I wish they would say why they’re “not thrilled”. Barbie, as a franchise, has a history of animated movies long before the live-action was a thing. I’m more surprised its taken this long, and hasn’t been a flood of “We’re redoing Barbie and the Three Musketeers with slightly better animation!” while the iron was hot.
There has been, Netflix have done a handful of different Barbie series with multiple seasons over the last decade. Doesn’t seem like the next one is substantially changing direction resultant from the film. Feels like the premise for this article was to just reaction-bait its stars.
Ah, so that’s where they went. Makes sense. Probably a better market than the old “Direct-to-Video” releases they did.
They should just get with Larian and do a Barbie RPG instead
As expected
Haven’t there been like 200 Barbie movies already? What’s the big deal?
Yeah gosh I remember these movies being on all the time as a child because my sister loved them. I still find myself quoting “lefting, leftaroo” on a pretty regular basis.
@[email protected] thoughts?
Not thrilled. (Reportedly)
It’s fun when the talent think they own a piece of intellectual and trademarked property
Haha, exactly. Surprised it isn’t a live action ‘Barbie 2: Return to Kenland’ because marketing says a male lead polls better.
Well of course not, they want as many of the sequel dollars as they can possibly get. What, they’re to share the hype with filthy animators?!
