some of you's only experience of engaging with barbie content is the newest movie )instead of the amazing badly written hellholes of 3d animated 2000's barbie movies with a target audience of 6 year old girls) and it SHOWS

Edit: GUYSSSSS I MEANT BADLY WRITTEN IN AN AFFECTIONATE WAY I LOVE THE 2000'S BARBIE MOVIESS

[tennessoui]

it's been so long since i did a sith obi-wan au so like - how about an au where the sith are almost as established as the jedi (a temple, an order, followers numbering in the hundreds/thousands) but things are a bit more diplomatic in the galaxy (it's definitely tense but not all out war just yet)

so both the sith and jedi orders are alerted to a new rising power in the outer rim.....on tatooine of all places. a slave rebellion, led by shmi skywalker, has toppled the hutts. it's said that this new leader, queen of tatooine, has the Force's favor....but more importantly than that, shmi skywalker is a new galactic player, with a lot of money and a lot of support.....and a son of marriageable age.

cue both the jedi and the sith sending a delegation to tatooine - ostensibly to nurture galactic relations between their orders and the new power, but also to lowkey seduce shmi skywalker's son into marriage/a relationship because everyone knows that a parent's heart follows their children's happiness.

sith!obi-wan aka darth solence is selected to lead the sith seduction attempt. he's pretty confident - after all, he's led hundreds of seduction missions at this point, and he'd suffer a thousand different humiliations for the sake of the order of the sith who took him in after the jedi sent him to the agricorps.

the only problem is that he arrives on tatooine and shmi skywalker's son, anakin, is the most bland, boring, two-dimensional boy to ever breathe. he's completely uninterested in politics, in history, in the Force---he'd rather talk about pod-racing and--and Coruscanti daytime holo shows than anything of actual interest!

good thing the prince's manservant, kitster, is almost always hanging around. he's wrong about many things, obi-wan finds, but he's passionate. passionate and beautiful. oh, he loves pod-racing just as much as the prince, but he's fascinated by the Force and ready to tear obi-wan's eyes out over a passing negative observation on a droid. and did obi-wan mention that he's beautiful? with his golden curls and sky blue eyes and fierce scowl and broad shoulders and prominent eyebrows and even more prominent lips? the sith, as a general rule, appreciate passion, anger. beauty. obi-wan adores them as well.

but kitster the man servant isn't the person obi-wan has been flown to tatooine to seduce--he's duty-bound to seduce prince anakin. even if being around him feels like pulling his teeth out with rusty pliers.

if only obi-wan knew that shmi skywalker is more suspicious about the galaxy than she lets on. more protective of her son, too. if only he knew that her son, anakin, had a best friend growing up named kitster, who owed them both just enough life-debts to convince him to trade places with shmi's son for the length of the delegations' visit.

it's an easy sell after all -- who doesn't want to be a prince for a few weeks, no harm done?

Bonus Poll: Barbie Princesses

Hi y'all! It was requested a while back that I do a poll with only Barbie princesses and since this tournament has now ended, now is as good a time as any to post this!

Also, as soon as the next tournament's theme has been decided, I'll be taking a small break so I can prepare for that tournament. Around the time this poll ends I hope to have the submission form posted. See ya then!

the real true and canon ending of saw 2004. leigh told me himself

[sangokrill]

something for my dear

[midnapanda]

Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper is about longing to break free from obligation and duty for the sake of the heart's desire. Learning that despite how big or small your desires may be, they deserve to be heard. No matter how different you are or may feel, you are loved.

Barbie: the Princess & the Popstar is about finding new ways to appreciate-- and take charge of-- the life you have, instead of coveting something idealistic and perpetually out of reach. It's about finding your voice and doing your best to take control of the life you lead.

Anyway please appreciate these movies accordingly and stop pitting them against each other. Thanks <3

if you could only watch three movies for the rest of your life what would you pick? and I’m not asking your three favorite movies, I’m asking which three movies—favorites or not—you think you’d never get sick of if they were your only options

I had to share this because I don't think even I could describe my channel better if I tried

[teenystarryapple]

me and my housemates and some of their friends watching Barbie the Princess and the Pauper:

“I think it’s unbelievable Preminger would want to marry a woman unless it was for nefarious reasons.”

“hmm I guess he might be a little zesty”

me, trying not to go on a tangent about how many villains especially in children’s media are queercoded and how it all connects back to the the Hay’s code established in 1930 (beginning to be enforced in 1934). Along with how its agenda was expedited in 1954 with the publication of The Seduction of the Innocent - which subsequently caused the creation of the Comics Code and the Comics Code authority the same year. And all of this forged the still-lasting connection between negative role models and flamboyancy/other stereotypically queer characteristics:
