Fun fact the reason midge was considered problematic was because, parents thought she was a single teen mom. In reality she was an adult married to Allen.
Ohhhh okay that makes sense. Do you remember if they were sold as pair? If not that was massive oversight 😅 definitely should have sold her with Allen
@@sarhahillsburg5142They weren’t. And at first Midge didn’t have a wedding ring.
After the backlash they added a wedding ring and a cardboard cutout of her husband Alan and her toddler son Ryan to the box.
Midge was the only barbie I had 😂😂
I wonder if she was originally conceptualized as married to Allen or if that was their fix when people freaked out.
@@WelcomeApathy She was married to Alan as part of a “Happy Family” line and a bride and groom set. Then she was sold with Alan and their son Ryan.
Only after all that was the pregnant version of Midge sold.
But parents don’t always keep up on what the story lines are with these dolls, so parents just knew that Barbie is supposed to be an older teen. To them Midge was “a Barbie”, so she must also be a teen.
They really should have put on the packaging that Midge was Barbie’s neighbor or something like that, the same way Skipper and Stacie dolls said they were Barbie’s little sisters.
Anything to show that Midge is an adult, not one of Barbie’s peers.
I'm surprised you didn't sin that Barbie was able to walk about to a group of teens at high school and not immediately get asked to leave by a staff member.
... You'd be surprised how accurate that is.
Agreed, there didn't seem to be any adult supervisors, from what I can remember, and she clearly didn't look like a high school student. Then again, I'm possibly nitpicking a movie where realism isn't really an expectation.
Someone ordered a prostitute and teachers didn't care 😮
Well despite Barbie has been around for a long time since 1959 and has had so many careers, her canon age is 19 and there are some 19 year Olds who have either repeated year 12 or have done a 13th year of school. But yeah the teachers should have checked
umm... public high schools are shit. ofc she would be able to just walk in. the "staff" you are referencing doesn't exist
The two silent sins off for "You're so beautiful" are proof he has a heart.
Nah it’s proof that he’s playing the political game
I think one was for "You're so beautiful" and the other was for "I know."
@@lachlancox4630 Definitely playing the political game
@@bradk7882nah, can't remember when Cinema sins went from being a normal human being to a woke maniac lol
@@horacioelconserjeopina3956 A woman calling another woman "beautiful" is woke mania?
My one criticism, which he pointed out, is how unrealistic the mattel company is. If you establish that it is the real world, you can’t have the mother and daughter act normal and real but have the mattel people be so ridiculous
Then again if there is one place on earth that would have the campy cartooniness of Barbie Land it would make sense for that place to be Mattel HQ
@@EssyTico Besides, corporations aren't people, lol.
...have you _seen_ the decisions businesspeople make? The Mattel of the movie was highly realistic.
Well also there's the fact that half of the board of directors are women, it's not a shocker there either that it was all men in the movie.
The real world was too unreal
I love that Sasha and her friends were designed after the Bratz dolls, AKA Barbie's biggest competitors. One pal is apparently called Jade, and Sasha is nicknamed Bunny Boo, just like her animated counterpart.
Come on Barbie let's go party!
"God why the director put politics in this movie" This movie wasn't about Barbie at all. The script sucked, the characters are not well developed, and lazy plot.
@@dimitrytimothee1590 That's not a very nice way to say "This is a kids movie and I'm not their target demographic"
@@FlaxenEmperor29 A kids movie? "Their curse in the movie and you saying it is a kids movie??"
@@dimitrytimothee1590 Kids can be older than 9???
I honestly feel Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken are some of the best casting choices ever made this year!
FACTS Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling always give awesome performances
that also says something about the year though
Knew from the trailers Margot Robbie would be the perfect Barbie, but honestly did not expect how well Ryan Gosling would fit the role of Ken. Wasn’t until I reflected on his other roles afterwards that I realized he has a huge range as an actor and is great in so many different roles!!
"ever made this year", so ever, or just this year?
Thanks for being honest!
