Barbie. Oppenheimer. Barbenheimer. It’s more than a meme. It’s a legend. Greta Gerwig’s Barbie and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer premiering on the same day in July 2023 is the perfect opportunity to compare these two wildly different films, and in doing so actually uncover some surprising similarities between the movies and the film-makers behind them.
Get ready for BARBENHEIMER.
🎞️ BARBIE (also known as Barbie: The Movie) is a 2023 fantasy comedy film directed by Greta Gerwig. Based on the Barbie fashion dolls by Mattel, it is the first live-action Barbie film. The film stars Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken, who go on a journey of self-discovery after their expulsion from the utopian Barbie Land. Appearing in supporting roles are America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, Rhea Perlman, and Will Ferrell. 🎞️
🎞️ OPPENHEIMER is a 2023 epic biographical thriller film written, produced, and directed by Christopher Nolan. It is based on the 2005 biography American Prometheus by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin about J. Robert Oppenheimer, the theoretical physicist who helped develop the first nuclear weapons on the Manhattan Project. The film stars Cillian Murphy as the title character, with a supporting ensemble cast including Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., Florence Pugh, Josh Hartnett, Casey Affleck, Rami Malek, and Kenneth Branagh. 🎞️

Thanks so much for watching!
Openheimer then Barbie.
Yes.
whichever one is first in that afternoon/evening
and looking at the cinema's timetable, looks like barbie will come first
@sharlin648 a person of culture I see
I think this phenomenon goes to show that Hollywood NEEDS more original movies. Audiences are sick of the constant reboots. I think that’s part of the reason why people are so excited for these two movies.
that’s a very good point. there’s no number at the end of either of these films! and the other examples shown were all sequels of really old IP. let’s hope someone in Hollywood is taking note
I thought it was low iq
Yes...
That didn’t really work out for Tenet, did it… the reason they keep rebooting and remaking is because it’s what people want. Whenever something original comes along no one cares and no one watches them. So no that’s not the answer.
@@RedFail1-1tenet released during the pandemic? So no, it's failure doesn't prove anything.
Summing it up, Barbenheimer made Oppenheimer trendier and Barbie taken more seriously than originally expected.
A great summary i must say
I never new it was a meme. I and other nerds were already waiting for Oppenheimer since we first saw the trailer
@@TheGameMakeGuy be fr
@@livebungusreaction thats the think, nerds as I or you and your group were expecting oppenheimer, but the majority of the world werent, with barbieheimer this changed
true, the studio behind Oppenheimer didn't even advertised it that much, it was the public that made memes that did it for them.
Barbie and Oppenheimer totally surprised me at how tonally parallel and existential they are. Both really posed ideas about what it means to human-which means to be a creature bound for death-and what happens when a person becomes an idea/figurehead and the legacy they leave behind.
Who ever expected Barbie to start thinking about death ? (a major turning point in the movie).
Exactly the way you described
Oh whatever! 😂 Love it though
Honestly, before I went to the Barbie film I really struggled to imagine how a historical drama about the Butcher of Lyon could turn out so colourful and whimsical
and they both featured men and horses.
Watched Barbie to understand the problems with society...
... Watched Oppenheimer to understand the solution.
Take my updoot good sir
Are you a fascist?
Hold on a sec-
wait....
'The Final Solution to the Barbie Question'
Barbie can be a physicist, but can Oppenheimer be a Barbie? 😂
That’s gonna be the title of a top tier shitpost once clips of the movies come out
He kinda was.....
No but he can "...am become" Barbie
can Barbie be an oppenheimer?
@@halleyconjecture yes
Loved this line in Barbenheimer
"I have become ~a barbie girl, living in my own world~ the destroyer of worlds"
Can we get a like from OP on this one please it's really good.
Its I am become
@@xxxx-rn3yuAnd also, it's "a Barbie girl in a Barbie world"
MISSED A LAYUP!
"I have become the destroyer of Barbie World"
the fact this is kind of lore accurate makes it 1000 times better
I took my daughters to see Barbie and Oppenheimer was playing next door to us. I admit, in my opinion Barbie was entertaining. But the sounds of Oppenheimer reverberating through our theater had me very curious to watch it. So in some form or fashion, I definitely experienced the Barbiheimer phenomenon 😂
I know that feeling. When The Dark Knight Rises came out, I fell in love with it so much after the first cinema viewing that I went to see it a second time the same week (with a different friend group to hide the fact 🙈). Some week later I'm back in the cinema watching another movie, feeling the bass reverb from the truck / car / motorcycle scene from the movie theater below the one I was in. I was almost longing to see it a third time, but then I'd have to check myself into some mental asylum. Long story short, I know the reverb feeling of another movie 🍿
I’m calling it now: we’re going to see a LOT of Barbie/Oppenheimer-themed couples costumes this Halloween!
im single so i honestly might wear the rollerskate leotard outfit over a suit LMAO
And a lot of fnaf cosplays
Picture this wives in a black suit and husbands rocking the ken get up
Oppenheimer for giggles and Barbie for philosophy
I agree I think the fun little explosions in Oppenheimer will lighten the mood after watching the dark gritty barbie movie
@@Walleyedwosaik You joke, but all tht pink is literally draining me of will to live...
Word.
@@mikek9297then you haven't reached the stage were constant tragedy makes you want the barbie movie
Based.
Oppenheimer is just a movie about a dude and his dude bros making some silly bomb, it's just men walking around, talking in close up and maybe eventually an explosion.
Barbie is the in depth character exploration, break down and subversion of one of cultures most iconic toys.
I think Barbue floating from the top floor to the bottom floor because no child used the stairs is such an insane attention to detail
I did.
I knew kids that did…they usually had them slide down though, lol.
@@crackle6875
I was one of those kids. Though I played with Polly Pockets more than Barbie. I was actually more of a fan of Barbie movies and CD games than I was of the dolls.
Yes!! I’m a biochemist but I also love Barbie. “Hi Barbie!” As I placed her in her corvette and the car only came waist high on her body.
My boyfriend, not me, actually requested us to go see both on the same day! 😂
barbie was way more serious and cinematic than i thought. they had beautiful shots and imagery that was totally unexpected.
I'm not totaly surprised Greta Gerwig is a true a genius.
The old woman smiling on the bench reminds me of my mother and how much I miss her. Tears for days...
My only wish with the Barbenheimer is that it makes filmmakers and producers realize the importance of practical effects, real production design, real costumes, real makeup and hairstyling. We have already had too many CGI messes lately with Marvel, The Flash or Cats.
💪🧠👍

