Though released at the box office on the same day, few would think that Barbie and Oppenheimer become such an unlikely & iconic duo on the internet. The two films are complete polar opposites in terms of both plot and genre, and don’t even have a thing in common. One movie is about the vibrant and dreamy world of Barbieland, where every girl’s childhood toys Mattel toys come to life, and the other is a devastating historical drama about the man that makes the first nuclear weapon.
However, despite the huge difference between the two films, they also share some uncanny coincidences, just like how they’re both distributed by Warner Bros., and the internet, with its own twisted and hysterical sense of humor, still somehow manages to connect and compare them into some side-splitting memes. The movies’ memes are so iconic, fans even give them a witty crossover name: Barbenheimer.
