      To be fair to the animators (not the studios tho) the riggers+other artists on these movies were probably paid peanuts and put on insane crunch for a project they may not have been super passionate about. Alex is animating stuff he cares about and probably does work on crunch due to algorithm but has a lot more freedom in his schedule+balancing. Almost like happy animators in good environments make better art. (that sarcasm isn't at you, it's at the industry)

    The Barbie diaries was my favorite thing to watch as a kid. I used to run home after school everyday to rewatch it. I swear it looked better on my TV in the early 2000s. I wonder where that DVD ended up. 💁🏾‍♀️ I thought it was the Barbie version of A Cinderella Story with Hillary Duff and Mean Girls. It was the first time I really saw Barbie as the underdog.

      The average DVDs back then didn't have the greatest resolution, and neither did most of the TVs themselves. Honestly the fuzziness may have genuinely made it look better by hiding some of the harsher/rougher details and errors.

    Just a quick reminder or note.
    Barbie herself is an actress and ‘the twelve dancing princesses’, ‘princess and the pauper’ or any other movies she isn’t named ‘Barbie’ are movies she plays in. Then there are Barbie movies like ‘A fashion Fairytale’ or ‘A perfect Christmas’ are about her private life as Barbie. ‘The Barbie diaries’ counts to this as well.

    The fact that Alex is mostly right about the hair animation bit, the hair was the reason they hired that animation studio, bc In most of the other Barbie movies(esp at the time) the hair did not move at all.
    context, Mattel was trying to compete w/ bratz and its series, which was made by a different animation company. So Mattel hired them for the Barbie diaries and made it similar to bratz. So that's why the hair is animated like that.

    Another Barbie move that really departs from the Barbie formula is the MyScene film Jammin in Jamaica. It technically stars Barbie but the frankly large cast of side characters have a prominent role in the film. It’s so chaotic, drama fueled, has some incredible original songs. Plus it’s more “mature” since it comes from the MyScene franchise. It’s also in 2D so it’s a different style

      The animation is Mo-Cap, like in Polar Express, but with no money for some that cots big bucks, so it’s such a bland look with realistic moments. But I think the reason why they seems alive, is because this was that Mattel VS Bratz era, so they were trying to copy them until they could get the rights (despite they had no reason to have them, other than the guy who created them worked for Mattel when he made them, but never pitched them). The cutaways and the hair animation was obviously inspired by Bratz and while Bratz has iffy animation as well, you can’t say they aren’t expressive and alive compared to say like one of the early Barbie films. It’s just very obvious it was that time they wanted to get money like Bratz, which is ironic, since Barbie pretty much has been stealing from other dolls since day one.

    I feel that this is the reason why so many people like Barbie movies, its the pure comedy of them that you just don't get in regular teen movies. The fact that it also suddenly becomes psychological horror all of a sudden 😂😂.
    Also, I recommended doing Barbie and the Secret Door (not sure if I'm correct) and Barbie Charm School.

    This might not be the most decent Barbie movie, but the soundtrack of this movie was my favorite! ❤

    PLEASE DO BARBIE AND THE DIAMOND CASTLE NEXT!!!!!!!!!!! Cannot emphasize how crazy that movie is but it was my whole childhood. Rewatching it is quite a trip and I would LOVE to see your reaction to it!!!!!

    “What about this bracelet?”
    “That comes with a diary!”
    “How about this one?”
    “That one comes with the nuclear codes!”

    I am soo happy Alex actually took the time out to watch this movie 🤣🤣. It's a gas. I loved it when I was little but I always wondered why the animation had to be like that. The songs were fire tho. I vote Barbie Magic of Pegasus next!
