    You should give it a spin. I was nothing like I imagined, and I had few preconceptions. Wife and I went, her first American movie theater experience!

    As a man, I felt Ken. I got where the guys were coming from. Sometimes I wanted to cheer, “Fuck yeah that’s what it’s like being a man!”

    My wife teared up during America Ferrara’s famous rant. Hell, I felt that. I won’t link it. You gotta see it in context, but it works on it’s own.

    It’s goofy as fuck, in case I’m making it sound overly dramatic. But it sure puts a screwdriver into American sexual roles and twists.

    Anyway, it was better than it had any right to be. I did not expect what I saw and came away with.

      I’ve been sort of interested in seeing it. I was very interested in Oppenheimer when it first came out (since I’m a science nerd), but after seeing some clips from it, I decided I hated it and lost interest in watching the whole movie. Barbie has a good chance of being better/

        Oh, well if you saw some clips and decided you hated those…

        If you want to watch it then watch it. It’s not some groundbreaking movie experience like everyone says it is. It’s just a movie for kids and adults about Barbie of all things. It’s better than people thought it would be, but it’s not like it should’ve swept the Oscars or anything, and people know that.

          They said they saw clips of Oppenheimer and then decided not to see that movie, and that Barbie has a good chance of being better.
