    its very important to me that you know that there are actually TWO types of barbie movies that exist in the BCU.
    one is where barbie is just barbie, and her name is barbie and its either about her, or she’s telling a story where she’s being imagined as the main character.
    the other is like this movie and princess and the pauper, where the movie is actually a movie IN a movie and barbie is the actress playing the main character (genevive, annalise)
    you can even watch the “bloopers” in the end credits
    so basically barbie is super fucking meta

    I actually think the fan at the end is clever writing, cause she uses the thing against Rowena, that Rowena used to oppress her earlier - the thing, the princesses were laughed at, because they couldn't do it. The whole movie celebrates individuality. Rowena tried to take individuality away from them, making them all look and do the same, but in the end, they use their unique skills to fight back.

    As a ballet dancer, the animation for the dancing is surprisingly good. I was expecting to see just a ton of really rigid lines and random movements, but it actually captured the fluditiy of dance and the moves were pretty accurate. (Although I will say, dancers never count past eight and her counting to twelve felt weird lol.) And I'd never seen the barbie movies before because my mom never let me have anything to do with barbie as a kid but seeing all these people get so nostalgic in the comments makes me feel like I missed a key part of my childhood.

    Hey Alex, as a self proclaimed Barbie finatic who has watched all the movies hundreds of times (lol they’re my therapy), I highly recommend the Barbie diaries because you will be laughing the ENTIRE time and also Barbie mermaidia (fairytopia sequel) because it’s also genuinely really funny. They both have iconic lines like “who cares if she’s exciting, fresh, and fun?” “Please she sounds like a deodorant”, “lefting, leftaROOOOOO” and of course opera Bibble which is iconic.

    Fun fact, this Barbie movie is actually an adaptation of the story “The Shoes That Were Danced to Pieces” by the Brothers Grimm. It was more dark in that the king asks that a man discover where his daughters are going to dance at night, and if the man succeeds, he would be the next king and marry the daughter of his choice, but if the man tries and fails, he would be executed 😅

I even read once that the princesses ended up killing the dude that went after them, but now that I looked it up it wasn't like that... although they were willing to do so by drugging him and getting him executed for not descovering the secret, so yeah, to me it counts as being killers haha way darker than this movie for sure

    • @Linnzy

      Well, They did for a while make movies based on stories,fairytales, ballets, but for some reason or the other, they strayed from that theme more and more.
      Nutcracker
      Rapunzel
      Swan Lake
      12 Dancing Princesses
      Thumbelina (which really doesn't have anything common with the real story except for the name)
      Christmas Story
      Three Musketeers
      I thiiiink the Islamd Princess is also based on a story,but I'm not sure, I just always thought it seemed familiar, especially with poisionous stuff.
      Then they started making the Fairytopia and Mermaidia movies and I think, they continued with other mermaid movies because they noticed that it was selling better to their target audience perhaps, also with eliminating Princesses from their movies, they didn't need to compete with the Disney Princesses.
      (they even tried with more modern-like princesses but I think that didn't go tooo well)

      As a hardcore Barbie fan, the title actually says a lot.
      Is it says '" Barbie in-" or "Barbie as-" that means she is acting.
      But if it's a simple title like "Barbie: fairy secret" or "Barbie diaries."
      The only exception being Mariposa, which appears to be in a completely different alternate reality of Fairytopia. So like Mariposa is either a fanfic within the Fairytopia universe or a canon event in Fairytopia.
      Barbie Dreamhoise Adventure (Not life in a dreamhouse) is set before she became an actress likely since it's meant to be a prequel, likely during the timeline of Barbie Diaries.

    There's actually a in-universe reason as to why they reuse the character modles in the barbie movies. They are actualy movies that barbie (an actual actress) plays, and when a character has the same modle as other characters in other movies it's because the actor is the same, we see it in Barbie: fashion fairytale and a few other movies

      In the very first Barbie movies there was actually a framing device of Barbie narrating the story to Kelly whenever Kelly was feeling down about something, so I always assumed that the reason why the same characters appeared in different roles was Barbie was filling them with people they knew, hence Barbie always being the heroine, Ken the dashing romantic interest and Kelly taking whatever kid role there was.
      For whatever reason, after Swan Lake they dropped the whole Barbie and Kelly bookending the movie.

      @@mousepumpkin7564 both can be the reason to avoid anime. There's plenty of ridiculous anime like Rent a Girlfriend or Handshakers or Ex Arm, where he can do commentary and it can make a pretty good video. But it's not worth the headache with the Japanese authorities, who are stuck in the dinosaur age when it comes to copyright. Even now, Nintendo keeps pissing off the whole world because of Switch and its archaic ways.

    You decidedly did make my day better! Thank you! I think you'll enjoy Barbie & the Magic of Pegasus best, but I honestly wonder if you shouldn't save it for last. I know you can guarantee I'll be watching every one of your Barbie videos either way! Also, I definitely recommend the original three and the Fairytopia series, but in honest, it wasn't until - let me look it up... late 2008 that I even started getting disappointed by a title from time to time. Oh! And you should definitely watch The Barbie Diaries from 2006! It's hilarious! Unintentionally bizarre, a strange time capsule, and an early 3D animated high school drama!

      Girl shipwrecks on island and gets raised by animals.
      Prince goes to island and brings her and her animals from a tropical paradise to a castle where they have to live in a greenhouse to feel somewhat comfortable.
      He probably brings over unknown diseases to his kingdom cause she’s pretty.
      King and queen force prince and random princess to marry each other for whatever reason.
      Mother of princess is gold digger who married her father because he was old and rich and died a few days after the wedding (very suspicious if you ask me)
      Gold digger tries to have island girl killed because prince falls in love with island girl.
      Gold digger tries to drug everyone at princess’ wedding and commits multiple accounts of treason.
      Island girl calls her out on it, gold digger tried to flee but is ultimately stopped
      Island girl finds her long lost mother then marries prince.

    13:26 the reason why they all love dancing is because their mom loved dancing, and it connects all of them to each other and to their passed mom! they are each unique in that delia and edeline like sports, courtney likes reading, blair likes horses, etc. but dancing is the one thing that brings them together :)

    My nostalgia is speaking to me saying if you do another Barbie movie, please do The Nutcracker. I grew up with that, it was first exposure to Clara, the actual nutcrackers that appear at Christmas, and Ballet as a child. I liked the story, girl finds herself saving a wooden soldier and goes to a magical world. Honestly wasn't until years later I found out that it was technically all a dream to Clara and I was dumbfounded....probably even more so than figuring out what the story is an allegory to.
