Well. It was triggered by the BARBIE movie.
Note that I am very much onboard with Ken Hite’s argument that PLEASANTVILLE is a Cthulhu Mythos story; so when I say that BARBIE has strong horrific elements to it, I’m not actually trying to slam the flick. The tropes actually work, from Things Are Not Normal Now to Warped Reflections of Reality to The World is Saved, But Not For Me. It’s just that everything’s in… pink. I’m genuinely interested in seeing what Greta Gerwig could do more overtly along those lines.
