So this apparently broke a record for sales, but isn't that kind of pointless when inflation and movie ticket prices are higher than ever? Should ticket quantities matter more when determining a movies popularity?

Saw it over the weekend and it was WAY more sophisticated than I was expecting, even with the director’s track record. Would definitely recommend.

Let’s be honest anything with Margot Robbie is going to be popular. While the idea of a Barbie movie doesn’t really appeal to me when I get the chance I’m going to watch it just because Margot is a damn goddess.

  Babylon bombed.

    Yes Babylon was (very) overlong and downbeat. Interesting her performance in Babylon, Barbie and Once Upon A Time in Hollywood were a similar masterclass in charm, beauty with naivete and tinged with sadness. I don’t consider myself a fan, but when she’s good she’s incredible :)

I’m working in a cinema now and it’s intense but very good times for us. Lovely to see this many happy customers. One hell of a double bill if you have the stamina ;)

I think reading the salty letterboxd comments is half the fun of this. Well, 100% of the fun as I have yet to see it. But I absolutely will see it because goddamn, Greta Gerwig’s take on Barbie?!? What’s not to love?