producers will never realize shit lol
This meme is so adorable tbh. I love, love, love when opposite concepts join up like this. Its like Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing.
Consooooooom!
@CianaCorto how dare people like movies. This is probably the least consoomer thing imaginable.

They always do that. They never say anything negative about other productions because they never know what the power dynamic is going to be next week. The person they trash today could be the person hiring them tomorrow.
Lmao nerd
these circlejerk feelgood moves are meh squared. because its WEIRD how they never say anything negative.
itS FREAKING UNNATURAL🤤🤩👍
Barbie was a great piece of satirical social commentary. I genuinely think if you go in with an open mind, you will enjoy the film.
Imma be honest I was expecting it to have a different story
Lotsa people thinking its the usual ~2019 generic ultra-feminist movie and missing the "satire" point. Would be hilarious if this became the next Starship Troopers, and it really seems so.

@@moshei210 that's bad writing, not satire
I actually ended up watching Barbie first and it gave Oppenheimer a special weight that I don't regret. Loved seeing these back to back! It really reminded me of why I loved going to the cinema growing up.
Tbh that might have been the better viewing order. Still both good films.
@@Bax365 Yea, I think it was the optimal order. You started out laughing and partying. Then finish philosophical. Both excellent films nonetheless! And really engaging conversational experiences.
YES. in a way, these are "twin films", but twins who were separated at birth and grew up in completely different worlds, and now they realize they aren't so different after all. well done!
This logic makes absolutely ZERO sense. These two movies could not be further apart lol. Are people this impressionable these days? One YT video and everyone just jumps on the band wagon. Crazy.
Like in "Barbie : the princess and the pauper" lol
@@Jjjbb-kb6hobabe wake up, new Barbenheimer lord just dropped
@@ZMACxx comparing it to twins is accurate, similar structure but contrasting personality
🎶 Im just like youuu, youre just like me 🎶 😂😂
Also gotta love how friendly both teams are towards each other.
Florence Pugh was in Greta Gerwig's Little Women, of course she's going to support Barbie too because she's friends with Greta
It doesnt make any sense for one crew to slate the other, its just bad optics. Looks much better to encourage people to see both. Better for the films, better for the cinemas and better for the crews. $$$'s
People respect creativity and passion.
It's uninspired cash grabs that stick to what's safe that everyone is feeling tired of.
They are about the only 2 "normal" films this year.
But Nolan did not buy tickets for barbie
"For i am a barbie girl, destroyer of barbie worlds"
- Barbenheimer
SPOILERS FOR BOTH MOVIES:
Another thing worth mentioning is that both are movies about legacy.
Oppenheimer initially believes that the atomic bomb will be this beautiful revelation of all his theories and a way to save the world. Barbie initially believes that everyone loves Barbie and that they've fixed all the problems in the world. But they both learn they're wrong. Barbie is now perceived as a weapon for systematic patriarchy and a tool for making women feel bad about themselves, and the atomic bomb is...the atomic bomb.
What started out as innocent for both Oppenheimer and Barbie has now become an existential nightmare for both of them. They were created to help people, not hurt them. So they try to undo what they've done, which as we know, is impossible. You can't unmake the atomic bomb, you can't get rid of the knowledge to make such a weapon, you can't undo what happened to Nagasaki and Hiroshima. And you can't unmake Barbie, you can't fix the years of systematic oppression, capitalist greed, and psychological damage that this doll has done to young girls' self-esteem.
Two scenes I found powerful in both movies was their respective revelation of this. Oppenheimer is confronted with photos of the victims of the Hiroshima bombing. A young girl, who is basically Barbie's target demographic, rips apart everything Barbie has come to represent to her face. And neither of them can take it. Oppenheimer has to look away, Barbie starts tearing up through her forced smile. Barbie even says something that applies to both films; "We failed them."
The fact that this whole Barbenheimer thing started out as a way for corporations to dick around filmmakers, but has now become a really nice way of appreciating filmmaking in all of its forms, is amazing to me. The fact that there are two great films that tell similar stories but in radically different ways is amazing to me. What started out as a rivalry has become a celebration of the medium, and that's really cool.
This is the perfect comment. I'm an existentialist first and that's why both of these appealed to me.
Barbie was the existentialist nightmare I knew it to be from the trailers. There was an undertone of tragedy behind the plastic smiles and everything around her. It flat out admits that the goal of Barbie failed to become the dream of liberated and equal girls who would become women that are the equal of their male peers.
The worst part is that so many people that sub to this person have already been poisoned to see pink and girly and bark like a dog. Barbie is an admission of the failure of feminism's goal and what is needed to move forward with both men and women as equals.
@@N0tsaved Thanks so much! I loved both films for different reasons (I’m probably discussing Barbie more because I was a Barbie fan growing up.) What I think this movie does so well though is that it addresses the existentialism with honesty, rather than with optimism or cynicism.
My favourite moment of the movie was the moment on the bench, because I just think it’s the perfect response to the movie’s nihilism. Barbie is just sitting there, look at everything, looking at humanity, in all of its happiness and sadness and complicated beauty.
