Good decision completing the Barbenheimer marathon with Barbie. Way better than I expected.
Also, to the phlemmy that asked the other day if it was going to have commentaries on consumerism and all that: Yes, it does.
I wasn't really expecting Barbie to be that way. I thought Gerwig/Baumbach sold themselves out with this franchise, but they turned 180. Margot Robbie? Damn, after a decade, still a bomb.
They pretty much showed that Barbie was hated by everyone, particularly women for setting feminism back haha. Di ko inexpect that Mattel was going to allow that.
Tapos dami pa mga hamfisted digs on men... na totoo naman, lmao.
Edit: TIL that Matchbox 20's Push was misogynistic. Ngayon lang nag-click sa akin as an adult. Chorus lang kasi alam ko.
The production design? It gave me shivers, lol.
Awww... Baka manood na ko. Kaso when ko pde isingit ito? 😮💨
