one gender and suppressing the other. Why would you be entertained by that? Sounds like a nightmare. -100% sincere review

I been listening to the rewatchables from bill simmons. They always do a Roger Ebert thing, but get real mad when Ebert does a double take. That is the entire point of the series you are doing Bill.

The whole movie is one long set up for one joke that lands hilariously. Movie was fantastic absolutely hysterical at times. Laughed the whole time and it was great. Real feel good great movie.
