it feels like such a weird decision to give your movie such a blatant feminist message and then focus so much of the movie's plot, music, merchandising, and marketing on the male antagonist that's meant to represent patriarchy and toxic masculinity.
Ryan Gosling has released ‘KEN: THE EP’ featuring 4 versions of “I’m Just Ken”:
1. I’m Just Ken (Merry Kristmas Barbie)
2. I’m Just Ken (In My Feelings Acoustic)
3. I’m Just Ken (Purple Disco Machine Remix)
4. I’m Just Ken
i understand their logic, im sure for everyone behind the movie it's rlly not that deep and they just had fun creating kens character and he's become the stand out of the movie so they decided to release merch to meet the demand for it but it still rubs me the wrong way!!!
always loved that felicia was the only one in campfire with a somewhat practical outfit, like you can tell she goes camping all the time and she loves the outdoors. the other girls clearly just came along to show off their cute lil camping outfits and pjs.
like is the downgrade in quality purely just to save money? are kids today just not interested in playing w more intricate and mature looking fashions? are the dolls fashions just a reflection of how disposable fashion has become in recent years? just makes me wonder...
maybe it's just the screenings but ive always thought yasmin looks so uncomfortable in these lines ... like she looks like she'd rather be doing literally anything besides wearing these outfits.
Okay my sweet friends! Please share your doll collections, big and small, in the replies and I’ll retweet!
Share pets, other collections, etc if you want too!
