    As Lemmy’s resident Barbie expert, that’s fake news.

    In Barbieland, they are called “brine prawns”.

    “Barbie”, now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services.

      So… are you still saying you won’t do a sequel or have you caved to billions of dollars’ worth of pressure?

        That’s Academy Award winning actress Margot Robbie and she does not cave to money.

        But a sequel would be cool…

          One hopes not since Gerwig likely wouldn’t be involved and Robbie and Gosling didn’t sign a multi-picture deal.

          I think a sequel with a really good idea behind it might be cool, but some stories should be one and done and I don’t really know that any more needs to be said with live-action Barbie.

          Meanwhile, Mattel has licensed 14 other properties for movies.

          One of them is Uno. Really.

            Yeah, I’m not against sequels in principle. Sometimes I just want to have another trip to whichever world the movie takes place. Barbie though… I love that movie, but I really don’t see any way to make any sort of sequel and have it be good.
