Didn't think so many blokes give such a damn about a Barbie movie.

Apologies if I've previously mentioned the following, but Anna Faris would've been perfect for the role.

Agreed. But in the world of film, studios go with what will sell in films like these.

What kind of a world do we live in where Amy Schumer sells anything, lol?

She's still popular among females, which is a group movie studios have a tough time reeling in unless its a female aimed comedy.

Fair play to the ladies. If Schumer puts female butts in seats, then I guess that's all that matters for something like this.

Hasn't Schumer dropped out of this film anyways?

I think so.

DanTheMan · 05-24-2017, 09:33 PM

Amy dropped out several months back.

Trekkie313 · 05-24-2017, 09:34 PM

OP needs to change the title.

dgoswald · 05-24-2017, 09:49 PM

I know I mentioned this film having a Matrix-like premise, but actually it would be fair to say something similar in tone to The Truman Show would be more suitable. Off the top of my head a subtext that emphasises mental strength and independence of thought instead of herd-like group think. The "main" Barbie emancipates her less developed copies, lol. Seems like a lark if approached with a touch of wryness. Good, uplifting fun.

Definitely. Certainly far better than Amy Schumer ever could have been.

Hopefully, Hathaway says no to this.

I have a feeling this movie will essentially seal Sony's fate.

Doctor Jack · 07-25-2017, 02:54 PM

From a funny lady to one of the most irritating actresses alive. Alright then.

I hope you're referring to Anna Faris as funny and not Amy Schumer.
As for Anne Hathaway, I never understood the hatred towards her.

thecooldud · 07-26-2017, 11:37 PM

Quite right.

Amy Schumer has never been funny.

GasmaskAvenger · 08-03-2017, 06:22 AM

Anne Hathaway as Barbie would be a HUGE improvement over your average generic Amy Schumer rubbish.

She can take what she did in "Colossal" and transplant it into a more mainstream, casual audience friendly experience.
