Very astute of Adam to note the “product placement” in the Barbie movie
Adam is a sharp lad
That question stunlocked nick for a few seconds
@@walkerbragg284 Adam still didn't understand why its not product placement after Nick explained it. I thought his people were supposed to be smart.
@@BackwardsFish86 one of my j friends said there's a legend among them that there was one dummy tribe. he confided in me that he was a member of the dummy tribe and it plagued him, even more than his various crimes
You know he got accepted to a law school!
Nick describing the first 20 mins of the movie actually being like the first hour and half is hilarious
Thought it was great at pointing out issues with both men and women's lives. And then THAT scene happened and killed the vibe 🙄
Lol I know, I agreed with all of his points but I’m dismayed by the fact that “the first 20 minutes” is actually just nick liking most of the movie and just not liking the end.
@@TonyBustaronior maybe he did find it funny. Does he not constantly crack jokes about women and getting harassed?
@@TonyBustaroni"there is no way my best friend Nick Mullen meant the actual words he spoke with his own free will, I know him better than that. He has to believe the same values as me or else it means that I am actually a dumbass that thinks his ironic bits are real."
@@thomasingram8713 Oh no, Nick Mullen is definitely not known for being autistically explicit about the point he's trying to make when he's clearly being serious
Man we really need Adam to review more movies he hasn't even seen.
Hahahaa
This was the entire premise of the film podcast I co-hosted for a year.
We need a full on Screeching Halt and Tidbit podcast
he was watching his gf watching it
That’s why we have On Cinema At the Cinema for that
You guys should make the podcast just Nick reviewing movies. He’s got the best takes on the internet.
Yeah, then Adam Friesland should be forced to work the fields and pick strawberries. He should be supervised heavily of course. His back is very weak and I could see him not meeting quota.
@@OwenHooper-mv4fmwill he be forced to go number 2 in the fields like the rest of the imported slave labor
Actually yeah. Nick's Corner. Just let Nick talk about stuff. During normal TAFS episodes.
dm'd him on every social media site for months trying to get the definitive Mullen movie list. Watched every recomendation from the podcasts and they have all been fantastic. we need it!
@@K_-_-_-_KI bet he loved that
Adam is the answer to the question - "Can a strain of weed be Jewish?"
Is Blackmarket weed kosher cuz its basically tax evasion
His hair is frosty.
@@Detroittruckdoctor55 do their commandments not allow tax fraud?
@@Flooding474 they make good accounts for a reason
He’s like 9 levels below vocal fry in the first minute of this clip. I can’t even tell who’s saying what it’s so indistinguishable.
This Barbie is a 400 lb Greek man
Malibu Stavros
What's his name
Stav lost weight?
Maybe Barbies are the 400lb Greek men we meet along the way
Barbie Cue
I didn't see the Ben Shapiro review so I'm going to assume he loved it
I’m imagining him in the theatre hollering and crying in blissful joy. He can’t contain his applause and so begins clapping 35 seconds in to America Ferrera’s hour long speech. “Come on Barbie, let’s go party!”, he cries. Looking down, he notices his assistant dabbing up a spill on his lap. “It’s okay, Ben,” they whisper. “You just got too excited and made some cummies.” Ben blushes.
Shapiro got barbie mixed up with Oppenheimer and was upset that women were allowed to go to parties and have drinks along side with men
@@JohnSmith-eo2yxi never knew hate until you came along.
Nick actually doesn't do it justice. I think he burned a Barbie doll. He references Wagner's Ring Cycle. It's a bad movie review. Ben doesn't know how to assess films
He was doing that shrill little giggle that he did when he was watching Theo Von clips.
Mr Feeny: That’s a nice suit you’re wearing Mr Shapiro. Let me pull it down and you can touch my feet.
juuust like thaat mr shapiro
I saw my sisters big tits and it made me feel sick, so I picked the least attractive thing to jack off to , the scene from The Graduate where you can see mr feenys feet.
@@thriftygroundscores3628”one more thing mr.Shapiro”
ben shapiro isnt interested in mr feeny, feeny isnt a 12 year old boy
It's so funny that Ken's plot is literally one of Nick's "and it's guys only" bits
Dudes rock
@@rickredmanwallart1766 You think that Nick lives in a Casa Mojo Dojo?
That’s a nice little hat you’re wearing Mr. Shapiro
itscalledayamulka
He’s just mad they didn’t cast him to be the Jewish Ken.
