The far right is constantly warning that if you go woke, you’ll go broke. But when it comes to the new Barbie movie, they couldn’t be more wrong.
Barbie, which follows Barbie (Margot Robbie) and Ken (Ryan Gosling) as they leave Barbie Land to explore the real world, earned a whopping $162 million in its opening weekend, Variety reported Monday. This is the biggest opening weekend of the year, and the biggest opening weekend for a female director ever.
The film had already made $22.3 million at the domestic box office from Thursday previews, the biggest preview haul of the summer. It blew the previous record of $17.5 million (made by Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in May) out of the water.
Nope
Did you watch the movie? Literally the whole ending sequence was about how great motherhood is.
No ofence but i think you are proyecting your own believes on it. Do you mean the ginecologist scene or the one where she meets her maker? If you watch those scenes out of context then you could make a case if you really stretch it out. But the end is about how meaningless the political fight really is on a personal level. Life goes on, notting really changes or gets better and you still need to find meaning and going to the gynecologist is presented more as a middle finger to reality rather than barbie being pregnant if thats how you interpreted it. At least in my opinion.
