The sole purpose of this movie is to sell toys, just like the 'Transformers', 'Star Wars' and 'Toy Story' movies are.............

Every once in a while Bill Maher gets it right. Not very often...but more often than many “progressives”.

If a 22 year old Helen Mirren was playing Barbie I might spring for the DVD (or even the bluray).Otherwise...I'll take a rain check.

Maher denounced “Barbie” for being out of touch with reality. He said the term “Zombie Lie” means it’s either “something that never was true, but certain people refuse to stop saying it” or “something that USED to be true but no longer is, but certain people pretend it’s still true. “‘Barbie’ is this kind of #ZombieLie,” he explained.

The purpose of the movie is indoctrination...

Not that long ago Maher would have said, “Hey, rubes, let me clue you in: IT’S JUST A MOVIE,” and his audience would have howled, and clapped like seals.

And that’s quite important. Lefties don’t listen to Tucker Carlson. But they do listen to Bill Maher.

As a side note, the older Maher gets, the more he sounds like an old-time classical liberal. Another good thing.

Me too. In fact, I think I'll not see it several more times.

““And people who don’t go along with zombie lies did not take some red pill — just staying true to CURRENT reality.”

I thought taking the red pill allowed one to see reality.

This has the quality of: I’m not a MAGA Republican. I’m just a Republican who wants to make America great again. Or, I’m no evangelical Christian. I’m just a Christian who believes in the Great Commission.

Poor Bill Maher. He’s old, and no longer one of the cool kids so he’s resorted to telling the truth on occasion.

Somewhere to the left of Mao.

And his type were the ones dissing Rush Limbaugh, for saying these same things years ago.

Well,remember the thief who was crucified next to Christ. He repented at the last minute and was saved. The Big Guy...The Former Twelfth Lady...Sniveling Little Schitt...and others...will be yelling “Heil Mao Tse Tung!” on their death beds. That might not be the case with Bill Maher.