I totally read that with Mr. Feeney's voice 😂
Thats it Mr Shapiro, its allll in the neck
@@cap2205 "vvverrry good Mr. Shapiro."
Glad to see Nick is really getting back to his roots of projecting his deeply closeted homosexuality onto every person alive.
"deeply closeted"..?
The prominent moustache aka dickbroom says otherwise☝️
yeah especially since ben isnt a homosexual , hes only into 12 year old boys
@@stonystarkindustrieswhen they're young, it's not gay
@@das_it_mane ya , pedophiles dont wanna have their good names besmirched by inclusion with those dang gays 😠😠😠
The kens get tricked into a proxy war with each other while the barbie establish their barbie centric court system. Its a playbook for modern geopolitics.
Perhaps one day the Kens will be liberated.✊
mind blown
The amount of respect Nick is able to appear to show Adam is incredible
Adam being an unbearable movie snob while knowing nothing about movies and reliably having the worst movie takes of all time is honestly a good running bit
I can’t wait for his Dr. San
i liked this comment, but felt bad about it because i was the 70th comment.
@@janssenmccormick7824 that reminds me: Star Trek II was about whales, right?
@@xyaeiounndon't feel bad, now we are further on the pathway to 420
Cant wait for this on Clangers TV
I saw the movie. I enjoyed it. Yeah that one mom monologue was absolutely a BuzzFeed list of platitudes, it could have been half as long as it was and still made the point. And people in the theater clapped, which was, ya know, kinda gay (I'm gay).
Related, I'm in dire need of a podcast where Nick exclusively impersonates Ben Shapiros commentary on pop culture.
That take is 100% spot on. Just an brainless enjoyable kinda fun dumb movie but that speech was a little much but still valid
Nick would need to talk a lot faster. That Ben has some classic conversational press.
@@Myles_Awayhow was it valid
I think the preachy part was actually supposed to be making fun of the preachy girl boss feminism. But it was hard to take. Generally the movie was satirizing that style of corporate feminism, hence the joke about pregnant barbie.
@@kamwickw933Ben's mom always refills his addy script
adam sits fruitier and fruitier by the episode
Adam and nick are sitting the same way lmfao.
@pumpkin1escobar WRONG. Nick's one leg is touching the ground, the other sits on his knee, a near right angle, to make room for his alpha male balls. Adam's legs are crossed, and lower legs are perpendicular, sitting like a MtF attempting to hide his tiny peen.
Sitting expert over here
Nick's 70s era truck stop glory hole moustache clearly signifies him as the alpha male in the room though.
@@pumpkin1escobarno, Adam is creating a diamond between his legs.
Watching an actual human face say the words is almost surreal
Getting a bunch of journalists to convince me the movie was going to be 2 hours of preachy dog shit only to be pleasantly surprised that it's actually perfectly mediocre was a genius marketing move.
You should be embarrassed for having not noticed the pattern by now. It’s wasn’t even brand new in 2016.
Of course you’re easily convinced by journalists, lil npc
The oddest part of the movie was when some young white guy sexually assaults Barbie minutes after she arrives in the real world and for some reason Barbie goes to jail.
The sexist hecklers being white frat bros really made me smile
Stop noticing
fr they seriously expect us to believe that a woman would go to jail for punching a man? Not in my america.
@@callanc3925 lol yeah that does happen. i mean you can call the cops for some innocuous reason and they show up and shoot your dog. cops suck and they suck at their job
Maybe it was just too expensive to shoot in Dubai
Nick's criticism of Barbie is precisely my issue with The Boys. It's too on-the-nose to be satire and instead comes off preachy.
There’s a shockingly large portion of The Boys fans that actually have no clue that Homelander and his fans are supposed to be representative of MAGA culture.
Nick's take if the movie ended with Ken's installing patriarchy over barbie land it would have been great
Always good to see you ty
Nick being mad that a movie has a beginning middle and end is very funny
Adam having to feel out opinions to see if they're cool first.
"It's cynical corporatism and product placement, right? Is that the cool opinion to have, or....?"
"First 20-30 minutes" proceeds to describe the entire film up till just before climax lmao
Im ready for Nick to start collecting vintage Barbies now.
Im not a cinephile, or smart or anything, but going to see that film, I thought it was pretty good. The comedy definitely kept it afloat so the message didnt get grating or forced.
I also find something really funny about Ken becoming a full blown alpha male, great writing on their part.
You summed it up perfectly with, "I'm not smart," but thanks for admitting honestly you're the demo for this movie, I was so confused who it was made for!
