When life imitates memes.
On July 21, two very different films were released internationally: “Barbie» Greta Gerwig and «Oppenheimer» Christopher Nolan. Of course, this was not ignored: a meme appeared on the Web about "Barbenheimer”, a crossover of two universes. Visualization was not long in coming: the films started pretty quickly unite using neural networks.
The joke played into the hands of both films: "Barbie" is already became the highest-grossing film of the year, and Oppenheimer is now in third place in terms of box office for 2023 and already collected more than "Start".
By data portal JoBlo, soon "Barbenheimer" from a meme will turn into a real movie: a comedy with that name is already in development. The film is being produced by Full Moon Features, which produces category B films (The Puppet Master, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Dead Hate the Living). There is already a synopsis:
In the depths of Dolesville, a group of jaded puppets, led by the brilliant Dr. Barbenheimer, are building an atomic bomb. Their mission? Overthrow the patriarchy once and for all! But as the battle of the sexes escalates, isn't Barbenheimer and her pack of beauties in for a bigger explosion than they bargained for?