Then she sees the old woman (played by costume icon Ann Roth.) All this time, she was afraid of death, of growing up, of getting cellulite, of changing into something that isn’t perfect.
But Barbie sees the old woman and she thinks she’s beautiful. The old woman is the embodiment of all those things Barbie was afraid of, but those things make her beautiful. And better yet, she knows those things make her beautiful.
Because that’s what being a woman is. Hell, that’s what existence is. It’s growth, it’s change, it’s getting cellulite, it’s ugly, it’s having bad days and bad thoughts, becoming weird, being afraid and uncomfortable but it’s also about being happy, becoming beautiful, enjoying your time with other people, loving other people and loving yourself.
And the same thing could be said for Barbie. She’s over sixty years old but also in her early twenties. She has every job in the world and no job at all. She’s a sexualised object but has no genitals. She comes in every shape and size, but will forever be blonde and skinny. She’s every woman’s dream and every woman’s nightmare. She’s perfect but as imperfect as they come.
Existence is as contradictory as Barbie herself. And that’s beautiful.
Also, in both cases, it's debatable whether either character did the harm they think they did. That girl was from a very progressive family who goes to school in a very progressive area with very progressive teachers. Of course she'd be taught about the patriarchy, even if it doesn't exist, as evidenced by Ken failing to find jobs in the Real World.
And Oppenheimer opposes the bomb, despite it ending World War 2.
Underrated comment
This may sound nuts but Barbie & Oppenheimer are not so different. Barbie has always been about the idealized life of a post WWII wife & Oppenheimer is about the idealized life of a WWII intellectual hero.
Great observation, not nuts at all, except for how neat it all is lol
It’s true! And they both also speak of their expectations to invent or help their society.
The Barbie movie is 98% undisguised misandry. It has almost nothing to do with Barbie.
@@DonHavjuanI'm literally a man but I loved barbie. You're just sensitive af
Yeah, that sounds nuts!
as a young woman who religiously played with barbie dolls at a young age and is currently a geeky cinephile, i think i can safely say i am the EXACT target audience of barbenheimer
Hey can i ask if u don't mind, what did u do with the dolls exactly like i always hear people say play with dolls and stuff but what do u actually do with em? I'm sorry I grew up alone at my uncle/aunts house without siblings or anything so don't really get this..
@@shan_2933 hope you don't mind me answering, but it's essentially the same thing that many people did with action figures or other toys, using their imagination, it's just that many young girls adored them as they felt so authentically girly. I had a huge bin of Barbies that my mom would buy in bulk at the thrift store, and a playset that I got for my birthday one year, and all day long It would just be me, my Barbies, and my imagination. I would send my Barbies on space missions, and then they were jungle explorers, and then fashion designers and politicians, they were everything I wanted them to be. It was my childhood mind putting my thoughts into reality, and for the younger me that reality was my Barbies :) I would make props out of cardboard and make up storylines that I felt fit the doll and often kept the storyline going over several days, it was the best. I hope that makes sense!
I mummified my Barbies 🙃
noticing that the barbie outfits come from like classic barbie toy sets and stuff feels kinda cool. I can't really recall anything that a girlygirl might have in movies that has that level of care. mostly male targeted stuff seems to have those easter egg thinks where female targeted stuff kinda seems surface level. idk kind of a nice effort. I also can't recall the last time something so girly has gotten that full hollywood treatment with a big time director like Greta.
Same!!!
Barbie is actually so good and that’s from a girl who hated Barbie. That craziest part is that I didn’t even know I hated Barbie Dolls until the movie (I’m actually I just hated what people made Barbie out to be!)
Go watch Barbie, it’s so refreshing in such a deep philosophical way for both men and women!
Help me out my friend is saying that movie shows inequality between men and women but I don't think so, is it true?
@@noskillreal Think for yourself and form your own opinion
@@ModeratelyCool Well, I haven't seen it yet. Okay, I wanna know your opinion. Tell me.
@@noskillreal haha well since you asked I'll try not to spoil too much. On the surface the film is a silly movie about a toy going into the real world, but underneath its about the reversal of gender roles. It does show inequality between men and women, but with the men being oppressed by the women and trying to fight for their rights. Essentially, men are put in the place of where women have been for centuries (excluded from positions of power and treated as second class citizens). I think a lot of the controversy started because most of the philosophy is subtle and some people would rather blame the other gender than put themselves in another person's shoes. Go into this movie with an open mind and you will find a surprisingly deep, funny, and dare I say dystopian story. Go into this movie expecting identity politics and you will be too offended to look deeper.
TL;DR Watch Barbie with an open mind
@@ModeratelyCool Thanks alot for explanation, have a great life.
Out of all the male commentary channels I've seen analyze Barbie, your video is absolutely my favorite and seems to best process the point of Barbie and why it's so special to a predominantly female audience. Thank you for considering a point of view different from your own life experiences and accrediting the movie with the touches that are beautiful to girlhood and drives home the social nuance and theme it holds.

