    I just tried to watch “Barbie”; had to turn it off. Unwatchable. Yet, it was WB’s fastest film to cross $1 billion in just 17 days.

      Unwatchable???

      I’m confused, I’m way more critical of it than alot of my friends (corporate feminism is of course paper thin and filled with holes) but it’s still honestly hilarious with some super catchy music.

      Obviously you are entitled to your own opinion, but unwatchable feels harsh to me. What turned you off?

        A lot of mysoginists didn’t like it because it draws attention to things women go through on a regular basis and they don’t like being called out.