That delivery of the line of Barbie looking at the old lady and saying “you’re so beautiful” even while watching a cinema sin was enough to tear me up like that shit is so powerful 😭
legit crying right now because of that
really? i thought it was cringey
@@CarlDraper 1. U never seen the movie
2. Ur a man reacting negatively to a movie that’s intended to empower woman which is literally one of the themes of the movie
Tbh, when I watched the movie I didn't get it and I still don't, it just seems kinda out of place (unnecessary)🤷🏻♀️
But if other people like good for them.
@@mischief2449 the old lady’s line is a little cheesy but it makes you giggle a bit. There’s just something about seeing Margot Robbie who is such a beautiful woman (portraying the stereotypical “perfect” Barbie) calling a person deemed ugly by society beautiful and sounding so sincere about it. It’s just a wholesome moment you wish would happen in real life but rarely ever does
The “you’re so beautiful” scene always gets me because it’s the first time Barbie has seen an old person and this is her reaction. 🥺 this movie man
That is actually Oscar-winning costume designer Ann Roth. Greta Gerwig is friends with Roth. She was 91 when that scene was filmed.
The fact that he says nothing when she says you're beautiful and just gives a sin, made me weak 😂
@@ianmcmurray2971 He actually *removed* a sin.
I still gotta say, when Ken puts on the second set of sunglasses, I lost it in the theater. I was rolling in my seat. It was that kind of joke you'd get out of old-school Simpsons or something. Just fantastic.
Cinema Sins adding the CSI Miami music to it in the endcard made me laugh all over again! Definitely hilarious.
Apparently, Ryan Gosling made that up, which makes it sooo much better
Calm down
@@blakehansen5434 as you put on the second set of sunglasses due to the self-perceived utter coolness of your comment....

When my little sister (10 y.o) heard about depressed Barbie in cinema, she turned to me and said “we have to get this one for you” lmao
Your little sister is a tiny queen 👑
IM SCREAMING
🫢
LMFAOO that's so real of her💀
My only disagreement to this is the “I’m not pretty anymore” cry. As a woman, I swear I’m not superficial, but almost always the first line to my breakdowns are “I’m not pretty” before it descends into the real problems and I feel that being her opening was the perfect line that almost broke me
Maybe you are not pretty
@@Snowaxe3Dno u
Me 2. And the thing is I don't even really care. I've never noticed anula of my "flaws" until people told they were ugly and had to change
An ex-gf of mine used to obsess about her beauty--especially during her manic episodes. She'd flash her phone in my face of some random girl on the internet and ask me if the girl was hotter than was she. 😕 Obviously, this was a *terrible* situation, because we all know that any reply was non-sequitur to the real issue. And, as expected, I eventually had to exit that relationship because simply put... megalomaniacal narcissists are both self-destructive and they also cause MASSIVE collateral damage to anyone and everything around them.
The last drop in the bucket very often is the first to spill out...followed by the actual things that spilled said metaphorical bucket. I felt that line too. It's not about the first line said in a breakdown. the first line is the last straw.... and it I can be superficial but the problems that caused it aren't and that's why I liked it. It felt real. You can have problems that aren't the main issue and they still affect you.
The two biggest sins that stood out to me: Barbie should be sleeping perfectly rigid with her arms down rather than bent near her head like a human child, and Ken shouldn't have nipples.
She's probably one of the Barbies with more articulation. Do you remember gymnast Barbie?
Also, Ken's hair should be plastic.
@@Criner05 lol yes! And their teeth shouldn't have any spaces, just be continuous rows 😅
Unless she's folded arms Barbie.
You know those whose thumbs always tear away the fabric of clothes?
Even with all the sins, no one can deny that she was indeed a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world.
It is hard to deny that throughout all of this that life in plastic; it's fantastic.
@@jamesdmack Heyho Barbie Let's Go Party
her life is plastic its pretty much fantastic
Except Mattel - who tried to sue Aqua for that song.
@@ImmortalConez But can we comb her hair and take her everywhere?
He better take a sin off for the Kens dance scene
Yes or else we will find him 😂. Does the term long-term-distance-casual-non-commitment-favourite-you-tuber mean NOTHING to him??? 😲 😮 😲 😮
10 sins, I suggest!! 😂
SUBLIME!
