#i get mattel wasnt gonna make mattel actually evil so when i say how cartoonishly evil they were was expected but still annoying

[lilgynt]

one thing that gets me about the barbie movie is like. they have a scene where the women who played with barbie honestly don’t remember her name was explaining barbie who cares if this guy likes you he stole ur home ruined barbie land and is awful and barbie’s like oh right fuck him i don’t need to comfort him or worry about his feelings then immediately comforted him and walked him through his feelings

#personal #why was there so much ken. it was so ken focused like barbie felt like a secondary character in her own movie #everything about the barbie movie annoys me like. the insane amount of pseudo intellectual talk about it being a reverse genesis #how this is a girl movie for the girls about girls (about men) #all that diversity and for what? and not to say having diversity without really acknowledging it is bad #i like when diversity is natural and accepted as normal and just allowed to be #but it was such a part of the marketing and for what? for what #i get mattel wasnt gonna make mattel actually evil so when i say how cartoonishly evil they were was expected but still annoying #especially with holding NO punches back on the misogyny from men in the movie #like yes i’m painfully aware of it but it felt so aggressive for a movie. about dolls. that little girls play with #then nothing being done about male dominated space in the mattel industry other than president barbie being like we’re gonna change that #but not really? #like it’s such a nothing movie #it’s just nothing #and i wish it had the balls to be sincere #just practically tripping over itself to say GOTCHA to any complaints people may have about barbie it’s just painfully unconfident #and the daughter character was annoying full stop also that line where she’s like mom ur crazy and weird and i like it no one here earned #that and i just can’t get over how fucking man focused this movie is #like ken was such a huge part SUCH a huge part #gg n i went to hot topic and we saw barbie stuff and i love complaining about it with her #and it’s such a white feminist movie like all this diversity and it’s just. so nothing and so plain #and what was i made for has personally ruined my life i hate that song #charlie xcxs song does go hard i am not deaf
