Barbie in the Princess and the Pauper. Ofc I have to recommend the classic™, the iconic, the soundtrack of many girls’ lives.
Barbie as Rapunzel. OK, does this hold up? Kinda, a little bit. But, there’s a magic paintbrush that I really really really wanted as a kid in it.
Barbie of Swan Lake. I haven’t watched this for a long time, but I remember when I watched it last it was still pretty good.
Barbie and the Three Musketeers. I watched this as an adult so the fight scenes and stuff are kinda funny, but I’ve read from people who watched it as a little girl and she said it made her feel powerful and badass.
Barbie: A Fashion Fairytale. This is a modern day kinda plot. Do you know that in these films, most of the time, Barbie was the actor playing these roles? (hence “Barbie as …”, “Barbie in …” ) This one she’s Barbie, the actor who played those roles, and it’s about her little adventure during her acting hiatus. My friend went on a trip to China and bought me a dvd of this as a souvenir, out of the blue. It was weird.
Barbie: Princess Charm School. THIS IS ICONIC. This is the closest to Mean Girls as it gets.
Barbie in Princess Power. This is a superhero movie. She is everything. She’s a princess who has superpower. Marvel and DC need to watch out.
Barbie: Spy Squad. They made a spy movie too!
Barbie: Star Light Adventure. I was actually surprised by the plot of this. Barbie movies are usually straight forwards, but this one has a little turn to it. The animation is not bad either.
Barbie in the Pink Shoes. I don’t think I’ve seen this yet but someone called it a ballet satire, so now I have to watch it.
I understand if you don’t watch them though. They’re movies aimed for kids, especially young girls, so they might not be of an interest or a taste of a grown adult.
I do think adults, especially parents, should watch what’s made for kids, always. You should know what the media is telling your children. These things influence and shape how children grow. Also, the idea that parents don’t put enough heart into knowing what their kids consume saddens me.
Anywayyyy
it was fun making that drinking game thingy. I’ll see what silly little things I can make next.
Hope this is a good week for you! Have fun in the philippines.
Love you (strictly platonically),

PS - You still haven’t told us about what it’s like meeting Catherine O’Hara yet 🥹