@@CinemaSins please do APOCALYPTO from Mel Gibson
@@CinemaSinsPlease do EWW The Super Mario Bros Movie (2023)!
i don't think i'll ever be over ken screaming "SUBLIME."
The "You're so beautiful" makes me tear up every time and it's so nice to see CinemaSins appreciate it too. No jokes, no commentary, just a sin off for both lines
I got a kick out of Ken getting interested in Patriarchy because he believed that it involved horses. They're actually a matriarchal animal.
Someone literally posted the same exact comment, right down to the exact phrasing word for word, and got a lot of likes, do bots like this farm likes or something?
@@neoasura That is a known thing that goes on here, yes
Strong woman horse
@@neoasura People stealing other peoples comments for "Internet Fame" has been a thing on UA-cam long before the rise of bots and bot networks though.
Men moment ☕
One thing tho, Barbie saying "I'm not pretty anymore" as her first line from her existential crisis is completely valid. I'm pretty sure other people can relate as well but just from that one line, I completely understood exactly how she was feeling. As a character that's most commonly known for that "picture perfect BARBIE doll appearance," there's now this expectation that's created that not just other people but Barbie has of herself, which eventually becomes a measure that determines and validates her worth and value. The line isn't meant to be taken literally, but as a way to express how Barbie feels. Her mind's probably all jumbled with a blur of different emotions that she feels so overwhelmed that it's numbing. There's so much going on in her head but she can't formulate any words or doesn't even know what to say that can even closely describe the true gravity of her current state. Therefore, the only thing she can think of to say is "I'm not pretty anymore," which can also implicate or be interpreted as a way of Barbie confessing that she doesn't feel good enough and doesn't understand or see her own value.
I was trying to figure out how to say this same thing and you put it so perfectly.
the thing is cinemasins already admitted they are not serious when doing these sins but it has some real sins
And that is the most stupidest thing about being female. Failing and then suddenly being so shallow that it's blamed on good looks. Who cares? Aren't we 'taught' looks aren't everything and yet the biggest insult to give a female is that they are not pretty. As woman, I'd love to tell females they are ugly. Why must beauty be the most important thing? I want to be known for my INTELLIGENCE. Not my looks.
@@roedhuntso your just saying females are females biggest problem, i agree, females are everyones problem. Your all adult children, and the mind seagr you described perfectly captures trying to communicate with a woman, its a chore
@@manaash4316I think it would've been a valid message. But I think he sinned it because that it was a conflict that was put in the film randomly without ever introducing it and then it was never even paid attention to. So it's really a sin about screenplay writing choices than it is about what they are trying to convey. And while I love the film, I couldn't deny that Gerwig tried to resolve too many conflicts in one film which is humorous. But she did manage to balance the rest brilliantly.
I'm so glad they included the "you're beautiful" scene. It was so heartwarming
I don't think the joke about Ken and the female doctor is that he doesn't think doctors can be female, but since every job in Barbieland is an exaggerated characiture of a real-world job, he assumes only a person with a white coat could be a doctor
Nah, it is 100% supposed to be a gender joke. Watch the scene again
You may be right.
I saw it more as; I now learned about patriarchy where only men get 'better' jobs, so now he doesn't believe her that she is in fact a doctor. He just learned that it should be a man in this world. His only refference is Barbie World and anything he learned about the Real world from random books he grabbed. So he just follows what he read and saw; everything being about men.
i think its meant to be that since he noticed things were basically opposite as barbie world then he assumes a 'real' doctor would be a man in the real world and not her. plus he doesn't know or have any knowledge on what doctors do and probably no other barbie does so he probably thinks a white coat is enough. now I'm wondering if doctor barbie would automatically have a real professional doctor's skills if she became human. because if we assume that the job they're given actually gives them those talents then she can probably can.
I mean yeah our modern society is F-CKED UP 😂
I’m a little sad that the “Hi Barbie” sequence at the end didn’t have an “Oh hi Mark”.
And there should have been a "I am Sparticus!" in there.
