Funniest Scene in Barbie XD - "I'm not pretty anymore"

I'm not pretty anymore
I'm not stereotypical barbie pretty
note to the filmakers Margot Robbie is the wrong person to cast if you want to make this point

[@mimilook4347]

I remember watching this and when they broke the fourth wall I couldn't stop laughing

[@casualfanatic4217]

Best joke of the whole movie for me, next to War of the Kens

[@morgannine]

It’s technically 3rd wall and also kinda 4th

[@BestFilmproducer]

​@@morgannine You could also say that it's a meta-commentary inside the film.

[@BestFilmproducer]

me too

[@sethhowell3067]

I saw this in theaters twice, and both times the audience just howled with laughter

[@livmendel]

omg hi seth

[@connormong4936]

It read my god damn mind when I heard the line. Perfect 4th wall break.

[@Rachel-xu4br]

Scene hits a little different for me now. In the theatres this was hilarious, still funny, but recently found out Margot Robbie actually for a good portion of her life thought she was genuinely ugly and still holds onto a little insecurity from it. I would imagine some of it coming out now, especially since recently when Barbie came out a lot of people started coming out of the wood work to call her "ugly" or "mid".

[@bluecollarmenproductions]

I know that was just weird

[@valhatan3907]

Could be another case of reactance bias.

[@lennypayne4241]

That just goes to show, you can gaslight people into believing anything about themselves, no matter how obviously untrue it is.

[@SYMBIOTEDINOSAUR]

She is mid. Only non white guys who will just say that any white woman that's above three think that she's super hot because she is blonde. Blonde hair doesn't give you magical or make you better or higher value if it does then I really got cheated

[@andraw4002]

​@@SYMBIOTEDINOSAURI have to disagree, but I see ypur point. In some pictures, you can see her age, and people should understand that other people are entitled to their opinions.

[@ramirosarachu341]

I love how Margot's hair just keeps moving and stuff, like the scene keeps happening while Greta Gerwig says the words, like time gets frozen but at the time it kind doesn't

[@IndomitableT]

The narration is by Helen Mirren, not Greta Gerwig.😌

[@gorrow1990]

My theater on opening night roared with laughter at this joke. My favorite joke in the movie.

[@captaintalon4485]

Helen Mirren is perfect as the narrator

[@kittyk1014]

Yeah, everyone in the theatrical laughed their asses off at part. 😅

[@p0pp4]

This was in fact my favorite bit in the movie. The rest of it was great but this bit slayed.

[@theanimerican]

I just grinned at the narration part. It hits a bit different if a version of this scene happens with you in it irl.

[@victoriaherndon6857]

Disagree with the note to the film makers. This hits on the very real feeling of not being what you are "supposed" to be. Shes supposed to be perfect barbie but even she cant live up to that. This wouldn't work if she was played by someone who was obviously in fact not barbie pretty to begin with.

[@MinorityGamerReport1]

It’s a joke. The movie is a comedy.

[@victoriaherndon6857]

@@MinorityGamerReport1 Yeah, I've actually seen the movie now. About half the movie is "haha" jokes and the other is pretty valid social commentary. I feel like this was meant as a "haha" knowing Barbie was originally going to be objectively unattractive but it didn't land that way with me, I stand by my previous comment.

[@widM_]

100% agree with you. The "note to the filmmakers" was not funny to me cause it missed the point and it turned this otherwise heartbreaking scene into a joke. The most beautiful girls are always the most insecure. They think they will never be enough. Being physically attractive doesn’t mean you are happy with yourself and that you don't struggle with self-esteem and self-worth.

[@galll_0375]

Imo this note was more for the audience and especially for little girls. Cause they could think "but if Margot Robbie is considered ugly then how much uglier am I?" So it was to me a funny way to give the right message to the people (everyone can feel ugly) by still giving more insicure people the confirmation that Margot Robbie is in fact beautiful and so no you're not ugly, it's her that is just stunning. Plus if the line wasn't there there would have been a lot of people saying the exact same thing online like "but cmon she's Margot Robbie she can't feel ugly" or things like this one, so it's also a fun way of anticipating them by turning their criticism into comedy

[@samosullivan1744]

I’ll never forget how the audience absolutely HOWLED with laughter when I saw this in the cinema! I swear some nearly fell out of their seats!

[@nickyoung630]

I worked at a theater when this movie came out and I gotta say the happiest customers I ever saw were the ones seeing this movie.

[@Guchi2772]

I just started laughing when she said she was not pretty anymore

[@SavSpdDemon]

I never realized the Narrator broke the fourth wall until a year later today. XD

[@pgj1997]

Helen Mirren would be excellent at CinemaSins. **Ding**

[@hannaengle]

i saw this in theaters and everyone was like "what...." and then burst out laughing when they broth the fourth wall lol

[@InternetDarkLord]

I never thought Margot Robbie would say that one.

[@grimshock6983]

The Oscars are for fart sniffers. Gerwig deserved a nomination

[@skiks3562]

There's breaking the fourth wall. Then there is this.

