Barbie was so an adult level film. How that script survived and was released is the story I want to hear because it is both honest about what it is and it was a genius method of marketing to the Alphas generation.
I get the feeling that Hasbro knew what Barbie could mean in discourse and decided to perform well enough in that space rather than let the Internet do it for them.
You don’t pick a filmmaker like Gerwig and expect a movie that doesn’t touch on being a woman growing up.

Mattel is the company you mean.
Although Hasbro also makes a shit ton of toys!
