Is Mattel really going to let Barbie be either A: some raunchy R rated comedy, or B: Some kind of "message" movie for goodness sake?

all movies are "message" movies, whether they want to be or not. better Amy's message than the one Barbie has been giving girls for 50 years

They could actually have Jennifer Lawrence play all the "perfect" Barbies.

I think this is a casting & movie direction mistake - I'd punt the movie name and go generic with their plans b/c the name will be negative

good summary - I agree with you 100% (on the no dolls thing and Enchanted too) :)
