I finally saw the Barbie Movie and it was… really just a movie. Gave me something to do for two hours, but it didn’t feel substantive. Had some good messaging for women who needed to hear the same message the “brainwashed” Barbies needed to hear, even though that concept sounds patronizing now that I’m putting words to it. I have other thoughts, but voicing them feels a little like beating a dead horse. Women far smarter than I have provided incredibly cutting critiques of this movie and its portrayal white feminism, girlboss feminism, and capitalistic feminism.
#really weird that the genocide of indigenous people happened in Barbie Land too. I caught that Barbie Land Mt. Rushmore scene#no one making that movie probably thought of the implications of that#a part of me was wondering if I was Too Trans™️ for parts of this movie to make sense to me#because I have never understood the way we sort things into binaries and the way we gender things#So I was constantly like: '*This* is their masculinity?' There was no teeth in its critique of masculinity. Hell. There was no critique#there wasn't even a real critique of the patriarchy as a system of power or the masculinity it inspires#it was just a vague caricature of men and the idea 'Men don't understand us. They just talk at us rather than to us; mansplain and stuff...#...but they desire us and want our affection and attention so we can weaponize that to our advantage for our power.'#Umm...no you can't. They don't actually like you; they see you as a status symbol. You can't use a feature of the patriarchy to take it dow#whatever...#oh. also:#Me: ‘Oh my god. Look at all the fanny packs.’#my mother: ‘Do you see they’re in a Metallica font?’#‘Yes…’#‘You know what Metallica’s logo looks like right?’#‘Yes.’#‘So you get it?’#*blinks* ‘…No.’#‘🙄 So you don’t know what it looks like.’ *proceeds to show me a picture of the Metallica logo*#‘Okay. Yeah. Looks cool? I suppose they chose that font because of that.’#‘They chose it because it’s masculine.’#‘Huh? What?’#‘Have you even heard Metallica before?’#‘Yup.’#‘So you know it’s music for men.’#‘Umm… I don’t know about that. I think any one can like their music. I get it’s a band of white men but anyone can like metal & that genre.#‘🙄 It’s men’s music. That’s the point.’#‘Is it? Or have the Kens just appropriated anything they think ‘looks cool’ and proclaimed it as something ‘for’ men?’#(like— I got the impression they were just repeating what they saw and heard#did the creators think Metallica is 'for men' or did they recognize men's tendency to appropriate and gatekeep?)

Dick (Nightwing) and Jason (Robin) stare at Bruce. One sports pleading eyes, the other a shit eating grin. There’s a child between them with black hair and blue eyes.
Bruce, he doesn’t know what’s happening but he doesn’t like it: No.
Dick, grinning: He’s our younger brother now.
Jason, nodding seriously: You’re not gonna take him from us.
Tim, got kidnapped while taking photos of patrol, just happy to be there: Where’s the Batcave?
Bruce: what.
Dick, grinning wider: He’s ours now.

one of the funniest parts of the honda odyssey scene is right after logan pulls the car over because he's so obviously burning with rage over wade lying to him, but then wade says he made an "educated wish" and that bewilders logan so much he goes from being mad to just blinking and staring at him like this

and then wade goes on that long spiel about how he needs to save his family and at the end of all that logan just says "did you say you made an educated fucking wish?" his baffled ass was NOT listening 😭

LL Megatron gets transported to the G1 cartoon (pre movie) guns don't kill anyone, everyone is more focused on their one liners then battle, wizards are real, days dont mean anything, what a silly universe
Edit: Comic based on this idea here