@@Ok-tl1dv On civilians yes, but not if you count testing.
EDIT: We call it a "launch" whenever a brand new Boeing aircraft is being flown open to the public regardless of how many test flights it has had, so I guess that's what was meant.
It's so exciting to see original films doing great. We definitely need more original films in an industry full of sequels and reboots.
Original???
Coming to this video after watching Barbie first then Oppenheimer, i can happily report back that there is no perfect order to watching these to cinematic masterpieces, they both are unique and beautiful in their own right but they are both very existential and will leave you needing a moment to recuperate. 10/10 will be watching again
Seeing Oppenheimer for the visual fun, watching Barbie for the deep profound meaning
Severely underrated comment
@@janaehari53agreed
Just came out from cinema watching Barbie (not watched Oppenheimer yet).
Barbie surprised me and this might turn out to be true.
MEEEE
I thought it would be the opposite!

Why do women care so much about what they wear? They are so insecure and superficial
Especially with the strikes happening, Barbenheimer might be the last time we’ll see such dedication to marketing and promoting both ambitious/character driven movies. Makes me wonder if this will be a new age of movies or Hollywood?
When I first heard they were making a Barbie movie, I scoffed. Then I saw the trailer for it when I went to see the Super Mario movie and I was intruiged. They did a great job appealing to people who normally couldnt care less about Barbie. I hadnt heard of Oppenheimer until the whole Barbieheimer thing, but now I think I will see both in one afternoon. I usually dont even go to the movies
Seriously. I grew up in the 90's, and don't care about Barbie. But she's been a part of the world I live in for so long that I feel like I've gotta watch it!
i’m glad the barbie movie was nothing like the super mario bros movie🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 i like the games but that’s the most overrated fucking movie i’ve ever seen
I'm surprised I'm one of the few going to see Barbie first.
Nolan films need time to marinate, you watch the film and then take an hour or two afterwards to digest what just unfolded. I don't want to go into Barbie with the weight of the moral consequences of nuking Japan on my shoulders while watching Gosling "just beach" lol
Good argument in favour of Barbie first! Might be hard to enjoy the humour while pondering the likelihood of nuclear Armageddon!
Barbie requires minimal thinking to understand how droll it is, enjoy.
That’s why I’m watching them at least an hr apart, and still watching Oppenheimer first.
That's why I'm seeing Oppenheimer early in the morning (10:20am) and then I have all day to digest it before seeing Barbie at night (8:45pm). Means I finish the day on a high as well.
@@isaac_paech that's a good point! If you have a long enough break between showings, Oppenheimer first sounds like the move. I'll probably watch mine back to back
It's crazy how great it is to actually "see" scenes in Barbie trailer. Like I don't need to adjust brightness settings.

I watched Oppenheimer first because my girlfriend, who wants to be a producer and is very inspired by Christopher Nolan, invited me to watch it first because of it's incredible writing, dialogue, sound and visual effects, and general vibe. I grew up with Barbie but felt like watching it second doesn't take anything away from any of the movies as they are both amazingly produced movies.
This explains so perfectly why both movies are incredible, and watching both in the same day was an awesome experience
Barbie was part of the boomer culture that sprang up after WWII so the collision of the 2 movies is a perfect tribute to a generation

@@a17waysJackinn I don't care, this meme is fxcking cringe lol.
Even more surprising is the fact that Barbie leaves you off on a bigger existential crisis than Oppenheimer. The ending of Barbie actually leaves more people self aware of the modern world which is ironic given the film's expected premise
I had more of a crisis from Oppenheimer personally. But I can see what you’re saying
i had less of an emotional reaction for oppenehimer bc I knew what I was getting into but after barbie I called my mom and started crying bc of the montage scene- that for some reason really got it for me
Oppenheimer: “When I came to you with those calculations, we thought we might start a chain reaction that would destroy the entire world…”
Einstein: “I remember it well. What of it?”
Oppenheimer: “I believe we did.”
And the soundtrack hit so hard at the ending
I'm so glad Barbinheimer is that that exists like we NEEDED this. As a girl, I think everyone, especially women should see the Barbie movie. But I also think everyone should see Oppenheimer too.
Barbieheimer is really the best real life example of the “holy shit two cakes” meme I’ve ever seen
😂
Barbenheimer really reminds me of when Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing New Horizons releasing the same day. Both communities came together to celebrate their fandoms and the artwork of the Doom Slayer interacting with the bunny from ACNH were such a blessing during the height of COVID
it's actually thr dog Isabelle
Ironic is that they now officially claim to be best friends by both community as the gamers overall❤
@@starblossom05
I don't think that's irony.
That's the first thing I thought of too. I loved all the memes that were created from Isabelle and Doom guy's friendship.
I just commented the same thing before reading this.
This might sound dramatic, but this is the best video essay I've seen in a while. It perfectly depicts the internet meme that is Barbenheimer, which I myself was a little confused about, together with shedding an interesting and really open-minded light on both movies, that they so rightfully deserve!! Haven't seen any of them yet, but now I really want to. Great job 🙏
I'm so glad something like this just randomly happened, this is such a cool event and I love it.
I love the buzz and atmosphere of a massive event and everyone going to this big thing and talking about it. Also I love cinema so it's great seeing it get lots of attention. It's great to actually go to a place for some big event and sit in the big room as it happens with others.
I've seen Barbie so far and it's amazing, if I get the chance I'll see Oppenheimer too but I'd say it's great as well. I'm in another continent for the last few weeks but still went to see barbie due to the hype and that really nailed down how big this is, I was sitting there watching this movie while everyone I knew was back at home doing the same and even someone I know on the opposite side of the globe too was likely going to see it. Just amazing
The thing I love about Barbenheimer is that the shared release date is actually a common strategy for covering demographics -- theatres want to always have one new kids movie, one new "boys movie" (action comedies, historical movies abt great men, etc) and one new "girls movie" (romantic comedies, historical romance etc), so that everyone who comes to the theatre will find something "for them" -- that tends to reinforce gender stereotypes. The same could have easily happened with Barbie and Oppenheimer; girls seeing the former and boys seeing the latter, and then battling it out on the internet (where Oppenheimer would, undoubtedly, win. As you say, most of the internet tastemakers are still men).
With that first teaser, Gerwig opened up new demographics to Barbie, and in doing so, made people notice that the two movies shared a release date. And then, instead of making this some kind of culture war (as the internet often does), people came together to create Barbenheimer -- this beautiful phenomenon where everyone, regardless of gender and typical preference, is encouraged to watch BOTH the Manliest Manly Movie AND the Girliest Girly one.
Now let's just hope the movies are as great as they seem! 👠💣

