why the fuck is her name daisy jean all of the sudden
can't wait to see what the actual title of this video will be when they realize they fucked it up
when ppl try to act like barbie is or should be edgy
thinking about how barbie used to be portrayed (in doll form) as an adult it actually felt like she had all those careers and she had a whole life and a boyfriend and cars and everything and now she's been very very firmly a teenager for so long now with no sign of anything changing any time soon and every "career" doll feels like a kid in a cheap costume and we're seeing more of her life than ever but none of it comes close to feeling as real as it did to imagine her as a grown up, when i was growing up. also thinking about the current wave of obsession with youth and beauty and skincare routines done by 10 year olds and ppl thinking they're an old crone by 25 (and I am not immune)
the great horse chase animation somehow looks even worse in motion but at least they're making some artisitic choices. and the voice actors are new... so this IS a reboot? right? please tell me it is please tell me the DAverse is finally dead after all these fucking years
ritesh rajan is the only one i wouldn't attack on sight for wearing a kenough hoodie. he's allowed.
I'm ignoring everything related to dream besties except the dolls themselves. they are ocs for me i don't care what mattel says.
periodic reminder that i am the world's biggest elina/nori hater. i hate them together and i hate you for shipping it and i block on sight xoxo
Tori has THE collection of Keira merch and is a princess with infinity dollars so when she says she has "most" of Keira's fashion line.... do you think some pieces were just too ugly or what
the correct aesthetic for modern anneliese is laura dern in jurassic park. yes i realize jurassic park released in 1993 and is not modern. but i am still correct
Any chance we can get 3, 12, 22 for Barbie? 👀🩷
3. screenshot or description of the worst take you’ve seen on tumblr
I feel like most of the worst takes I've seen have been ppl coming into my own fucking inbox. The one that takes the cake I think was when I was speculating about where The Lost Birthday might take place before it released, and based on the animals we saw (the giraffe, elephant, etc) I said something like, "I don't want them to be white girls in Africa." Like it was bad enough when they went to Hawai'i in Puppy Chase. And then someone came into my inbox like "what's wrong with being white in Africa?" and I don't even remember if I posted that or just deleted it. I tried searching my blog for any evidence of all of this but came up empty. But I remember it very vividly.
12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them
You already brought up Tori, which is my first answer, and I've already talked about why at much length. And even converted a few ppl! But I think the next most unloved Barbie protag is Kara, so I guess I'll say her. Ppl think her movie is dumb and ugly, but they just don't know how to have fun. She has a lot of growth during her movie, almost starting out similar to Tori in that she's pretty bored, except unlike Tori she's already looking for something to occupy her. And before she can fall into mischief, she gets superpowers and gets to dedicate herself to that instead. Her motivations for being a hero start out pretty shallow and selfish (she is mostly doing it for attention), but by the end she has started to see that there is more to being a hero than glory. I'm so, so, SO sad we didn't get a sequel for her, even though my "sequel" headcanons are almost a full reboot but I would have been interested in where canon could have gone.
22. your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores
Wenlock's wives stay together. This makes me insane whenever I think about it. They suffered god knows how much abuse, they were transformed against their will, they're finally free to go wherever they want (perhaps back to wherever they were kidnapped from, whether that's other kingdoms or not)... and they stay together. Idk if the director thought that much about it beyond the gag at the end of making Wenlock serve them instead, but every time I think about this it makes me so crazy. They stayed together!!
why does every modern erika aesthetic look so pretty and polished and pastel.... are you guys forgetting she was literally poor. like that was a huge plot point guys. where's the gunge
all day i have been thinking about how much i want to lift out the summers family stuff from my barbieverse bc we all know that's where my heart & soul is/was but it's all sooo inextricably tied to barbie stuff specifically it's hard to thi k of how i would do it. but i looooove the idea of mermaid and fairy half sisters so that might be the part i run with bc tbh i never got to do very much with it bc elina is a weenie who doesn't spend much time on earth and merliah isn't touching fairytopia with a 10 ft pole. but i love them both and obviously i love rip so yeah. this might be where it starts we might get somewhere now ppl
I might need to start streaming barbie movies again or something my weekends are boring as hell
good luck babe alexa and liana amv