[@Yibambe.]

One of my favorite moments in an amazing film!

[@girlishgamer1]

The audience was howling when I saw this in theaters.

[@BestFilmproducer]

Hands down the funniest scene of the entire movie! Why did I watch it solo my first time? Darn it.

[@zyxwut321]

Margot Robbie is LITERALLY the closest reincarnation we've ever had to Grace Kelly and she thinks SHE'S not pretty?!?!?

[@maccichlid]

I first saw this on an airplane, and just LOST IT. I had to pause the movie until I could get myself reset and calmed down again. Definitely best line of the movie.

[@VaderTheWhite]

I turned to my friend in the theater, made that point, and then the film echoed my sentiment. I laughed so hard.

[@NIDELLANEUM]

There is also a genius inside joke in the fact that she talks to America Ferrera, whose most iconic role is Ugly Betty, even though she herself is not ugly

[@G0shaKarr]

She looks like Luis Guzmán (Gomez from Wednesday)

[@NIDELLANEUM]

@@G0shaKarr Wednesday Ferrera

[@OpticalSorcerer]

The thing about this is that the actress needed to be beautiful; if she was conventionally unattractive, it'd be super controversial for the world to acknowledge her as such.

[@yuzuki2385]

No fucking way dude, lmfao The fourth wall break had me rolling

[@dimitriosdesmos4699]

she is always pretty....also dont forget !!! it is a never ending story !!!....pretty for ever.

[@DamirBabic-xc5po]

Barbie: I,m not pretty anymore! Me: I,m 36 still single no women wants me!!!

[@theshillneckedlizard8364]

Can anyone confirm or deny if Helen Mirren adlibbed this line? I have heard both stories.

[@revinhatol]

She was right for once, she's wonderful just the way she is.

[@ithamarlowe6158]

Even pretty people feel insecure

[@deltavagen9796]

That's called "humble brag" of course she knows she is Hot, but it's more symphatic for it to say you are Not

[@SawyerFools]

Funniest scene is easily the figure out how to build a wall horizontal

[@BrianLyons315]

0:20 My favorite part.

[@rezset_]

If this is the funniest scene, I'm glad I haven't watched to movie yet. Probably never will.

[@Brownyan]

I wonder what allan was thinking hearing that

[@Quietu]

Naw “white savior barbie” was the best part of this scene. 🤣😂🤣

[@FreedomCinema88]

I am 100 % sure that line wasn't in the original script. 😁

[@theflipflapchannelcreatedb8160]

This scene is outstandingly way beyond so so funny and hilarious and note to the filmmakers Margaret Robbie is the best person to actually capture Barbie's crying emotion😂😂😂

[@konstantin9303]

I've never heard of a movie called "Barbie XD".

[@m_entertainment]

When I was writing the video title, I was still smiling and laughing inside by how hilarious the scene is, so I added the XD part to the title to reflect my reaction to the scene.

[@yaronkl]

This is a genius scene And line

[@Rowhoonki]

KATE MCKINNON IS SAUR REAL FOR THAT

[@cameronjosephvideos5942]

Maybe she's the wrong person for this specific line to work as effectively as it could, but its a Barbie movie. People are going to expect Barbie to look like Barbie, the original Barbie, the one people think of when they hear the word Barbie.

[@marcuscarana9240]

That's how a lot of pretty teenage girls react when they see they have a pimple or gained 1 pound of weight.

[@CookieCurls]

I felt like the commentary was unnecessary. All women feel ugly and insecure sometimes no matter how beautiful they are. I interpreted this scene as, even Barbie can feel ugly because of the pressures that are put on all of us. It was the moment that made her relatable, and then the commentary threw her right out of relatable again 😢

[@justforfunlol2258]

But your well being depends on you actually being pretty, isn't the point of the scene to grow out of needing that validation?

[@CookieCurls]

@@justforfunlol2258 yeah that’s the message after she goes through the painful part.

[@ananyomukherjeeixd281]

​@@CookieCurls Judging by the fact that women have so many makeup products , women care about outer beauty far too much.

[@declaracionespolemicas]

​@@ananyomukherjeeixd281 Maybe because women's worth and value is judged based on her looks and youth. The pressure gets even worse when we're bombarded, practically since birth, by images of impossible beauty standards created by the use of filters, photoshop, facetune, etc. all over social media, both celebrities and influencers creating this false expectation that you'll achieve flawless poreless skin by using X make up product or X skin care rutine. It's hard to be unattractive in a superficial society that only cares about looks, for both genders, but at least if you're a man you can somewhat compensate by getting a great career, making money, having confidence and great humor.

[@ananyomukherjeeixd281]

@@declaracionespolemicas Pretty sure that those beauty products you talk about are promoted by women themselves and they support superficiality. The filters and colors are also used by women the most so at the end of the day only Women are to blame for this issue. Considering that Men beauty shows exist shows that Men beauty matters too to a certain extent just not a makeup or filter based beauty(unlike women). I don't know which country you live in. But in India majority of modern girls have jobs and rate of housewives getting married is decreasing, so it's very obvious that Job and intelligence is far more important than something as cheap as makeup.

