Far too many grown-ass men care far too much about movies made for little girls.

And I’m not just talking about Barbie. Look at all the dudes frothing at the mouth over the live action The Little Mermaid and Snow White, and before that over the Netflix She-Ra.

They can’t stand the existence of movies implying that women are people too

[-] Sektor@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Can you elaborate on that.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Barbie is definitely made for adults.

Hey, I'm pissed at the Little Mermaid and Snow White, but that's because I'm pissed at ALL the live action remakes. They're unnecessary garbage, every last one of them. If they want new generations to enjoy the stories, restore/upgrade/remaster/etc. the originals and stop "vaulting" them.

And I don't know anything about She-Ra. If it's anything like the He-Man reboot, fuck yes, go for it.

Grown-ass men were mad the new She-Ra wasn’t “hot.” I wish I was making that up.

that's nothing compared to the sexy m&m outrage

[-] turtlepower@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

But how's the story? Is it worth a watch?

[-] RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Not really, imo. It was pretty boring, tbh.

[-] Naia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 year ago

Considering Barbie was PG-13 it is very much not a movie "made for little kids", which is the argument these people use to complain about it.

[-] paraphrand@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I’ll beach both of you off at the same time!

They're protecting your kids! /a

At the same time, they're all for freedom coincidentally.
