Ken’s Movie Show Takes!
🐎🎥🎬❕
So for my first horse movie take, it’s actually for a TV show. Psych. Anybody out there heard of it? It’s something else, lemme tell ya.
So! Psych season 2, episode 5. “And Down the Stretch Comes Murder” that’s kind of a scary word
Horse content! - 3/5
It was super cool that this show had horse races! But I didn’t like that the short, mean guy blamed the horse for losing his races. That wasn’t very nice! And neither was the bad guys making the horses sick so they slow down. They wasn’t nice either! But it was still really, really cool to see them race! They’re so pretty.
Rewatchability - 4/5
I mean, I think I should start from the beginning and watch the show in order so I understand what’s going on and what these two dudes are about, but yeah, I could watch this again. Especially since I know the horses are okay at the end.
How much I enjoyed it - 4/5
I thought it was a fun show! Really funny and they saved the day and the horses which is always great!
Bonus category: Kenergy - 5/5
These two dudes are total Kens. And one of them is even in love with a Barbie! I could hang out with these guys. We’d be friends for sure. Are we sure they didn’t escape from Barbie Land?

new metric for media literacy for film bros is if they understand the barbie movie.
the kens are first presented as accessories to their barbies and it's pointed out loud that they don't even have places to stay in barbieland. one of the barbies straight up asks "wait, where do the kens stay?". they're just arm candy made to look pretty and cool while the barbies run their world.
but that's fucked up!!! the film presents it as fucked up! that's why ken screams "YOU FAILED ME!" and why he is insecure in the first place because he wanted to be respected and seen as a person, not someone who only exists in relation to someone else. should he have done what he did? no!!! that's why it's part of the conflict! the root of both of their breakdowns was in their society in that the barbies are supposed to be perfect and the kens exist in relation to them! it's barbie and ken. he was a footnote. that's why barbie apologizes to him in the end and tells him he can be himself. she doesn't have to exist by some set of rules and neither does he! it's barbie and it's ken! sure, the resolution to the whole barbieland issue wasn't perfect, BUT KEN'S WHOLE ARC IS ABOUT HOW THEIR WORLD FAILED MEN. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS MOVIE WAS 'WOMEN GOOD MAN BAD'. WHAT ABOUT THE NUANCE
#barbie#headcanon he got her house by the end btw. it's the mojo dojo casa house but it's also the dreamhouse dhdgdhshsj#look im sick of seeing the takes that are like hurr durr it's just another anti man movie#okay explain why they portrayed ken in a sympathetic light. his actions were fucked up but you could see exactly why he did them.#and in the end he is berated for his wrongs but also told that he doesn't have to continue down that path. did you miss the critique#did the pink blind you so much you couldn't see past it. did you american psycho this shit again dhdgdgdhd#barbie spoilers

Had a realization about jarlaxle’s whole plot on the surface world…
#legend of drizzt#jarlaxle baenre#my roommate was actually the one who pointed out#that jarlaxle's journey to the surface world is basically just the ken part of the barbie movie#I haven't been the same since#it matches up too well#I mean they even take over and redecorate that castle in road of the patriarch(y)#mojo dojo vaasa house?? hello??#i need someone else to validate this vision with me lmao help#arrrt#'mine'#booksss

currently thinking about last year when all the right wing men were whining about the barbie movie and how it was promoting misandry and radical feminism only to watch the movie and see the most surface level feminist takes like damn this is radical to men? the way they were speaking about it i was expecting america ferrera’s character to start quoting the scum manifesto or something
#barbie#the barbie movie#margot robbie#america ferrera#feminism#no hate to america ferrera btw#i also get that not all women are fully informed on feminism so it’s good to have more surface level introductions#at least that’s my take#but still#the way barbie literally apologies to ken at the end too#ik i’m a year late on discussing this shut up#women#female

I want to write barbie x ken fanfiction set maybe a couple years after the movie (Barbie spoilers)
where ken decides to go to the Real World because he Can Do That now and meets barbie again whos been adjusting and living self-love and doing things and finding herself and It's this, like, tearful reunion moment and Ken's still in love with her but he's much better at keeping it to himself because ken always respects barbie's decisions, but barbie spends a few days with this ken who has over time also sort of become himself, and has discovered his interests and likes and dislikes and became, like, more rounded through experiences and discovers that she finds him utterly endearing and begins falling for him and just. Second chances pure friendship to lovers barbie x ken where they take some time off for themselves and meet each other as better people (dolls? idk u get the point).
#barbie spoilers#Someone on twitter compared Barbie's arc to that of Erika's from princess and the pauper#who decided to become a singer and travel the world and take time for herself before focusing on love#Barbie and Ken having a healthy relationship and turning a new page#and getting to know each other all over again#like they're both in a better place now yknow?#maybe they can have an unconventional long distance relationship that works because they're barbie and ken#barbie#ken#barbie movie#barbie 2023#(also its funny bc i just remembered that barbie vlogs barbie friendzoned ken lmao)#(I think they're tgt now? idk)#They've never been in a real relationship and didn't break up bc they were never tgt in the movie#I love barbie x ken so much but the movie's open end was good and fitting#so like. best of both worlds! they're barbie and ken everything is possible

