  • Barbie myscene's Jammin' in Jamaica is really good, actually! Maybe.
    The music, the animation, the skip bop boop--this movie has it all. Join us for a deep dive into Jammin' in Jamaica's lopsided but surprisingly elegant chiastic structure. Is this sheltered recession-era darling just for kids, or is Andrew at the tip of the literary greatness iceberg?
    Go easy on me lol I'm learning a new editing software and haven't done a lot on camera

    Andrew: asking the most bs questions
    Tori: “…it’s not that deep”✨

    To think, that the story is more or less a way to explore your own perspective of the world and the characters offered to you based on your preexisting experiences, while also, by collaborating, coming to appreciate others' perspectives and gaining a greater insight into their own experiences.
    Almost like playing with dolls.

      If it were really like playing with dolls I would have been chewing on something

    The message of the Barbie Movie is that the world is burning and we can all die tomorrow a story as old as time

      No love for Balzac here :(
      To be fair, she could’ve said anything and I’d believe her. Never read Balzac; I’m more of a Zola guy

    If anyone wants anymore Jammin in Jamaica analysis in their life, the youtuber Li Speaks has a video on her channel about the entire my scene line, and a sizeable chunk of it is dedicated to this film. She provides some of the context from the minisodes, and also examines the film through a sapphic lense. If anyone wants to check it out, there are time stamps in the video that should make the analysis easy to naviagte to if you want to skip the stuff about the dolls and other films. Highly recomend it!

    Okay, so I've been thinking about this for a while, and while there might be a point in this movie "not being that deep", I kind of have to disagree. I doubt anyone who has gotten any kind of education in movie making or storytelling of any kind hasn't read about different ways to structure a story. The question, in my opinion, isn't so much if this structure was there or not, but rather if it was put there intentionally or subconciously.

      Ooh you know I just kind of ran with the assumption it was intentional but come to think of it if you crank out a million of these, maybe it just comes naturally

      @@sbu_englishclubI’m kinda glad it isn’t about the newest movie. I haven’t had any interest in Barbie’s full stop.
