Barbie (2023) Plot Theory

Ok so the second trailer has come out for a couple of hours now. It still does not explicitly tell us the plot for the upcoming Barbie movie, but I have a theory about what it might be about:

So, when I was watching the movie, I got these weird "The Spongebob Squarepants movie (2004)" vibes, weird, I know. At first, I just thought it was because both had this self-aware humour but then I rewatched the trailer and it all made sense

(And no, this is not a Boss Baby tweet situation, I swear I have seen at least 2 more movies than Spongebob)

My theory starts here, where you can see a sign that says "Real World. This Way" Barbie and Ken are driving a car that seems to go towards the real world.

This is semi-confirmed by the official promo account for Barbie The Movie making a difference between Barbies and Kens and Humans. This means that Barbie's path crosses with humans, and it might not be too crazy to assume that through the "Real World" road.

This would contextualize the video of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gossling filming Barbie that became viral last year:

Here, all of the extras are wearing "real world" clothes, there is no color coordination or colorful outfits, and they stare at Barbie and Ken as if they'd seen an alien.

So by now, we have established that they go to the real world. The next question would be: why would Barbie go to the real world? Well, I did not need to look that far for that answer, because the new trailer's description gives us the answer:

"To live in a Barbie Land is to be a perfect being in a perfect place. Unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you're a Ken."

So maybe the Barbie world with its colourful and gleeful cheer, and idyllic views becomes too stale for Barbie. Or maybe she has an identity crisis; as we see in the promos, all of the Barbies have a description: "This Barbie is a doctor", "This Barbie has a Pulitzer" What if Barbie wants to know who she is besides "just" Barbie?

OK OK but what about the Spongebob movie thing? I hear you say.

Well rewatching the second trailer for Barbie, it suddenly clicked. This movie, just like Spongebob, features two endearingly naive and charismatic characters going for a "big boy" adventure, where they go to the outside world, facing real-world problems and trying to overcome them to the best of their abilities.

Or maybe I just associated them because both of them have iconic cars idk

So in conclusion, Barbie the Movie will be a self-aware comedy about Barbie and Ken going to the real world, having comedy but also heartfelt moments between Barbie and the humans as they learn from each other and form a friendship for life.

But hey that's just a theory....a (MatPat if you're reading this please hire me) Barbie Theoryyyyyyy

Only one thing I am sure of, I smell a banger folks.

It's Barbin' Time!

Lorde thoroughly describing an existential crisis and then just following it with "I don't know, maybe I'm just stoned at the nail salon" has the same vibe as me sending the most vulnerable texts to my friends with a "lol" at the end just in case it gets too real
