"barbie truly created the ideal society. women in every career field without question and holding positions of power. wearing pink traditionally hyper-feminine outfits while doing so. modern urban planning that creates walkable utopian cities. unique architectural designs. himbos everywhere. neon colors as far as the eye can see. everyone slaying."
It is kind of funny that the movie's ultimate message was that a society with strictly enforced gender roles and a dominant sex is good.
Also where was the queer representation? They showed magic earing Ken but no gay characters? Really??
What movie did you watch? That's a terrible take on it. I'm not sure how you could even think that's the message. That's like literally the opposite of the movie's message.
Do you think so? Consider the subtext, not just the genders of the actors.
The conflict of the film is, quite literally, an oppressed sex lashing out at the society that oppressed them and taking control. The resolution is the previously dominant sex regaining control and putting the oppressed sex back in their former, subservient positition.
The movie almost literally ends by asking the audience "Why is this resolution bad?" 💀
