Barbie: The Movie

It had funny moments, I did like the 2001 parody at the beginning. On the other hand, the hypocrisy was pretty annoying. The message was definitely heavy handed. I still have to roll my eyes at Ben Shapiro burning Barbie dolls and calling it the worst movie he’s ever seen.
 
Getting towards $1.4B, shouldn't be much longer.
 
This weekend took it over!

Does anybody know why they aren't releasing this movie on DVD and Blu-Ray until the end of next February? Seems an odd choice to me since they'll completely miss the Christmas gift season.

Blu-ray.com is listing it as February 29, which is a Thursday. I don't think that's accurate until we get an official confirmation since Blu-rays almost always release on Tuesdays, or Fridays occasionally but that hasn't happened in a while. I know that in some cases for recent billion dollar hits like Top Gun: Maverick and Avatar 2 the window between theatrical and physical media release was stretched out longer than usual and I wouldn't be too surprised to see the same thing happen here but I highly doubt they wait until after Christmas to put the Blu-ray out.
 
I still haven't seen this but plan to soon. Trying to decide on bargain day at the theater for $8 or rent on demande for *gulp* $25

Just wait it out a bit longer, it should drop to $6.99 for on demand soon.

I've never paid the full on demand price. I figure if I wasn't interested enough to see something in the theater I can wait until the on demand price is low, or just wait until it is free on one of the streaming services.
 
I just watched this. And… I was somewhat underwhelmed. Now, it could be that my reaction was based more on the tremendous hype and accolades surrounding the movie — rather than the movie itself. But in any case, I was expecting Barbie to be funnier, cleverer and more subversive. Not so much, unfortunately. Some comparisons have been made to Pee-wee’s Big Adventure. And I get that. However, IMO, Pee-Wee did it better.