Ken’s Movie Takes!
💡 🎥 🎬❕
Okay so this week, I decided to try this one that actually doesn’t have horses in it. Shocking! Yeah, I know! I was surprised too! But I wanted something funny to watch, and I was told this one was funny. So this week’s movie take is about Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
Horse Content - 0/5
I knew that going in though, so it wasn’t like a surprise or anything. A horse really would’ve put this movie over the top though. I thought when the parade showed up, I would’ve seen one, but unless I blinked at the wrong time, I didn’t see one.
Rewatchability - 4/5
Despite having no horses like at all in the movie, it was still pretty cool to watch. I’d watch it again no problem.
How much I enjoyed it - 4/5
Yeah, I enjoyed it! This dude, Ferris wow what a name, huh? he’s pretty ingenious. The grownups were pretty dumb though. Like all of them. Which was kinda cringe, ya know? Like Gloria’s a grownup, but she’s definitely not dumb. But that CEO dude comes off that way… I don’t know, but the grownups made me laugh. The sister though, she made me roll my eyes.
Kenergy - 3.5/5
Like this is tough actually. Because like there’s no character with a definite Kenergy presence, but there were a lot of Kenergy moments. But you know what? Ferris gave me like Barbie vibes with some Kenergy moments. And like the best friend Cameron? Allan. Very Allan to me. With some Kenergy moments. Crazy, right?

Everytime I see a new trailer or anything for Barbie I am so much more convinced that Ken (Ryan Gosling) is gonna be the ultimate antagonist.
My favorite way of showing this is through his outfits, though there are others.
So he starts off looking like what we'd expect of Ken. In a blue outfit, open shirt, and the way he acts at this point is just head over heels for Barbie. This photo takes place before he asks to spend the night in Barbie's Dreamhouse ("not Ken's Dreamhouse")
Then when they move onto the real world, he matches Barbie almost exactly.
He's in pink and practically everything Barbie's wearing, nothing that looks like his earlier more neutral outfits. He's as out of place as she is in the real world; his place is next to Barbie. But after spending time in the real world?
He's in all black. A completely not-Barbie color. Hell, in the right picture he looks downright angry, as if he's threatening the person he's looking at. And he's back in Barbieland.
Kinda gets me thinking about the theme of the movie. Greta Gerwig is not one to hold back, so I'm thinking we'll see both Barbie and Ken realizing what it means to be human, specifically in our society, a society where there has always been a severe disadvantage between men and women. Barbie is upset that this is what the real world is, what being a human woman is, but Ken? This is what he wants, a world where men are in power, where he's more than 'Just Ken', where he gets a Dreamhouse too.
#i have so much more i want to say and the movie isn't out yet#holy fuck do i love greta gerwig#sorry if this is an old take i just had to get my thoughts#especially about the black outfit in barbieland#film#movies#cinema#greta gerwig#barbie#barbie 2023#barbie movie#margot robbie#ken#ryan gosling#simu liu#america ferrera#kate mckinnon#will ferrell#issa rae#john cena#dua lipa#ncuti gatwa#there's so many of them#kings all of them#corner conversations

also, i had to post this early because for some reason tumblr kept deleting this specific post every time it was queued or saved as a draft
HOT TAKE TOURNAMENT
TOURNAMENT OVERTIME #182
Submission 527
the Barbie movie (2023) was horrible
[SUBMITTED JUSTIFICATION UNDER THE CUT - PLEASE READ]
Propaganda is encouraged!
Also, remember to reblog your favourite polls for exposure!
Submitted justification:
unfortunately this is a dead serious take of mine. that movie was a story of a horrible tragedy portrayed as justice. and the subtle violent radfem undertones were deeply uncomfortable. my reasons for disliking it are very complicated and personal, so I'm going to try and keep this brief and try to avoid saying anything too charged.
i understand liking it— it was a very fun movie! the way they did the practical effects and props and setting were all genius and very cool!
but.. the way they handled Ken and his struggles felt extremely minimizing, cruel, and violent. I've *been* the reject kid before. I *know* what that's like. I've been humiliated and degraded before for being too much, for having ADHD, for being autistic, for wanting to be included in friend groups that didn't want me.
ken's story is a *tragedy* of a person who dared to ask for love and inclusion, who dared to ask over and over until the only option left to him was to be made into a villain for it. and instead of realizing that maybe, just maybe, this was a cry for help... that maybe, this was the last straw in a long long long line of instances of horribly cruel social bullying and humiliation.... that maybe Ken never wanted to hurt anyone, that maybe he just wanted everyone to see how much he was hurting, that maybe he never wanted power or violence, but empathy instead.... instead of considering any of at, the movie has Barbie and her friends *laugh* at his suffering, and watch him on the brink of tears with the grim satisfaction of a bully that got away with it.
i came away from this movie thinking, what should Ken have done better to avoid this? what could he have done to be truly accepted? what was the "good" choice, if what he actually chose was actually so evil?
and the answer is, nothing. he was spending his entire life serving and worshipping a group that wanted him quiet, polite, and dead. from personal experience, this is the kind of friend group that would probably find it at best a personal irritant, if he had attempted suicide.
this movie was so hurtful. it really felt like they said "people like you are better off dead or behaving like perfect mindless dolls, because when you try to get what you want, you just bother the people around you." conform or else.
i know people get icky when people claim that misandry exists, but.... consider the plot of this same movie, if ken had been one of barbie's girl friends. or if ken had been a trans girl. or hell, even a trans girl egg. i just see people only praising this movie and... no one seems to acknowledge how unnecessarily, brutally cruel they were to Ken, and how little empathy he received both from the general audience and from the writers and Barbie herself.
