Actually a good movie tho
Yup, that’s the Trojan Horse part of the meme. Good movie opens the gates for dozens of crummy copycat movies trying to take advantage of early 90s toy nostalgia.
If someone can make, for instance, a GI Joe film that demonstrates the dangers of imperialism and projecting military force in the name of “national security”, while wrapping it all up in a candy-coated action-adventure shell, I’m all for it. Or using Thundercats as a ploy for a message about colonialism and destruction of native civilizations, maybe?
I’m ready for the Mattel Cinematic Universe.
Let’s hide the conservative/capitalist brainwash deprogramming message into a cool movie about Hot Wheels, Polly Pocket and Mighty Max
Cars is basically hot wheels movie. Change my mind
Haven’t seen it but do they jab at the broken global system?

Let’s do a Super Soaker movie but it’s the 8 hour war with the aliens from Signs.

It’s actually pretty sad that there are probably going to be some braindead Hollywood execs who completely missed the point of the movie and unironically pitch something like this.
If that was what they were going for they should have switched the Barbie and shit movie tags.
I’m down for a BEAST WARS TRANSFORMERS movie
Here comes Polly Pocket motherfuckers
This is Barbieland MotherBeeper!
For those who are unaware, this is actually happening. Lena Dunham is directing and Lily Collins is starring.
Mattel is also in pre-producrion on Barney, Hot Wheels, and even Magic 8 Ball.
Magic 8 ball should be a 2000s era horror thriller.
Teenagers fate (played by obvious 30 year olds) is dictated by the results of a possessed ball. Signs point to Death 💀 in theaters, whenever.
Hot wheels should play it straight as a Racing movie but those damn orange loopty loop tracks, which again is so normal in that universe nobody brings it up. Wanna see some sick ass hot rods too.
Barney vs Godzilla. Let’s go. Will Love triumph over thunder?
If they rerelease Speed Racer as a Hot Wheels movie I’d be fine with that. More people need to see it
Not joking - Magic 8 Ball is planned to be a PG-13 thriller from the writer of Cocaine Bear.
And JJ Abrams is doing Hot Wheels.
Oh - and Barney is supposed to be inspired by “Being John Malcovich” and be “A-24-esque”
Followed by the XXX parody “Pollie’s Pocket”
Finally we getting a Street Sharks movie
Followed by Samurai Pizza Cats
Then Biker Mice From Mars next right?
You got any of them Mummies Alive! movies?
Give me a Japanese animation studio, but an improvised English dud like the original, and I’d actually be pretty hyped for this.
Dude that’d be Jawsome!
Starring Vin Diesel
When is Tiger Electronics gonna step up and do a creepy-ass Furby movie?
I’m not big on horror movies, but I’d legit watch a fury one
Uno movie is going to be a blast!
Only if it’s rated R for violence and blood
Too tier! Good work!
Can we please put all that barbie stuff in a barbie community now, so i don’t have to see it multiple times every day?
So basically, the 2010s again.
Hell, the Garbage Pail Kids Movie came out in '87. This has been going on for decades.
Yeah there’s even very popular examples in recent history, the Lego movie series to name one. I haven’t seen them, but I think the general consensus about them is positive. Hopefully studios look to this and see the the success in the vision of the film maker and the statement of the art, rather than in the commercial name recognition from a popular toy.
TERRENEITORRRR movie when
Just wait until Unilever brings over to the big screen all that IP they have.
There’s canned goods, hygeine products, cleaning products, sauces and lots more…
