In the scene where Barbie says she's not "Stereotypical Pretty" anymore and the Helen Mirren VO says, "Note to the filmmakers: Margot Robbie is the wrong person to cast if you want to make this point."

When the Kens "ride" in without horses, I immediately thought it's a Monty Python and the Holy Grail reference

I still find it funny that some people were triggered by the patriarchy theme on this movie when Ken was clearly interested in patriarchy just because of horses. As he knew patriarchy is more than just horses, he lost interested. Hands down one of the best jokes in the movie, i can't believe some people missed it 😂😂

I've seen the movie four times now, and it's still laugh-out-loud funny. One thing I wanted to mention was American Ferrera's speech near the middle of the film. ("You have to be thin, but not too thin...."). It got a round of applause every single time.

My favorite thing about the depression Barbie commercial was that the doll was wearing clothing that we seen in the movie. That pastel dress is what Margot Robbie was wearing when she first confronted Ken, the pink outfit was worn by America Ferreira, and the sweat pants were in the “memories“ of America Ferreira and her daughter.

My favorite line is, "To be honest, when I found out the patriarchy wasn't just about horses, I lost interest."

Omg, thank you for mentioning Proust Barbie. I spent way too much time googling and trying to figure out who the Barbie in white was. Which is not easy when all you have is that she wore a white dress and was holding a flower. Turns out I never could have found her since she never existed. Thank you for solving this mystery for me!

I gasped out loud in the cinema when I noticed the Red Pill, Blue Pill Matrix Shout Out. I love that Barbie didn't even hesitate when she initially chose the easiest option! 😂

[ziggystardog]

I howled when the narrator said “maybe one day the Kens will have as much power and influence in Barbieland as women have in the real world.”

Fun fact: that's Ryan Piers Williams - America Ferrara's real-life spouse - playing Gloria's cute Spanish-learning husband.

I enjoyed the movie. I went into it knowing this was targeted at female audiences I read it made men look bad. I disagree. I saw it as a "girls rule, boys drool" prospective of a young girl. I remember them chanting that while jumping rope years ago in elementary school on the playground. Boys where there but not important in the beginning of the movie. Later ken realizes he was being a jerk after his man cave spell but he is still "upgraded" to having a part of council. Barbie also upgrades Ken from being an accessory for her to being his own person. She explains he should not always try to be in a shadow of hers but be his own character. She doesn't need a man in her life to make it but she has also let ken find his own way. And that speech was deep about being a woman. As a man it makes me realize how hard women have it in life. I never paid much attention to barbie but now I find her much cooler then I thought. And I didn't feel offended one bit.

God, I love this movie. Honestly didn't think I would love a movie this much, but I do. Not in a fandom way, but in a deeper meaning kind of way - this movie wasn't just a movie. It's so much more special than that. This is art with a purpose.

The “play guitar AT you” line has me cracking up. Too many memories of dudes with guitars thinking that was their ticket.

[bethgainer]

I loved that Margot Robbie nailed every single movement and position or should I say lack of positions Barbie was able to get into. Watching Barbie prompted me to watch her other movies and appreciate how much of an amazing actor she is.

[lastday]

I loved this movie, it was so much more than what I expected. A lot of ppl who've watched this movie said it's about patriarchy and that is certainly the most vocal part about the movie. However, my biggest takeaway from the movie was how it celebrated human experience. The scene where Barbie bursts into genuine laughter watching people in the park, and then feeling the winds blowing through a tree was so impactful.

I noticed in the I’m Just Ken dance all the Kens are wearing black with pink socks, a reference to The Birdcage when Albert dresses in a suit but with pink socks.

[ladymistyfire]

Yesterday I was depressed, lonely with panic attacks and I was wearing sweatpants and I binge watched Barbie.

Proof that barbie movie is in fact a movie for adults and not children
I loved this movie, and already plan to buy it when it comes out.

[Ms-kn]

The amount of dedication and passion MsMojo have with the Barbie movie. I appreciate it 🤗

Kate McKinnon's line “And then you're gonna start getting sad and mushy and complicated, ” followed by a cat-like hiss, always gets me, fam. 6:26
