The Differences Between Batman and Barbie
Barbie exists in more types of media than any other kinds of serial figures. Barbie had a vlog update on the George Floyd protests and I was just like stunned by this when my student showed it to me. If Greta Gerwig wanted to make a sequel to this and it was called like Detective Barbie I kind of think that would work as a hard-boiled film. Sameness enables every iteration of Barbies to exist differently across a spectrum of media but there's a difference to every iteration of him who doesn't feel the same no matter how different they are. Batman is grisled he's a grizzled fascist who is just trying to get things done you know