In my opinion the first scenario you stated about the girls watching the girly movie and the guys watching the manly movie seems like a great day. In the end, let’s be real, the guys are only gonna enjoy Oppenheimer and the girls will only like Barbie. You’ll just end up paying for 2 movies you didint even care about
@@ibrahimtarek7911 that'll probably be the case for most people. Barbenheimer is probably the best corporate marketing tactic ever though, you gotta admit, They're getting smarter
@@ibrahimtarek7911that's a very narrow worldview where girls can't enjoy historical films and guys can't enjoy fun films. I hope you go see Barbie and prove yourself wrong
The first trailer was also a callback to the very conception of Barbie! Before her, the only dolls for girls were baby dolls. You played as the mother, but you didn’t get to project yourself onto a cool or inspiring figure… Barbie WAS that revolutionary figure for young girls’ pretend play!
Indeed. Barbie did for little girls what action figures does for little boys.
After seeing both of those movies, only a few short hours apart, I think they both equally critique society in Ways, no movie in recent years has. I I think I speak for almost every viewer of both films when I say, we will equally be racking our brain for the answers that lay within both Barbie and Oppenheimer for years to come.
The A.V. Club has noted that one of these films has a main character grappling with the concept of death. The other is Oppenheimer.
I snickered! 😂
I think it would be cool if movie theaters actually embraced the meme and showed double features for the films. It's also wholesome that the actors from both movies enjoy the meme, too.
There is going to be a double feature in some german cinemas and I’m going to watch “Barbenheimer” tomorrow 😍
@@jacquessiemens9170 nice lol
There are a lot of double feature sessions of Barbenheimer in Brazil, both of them will come out a day early here on Thursday, I myself am going to one that will last all night with an extra surprise movie on Friday, Brazilians love memes in general so a lot of people are going to watch it.
I'll only be watching the one that doesn't open with smashing baby dolls like it's the steps of Babylon and saying "WE DON'T HAVE TO BE MOMS ANYMORE!". Ken is the villain for the movie, men are bad, they are pro child mutilation and Dr. barbie wants to indoctrinate young girls all across the nation to believe that men are better women than women.

