To date, the Barbie® movie has brought in a total of 1.45 billion U.S. dollars worldwide. It was the highest-grossing movie of 2023, the highest-grossing movie directed by a woman ever, the fifteenth biggest release in motion picture history, and Warner Bros.’ highest-grossing film of all time.

And yet, Golden Globes comedian host Jo Koy called it a movie “based on a plastic doll with big boobs.” Ugh.
