Barbie (Greta Gerwig, July 21, 2023) Movie • Page 19

it was definitely annoying to me

 

Seeing this in a few hours and most of the seats were sold when I went to buy tickets, which is rare for a Tuesday afternoon. This movie might make a billion.

 

What a chad (and this is coming a few days after loosely praising/giving a neutral take on Sound of Freedom)

 

king

 

Honestly the perfect song for that, glad he signed off.

 

I'm pretty ambivalent towards the original Butterfly but the one on the Barbie soundtrack is actually kinda a banger ngl

 

Lena Dunham?? Why?

 

i thought her catherine called birdy adaptation was alright

 

If “Greta Gerwig’s Barbie” hits so hard, “Lena Dunham’s Polly Pocket” feels like a pretty obvious pitch to try and recreate that, lol. Like, an AI could come up with it.

 

alright whos making Betty Spaghetti

 

It just feels like taking 5 steps backwards. Lena is like 1/8th as talented as Greta.

 

Yea, I was like, I like Lily Collins. Lena? Sigh.

 

seeing this a second time tonight.

 

needs to be Italian so Sofia Coppola

 

We're like six degrees of separation from a Mighty Max revival and I want it so bad.

 

I would watch Mighty Max at like 6am when I was a kid. I don’t remember much, but I recall liking it a good bit.

 

I keep laughing when I think of Will Ferrell being spooked by Midge lol. That reaction had me rolling.

 

Lena sucks. Negative hype compared to Barbie IMO

 

The sequel to this will have a sideplot about Margot Barbie falling in love in the real world and will be directed by Mia Hansen-Løve

 

Oh I'm not a Lena fan, lol. I agree that it's significantly less appealing. I just think, from a Hollywood perspective, the "why" is pretty obvious. It's a very cynical, like, "let's reverse engineer and recreate this hit a second time, with [what seems like] the same basic formula!"

 

Probably not? That is such a dumb tweet based on the info at hand. Twitter is the worst lol