@@strngmgc vc conseguiu o ingresso ;---;?? eu tentei mas falhei hahah
Imagine if the real Oppenheimer and some personification of Barbie entered our modern world and witnessed the Barbenheimer meme.
It would be a rather interesting set of reactions because both have rather explosive branding.
they did an interview with oppenheimers grandson and they asked him about seeing the barbie movie lmao
I hope we see more of this in the future! I had so much fun dressing up for both movies and watching them back to back.
As a male who has never played with anything Barbie related, and has a massive interest in historical subjects, I’m quite excited for both movies.
And as a female Barbie looks terrible
@@megan7792 if it's an existential comedy it'll be better than it looks.
@@megan7792we cant all have taste
@@megan7792it looks okay.. It's not as corny as everyone is claiming..
You are liar dude you probably sleep with barbie pillow
This is the right attitude. We need to celebrate that these two movies might be totally different but they're both passion projects with huge pools of talent driving their creativity and the fact their intended audiences are so different means a very diverse range of people have a cinematic event they can be genuinely excited about right now and that's an awesome thing.
having done the double feature, the parallels are beyond remarkable. the cinematic event of the year I say.
Passion projects? You do realize Barbie is a misandrist piece of garbage right? There's no passion there, unless you can call a deep unfounded hatred of men 'passion' somehow.
Okay industry bot
@@mummyjohn The cinematic event of the year without a doubt would be Sound of Freedom, don't let this distract you from that.
Hell yeah. I love this comment.
I'm convinced, I didn't know anything about Barbie until I saw my first trailer of it right before this video and seeing the detail, passion and skill behind both productions through your vid makes me actually wish I were more of a filmhead myself.
My impression of big movies is too much that they're made with a mish-mash of people most interested in money, those with the skills and talent to make parts of the movie happen but without enough of a voice, and peeps who look good on camera... Didn't know about the Barbie teaser until now and I really like Margot Robbie, also thought the trailer was clever and loved how straightforward it was with noting "If you hate Barbie, this movie is also for you". I remember being disappointed I was given a Polly Pocket as a kid when I wanted the cooler boyish toys, so I kind of wanted to steer clear of all the pink... I definitely judged too quick when hearing about a "Barbie movie" that peers were "watching for memes".
Barbenheimer reminds me of that one friend duo, where one if the tall extrovert and funny guy, then the other friend is the short hot tempered and introverted.. the best duo ever made !
Me and my best friend are like that 💀 im the shorter fiesty gremlinass friend of the duo
@@squirlis1189 that's crazy i'm the short guy too 💀
Just got back from Barbenheimer. I saw Oppenheimer first then Barbie, and I really recommend that order, I can't imagine doing it any other way. The first film is about how we could have destroyed the world 80 years ago, but we didn't. I got to walk into Barbie after that to see a fun, clever, beautiful movie produced by a world that didn't blow ourselves up. We survived Oppenheimer and we got to see Barbie. Humanity is great.
Best comment here by far. You win.
man I had to remind myself that we survived the testing in the desert bc I was absolutely terrified of the atomic bomb thinking in the possibility of destroying the fucking world. Im watching barbie this monday to blow some steam off
@@PepeValenzuela yeah just remember that we DID survive it and look at what get to create now :) enjoy barbie!!
Well, shit. Looks like I messed it up
As an experience together, I can see Oppenheimer being the better option to go first.
But if you want to enjoy each film on its own merits, I think barbie first is the way to go. To me Oppenheimer very much feels like a movie that takes some time to process afterwards, and I think that watching barbie afterwards would have detracted from my experience of both movies. At least if you watched them back to back like I did.
I hope people are true to their memes and actually go out and support these films and make them both box office hits cause cinema needs it.
I can't afford to go to two movies in one week, but I'm confident they'll both be playing for a while!
I already got my tickets for both movies on Sunday! 🔥
The world needs to support “Sound of Freedom” to bring more awareness of how we can all fight to save children
We already copped our tickets! Watching Oppenheimer in the afternoon and Barbie at night! 💕
Last movie I have seen in a theather was Dune (pandemic+baby) and I am actually considering going to Barbie.
This for some reason drawing this much attention and sound of freedom not is extremely uncanny
I did the double feature and watched barbie first and then Oppenheimer, it was great, so much fun, Barbie hit many notes just like the Lego movie did for me years ago. Then Oppenheimer was amazing and so amazingly done. I loved both and appreciate how unique both were.
I appreciate Barbenheimer. It is a legendary meme for Margot Robbie and Cillian Murphy.
I can’t wait for Margot to star in more films. I’ll be glad to be hearing from her sooner as an actress :)
I know cgi isn't going anywhere, but my god...if these two films are some kind of an indicator of a return to more tangible/practical filmmaking, then I'm all for it!
Hear hear
Don't forget Tom Cruise; he loves in-camera movies.
Hi. You must be new to Christopher Nolan films. As far as I can tell Nolan abhors CGI. He never used it in any of the Batman movies, which is saying something considering all the gadgets and gliding scenes.
In age where film enthusiasts are often divided it’s nice that we have a pair of movies that have united.
Totally agree. To nice to see the cinematic commentary channels I enjoy talking about both these films!
Because it's obvious everyone is going to watch both
That kinda rhymed
Omg. They both suck
After watching Oppenheimer, I can confirm, that despite not being able to access the movie in IMAX (because our theater was completely doodoo) there are many occasions that I felt my eardrums explode like a nuclear bomb.
I literally felt it rattling my chest a few times.
Naturally, I couldn't resist seeing them both on the same day.
I mean, the rush of ideas through my brain about us humans as a species, the ethical dilemma regarding the morality of feeling justified in asking for forgiveness for one's actions when one's intentions are sincere, and just how to process all of that ...was precisely what I was expecting to expeienece when watching Barbie.
Okay that was not my best, I'll come up with something better in the next few hours. Promise!
While I expected Oppenheimer to be haunting, and a very important movie, so I got precisely what I was hoping for, I was pleasantly surprised by how emotional I got watching Barbie, I really recommend everyone sees it. 😮❤
As for Chris Nolan's movie. That's gonna stay with me for as long as I live because of its subject matter. I feel genuinely like I've just seen something as terrible as an unfortunate car crash (Which is exactly what this movie was going for).
Probably one of the best films I've seen in the past 10 years, and the best one I'd seen that's been directed by him.
Chilling, haunting, and sorrowful. Again, exactly as its supposed to be.
Everyone: you cannot convince an audience of 90+% men to go see Barbie.
Pentex Productions: hold my beer
He still didn't lol.
Uh not really.
Yesterday when I went to see it, it was like 80% girls, 10% dudes going with their gf and 10% CHAD barbie enjoyer
Real men do what they want.
@@boopdoop2251 which is not watch barbie lol
as a 32 year old male, you described the impact of the Barbie teaser really well. And now I'm actually more hyped for Barbie than I am for Oppenheimer. It seems like Barbie is going to be this year's Lego Movie: it would be the easiest cash grab, but the love, talent, care and deep understanding of the source material from the filmmakers show that you can make a great movie out of anything and every bad or even mediocre movie is just a missed opportunity ...
well at least that's what I hope it will be. Movie's not out yet and reviews haven't come in, so who knows?
Exactly the same boat here. I think the comparison to the Lego Movie is fair - people expected a run of the mill cash grab, but it turned out to be a very well made and unique film that had no business being as good as it was. Fingers crossed Barbie does the same (I have every confidence in Greta Gerwig).
@@PentexProductions in Greta we trust! :D
the "i'll beach you off" scene makes it seem like it lol, that was pretty funny
Not to mention they both have Will Ferrel