Or "hello there"
‘Explain to me the mysteries of this woman’s box!’ Somehow my relationship frustrations make it into CinemaSins
(insert college girlfriend joke here)
I thought he'd reference his imaginary college girlfriend 😂
The one sort of plothole or inconsistency for me was,
The explanation for how the Kens took over so easily was that the Barbies had never experienced patriarchy before, therefore they were powerless against it.
But when Barbie and Ken went into the real world, she was Immediately scared and uncomfortable and had all her defences up.
Idk
bc barbie didnt try to influence anyone but ken did. also barbieland's population is like way smaller lmfao
8:04 - Not gonna lie, this moment of back-to-back sin removals really got me.
ok
It was such a mid scene, it's so dumb. My guy is just playing woke bingo
I'm glad that others are also noticing the bizarre misconception of Kate McKinnon being any kind of "ugly," she's actually damn beautiful and I feel like she's not being offered enough roles that showcases this.
First off, I actually don't find Kate McKinnon to be that attractive. Not saying she's ugly, just not attractive. Something about her eyes when she smiles, they kinda bug out in my opinion. Its irrelevant though. My other point is that we don't really know the roles that are being offered to her, we do know however the roles she accepts. So...
@@tiberiushazo6326fair enough beauty is in the eye of the beholder after all.
I think that Kate is fairly attractive, though I suppose that it depends on your personal definition of beauty.
I don't think they would have called her ugly if she was actually ugly.
@@tiberiushazo6326 the point is she’s not ugly
The Barbie Land box that instantly transported Barbie (or any doll-faced doll) to Barbie Land was the original high-rise elevator that was somehow always ready and waiting on any given floor as soon as someone pushed the elevator button.
Yeah that's great but as he sinned...she didnt push any button lol
Huge respect to you for removing two sins for that exchange between Barbie and the Old lady.
21:30 “Bild Lilli”? ok, we’re all supposed to just skate past the fact that you’ve done the research to KNOW this fact?!? Bro…😂😂😂
Love the Preminger reference with his song “how could I refuse” but sad it was an out take. Preminger best Barbie movie villain ever.
Yes! I laughed my butt off though when I heard it
Huh?
I died when I heard it lol
Your wordless sin removals always warm my heart, and the one-two sin removal at the 8min mark cleared my skin, watered my crops, filled my bank account, and brought me a fluffy Golden Retriever puppy named Hermes who also has a little navy blue scarf.
The issue I have with this is it plays it like the real world is reversed and Barbie is a toxic man and Ken is her victim. But then Ken losing in order to say it's NOT real world reversed means that message is conflicted
Exactly it's meta commentary on feminism, masculinity, codependent relationships, humanism and industrial greed
The woke nation enjoyed this movie a lot.
@@kidpuri8589The whole MAGA constituency was offended by this movie because the idea that women don’t need men scares the shit out of you.
@@Antifa_Alexwhy do you think it’s because of that?
@@Antifa_AlexIt’s more like the movie feels like it hates men, sorry not sorry there was a massive vibe throughout.
Okay but Midge was legit terrifying and VERY problematic. Her stomach REMOVED, the baby popped out and you FLIPPED THE BELLY over to make her "not pregnant"😳😳😳😳
Now that's an action figure!
I had her and I loved her lol
I wonder if that means Midge-Barbie could've just not been pregnant whenever. Just pop the baby out and have her constantly mothering a newborn.... okay I guess that's hardly any less creepy.
How is that _problematic_ in the least? No wonder people don't take y'all seriously.
I love comment sections where, no matter how diverse the viewpoints are, still, everybody IS right in one way or the other
Man, I'm still chilling and waiting for Across the Spider-Verse to get a sin video, not for the sins themselves, but to see the deductions.
“They had Kate McKinnon and no sapphic moments?”
Do we need to revisit the high heels v Birkenstocks scene? 🤣
Plus, it's funnier to hear Kate McKinnon drool over Ken's privates.
