They had a 7-foot Barbie box at the Ritzy, for people to walk into and get pictured inside of it.Regent Street Cinema was a great venue for Barbie.
Have your photo taken in a Life-size Barbie Box, free Heart Shaped Shades, Pink Cocktails / Mocktails.
Lots of peeps in pink.
One woman went full on attention to detail and bravely wore this:

Can't help but wonder what Mattel thought of it all. (Yes, they probably sold more dolls as a result of the publicity but it's not exactly positive about them )
'Kreiz clarified that Mattel does not fund its movies. Rather, its currency lies with its IP and "marketing expertise," he said, adding that the company does have a hand in the film's business side."You're aware that Mattel funded and produced it right?
As I said:With an eye on making a multiverse using their other toys?

What did you think of the film? You've seen it, right?
He was quoting friendofdorothy talking about a cabaret act she’d seen.In the beginning credits I think it said it was a Mattel movie. Considering that, it is interesting how Mattel was portrayed as basically an evil corporation, but I guess they decided the increased sales were well worth it.
Can't say I got a "punk lesbian s&m fuck me barbie" vibe from it in the slightest, just the opposite. Shippy, you sure you're not thinking of a different movie in your collection?

One of the most liberating things I ever saw involving Barbie's was a punk lesbian s&m club night called 'fuck me barbie'. The name described the cabaret too. I magine this Barbie film will be very disappointing in comparison.
Dont know anything about the Batman films though presumably (as with any trademarked entity), the owner (DC?) had to grant permission for its use. Did you think Barbie presented Mattel in a positive light? I didn't.Yep. I've seen it. It was ok.
And if you believe Mattel had no input into the production and editing of the film, then I guess you'll also (bizarrely) believe that DC has no influence over the Batman movies. I mean it's hardly a secret. Of course they wouldn't let a final edit go out without their say-so.

There's some talk of it not getting a release here, but that's unlikely. Just that the release date hasn't been decided. Some films get delayed for quite some time. Everything Everywhere All at Once only got released in March this year!
I’m not sure where you are tbh.There's some talk of it not getting a release here, but that's unlikely. Just that the release date hasn't been decided. Some films get delayed for quite some time. Everything Everywhere All at Once only got released in March this year!
The only country the US used two atomic bombs on, hence the slight controversy.I’m not sure where you are tbh.
Aha… awkward!The only country the US used two atomic bombs on, hence the slight controversy.
Why would a grown adult want to see a Barbie film? The mind boggles.
Yes.Does this woke film address the vast amount of plastic waste created by this and other toys*, or the greenhouse gases needed to manufacture and ship them**? Not to be a miserable fucker or anything.
*toys are the most plastic-intensive consumer products in the world, according to a 2014 UN report!
**660g of GHG per Barbie
It's a little confusing in the first few minutes working out the film's timelines
