‘Barbie’s 25 most WTF — and hilarious — quotes
The Barbie script is genius. So genius in reality that for the previous week I’ve unapologetically been calling my dwelling “the mojo dojo casa home,” completely saying The Godfather as Issa Rae did within the movie, and quoting Ken’s (Ryan Gosling) distaste for the patriarchy’s exclusion of horses at any alternative I get.
The Barbie film has left a pink handprint on all of our hearts. I personally cried, laughed, and screamed for the whole lot of its runtime. And whereas there’s rather a lot in regards to the film to fall in love with, from its Easter eggs all the best way to its lovely bench scene, there are a pair — okay, rather a lot — of one-liners from the movie I hope all of us quote eternally.
So with out additional ado, let’s hop into Barbie’s pink convertible, make a journey down reminiscence lane, and relish within the movie’s biggest, funniest, most underrated, and even most surprising strains.

Everybody greets one another within the morning in BarbieLand, even the Astronaut Barbies all the best way up in area.

The great thing about this line is in its supply. Allan (Michael Cera) belts out this visceral, screeching, unapologetically empathetic “NoooooOOOOOOO!!” when Ken (Ryan Gosling) has an enormous seaside accident — in any case, he is Ken’s buddy. And whereas it’s no secret that Allan is Barbie‘s biggest character, this one “NOOOOO” kickstarted our absolute adoration for him.

Whereas Physician Barbies deal with Ken after his surf accident, he goes on a passionate tangent explaining that his job’s actually exhausting. Ken’s not a lifeguard. He’s not a surfer. His job is simply seaside and it’s SO exhausting.

Seaside is now totally an actual job.