I love how Mattel cracks on themselves throughout the movie. I laughed so hard in the theater. Ryan Gosling is just too good at being Ken too. 😂
The fact that this is a video big enough to have a premiere
I'm glad they pointed out a lot of my issues with the movie too. I personally didn't care for it. I really, really wanted to love it, but it felt like a lot of ideas and not enough structure. Like a string of Barbie themed skits they loosely strung together to turn into a movie. The plot starts out being about Barbie going to the real world to find the girl corrupting her. Then it suddenly is about Ken finding out about the Patriarchy and bringing it to Barbieland. Then it becomes Barbie liberating the other Barbies and tricking the Kens. Then it's about Barbie having an existential crisis and debating on being human or not. It's just a lot. There's some fun scenes and it did get genuine laughs from me but it's definitely not the movie I thought it'd be. Seems like it's more loved by the masses because it's a movement and not a movie but hey, it got people to the theaters and that's important especially nowadays.
best opinion I've seen about the movie so far
It kinda felt like two or three great movies stuffed into one, which resulted in a bunch of wonderful scenes but made the collective a bit of a narrative mess.
I really enjoyed the movie but honestly yeah you’ve got a point. It definitely wasn’t sure which message/plotline to focus on and it didn’t do any of them quite properly as a result
@@JJHeff That was my thoughts exactly.
@@Hana_H Totally. It felt like they weren't able to stick the landing on any of them because they jumped around too much.
0:53 isn't Barbie able to walk on water because her house is a representation of an actual toy Barbie dream house, and in Barbie dreamhouses there's not any actual water in the pool, that also shows why they don't have walls because the dream houses were designed for kids to play on the inside too.
Whilst I agree with removing a sin for Ferrara's speech, I feel you should have added one for her having to use the uniquely Ferrara superpower of making a speech at people to move the plot forward. When I saw her name in the opening credits I immediately knew she would make a speech at some point, because it seems to be her typecast role.
Meh- if you got it, flaunt it
I really miss you guys doing the behind the sins podcast so I know who wrote the script for each video. It was such an amazing peek behind the curtain and it's the only reason I know CinemaSins isn't just one guy
its not?!?!?!?
@@itzkalateral1494 nope. CinemaSins is made up of a whole team of people. They also run TV sins and Commercial sins. 3 narrators, 8 script writers and a whole team of editors
@@itzkalateral1494 listen to Behind the Sins sometime. It's a peek behind the curtain at the people behind the videos
@@itzkalateral1494 also I see that you are subscribed to markiplier. That means you have good taste lol. I've used him as inspiration a lot for my own content. He's definitely one of the best let's players. Also it looks like you're a fan of Gorillaz. Which means you have really really good taste lol
23:51 The fact that this clip at the end uses a song from “The Princess and the Pauper” for the live action Barbie is amazing and I refuse to believe that it’s just a coincidence. (If my comment doesn’t make any sense to you, “The Princess and the Pauper” was an animated Barbie movie from back in the 2000s and is surprisingly still a good movie to this day.)
The fact he mentions the man & horse book but not the fantastic delivery of "SUBLIME" in the same scene is sin worthy
I'm surprised you didn't mention that if Barbie only walks on water and the mermaids swim in the pool... would Barbie be eternally walking on Dua Lipa's head ??
So not even going to point out that Allen goes all Scot Pilgrim on the construction workers.
If Mattel made a Depression Barbie, Irrepressible thoughts of death Barbie, and Ordinary Barbie, I would buy them all in an instant. This movie was hilarious and deserves all the awards
So you'd reward Mattel for turning human suffering into plastic toys to market depression and thoughts of Death to young girls?!?! The entire point of those fake ads was to highlight that corporations have no ethics and will make and sell anything if we let them....and that it's the experience of living - not owning things that make life worth living.
I love that you didnt even say anything at the "you're so beautiful " scene. It just doesnt need words
I so agree.
My interpretation (big word for it tbh) of the doctor scene was that since he thought men ran everything in the real world, only men could be doctors just like no ken would be a doctor in Barbie Land.
I agree, his ingrained bias shifted bc he thought the real world was the total opposite
22:49 i always thought Rhett and Link would be a good Harry and Marv if they ever remade home alone
Actually pregnant barbie can give birth via C-section i had her as a kid. The baby is inside a dome against the belly. You jus take the dome off.
Which makes the film slightly dark
Ah, the old 'exit via the sunroof' method!
