One hopes not since Gerwig likely wouldn't be involved and Robbie and Gosling didn't sign a multi-picture deal.
I think a sequel with a really good idea behind it might be cool, but some stories should be one and done and I don't really know that any more needs to be said with live-action Barbie.
Meanwhile, Mattel has licensed 14 other properties for movies.
Yeah, I'm not against sequels in principle. Sometimes I just want to have another trip to whichever world the movie takes place. Barbie though... I love that movie, but I really don't see any way to make any sort of sequel and have it be good.
There was a subreddit for getting answers to questions in the form of something Calvin's dad would say, long ago (/r/ExplainLikeImCalvin IIRC?). It was pretty fun.
My brother totally thought they would be little mer-people with crowns like in the ads and was so pissed off when they turned out to be really tiny shrimp you could barely see.

What do I do, in the subtext box or?
Just here in the comments as a top level comment, as an explanation of the image
We have Google A.I. for that.
Now we just wait for Lemmy to sign that big Gemini deal so this post can be assimilated.
As Lemmy's resident Barbie expert, that's fake news.
In Barbieland, they are called "brine prawns".
"Barbie", now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services.
So... are you still saying you won't do a sequel or have you caved to billions of dollars' worth of pressure?
Like for example, "Barbie 2: The Search for More Brine Prawns".

Fact: This is actually where the phrase "shrimp on the barbie" comes from. It has nothing to do with BBQ.
What some of you call "misinformation" I call "a joke." Sometimes things are funny because they're not true.
I said disinformation.
Reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes comics. The dad does this constantly. Technically, this is benign trolling.

Tell that to Hasan Minaj.
That's also why she likes Foamingos
Foaming Os?
Foaming OS. It's a new distro based on Arch. It's so frustrating and difficult to maintain that you'll be foaming at the mouth from sheer rage.
That's right friends, those Sea-monkeys (https://www.sea-monkeys.com/) you raised as children, it's a fact that this is a major part of Barbie's diet.
When she's really hungry she has Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail. And wonders why Ken goes all pink watching her eat them.
Ken doesn't know why, either.
Especially since Ken canonically does not have genitals.

Smae!!! LoL
Don’t forget about the white wine or Beaver Boys
Shrimp are pretty rich though, if you eat too much you'll get sick.
Chugging it like a big foamy smoothie
TIL Barbie's property is affected by her diet as though she was in possession of an awakened devil fruit.
Ok so where do blue waffles come from?