[@PeanutsAndSanrioFan]

I laughed so hard when I saw this

[@ZomBabeZoe]

Also we got a slight aussie twang in "stereotypical" and I kinds love it...even Margot isn't always perfect

[@TheSaltyLibrarian]

I noticed her accent slipping quite a bit during her "dumpy" phase and I figured "eh, given how this is the part of the movie where she's failed at being an idea of perfect, not being able to maintain a consistent accent kind of compliments the vibe."

[@RonPaul42069]

Stereoteepical

[@domarce]

She talked about her American accent in the recent Cillian Murphy interview and how she has to enunciate her Rs since she's Australian, funny to see she has to do it even while crying hehe

[@Lapusso650]

OMG I didn’t notice until you said it😂😮

[@neo_asa]

Wow, how’d you catch that? didn’t even notice😮 Impressive

[@user-ee6ks4zg2t]

Oh Margot, you are so mistaken.

[@isanelseem3057]

For some reason i wanted to say it was the person in blue behind them who said that Margot Robbie is the wrong person to cast but that may be because Kate McKinnon moved her head. :)

[@mulqueen2023]

God this movie has so many tongue in cheek jokes and perfect 4th wall breaks. So many rages on this being "woke" but I'm glad the vast majority of us just went and saw a really fun and light hearted movie that did carry a really sweet message.

[@pastelharmonies]

Me and my mom (and the rest of the theater) died when this happened lol

[@ChimeraLotietheBunny]

[@dlobelow760]

Is the movie a half assed attempt at social commentary? Yes. Is it funny? Also yes

[@Alicia-vq8jg]

Me when I’m drunk so I don’t drink 🚱

[@user-pi3hv3ew6i]

as a male to be honest they really did choose the wrong actress for that line

[@susanplatt5331]

We don't care.

[@maximiliansmith8260]

Isnt that Ugly Betty

[@adventureswithaurora]

Am I the only one here who thinks that maybe this part is a trifle ineffective? Like, we're clearly in the middle of an “emotional” scene, and then the narrator chooses that moment to break the fourth wall and say a funny/quippy line about the attractiveness of the actor? I don't know, but to me, that takes away from the emotional and serious value.

[@sarkyblueeyes9357]

I think it acknowledges that a significant portion of the audience will be thinking, ‘Margot is beautiful. What the hell is she doing having insecurities like a regular girl?’ when the truth is, picture perfect or not, we all have insecurities. Even someone beautiful enough to play Barbie. Of course this moment would land without the joke, but it grounds it in my opinion, making Barbie very very human. Even the most beautiful humans hate their appearance in weak moments/ cannot see what everyone else sees.

[@adventureswithaurora]

@@sarkyblueeyes9357 That makes sense. I appreciate your response! 😁

[@zeeshawnali4078]

I don't get it.

[@gigger6141]

Damn that was lame, but there are some good jokes in a movie

[@hexgirl_x]

Unpopular opinion, i didnt like this part, just because you're self aware about it doesnt mean that gives you a pass to do the thing anyway. Its like oh we acknowledge that Margot Robbie is extremely pretty and her complaining about it doesnt make sense but we put it in anyway, but we made a meta joke so its fine! idk its till dumb lol

[@frances1227]

What do you mean? What’s wrong with her saying she’s not pretty

[@hexgirl_x]

@@frances1227 bc the trope of stupidly good looking actresses in movies being all like "I'm not even pretty :( " is so overdone and just bc the film maker acknowledges it, doesnt make it clever, it's just acknowledging something that has been an annoying trope for ages and expecting a pass for doing so

[@jqa16]

And it's a meta commentary about it. So it's bringing the message to Hollywood while being funny to the audience at the same time. That is incredible and straightforward writing.

[@alpacaofthemountain8760]

This movie is very meta. It’s actually extremely meta

[@hexgirl_x]

@@jqa16 no i get its meta but theyre still making the same nonsensical patriarchal point while acting like being meta about it gives them a pass to do so

[@fakehappyfilms]

this and the zack snyder justice league jokes had my theater roaring

[@paulomipatel3177]

I dont understand why this is funny. Wanna explain?

[@reckonerwheel5336]

Subverts expectation. Normally in a movie the beautiful actress says something like what’s said here “I’m not pretty” and the audience rolls their eyes because it’s untrue, but this movie actually has a voice from above figuratively rolling eyes with us.

[@paulomipatel3177]

I actually found this scene the most annoying in the movie. Margot Robbie is truly beautiful! However, this scene is not trying to make her look „not pretty“ with the perfectly laid hair and glowing skin. It’s kind of fake, kind of humble bragging and a little weird if you think that she is the producer of the film and wanted the empowering message to be that she can never be not gorgeous

[@mr.mediocregamer9653]

I thought it was really cringe that an actually unattractive woman had to reassure a living goddess that she was pretty enough. Felt a little too on the nose.
