    Barbie was worth seeing in the theater as well, to be honest. I’m a middle aged guy and it was a great experience to see that with the women all in pink cheering opening weekend. Like seeing a Marvel, DC, or Star Wars movie. The energy was palpable.

      I saw Barbie at iPic because my wife wanted to see it in the theater. That movie is solidly in the “watch at home” category for me.

        That’s not what they’re talking about. They specified the energy of the theater at a specific point in time, not the movie itself. I tend to agree with them. It was really fun going and being part of the event that was Barbie opening weekend. It was the best cinema experience I’d had in years.

          I went opening weekend too, but didn’t experience any of that. Maybe because we went to iPic instead of a regular theater like AMC.
