The point about the Mattel CEO was literally a joke in the movie. The director clearly agreed with you.

Also: Mattel execs are on record as saying the Barbie movie isn't feminist. Presumably they don't want to annoy right wing and non-western audiences too much.

Don't get me wrong, fun movie. But there are plenty of reasons to be sceptical of its feminist credentials.

But hey, what do I know. I'm just Ken.
