    @Matt I think it snuck out during the pandemic, direct to whichever is Universal’s preferred streaming service. I get the feeling if theatres had been open it’d be a word of mouth hit.

    Take the dive...

          I'm still waiting for @Matt to write a review on the new 'Barbie' movie

            I went to watch Oppenheimer on IMAX yesterday…great movie. Very intense ending. Cillian Murphy was superb in the main role, but for me Robert Downey Jr and Emily Blunt were even better. I can only recommend it and go watch on as big screen as possible.

              I'm not Matt but Barbie was very good. Richard Brody's New Yorker Review says it better than I can but it is basically a great exploration of the limited political power of imagination boxed into an expertly directed cleverly paced piece of physical theatre. Gerwig smashed it again. Looking forward to seeing Oppenheimer in the next few days.

                Barbie and Oppenheimer have definitely been on my list

                  @Nik I’ve enjoyed everything Gerwig has done so far and I’m looking forward to seeing Barbie. We’re just trying to decide if we can take the whole family (9 & 12)

                    @Nik One of my mates was an extra in Barbie. Did a scene in which Margot Robbie bursts through a pair of double doors and run down a corridor make it into the final cut? My buddie says that he was dressed in a suit and walking down that corridor while MR runs past him.

                        @SKT same here. I think we’ll watch it at home together together.

                          @SKT @Matt If you guys do watch it, please let me know what you think. I’m in the same boat with my girls being 12 and 7…For about 5 years all the girls wanted to watch on YouTube was Life in the Dreamhouse (Barbie) and I can still hear that song in my head.

                            I will not. 😉

                            About Barbie: what I heard and read is that the movie is definitely NOT a kids movie. It is more political/social.

                              @goosehd that show was strictly forbidden here. What a vapid and soulless piece of shit that was. We did our best to stave off the inevitable Kardashianification of our girls as long as we could.

                                @Matt Thankfully not having TV means that the kids have no idea who/what the Kardashian’s are 🙂

                                It also means that we invest a ton of time into extracurricular activities which are slowly wearing me out, but it keeps the kids out of trouble.

                                Swimming, sailing, golf, and tennis for right now. Contemplating a martial arts class sometime soon so that they have an understanding of how to defend themselves.

                                  We try to mix it up. Screens are the last resort usually but as they get older we get more tired of entertaining they get more and more of it. Extracurriculars are so expensive and time consuming that we eventually yield to their pleas for quitting after a few months or years if we’re lucky.

                                  That Dreamhouse show was pure hot garbage though. After seeing 5 minutes of it I immediately instituted a ban. That’s why the movie appeals to me and to them frankly. They’re jaded cynics at 9 and 11 so I feel like I’ve done my part.

                                    Even though Barbie has a 12 rating there were lots of kids younger than that in the showing that Clara and I went to. They seemed to enjoy it, even though it definitely is not a kids movie. I think there’s enough physical comedy and fun design elements to keep them interested and the deeper stuff probably just goes over their heads? I’d have no issues taking my kids but then I don’t have any kids.

                                        @goosehd I don’t have kids (yet, I hope) but from what I see from my friends they’re gonna kick your ass at some point figuratively. Enrolling them in a martial arts class seems like aiding and abetting so they can also kick you ass literally

                                          @Matt @goosehd keep forgetting to post this but we took our kids to see Barbie. Son is 12 and daughter is 9. I thought it was absolutely freaking brilliant. We all loved it for different reasons and while some of the themes went over the kid’s heads it was a great conversation starter. My wife and I are still talking about it. Highly recommended