@@the_once-and-future_king. 😂
SAME. My mom didn't know you could take her belly off she was very suprised when I did lol
My theory about the one F-bomb bleep. I think Mattel demanded it; they had to have buy off for the script and insisted that Barbie can NEVER drop an F-bomb. Which is why they added the MATTEL logo on the censor as a subtle protest.
They didn't bleep it in Canada. She fully says fuckers. My christian coworker refused to let her teenage daughter see it because of that (and the use of Bitch). It's also only rated pg here, cuz everything seems to be rated lower in Canada
From what I understand, combining the f-word with mother can't be used below the R rating because of the verb usage.
The fact that Margot Robbie's Barbie gets sold more than any of the other dolls in the movie despite it going entirely against the message this movie has is more egregious than the Mojo Dojo Casa House Ken merch.
shhhhhhh! 😆
I laugh too hard at “That was a cold move to cast Link”. I didn’t notice before and now cannot unsee it 😂
I didn't notice it until rewatching it here and then a second later he mentions it and I swear I was this close to looking it up
I was wondering just yesterday when you’d get round to covering Barbie.
18:51: Yo! Do you even beach, bro? **DING**
16:20 my mum cry laughed at the wall building scene lmao it lives rent free in my head now
21:51 That's a little bit of Douglas Adams humour in my day, thank you.
16:58 that's the point, it's stereotypical barbie. Her entire identity is that she's pretty and perfect, without that she doesn't know anything about interacting with the world.
I am surprised you didn't add a sin for the quite aggressive General Motors sponsorship in this movie
Oh I saw that
8:04 CinemaSins being wholesome 101
At 7:04 when you questioned why they were being printed again-it happens every time you get arrested. Yes, even if it’s the same day. This might vary by state or province but it’s the norm in most police stations. This sin was given in error.
Well, the sin would be just....what finger prints?
Speaking from experience?
I did not know this 😂 I thought was just for movies.
@@jins4200 yes
21:59 "when the human race is wiped out by an asteroid in the year 2141 two weeks before the first interstellar mission is supposed to be launched. As Herman Stanhope stands watching the approaching annihilation of the world, and the neutering of the years of work he put into the interstellar program as its head designer, his last thoughts will be of the irony of space conquering his species just before his species conquered space. "it really does feel like a simulation sometimes", he will think seconds before a giant rock ends not only his life but that stupid idea he just had." that is weirdly specific and funny
I'm guessing the homage to Monty Python and The Holy Grail's horse riding style was too easy?
23:51 I love the usage of dialogue from one of the animated Barbie movies
The shade against Portland is so perfect that I’m sitting here in amused shock. Holy FUCK, CinemaSins, you hit it on the head! God damn, that was just perfect.

🤜🍆
What do you mean We??
@barney7822 thank you for the Robot Chicken reference!
I hope he does a Bonus Round on the word "patriarchy".
Thank you for saying "it could also be a boy" and with such empasis. I hated how the movie skipped boys and centered only girls as their play posibility.
I saw the premiere preview image and mistook it for the actual video. Now how am I supposed to sleep tonight?!
Me too!
The “We have to go back Kate” outtakes makes me laugh every time 😂
Those La La Land references at the end were just golden.
im surprised that he didnt remove a sin for the "what was i made for" scene. brought tears to a lot of people in my theatre.
13:45 it took me a couple times to realize that this was a joke at not being able to see John Cena 😂
I'm only in the comment section to see if anyone commented about that clearly underrated joke.
8:10 yes two sins off without any comments. This is one of my favourite scenes of the movie and this is why I love cinemasins
Gotta love Chris Christie's "get the hell off the beach" at the end. I remember that press conference when Hurricane Sandy was coming.
OmG that one where they equate LA to the rest of the world had me coughing spitting & peeing with laughter..that one was worth a hundred sin points alone🤣🤣🤦🏽♀️😂
Actually, they didn't have the jumpers produced quickly. They set up a pre-order website and shipped them out by the end of September :D Love mine sm
That's why it got a sin
me watching this in my kenough hoodie lol
That Rhett and Link sin was good 😂
The Hudsucker Proxy bit at the end was hilarious, also the very last one with the CSI sunglasses. Perfect levels of niche hilarity!
