Why is Barbie so anticipated? It seems like this whole meme was planted by the industry.
Same reason Oppenheimer is: because of who is making it. Like, otherwise why would I care to see a biopic about a guy from 70-80 years ago in the theater?

God, talk about emotional whiplash.
I have this policy of never watching two different animes on the same day (to gave it time for it to "settle") but I broke this rule after watching Angel's egg. The atmosphere in that movie was so dark I decided I need to watch something colorful and light so I watched Ponyo, but I was still under the influence of the Angel's egg and I came up with alternative explanation of Ponyo where everybody dies (sea fish dies…

The talent on this film is stacked. I was interested the second I saw who was attached.

It feels forced and kind of turns me off to both movies. I try to be a good sport and enjoy the whole marketing production for these kind of cultural events (meaning the Barbie movie), but then they come in hot with this absur…

The national lab system formed to create the bomb quickly pivoted to HPC which drove funding and research to the computing industry for decades - anyone working in the tech industry, which I’d assume describes most people on this site, really should be interested in his story.

I hope it's good. (Though I've got a suspicion that a lot of HN users will hate it, and not because of it's girl-coded intellectual property.)
