Good news, Barbie fans: the biggest blockbuster of the year is now streaming on Max. This concludes the year’s victory lap for Greta Gerwig’s monster hit, which grossed over a billion dollars worldwide at the box office, is already breaking nomination records for awards season, and became a complete cultural phenomenon. It’s only appropriate, then, that Max makes a real meal out of the film coming to the platform, with lots of bonus features to thrill and delight subscribers.
Yes, Max is going temporarily pink to embrace Barbie fever, as well as adding new Barbie profile icons and an entire Barbie Land Collection. That includes newly curated lists “Every Night is Girls’ Night” (with titles like Gossip Girl and Sex And The City), “More From the Cast” (with Ryan Gosling’s Blue Valentine and America Ferrera’s Real Women Have Curves), “This Barbie Is…” (with shows like Veep and The Nanny), “Mojo Dojo Casa House” (with home improvement shows) and “I Am Kenough” (with titles like Barry and Good Will Hunting).
There are also exclusive “Behind the Sequins” featurettes like “Becoming Barbie” with Margot Robbie; “Barbie Transportation Scenes” which reveal the crafting of Barbie and Ken’s journey to the real world; “Greta’s Vision” about Gerwig’s approach to bringing Barbie World to life; a behind-the-scenes look at the “I’m Just Ken” music video, “Musical Make-Believe” behind-the-scenes looks at the Disco scene, the Ken Battle, and Ken’s Ballet; and a “We Are Barbie” segment where the stars “discuss what makes each of their Barbie characters unique.” There’s even an “interactive component” called “Let’s Play Dress Up” where users can “hover over icons such as lipstick and high heeled shoes” which, when clicked upon, will surprise users with their next title to watch.
Max is also premiering a new version of the film, Barbie With ASL, which was created using “research and feedback from the Deaf community, as well as counsel from community leaders,” per a press release from the streamer. This version features interpretation from ASL performer Leila Hanaumi. All in all, if you’re not tired of Barbie yet, there’s lots more Barbie to enjoy in Barbie Land. Bon voyage!

Never heard of it. Is it any good?
More like Bore-bie, amirite?*checks notes*I am, evidently, not right.
I saw it in the theaters and it was good.
More like Greta Earwig!Wait, that doesn’t even make sense.
No, you’re right. At least that’s what they call it in Baltimore.
I havn’t seen this movie, but i’ll tell you its a boring chick flick for pre-teens. ymmv
Good in the sense that every movie has good things about it, sure.
Just remember, if you do anything to explain why you like this movie, you’re just as bad as the guy mansplaining The Godfather. I don’t make the rules.
How is 2001 not roped in? It’s literally the template for the opening portion of the film.
It is there’s a category of things that inspired Barbie and 2001 is included.
(Beefcake The Mighty voice)Here in Barbie Barbie Land, EVERYTHING IS PINK!
Rare hamburgers for everyone!
What’s the chance the three people still subscribed to Max are the same three who didn’t see the movie?
