I haven't followed any text surrounding the upcoming Barbie film, but I wonder, judging by the posters presented, if they're multiple Barbaras and Kenneths in multiple universes which represents a singular vision of beauty (i.e. internal and external), impact, and significance colliding; encouraging a broaden scope of acceptance, expression, outlook, community, and other blending of what is usually a continentalized portrait of social landscapes.

I think they're all from the same universe and represent the diversity of Barbie dolls. Just like in our world where we have so many variants of Barbie. 

Thanks 😊 for the response @Lilja K. Yeah, I peeped  that out after the fact. Mattel has been juggling diversity for a while, but I was just striving to comb out the plot. It's not so cut 'n dry figuring out the bad guy. It'll be interesting seeing why Barbie must go into the Real World 🌍 and if her prototype status will play negatively on her naivety and otherwise good nature. Will they be a grand sacrifice to preserve the ever evolving environment present (e.g., Original Barbie voluntarily diminishing to level out the play field for the other Barbie offspring)? The other Barbies are established in their own right, but there's nothing like the original, right? Much like real life, social feats are accomplished, but there's always a long ways to go. Going on so far and then no further, if progress is on the roll, what or who makes it stop? There is a lesson to be learned, because the feature is coming from Greta Gerwig. Some kinda social growth I feel like is part of it. Anyway...here are some illustrations.

As I understand from the description, the plot is that Barbie is kicked out of Barbieland because she is "not perfect enough" (but in what sense I didn't understand). The irony is that the "not perfect enough" Barbie is played by Margot Robbie😁

 

I'm also interested in how Barbie will interact with the real world. I remember an old movie with Tyra Banks as "Barbie come to live," it was pretty funny. I feel like we're in for something weirder than the Tyra movie, but still very funny. Can't wait❤️ And thanks for fan arts and pics 🌺

Interesting... thanks👍! Kicked out of Barbieland? Then perhaps it's the opposite, perhaps they're trying to 86 the original, reconfiguring the standard of beauty or alluring things with ever-changing interest? Making a timeless thing ephemeral? I guess I'll have wait until the 21st of July.