@@zacharyharbridge9231 i know they look similar but it's important to note that smarmy and smart aren't the same thing
im gay
From what my room-temperature IQ could piece together from reading articles about the film, I think it was intended to recuperate the general consensus of the IP held by people in their 20s to 30s. Maybe I'm just making things up but I'm pretty sure I read an article where some higher up from Mattel explicitly stated that the film tested well with mothers. Their end goal isn't to sell more dolls but things like barbie xboxes and such.
@zacharyharbridge9231 not for whiny man-children, I think.
The message is the whole gucking problem. It's feminist misandry garbage.
Finally, I can have an opinion on the Barbie movie
The Barbie movie was a MGTOW manifesto. Ken realizes he spent his life simping for Barbie and that left him empty and unfulfilled. Ken sees how he needs to live his life for himself.
Nick is too smart for the modern comedian/podcasting scene
His fans constantly praising him is what's holding him back
I didn't like the film because there weren't enough scenes with Ken being gay.
Many people are saying this
"yeah cus girls drool" Adam has such a way with words
Tbh it’s a pretty good summary of Ben Shapiro’s whole beef with the movie
I totally agree with Nick and how they gave up on the mother and daughter relationship. I really like how they set up the emotional tension between the daughter and the mom, but they just eventually dropped the whole topic.
At least they stayed away from the classic “a boy and his dad” that every movie does
@@FrederSnorlaxactually if it turned out that the girl playing with barbie was in reality a boy having issues with his dad that might have made for a more interesting story than the mother daughter one.
Enjoying the centre left commentary
This is actually an amazing review
The most charismatic podcasters I have seen in my life
oh of course ben shapiro didnt like barbie . it wasnt about a 12 year old boy .
When everyone said the Barbie movie was overly political, I was really expecting the plot was going to be about Barbie becoming a full on white nationalist, but I guess this is interesting too.
Lol the ending:
Barbie: actually neither of us have genitalia.
Construction Worker: oh okay... but you still have a mouth!
😂😂😂
Other construction worker "I got a knife"
damn nick makes the first 20 minutes of this sound pretty interesting
i loved how in the end when Barbie wants to become a human the creator-god-lady is like "but first i have to show you what that means" but then she just shows her a montage of cute moments between moms and daughters.. the whole premise of this scene makes zero sense unless she's shown the negative sides of being human. this is not how this trope works lol...
The people who wrote this are antinatalist, dude.
what’s up with the ‘Jeep Wrangler - Barbie Edition’ link in your podcast description?
I just watched it last night. Fuck nick hit the nail on the head with this one
Ken should have pulled a copy of 12 rules for life off the bookshelf.
Hey sound guy can you kick up the mix a coupla ticks thanks
I love adams ben shapiro impression. top notch!
the barbie fake controversy was just Female Ghostbusters all over again, the only difference was the film wasnt a complete disaster
Funnily enough, the funniest character in both movies is a guy.
Dudes rock.
Not a commercial disaster but a horribly written movie.
Duh it's a movie about little girl toys but it tried to be smart and meta for adults and everything about that aspect of the movie and its message was incompetent self-contradictory nonsense.
@@bigol9223 stop investing mental energy in disposable media, it doesnt matter
@@BIacklce I heard good things and wanted to like it.
You're probably as funy as the hosts of this podcast. @@thepouchka
When did rogan get glasses and change his studio?
Nick has just said the phrase "Barbie constitution"
Nick looking like Dennis Raider in the 70s - edited
I guess nick didn’t mind Mr. Mistoffelees in this one.
I like how my best friend complimented "the first 20 minutes", which is actually the 1st hour of the plot.
Very funny and well directed movie (even if it becomes a car/ rollerblade commercial/ the monologue that was directed at liberal supervisor moms).
I'm gonna say that was about 2/3rds of the movie
No, Nick is MY best friend.
Very funny and well directed movie (except all the parts where it isn’t)
The Ken stuff was great, the heavy handed "woe is me, it's so hard being a woman" stuff was a drag.
Wahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
Boohoo, cry cry cry
Bay city is better
this is 100% how i felt about the movie. it was cool in the beginning but then it got super messy with forced plot. and some of the characters were introduced into the movie too late for me to care about them. as a Women the second half was hard to sit through because it felt like it was trying to be relatable and poignant to all women but it was, as the guy in the hat said, trite buzzfeed feminism. ken was funny though
Ben would have enjoyed it more, but the image of Ken triggered the memory of having to show the police on a doll where Mr. Feeny touched him.
