Barbenheimer Double feature!
Barbenheimer Double feature!
Me and some friends are going out this weekend to see this summer's hottest flix: Oppenhiemer and barbie.
While these two films are in practically polar opposite genres. I feel viewing them together will helps us enjoy them both more!
Both films focus on extremely influencial american icons. Barbie and oppenhiemer aka the nuclear bomb.
Obviously, Theres a lot that could be discussed about each figure individually. But thats kinda why I feel its good to view them together. The constrast can help us appreciate both genres and characters.
There are many serious and deep question we could ask when discussing both films and i welcome these conversations but im going to try and keep it light for now:
Topics to ponder on pre -viewing:
Who is more influencial oppenhiemer or barbie?
Barbie came after the nuke, what influcences did the bomb have on barbie. See bikini atoll.
Who would win in a phyical fight Barbie or Oppenheimer? ( barbie can tag-in Ken ) ( Oppenheimer is allowed 1 gadget of his own design)
Who would win in a game of chess? Barbie or Oppenheimer? The game is timed and Oppenheimer must answer ken's questions about the rules.
Please discuss whatever you like about these films separately or together!
I will make another post after viewing discuss the films in-depth.
See y'all soon!
You're viewing a single thread.
Why is it a Double Feature anyway? I seriously don't understand why?
They came out on the same weekend. And people have a problem with it so it makes me want to see them both more.
People have a problem because they came out the same week?
There was a puffpiece written a few weeks ago where some staffer working for the Oppenheimer film stated that christopher nolan said, that he didnt like the two movies coming out at the same time. Who knows if this is true.
From there a bunch of forced probably fake drama has been floating around on the internet, where tabolids are trying to create a rivalry between the movies. Even ryan gosling and other unrelated celebrities commented on it. Most just stated that people can see two movies in one weekend.
Ultimately its probably just a marketing technique.
For me, i Just really like the idea of barbenhiemer.
