The werey signed a 100 days cinema exclusive run with Universal ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜ฉ, which elapses on Oct. 29th, so you are correct, November is the earliest date for the VOD.

It's almost 1am and I just finished watching Barbie. I'd give the story line a 6/10 and costuming 8/10. The Kens were really hilarious especially Ryan Gosling. It's a light hearted movie, like it's not that deep but I get why some men are mad lol, the movie made men look dumb.

Anyone angry at this has probably never seen a Barbie media in thier life prior, i bet you, if this movie came out , let say 10 years ago, people will have absolutely no qualms with it, but now, movies are being watched with big microscope to see which silly thing they did wrong, and that's why we have many bad movies now in ratio to Good ones, Film makers are simply afraid to express thier "art" properly, they expect them to please, the rainbow gang, racial mafias, misguided feministas, egotistical misogynists and even the disabled (more recently)!, all in a 2hrs movie!. Now tell me how this kind of flick would come out good.

I use to enjoy Family Guy but not anymore because of BS like this, if S1 - S5 came out in this period, these people would have probably convulse and have a stroke. Nobody and Nothing was out of bound in thier butt of jokes and they engaged hot topics in thier gags, 9/11, the Christian "God", Jesus, The Prophet SAW, LGTV folks, i mean nothing was out of bounds. It was now left for the audiences to decipher how to interpret this art.


If one's takeaway from the Barbie movie is that "Men are dumb", then that person has no business seeing movies, and as the movie is PG-13, if your 13 year old child sees it and concluded that, he/she/their Father is dumb?, Then that person is probably failing as a parent.

Actually youโ€™re right in a sense, the issue was itโ€™s a blockbuster and they took themselves seriously it should have been a satire, especially when they called the real world a patriarchy which is not in the West

"Took themselves seriously" in what context? Because it was billed as a "Fantasy comedy" and nothing in that sub genre screams seriousness tbh. Greta Gerwig just wanted to make a "simple " live action of a popular merchandise and make many people's childhood fantasies come true, the promotion just went out of whack, as many brand didn't want to waste a once in a lifetime "PR goldmine" by not tapping into it, Heck if i was a marketing lead at a big firm, i would probably fear for my job if i didn't"tap into the Barbie hysteria". The whole promotions had a very strong satirical undertone, so what gives??

It might actually get to December because Christopher Nolan is such a stubborn "cinema freak", him and Tom Cruise, i don't know who is worse, left to these lot, VOD releases for movies should be scrapped. They both favour a long cinema run and them Direct to Blu Ray copy.

The movie is still guaranteed IMAX screens for a while because CN actually use IMAX cameras and so the wait for the VOD will be rough ๐Ÿ˜”.

Shame i passed up the opportunity to see it on the first weekend, and i thought the wait for the VOD will be normal, till i read his contract with the Distribution Company ๐Ÿ˜”. My freetime with the showtime of it where i am, never did sync up, so it's a long wait ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

With all the box office numbers that people were throwing up and down, you would think that such people would be watching those movies at the cinema.

So, it is pirates that majorly grace this thread?

Barbie landed on the high seas and now, people have an opinion.

Sha, here is my opinion-

BARBIE REPRESENTS THE WORST KIND OF FEMINISM- CAPITALIST FEMINISM

Feminism is not a problem- women deserve equal rights. The issue is that feminism has been diluted to support modern hypergamy and capitalist structures which are ironically oppressive to both men and women.

For instance, Barbie is a market product. A representation of the sexual appeal of the average american consumer- a white, able-bodied, slim blonde woman. This is not representative of many women. This is why a scene of different barbies was incorporated into the barbie movie- so that the criticism of "whiteness" and a lack of intersectional feminism would be abated.

Barbie is heavily marketed with pink. Pink- the capitalist colour marketed to little girls and thereby conditioning them to gendered norms. The same gendered norms that feminists wouldn't want forced on women.


I could go on and on. But it seems that people here prefer the nonsense written by shalaye masters from hyping box office numbers to writing anachronistic reviews of movies.
