  • Summary

  • At long last, #BoyfriendMaterial is back to talk about Greta Gerwig's Barbie, and we hope this episode is Kenough for you. As Ryan Gosling returns to a supporting role, so, too, do we return to do more promo for our ongoing show, 2 Fast 2 Forever.  We talk about the bonus content that Barbie is getting for its IMAX release, cover "Canadian Gos on the Los" to look at Gosling's upcoming films, and dig into a lot of Barbie-related trivia (most of which is about Gosling).  We start with our very few critiques of the movie before turning the episode into a love-fest as we analyze the target demo(s) for Barbie, determine where on the scale from Mattel's dream movie to Greta Gerwig's dream movie this falls, and lament Hollywood learning the wrong lessons from this movie's success.  We discuss Ken as horse boy, Gosling's many great lines and improvised moments, and Greta Gerwig's "Movie Church." We wonder whether Barbie gets a cathartic release (the way Ken does) -- and whether or not that matters -- and debate whether or not this is Ryan Gosling's best performance. Joe has a revelation while talking about this movie's soundtrack. We play our many, many games.
