President Barbie
Angela Merkel barbie
Just when I was feeling some kind of optimism and hope we get this news.
Barbie is coming to the big screen.
Ugh.
Universal finally got Mattel to make a deal. Mattel has held onto the brand for a long time (50 years), and now that there are so many high concept movies being made out of characters they probably felt that the time was right to get in the game.
Wonder who will write the script? Hope they update her enough so that she doesn’t lead with her boobs, and that she can actually bend her knees and lower her heels.
I am very mixed about Barbie. I hate that Barbie is the concept we are all pitted against. I was one of the girls who destroyed her Barbies, but they have created some aspirational Barbies which can help girls dream. Here’s to hoping that we see films with Barbie characters like Angela Merkel and President Barbie and not princess Barbie.
