From the comments on the TikTok post, it’s clear plenty of people like the concept, with some even saying they want to see a real Barbenheimer movie. Those dreams will come to life because, in November 2023, it was announced Charles Band, known for directing low-budget fare like “Gingerdead Man vs. Evil Bong,” is developing a legitimate “Barbenheimer” movie. It likely won’t delve into how the patriarchy has degraded women or what it means to have a world-ending weapon put into the hands of the worst people possible. It’ll probably be sheer lunacy, which might be what the world needs right now.
The film will see a doll venture from her peaceful toy land to the human world (much like in “Barbie”) and, after seeing how dolls are treated, decides to nuke the humans (kind of like “Oppenheimer”). As with Band’s other works, like “Bad CGI Gator,” it’d be best not to take this project too seriously.
As of this writing, there’s no release date for the real “Barbenheimer” movie. It probably won’t star Margot Robbie or Cillian Murphy, but it should be a fun way to keep the Barbenheimer phenomenon going just a little bit longer.
