Barbie

"But she's dead, Your Highness. The imposter must've escaped. [Anneliese: No, Preminger.]"

"Guards! Take him!"

"My whole philosophy of Barbie was that through the doll, the little girl could be anything she wanted to be. Barbie always represented the fact that a woman has choices."

"I enjoy getting dressed as a Barbie doll. ~ Vanna White"

"The original of the yellow rose is clad (you've guessed it) in canary yellow. The lemon-meringue confection has been poured into yellow slacks and yellow shirt, an immaculate yellow-blonde barbie-doll with 'EFG- Follies-Girl' written all over her."

"I love having a kid [...] They don’t let you think about yourself. [The one drawback of being a mum in America is that] Mabel wants Barbie, one of those bloody awful dolls. No vaginas, no nipples and they're bulimic. This is what femininity is? [...] Ever tried to assemble a Barbie barbecue stand? [...] Fortunately, Mabel already knows that Ken's just Mr. Barbie. She already cut his hair punk style. She knows that ... Ken's an idiot."

"You are so plastic you could be a Barbie Doll. You walk you talk just like them all."

"I hate men. They're stupid, ignorant animals with stupid ignorant hobbies. And they hated me. But I didn't need them. I had Barbie."

"But ultimately Barbie is like the Disney princess, an unshakeably enduring childhood fantasy that is impervious to feminism and reality, the ultra-processed food of children's toys that creates an insatiable appetite for more. Arguments about whether she teaches girls how women should look, or whether girls are instinctively drawn to blonde and pretty representations of femininity, are chicken-and-egg arguments. Or rather, they’re irrelevant, because both statements are true."

"It is the best day ever — and so is yesterday, and so is tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, and even Wednesdays, and every day from now until forever!"

"Do you guys ever think about dying?"

"Some things have been happening that might be related. Cold shower. Falling off my roof. And my heels are on the ground."

"Basically, everything that men do in your world, women do in ours."

"She thinks I’m a fascist? I don't control the railways or the flow of commerce!"

"I'm not smart enough to be interesting. I can’t do brain surgery. I've never flown a plane. I'm not the President. No one on the Supreme Court is me. I’m not good enough for anything."

"I'm just Ken and I'm enough. And I'm great at doing stuff."

"Shredding waves is much more dangerous than people realize."

"If I wasn't severely injured, I would beach you off right now, Ken."

"Horses are just men extenders."

"To be honest, when I found out the patriarchy wasn't about horses, I lost interest anyways."

"Does the label "long-term long-distance low-commitment casual girlfriend" mean nothing to her?"

"[cries] Don't look at me!"

"(last lines, wearing a fuzzy blue and pink hoodie that says, "I Am Kenough." and weaving "goodbye" to Barbie) Thank you. Thank you, Barbie. Thank you."

"I'm just Ken Anywhere else, I'd be a ten Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blond fragility?"

"Can you feel the Ken-ergy? Feels so real, my Ken-ergy"

"Barbie has a great day every day. Ken only has a great day if Barbie looks at him."

"It is literally impossible to be a woman. You are so beautiful and so smart. And it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow we're always doing it wrong. You have to be thin but not too thin, and you can never say you want to be thin. You have to say you want to be healthy, but also, you have to be thin. You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass. You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean. You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas. You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time. You have to be a career woman but also always be looking out for other people. You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is insane, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining. You're supposed to stay pretty for men but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood. But always stand out and always be very grateful, but never forget the system is rigged, so find a way to acknowledge that but also always be grateful. You have to never get old, never be rude, never show off, never be selfish, never fall down, never fail, never show fear, never get out of line. It's too hard! It's too contradictory, and nobody gives you a medal or says thank you! And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also everything is your fault. I'm just so tired of watching myself and every single other woman tie herself into knots so that people will like us. And if all of that is also true for a doll just representing a woman, then I don't even know."

"If this got out, this could mean extremely weird things for our world. This would be catastrophic!"

"No one rests until this doll is back in a box!"

"Women are at the foundation of this company! There was a female CEO in the 90s and then another one... at some point. So that's two right there!"

"Guy at the Beach: Give us a smile, blondie."

"Allan: Allans have been in the real word before, no one's noticed! NSYNC? They're all Allans! Even that one!"

"Aaron Dinkins: I'm a man with no power, does that make me a woman?"

"Sasha: Men hate women and women hate women. It's the one thing we can all agree on."

"Kenmaid (Portrayed by John Cena): Hi, Barbie!"

"Ruth Handler: We mothers stand still so our daughters can look back to see how far they’ve come."

"Writer Barbie: Wait. I did write a book. It’s like I’ve been in a dream, where I was somehow really invested in the Zack Snyder cut of Justice League. But what you said broke me out of it."

"President Barbie: That's because they're Dreamhouses, mother... [bleep]"

"Margot Robbie - Barbie"

"Issa Rae - President Barbie"

"- Weird Barbie"

"She [Gerwig] told me that when she was growing up, her Christian family’s closest friends were observant Jews; they vacationed together and constantly tore around each other’s homes. She would also eat with them on Friday nights for Shabbat dinner, where blessings were sung in Hebrew, including over the children at the table. “I want people to feel like I did at Shabbat dinner,” she said. “I want them to get blessed.”"

"It’s a f—— doll movie! It’s a doll movie. It’s a fun movie about dolls who come to life and try to interact with the real world."

"You take a shot every time Barbie says the word 'patriarchy', you will pass out before the movie ends."

"My hope for the movie is that it’s an invitation for everybody to be part of the party and let go of the things that aren’t necessarily serving us as either women or men. I hope that in all of that passion, if they see it or engage with it, it can give them some of the relief that it gave other people."

"During his opening monologue at the ceremony, Koy said that while Oppenheimer was "based on a 721-page Pulitzer Prize-winning book about the Manhattan Project," Barbie was based on "a plastic doll with big boobies!""

"Whatever happened to she’s everything and he’s just Ken?"

"Greta Gerwig: Made a critically acclaimed, culturally profound, feminist movie about Barbie and the patriarchy that made a billion dollars at the box office. Oscar nomination goes to … Ken.”"
