If it works on a small scale, GO BIG! And Barbie was hardly small scale. So, what’s next? Well, of course there will be myriad Barbie sequels. And MATTEL (makers of Barbie) have some 60 movies (based on their toys) in the works. (Dwayne Johnson is working on “Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots.” J.J. Abrams is working on “Hot Wheels.” May God help us all.) Surely though, there’s something more that Barbie can bring to us. Something larger. A bigger universe where icons, designed to objectify women, are gathered aan somehow “re-worked” and “re-purposed” to, ostensibly, empower women! Don’t ask any questions. Just, go with it. It’s gonna be genius!