@@allature When I went with friends to see GogGv3 they played the Barbie trailer (and Oppenheimer, lol) prior to it. I noticed Will Farrel was in it and asked my friend if they thought that might mean they both exist in the same world and that he might actually be the same character.
Ive been waiting 4 months for Oppenhimer, my favorite actor and my favourite historical event of all time all in one-and now its my favorite movie.
This reminded me of the night before my grandmas funeral when I sat with my grandad to watch the good, the bad and the ugly for his choice, with a chaser of mamma mia, in memory of grandma and it was rather surreal.
it is an odd feeling that ive been genuinely excited for both these movies for months
Same!
I know! It’s been a long time since I’ve been this excited to see a new movie
The respect for the Barbie movie you showed in this video is amazing
Imagination, life is your creation!
lmao that's a given, especially as a video essayist. Pentex should be given their flowers but not for something that's the bare minimum
@@beybey384exactly
it was basically a barbie ad
Why? Is it hard to respect Barbie or something?
Just watched openhimer, and have to say loves the sound design and cleaver use of alternating where the sound is coming from. And it felt like who ever was editing the sound was having a lot of fun doing it do to how dynamic it is.
I think we'll look back at this time and realize Barbie was like a modern-day Renaissance for Hollywood/the world.
We need a Barbenheimer double feature Blu-ray!
YES!
That will be the greatest movie ever made screw endgame and across the spiderverse those are nothing compare to the god masterpiece that is barbenheimer
Has it ever happened before in some shape between two studios / publishers? I guess the publishers could be the same on BD?
@@rkan2 I guess we're about to witness a historic first!
We need a Barbenheimer trailer from the two competing studios. I can see it now, with the testing site city being replaced with Barbie’s Dream House
I genuinely think that Oppenheimer might be really overwhelming and if you watch it first, you’re gonna be thinking about it the whole time you’re watching Barbie
Then again if you watch it second, all the positive feel you got from Barbie may be buried under overwhelming sense of doom...
I just wouldn’t watch them on the same day idk why everyone wants to 💀 I feel like I need to decompress after Oppenheimer
@@chiot2875just how I like it. Openheimer for dinner, Barbie for desert
@@chiot2875 That's what I'm thinking as well. Oppenheimer has a runtime of 3 hours, after that I definitely wouldn't have the energy left to watch Barbie for another 2 hours, even if it's bright pink, bubbly fun
I think you should watch Oppenheimer first since historically it came first. Then zoom forward 14 years for the invention of the Barbie. The everyday fear and imminent danger of living in a post-war era brought about a need for escapism. There was also the baby boom that created demand for toys.
Barbie is the escapist antidote for post-nuclear fear.
Barbenheimer is the "Doom Crossing" of movies
I watched both movies yesterday with my bf and friends. Girls in pink and boys in dark suits, it was such a fun theme to explore and by the end of the event we could all say; it is a good day to be alive.
I don't know if you know this, but there was actually a double billing event that's eerily similar to Barbenhiemer that happened in Japan a long time ago. Two anime movies from the same animation studio, Studio Ghibli; ("My Neighbor Totoro" and "Grave of the Fireflies") were both released on April 16, 1988! They were directed by two of the studio's founders, Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata respectively. Both of whom are respected filmmakers. "My Neighbor Totoro" is kid's movie about two sisters who move into the countryside and befriend a forest spirit named Totoro. It's a very happy and cheerful movie for all ages while "Grave of the Fireflies" is the exact opposite. It's about two siblings trying to survive in post WW2 Japan after the war left them orphaned and homeless. It's a sad and downright heartbreaking movie with a powerful message about the consequences of war that's not for the most emotional of people. A happy, funny, and cheerful adventure film for all ages and a drama film set in World War II released on the same day made by acclaimed filmmakers. If that's not a strange coincidence, I don't know what is!
I didn't know about that! Even more strange that they came from the same studio!
FYI, 'cause both of them are from the same studio, they decided to make a double-release, where you would watch Grave of the Fireflies first and then My Neighbor Totoro after. But the test audience were devasted after watching the first movie, crying their eyes out because of the orphans in the war, so they weren't paying attention to the happy sisters playing with a fluffy forest spirit. (both movies are incredible, i only recommend an box of tissue for Grave of the Fireflies + a time to digest the story)
Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata love doing this. In The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness documentary, they show some of the behind the scenes drama involved in such a release. What you stated above actually repeated itself in 2013 when Takahata and his team released The Tale of Princess Kaguya and Miyazaki and his team released Kaze Tachinu, though the movies do not have a contrast that is as dramatic.
Grave of the Fireflies is absolutely heart wrenching. 💔😢
@@anthtan It is also one of the best films I have ever watched. Happy to talk to a fellow fan
As a hardcore Nolan fan that usually doesn't get phased by the hype around movies, I wasn't even planning on going to see Barbie at the cinema. But damn, this time they got me, I'll go to both and I'm kinda excited even as an adult man that never liked barbies. Just gotta love a good movie experience and you never know what you're gonna like until you see it.
fazed*
Lol you dont even believe that.
@justaguywhodoesntlikehentai that's true sir. I admit it
In a similar boat. I hadn't paid Barbie any attention before now, but it looks smart and worth my time.
Pretty sure the Barbie movie will be typical, girl boss, woke, feminist propaganda. Hopefully not but probably.
First movie Oppenheimer was pack to brim like The Force Awakens all over again where you had people standing at the door just to watch. Then I went straight Barbie and there was popcorn everywhere. The cleaning crew showed up late so I grabbed some snacks and waited until they were done which was ten minutes pass trailer time. All and all a great experience.
Im so excited for barbie for many reasons but one of the biggest reasons is to actually be able to SEE something. Movies have been so dark these past years
true!!!!
and leave the theater feeling good
Not just movies, that one episode of GoT gave me cataracts from straining at the screen so hard
And they're original screenplays! What a treat these days.
Quite visually and thematically. Movie are getting darker in term of lightning somehow
Honestly this makes me really happy - the movie landscape lately has been a little bit bleak so having something fun like this this summer is really refreshing.
Yes x-actly, something original instead of another sequel or soft reboot.
10:37 I loved seeing all the references in the movie. This dog specifically. I remember having the dog when I was younger, it came with a dog food box, a garbage can, and a little magnetic pooper scoopoer. You could actually feed the dog, it could poop, and then you'd clean up after it and do it again. It was a weird concept in hindsight but it added tons of diversity when playing with it. I remember Mattel had a recall because the food/poop had magnets in them so they could be cleaned easier, and my mom and to take it away so we wouldn't also eat it. The dog was one of my favorite toys when playing with Barbies, and it was so cool to see them acknowledge no only it, but other weird or discontinued dolls as well. I had Growing Up Skipper from when my mom used to play with Barbies. I remember seeing the Barbie with the camera in her chest in stores and wanting it so desperately for my birthday. At attention to details is outstanding.
bruh together these were master pieces, both of them, the day these came out has to be the peak of my time watching cinema, what absolute bangers!
As a girly girl who enjoys seriously crafted films I can't express how excited I am for Barbie, just because it's fun and cute doesn't mean it can't be good and serious. I hope this inspires other directors to take their works and up them instead of just assuming it won't work or that people won't notice if it cuts corners.
I'll only be watching the one that doesn't open with smashing baby dolls like it's the steps of Babylon and saying "WE DON'T HAVE TO BE MOMS ANYMORE!". Ken is the villain for the movie, men are bad, they are pro child mutilation and Dr. barbie wants to indoctrinate young girls all across the nation to believe that men are better women than women.

