    I just finished watching the movie, and I appreciated all of the references, including the cameos and Easter Eggs.

    Midge and Alan were married in 90s. They even had twins for some time. "Pregnant Midge" was, in fact, having a THIRD child together with Alan. Yes, there was a controversy over her not wearing a wedding ring cuz people FORGOT about Alan. Parents just forgot about Midge being married to Alan. I was alive at that time, too. 💀

    Not so much an easter egg, but I caught on quite quickly that ALL of the dialog was sort of being role played by various family members, some of whom were never shown on screen. There's an invisible toddler running the CEO (hence why he's shown holding pink drum sticks.) Gerwig apparently directed Gosling to cry as her four year old son cries; I got the impression than much of Ken was being run by a younger brother, the kind who got super excited when he learned about the patriarchy but less so when he learned it wasn't just about horses.

    Not an easter egg but i giggled when i saw that the LAPD arrest placard had "Barbie" for Margot and "And Ken" for Ryan 😂

    The barbieland version of Mt Rushmore is all of the first edition/original Barbies ie. the og 1959 Barbie, the first black barbie Christie, barbie’s first latina friend Theresa etc

    Why is no one mentioning Sasha and her 3 friends from school being the Bratz

    Scott!! Nobody is talking about Scott!! In one of the scenes of the Chelsea tree house, where Skipper lives, there’s a guy on the swing. That’s Scott: Skipper’s old boyfriend from the late 70’s. She came out when the Roller Skates Barbie & Ken came out. As part of the collection, there was a Skipper with a skateboard and also a long purple skirt. Scott was part of the collection. I had the other dolls, but not Scott

    the best easter egg is when barbie is meeting ruth for the first time , in the background over ruth's radio, an orchestral version of "what was i made for" is playing

    This movie is so awesome. I went with all my girlfriends and we spent the whole time roaring with laughter, as did the rest of the audience. There was a man behind us who kept making little comments during serious scenes that cracked us up, too, like, “Whoa, that’s deep,” and after a sad part, “I’m gonna need a beer after this movie.” The movie didn’t strike my friends and I as woke. It was just from the POV of girls/women. Men who aren’t used to thinking from that POV see it as as strange and extreme, but none of the women I know do. It disappoints me that more men don’t understand the movie, but then, it wasn’t made for them.
  • Now that I think about it, kinda gives a whole new meaning to “He’s just Allan” considering how Ken aspires to be “Just Ken”.
  • @brud33
    They put so much detail into the film

    I gifted my daughter with "Graduation Barbie" when she graduated from college!
  • @mandirants
    Fun fact: The "facts" in this video about Midge in the Mommy and Me product are not quite accurate. There was no "Allen" at that time. The controversy was actually that she was pregnant WITHOUT a husband or a wedding band. (I remember because I was alive then)
  • @whiteflower8711
    Toy Story 3 Barbie appears in the movie. When there showing all the variety of Barbies.
  • @sillygoose1710
    The four teenagers at the high-school resemble the Bratz 4 characters. They even have the same names
  • @cindyfoster602
    I go way back, born in 1959, just like Barbie. I mainly remember the 3 wigs that came with the doll. The next big thing was the “bendable knee” Barbie & Skipper. I would have loved a nod to those but 60+ years is a lot of memories. I just wish my Ken was Ryan ( and I do remember Allen!)
  • Anyone else notice that when the Kens are coming to the shore to fight, it kinda references “Washington Crossing the Delaware” by Emanuel Leutze?
  • Barbie and the Magic of Peagsus is hands down one of the best Barbie movies, glad to see it referenced here!

    It would be hilarious to see Slash playing guitar alongside and Ryan Gosling and all the other Kens performing the song, I'm Just Ken, at the Oscars.
