While posting and commenting in this community, you must abide by the Lemmy.World Terms of Service: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

  1. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, or advocating violence will be removed.

  2. Be civil: disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally insult others.

  3. Spam, self promotion, trolling, and bots are not allowed

  4. Shitposts and memes are allowed until they prove to be a problem.

    Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.

    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Greta is the snub, Margot did a good job but nothing stellar. Ryan Gosling stole every scene he was in.

Edit: and the meme actually ignores that the plot is actually gender neutral. It applies to everyone, not just Barbie.

I think there were a couple bits about women in particular

Barbies don't have bits though

I can see you didn't finish watching the film.

Barbies. Plural.

Which begs the question, how tf Midge got pregnant? Or is she an anomaly in Barbieland?

It was Ken's movie and Barbie was only starring in it.

I kinda thought the writers made her character meh on purpose to show young girls that while stereotypical Barbie is a cool toy, she's not really someone they should aspire to be
