Barbie.

It's shorter and more commercially accessible.

On first thought I thought surely Oppenheimer, but it’s rated R & Barbie is pg13 I think. So I can’t call it. I’d still guess Oppenheimer tho tbh.

The Barbie movie looks awful and will have no legs at all IMO. It will probably do big business the first weekend and then fall off a cliff.

Barbie has the broader appeal and it’s not rated R. This is an easy answer, that being said with all the memes and jokes about a Barbie/Oppenheimer double feature I can see Oppenheimer doing better than expected also it looks really good

Barbie by a mile - it's all over Twitter and TikTok. Teens and tweens will be going in groups. This board has the hots for Oppenheimer, but Barbie is the reality.



Unless it really, really sucks.

Barbie will make a lot more. It doesn't seem like a movie any guy would want to see but apparently a lot of them do. Oppenheimer has limited appeal outside of Nolan fanboys.

I know which one I’m going to see, but there’s a multi-generational wave of little girls and former little girls who all want to see Barbie

Barbie

Gets the kids involved to see it and it will make a bunch of money

Oppenheimer is for the adults

Oppenheimer is a 3 hour R rated movie. Barbie would really need to bomb to lose.

Barbie and it won't be close. Box office tracking already showing it.

Granted I have my tickets to Oppenheimer already

My guess is that Barbie will easily do better at the box. But people will probably still watch Oppenheimer in 10 years where the Barbie movie won’t even be thought of.

Sometimes this board is so idiotic it’s embarrassing

Oppenheimer will surely be a better movie, but Barbie will slaughter it at the theaters

Mission Impossible will annihilate both of them

Barbie will probably out-earn Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer is a niche movie.

Barbie. It has wider appeal. I’m going to see Oppenheimer. I know a lot about Oppenheimer and that whole time period so that one definitely appeals to me even though I’ve mostly soured on Christopher Nolan.
