I live in a remote place, not near a movie theatre, so I am probably going to wait to see these movies when they are streaming, but I am so happy that Barbie exists. There are so few movies made primarily for the female audience. I feel like every five to ten years Hollywood makes one, there are lots of articles about "Wow, women will go to the movies if something is made that interests them," and then for next few years it is all things thought to appeal to 20-year-old males. I don't mind seeing some of those movies, I in fact have like a few of the Marvel movies, but it is nice to have something that seems to want to appeal to women, even if I am probably to old to be the target for this particular movie.

Sonny, I agree with Sarah that you probably aren't interested in movies that are about the interior lives of women, but not everything has to appeal to all people. It seems like the default is appealing to the previously mentioned 20-year-old male, and mixing that up is a good thing.

Sonny, Sonny, Sonny, How could not not enjoy all the witty sarcasm truths in the Barbie movie? I feel for you man because you are missing out big time! Maybe you will get what it is all about years from now after you have a bit more life experience under your belt! XO From a fan
