   I am not a deep person. Despite all the negative vibes surrounding the two films, I feel I'm be able to enjoy and looking forward to watching both when they are released in Japan.

   We shouldn't take the Barbie movie so serious. It's all about making money and selling merch.

   As for the Oppenheimer movie, I think I'd better watch BBC's Oppenheimer TV series (1980) and the American TV series "Manhattan" (2014) before I go to a theater.

     Summer to remember that to the Barbie film team and to Hollywood more than 200,000 death by the end of 1945 (and half a million so far) by two atrocious bombs are something they feel comfortable joking about to promote their precious summer blockbuster.

     I am so, so disappointed. I wasn't hoping the Barbie film to be eye-openingly feminist or anything but was still looking forward to a mostly guilt-free fun time watching it. I surely didn't expect this.
