Comment on Why Did ‘Barbie’ Bomb in South Korea?
GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 1 year agoUm yes, I saw the movie. That was a point they raised throughout, showing the inequality in both Barbie world and the real world. If you didn’t get it before the finale, I don’t think one more quip was going to turn the lights on for anyone. So what was the excuse for having the narrator condoning treating the Kens as poorly as women have been treated in the real world?

To demonstrate a point more saliently than intellectually. That line hurt on purpose and it’s a good thing. It gets through better.
I do hope my fellow dudes can handle the tiniesr bit of pain for a learning opportunity.
