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?
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.
I approve men as much as women, and ladies should have the same chances at the world. I knew I liked the movie as soon as I saw the trailer, though I don’t understand many of the controversial topics presented by it (I’m too simple 😂). I find it interesting that someone gets offended by the movie (constructive criticism is important, folks!).
I’m no perfect as a man and so ain’t the closest lady to me neither.
Actually a good movie tho

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.

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
I agree. I just watched the movie.
