There was a LOT in this movie that would probably make QT a fan. I mean, QT was there on day one. He knew what was up.

Caught it today, had a great time. Has a real fun-factor and I'd definitely rewatch.
Robbie and Gosling both absolutely killed it. Perfection.
Only weird thing was that despite the good, after all the hype and trailers, it possibly wasn't quite as good as I was expecting. Perhaps harsh but I went in expecting a 9 or 10/10 and it fell just short of that standard. Also started to drag in the final 30.
Oh and a shout for the "Margot Robbie is not the person to cast when making this point" line from Mirren, that got the biggest laugh in our audience.

I'm Just Ken has hit the Billboard charts. I really want this song to do well enough to force Todd in the Shadows to do a video on it.

Not gonna lie, I've been listening to this song nonstop the last two days. I always jump to the part at the end with the manly chorus of Kens singing.

I did get to see this finally. It was cute, despite using some tropage (fictional character in the real world, the mother who remembers said character helps her kid believe in her). No Rockers though... sigh... I understand not wanting to be too meta, but {Spoiler} no references to other Mattel toys at the Mattel office? I of course would have marked if He-Man made an appearance.

The negative reaction coming from sad “anti-woke” piss babies is definitely going to fuel a strong second weekend by people either wanting to see it just to spite that crowd or they are curious to see what has all them knickers in a twist. Yeah I've seen a lot of people on Twitter see the rest of us talk about it, and the backlash, and go "Ok, I gotta see it now" lol Lemme guess, {Spoiler}Changing the Barbie Land Constitution and I think there was a bit about a wall too ...hit too close to home?

I of course would have marked if He-Man made an appearance. That was kinda my hope for a post-credit scene - {Spoiler}Aaron the Intern comes running into the boardroom. Aaron: Sir, we just received a report of another escape. CEO: Another Barbie? Aaron: No sir, a different franchise... Then we cut to John Cena dressed as He-Man and carrying a giant honking sword wandering around the streets of Los Angeles.

Considering the way everything went dark to chase those Bat Dollars, I'm assuming all superhero movies will be pink hued now.