23:49 ngl, I was not expecting a Preminger reference, but props for doing your homework and 10/10 no notes
12:59 couldn’t agree more. As much as I ADORE this movie, I was really hoping for some rep on this
The two back to back sin removals at the “you’re so beautiful” “I know it” scene actually made me tear up again 😭
The “I’m just Ken” scene is too funny to sin
Beauty standards aren't based on Barbie, Barbie is based on beauty standards because you would want your doll to be beautiful. Otherwise you'll end up with Chucky dolls everywhere.
23:02 “Get the hell off the beach” killed me 😭
6:02 I just noticed the mermaid comes out of her *solid plastic* swimming pool she walked on earlier and never questioned it.
I had no idea that CinemaSins knew that the straight-to-video Barbie movies existed. I might've gasped a little out loud when I heard "It's...a...TEMPorary setback" ❤️❤️
Like how he sinned the only scissoring reference they were able to sneak in.
When was that? I didn't catch it.
the fact you didn’t take a sin off for the ken dance or the depression barbie advert is a sin.
Lol première on the 23th on 2023 and the movie lasts for 23 minutes 😂 cinemasins I frigging love you guys for time stuff like this ❤
The twenty-thirth?
Okay. The addition of Preminger's song from Barbie: Princess and the Pauper in the end/bloopers made my entire day.
OMG the CSI sunglasses riff was amazing!!
Not catching the Space Odyssey reference at the beginning is so upsetting
Oh dayum you are so RIGHT!
Thank you for the preminger reference at the end
8:07 made me tear up in the theater and I STILL don't understand why.
You know he loves a movie when he removes 2 sins back to back
The movie was not even mid
To me the movie was going well until Barbie came back to Barbieland. My criticism is that they made it seem like Ken brought patriarchy to Barbieland, but the thing is Barbieland was impregnated with patriarchy from the start. There is hardly anything more sexist than treating pregnancy as a cause for embarrassment like the narrator did literally in the first 5 minutes. Plus the beauty standards; the whole girl boss vibe (which is a very superficial notion of feminism and one that does not actually challenge the system that exploits women)
See, that's exactly, exactly their point. That's the subtlety of the movie and their exact commentary on Mattel's hypocrisy

I've been following you for 3 years, haven't even watched the video yet, and i already know im going to agree. cinemasins has become my personality at this point
It's disappointing that you didn't sin Barbie for quoting Fight Club when Ken realises he is not his job (Beach), not his house, not his clothes or 'stuff' - then has Barbie actually go further by telling Ken he needs to figure himself out vs relying on her or others to tell him what to do. It's a real pity that Barbie suffers from the same problem as Fight Club that it's anti-consumerism message got lost in the marketing.
you think Mattel produced a movie about one of their most profitable products to convey a message about anti-consumerism?
@@Mordecai478They made a film where Barbie was being hunted by Mattel and the CEO threatened to 'put a women back in her box' while also claiming he was a feminist and just wanted to help women....(while also thinking it was okay to have a all male leadership). The film also suggests Mattel would have no problem marketing 'Depression Barbie' to young girls - as long as someone claims it will sell... It's on par with The Lego Movie's rejection of Lego 'sets' and highlighting that the way the product was marketed goes directly against the spirit of what it was created to do. Barbie's message to Ken and rejection of her 'Barbie Life' was a anti-consumerist message that buying things is not the secret to being 'enough' - but of course Ken is forced into a branded 'Kenough' hoodie that Mattel can then market...in a parody of 'Pinkwashing'/Queerwashing where companies pretend to care about feminism/LTBQTIA+ or other issues all to sell products (but not making any genuine efforts like increasing diversity in hiring/top level jobs).
@@ether4211 Mattel authorized a film because it would make a billion dollars.
@@Mordecai478 well they HOPED it would make a billion dollars while Greta had to work very hard to keep their meddling at arms length...thanks to the Lego movie it became 'cool' for toy based movies to make fun of the companies who own them or else we would not have gotten this kind of film at all.
Great video I’d give it a Ken-out-of-Ken.
