While we're all talking about both the WGA/SAG strikes and Barbenheimer, I hope everyone realises that the entire reason this exists is because Christopher Nolan stood up to Warner Bros against pushing their entire cinematic slate onto streaming in 2021, by taking his next film to another studio.

Then, as an act of petty revenge, they decided to deliberately move their single biggest movie of 2023 (and arguably WB's biggest non-Batman/Harry Potter movie in DECADES) directly onto his release date.

So no, the Barbie Marketing isn't "so good it helped another movie". The Barbie Marketing Machine was specifically designed to get back at someone who dared to stand up against WB executives.

It was a calculated move of malice by soulless corporate fuckeroonies.

By the most wonderful @baneme-art who was a delight to work with to create this for my best friends birthday!! It went down a treat!! Thank you again ♥ ♥ ♥

Could we love the Oppenheimer cast anymore?

sometimes i’ll just be chilling and then i’ll remember that buck once tried to crawl his way to eddie’s grave and that he once put himself in the line of fire to get eddie out and that eddie once made sure buck was out of danger before antagonizing the man holding them hostage and that he sprinted up a metal ladder in the middle of a lightning storm to get to buck even though he’d already been knocked off the truck once and then i won’t be chilling anymore

“You know, your dad is… he’s tough as nails. He’s a fighter, right? […then he’s going to be okay, right?] Yeah, I think so, buddy.” // “It’s going to be okay, Buck.”

You find yourself stuck in an elevator with your icon and your username. How happy are you?
