This video talks about Mattel planning to launch Barbie and other toy movies since at least 2009 but A LOT of other people were involved with it, besides Amy Schumer before Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig got involved.

Forgetting Amy Schumer, do you think the Barbie movie could have worked in a prior cultural climate? Why is now such the right time? I wonder if there will be a Barbie franchise or if Greta is too high brow for that…

I think it will the major winner at the Razzie Awards but a new cult movie for the gays.

It's definitely going to be a love it or hate it situation. Greta Gerwig is a good director though

I expect the movie to be much darker and complex than the promo so far leads us to believe... didn't Ryan Gosling say it's one of the best scrips he's ever read?

i think the world now more than ever needs the movies that lean towards ‘i didn’t know i needed this nonsense’

its the reason why Coca-cola Bear and Megan rocked the zeitgeist. We need camp and baby this is camp

I agree….Greta is such a great writer I don’t think people realize the last movie these two wrote together was Frances Ha…..they’re not a super commercial vibe so I’m curious to see their point of view. I think it will have a lot to say on materialism, escapism, excess and opulence.

I highly doubt that. Firstly, because of Greta and Noah plus the overall theme of the movie. If they nail the gender roles/ feminist aspect, critics will love it. I also think Barbie isn’t niche enough to become a cult classic just for the gays. She’s already well beyond that.

I think they were right to wait and now is the right time for it!

Everything I read about it makes me more excited to see it :excited2:

It's just a pipe dream right now but I really hope they get Trixie to do a cameo

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.
