Snarky Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 The people have spoken. F-ing idiots. don't get me wrong. Everyone loves Margot Robbie. Even I have to admit she has an alluring neck. Also, I love crazy chicks. Not sure if she is one, but her characters always seem to have at least one bolt not adjusted properly. Margot told the bosses the film could make a billion with the right director and support. i read that a while ago, and I was like "Right...." So, ... yeah. But I bring all this up to ask if people are creating any Barbie themed toons. What are there styles? Powers? Marine Corps Barbara? AR/Dev Blaster! I will not be doing so, as I never run fem toons. But I am always curious what the cool kids are doing. And, of course, please be "inspired by" and not "blatant rip off and copyright infringement issues" 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is WoW Tauren a Furry? I do love the lumbering beasts. I also have a reptile man I played for about a year+ in a tabletop campaign. Not a furry I guess. Vicious thing. Lucked into meeting a young artist, Jennifer Ando, who would go on to work for Disney. She did a colored pencil of him for $40 I tried to make a version of him for CoH. The reptile head is there, But he is a robe wearer and the options are crap. He is a Fire Blaster. Was a Mana Fire Mage in RoleMaster. (I learned to program spreadsheets to keep up with the crazy math in that game...) He had a "dark side" hidden from the group. 1) batshit crazy 2) evil mentalist. Was fun to play. And that part is available in CoH, sort of, Fire/Psi. But I hate playing close and that style is IN YOUR FACE. But...no robes. Tangent. Not a furry.

Snarky Posted July 24, 2023 Author Share Posted July 24, 2023 I just thought of one. Not making it, but the idea is funny to me Barbiella. Name inspired by Barbie and Barbarela. because she trains with barbells and was trying to build a social media following… concept; strongwoman contestant offered a strength upgrade by a corp ( prob one of usual suspects but hiding behind fake names ) and to trick her public she sats she is going to a beauty spa. Well, they do make her beautiful… but overtuned her upgrades by a factor of 10-20. She now has Super Strength and ??? Can no longer compete in contests but she has a huge following as she saved the city again snd again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Player2 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I saw a review of the Barbie movie by The Critical Drinker on YouTube, and let's just say I will not and cannot support anything about this movie. It took something timeless and pure and twisted it into something ugly. No thanks. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the others tend to err too much on the right wing side of the spectrum (not to the crazy end) which is their right but they tend to be a bit more biased. The best one is Ryan George and his pitch meetings. Those almost always hit it spot on. I just don't get how Barbie and Oppenheimer ended up conflated. Wildly different movies with wildly different audiences. I'm more Barbie myself, and can't think of anything more dreary or tedious than a jingoistic biopic by a director I've never enjoyed a single film from. Yes even Batman. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Near as I can tell, it's for no better reason than that they were released on the same weekend. I'm not a movie hound by any means, but it feels like it's been a while since we've had a doubleheader release of two heavily promoted and anticipated movies. That said, I was thwarted in my efforts to find out more by the overpowering amount of radioactive pink being lasered directly into my eyes every time I searched for anything Barbie-related. Here's hoping that my retinae will recover and I'll shake the sickly green veil through which I now see the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminara Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 LeVar Burton referred to Terry Farrell (Jadzia Dax, DS9) as Action Barbie because she was thrilled to do her own stunts and fight scenes. The Barbie that can kick your ass is the best Barbie, as far as I'm concerned. This looks more in line with @Snarky's schtick, though. And that concludes my interest in, knowledge and awareness of Barbie... unless they make a SHODAN Barbie. 3 1 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.

High_Beam Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Well. First off, I enjoyed the movie. Not perfect, had some slow moments but fun and definitely something different than the bulk of the crap that has been shovelled out there as of late. As for Barbie toons. about 8 months ago me and a number of other Nukems created a goof supergroup called Barbie's Funhouse (Barbie's and Ken's welcome, sorry GI Joe) and had Barbie named toons, some of which were around even before we did it, Kick Fighter Barbie, Riot Buster Barbie, Ball Breaker Barbie. This morning when I logged to check on my market transactions I got the alert that she had been Generic'd. Same for the bulk of the group (all of the ones mentioned above). Does it suck. Sure. But hey, I get it. But that kind of muddies the idea of the whole someone narc'd the names out (as alluded to above) because I hadn't logged onto her in more than 15 days. But again, whatever, it was meant to be funny and it was and now I shall move on. Besides, life in plastic is still fantastic. Of course I need a new name. 1 1 Girls of Nukem High - Excelsior - Tempus Fabulous, Flattery, Jennifer Chilly, Betty Beatdown, Totally Cali, Two Gun Trixie Babes of War - Excelsior - Di Di Guns, Runeslinger, Munitions Mistress, Tideway, Hard Melody, Blue Aria Several alts and of course my original from live on Freedom, High Beam Prime (someone else has her non OG name) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