This is probably one of the most level headed critique of the film.
I think I will stick with foreign films.
Said it better than I could
This is my favorite episode of Siskel and Ebert
C*mtown: "I'm gay and my dick is small"
TAFS: "I finally watched the Barbie movie"
The difference being… 😉😘
It was funny that the kens were just legit second-class citizens(if at all) and by the end of the movie they went back to being that
That was the main part I had an issue with. It seemed like they were building up something with how the Ken's were literally objectified accessories for their respective barbies, and then that kind of went nowhere.
They live in barbieland though, they are a toy invented to be an accessory to barbie. Their role in barbieland isn’t modelled after the real world. They are behaving out of character for their role as supporting characters in barbie’s life so in the end they go back to normal
genuinely the best review i've seen of it
The funny thing is having not watched it, nick could be doing a bit here and i wont know till its available illegally
"the first 20 minutes" lmao thats like 90 minutes into the movie
Id love to see a gritty barbie origin story where barbie is just a street worker in the throws of heroin withdrawal and suffering from mental illness. Im also happy to be gay
those look like comfortable chairs.
ahh klaus barbie dolls were the best, nostalgia!
This should've been 30 more minutes
Nick casually saying it should have been a pilot for the Barbie tv show lol
You guys are awesome, keep it up, RIP Stav force-laughing over all audio.
"and this what they wanna do. And thats what they're gonna do to you, and this is what they want
More Mullen movie reviews
To be fair thats the first hour and half he's describing here.
Why is Hollywood slipping modern feminism into children’s movies ?
Ben saw a woman doing whatever she wanted without supervision and had a fit
And rightfully so
“Yeah”
“Yeah”
Even in the Barbie movie Dudes Rock
I cant believe adam didnt smash nick for going to see the Barbie movie.
Nick is what Roger Ebert always wanted to be
Skinny, tall, and not stricken with cancer?
@@alexavila7152 mostly gay
Ben Shapiro is the human embodiment of that “autistic screeching intensifies” meme
No, he's the meme of himself as a kid playing violin. You can't even picture Ben screaming. It's impossible. Too robotic
lets get down to business
to defeat, the kens
It’s a milk toast take on patriarchy and woman hood but that doesn’t mean it’s not fun. It maybe does tread the line between preachy and shit satire but i don’t think it’s meant to be made for adults looking for nuance. I took it as an elementary satire that aimed to engage young girls on what it is to be female etc. Doesn’t have to be much deeper than that.
R.I.P Ronaldo Fink Mullen
_Barbie goes to a MAGA rally_ would have been a great movie
5:35 - When the interviewer gets bored out of his mind, but remembers he's gotta keep it rolling
this show is actually very funny
That’s a very cute hat you’re wearing Mr. Shapiro. What do you call it?
Somehow Nick Mullen has the best take on this film. It's not bad, and the politics of it are fairly bland and inoffensive to any nornal person, but the satire stops really working after a while and it just becomes a formulaic movie with script issues. It definitely has some funny shit in it though.
Preachy feminism aside, the movie still was a disjointed mess. Nick is right. The beginning was well done.
i like that they are embracing the fact they look like they hang out at the local school rather than straying from that and getting jobs.
So what it sounds like is that ken was dragged along his whole existence and despite doing everything barbie wanted she still left him so he bro'ed out and they conquered the whole place
Also I love how every article calls barbie land a feminist utopia, but ultimately it's a matriarchy when men only live to serve women, and when they leave they lack any direction because women where made to be their only purpose in life.
WHO!? let the barbies out???
‘The first 20 minutes is gif’ describes the first hour
better version: racist kramer vs seinfeld kramer
the movie rules, it's funny as hell
My mum’s (who’s a stay at home wife in her 50s) review of the movie - “worst movie I’ve ever seen. The first twenty minutes it was just them saying ‘hi Barbie, oh hi Barbie, hi skiing Barbie.’ Then they go to the real world and it was kinda funny and then they go back to Barbie land and just nothing happens and it’s about them getting own back on the Kens.” 😂😂😂
Ben Shapiro wears a Google contact lens that has the Robert Mapplethorpe biopic starring Matt Smith playing on a loop.
“If it were up to me it would be a picture of a penis” it’s quotes like this that have kept me a fan all these years 😂😂😂😂
what tf is this show? haha. It's like watching two affable but bored dads forcing a conversation while waiting for the soccer match to end.
theres a difference between satire and making a point in a funny way and barbie was the latter