Somehow, the corporates still win!
@@PentexProductions There is no beating the system, resistance is pacified, counter-culture is commercialized and the workers remain poor. Atleast these two films seem genuinely interesting.
@@GiggleBlizzard The workers remain poor because the workers keep empowering the state to "protect them" when the stat is and always will be run by the powerful. The reason workers are poor is because of lack of competition in the labour space. The reason for lack of competition is two fold, one overly complex regulations for starting and running a business, and two wage laws that set minimum wage standards allowing large companies to create a wage floor for all workers regardless of skill level. Yet socialist morons will always clamber for more regulations no matter how much evidence is provided demonstrating the adverse effects.

@@figgy0971 The scene is what it is, what they chose, for a reason, since it's a meticulous movie. Stealing and then giving doesn't stop making a person a thief, but it's quite a cover. Especially for a practice that is despicable, but still practiced.

@@sendmorerum8241 I think it’s just in terms of society. Post ww2 involved the invention of concepts like the nuclear family, the ideal woman, and “pink collar” jobs (domestic tasks and child rearing). Eventually women got tired of it, starting movements to free women from that, thus creating an icon of the youth: Barbie™️, the woman who can be anything. Yet, she was never a mother.
Of course, that’s probably because of purity culture, so as not to encourage young women to want to become pregnant at a young age; as a result, however, Mattel created a woman who’s value was not in being a mother, but in being herself, with a million jobs and one name, a woman to define every woman.

This is such a great moment for the cinematography, especially after this 3 years I believe Barbenheimer will help revitalize this industry.

Barbie is the best marketed film I’ve ever seen
idk, i'd only advocate for this if it prioritised marketing that doesn't give away spoilers or important details. Otherwise it would encourage marketing teams to reveal even more about the film
As someone who grew up reading both comics and playing with dolls and make up, thank you so much for making this video/ putting some respect on Barbies movie name as it deserves. It's so refreshing hearing so many men on RUclips not only be excited to watch it but also talk about it!

Just did Barbenheimer today. Oppenheimer first, then 2 hour lunch break, then Barbie. It worked for us because Barbie is the shorter film, and I feel we were able to get through the full Oppenheimer movie without feeling tired. Barbei is shorter, and easier to get through at the end of a full day at the cinema. Both great films!
Barbenheimer feels like back when you used to go to Blockbuster to rent out a couple of random movies
Those really were the days.

So true!
And there was a high possibility to be surprised how good your picks were.
They dont really make original and imaginative movies like that anymore and rely too much on franchises.
Why not Opparbie ?
As a 16 year old girl who loved both Barbies and Batman as a kid and aspires to be a director, your openness and respect for what Greta is trying to do makes me so so happy. I’m so excited for both of these films and am preparing to cry tears of awe in both

Barbie to dig deeper, Oppenheimer to create a banker from that hole

I was surprised to hear my 60 year old father say he's looking forward to Barbie. His words- "it just looks like a fun film, we haven't had a fun film in ages."
We're going to see both this weekend, and I was sure he'd only want to see Oppenheimer.
