why the everloving actual fuck is everyone and their mom in my internets feeds talking about seeing the damn barbie movie that i wouldn't have even known existed otherwise.
we're 3 years out of the biggest global conjob - that killed and impoverished people nearly everywhere - arguably in human history, we've got dingbat sleepy joe letting the military industrial complex walk us all further towards WWIII with 2 nuclear armed powers, and americans are all "OMG DID YOU SEE THERE'S A BARBIE MOVIE NOW?!?!?"
i've been told it apparently is "good" and has broad themes around "existentialism" to which i say the following:
NO.
i will not see this fucking movie. here are 3 other things i will not see, that came immediately to mind when hearing that barbie is apparently existentialist now:
a. a film about the poop emoji but it’s a retelling of the buddha’s journey
b. a movie about a furby who decides to become a revolutionary political activist and rid the world of nuclear weapons
c. bladerunner 3 except instead of replicants they’re all beanie babies now.
...
long story short, barbie ≠ existentialism and i couldn't care less how good it is. i'm not fucking watching it. FFS america.
...thank you for coming to my dissertation.
