The movie is awesome, but it gets me down thinking about how many shitty toy "but with grown-up humour" movies we're going to get after this, just because now every studio in the world is going to join the bandwagon.
Mattel already has over 40 movies in the docket: https://comicbook.com/movies/news/mattel-toy-movies-in-development-barbie-hot-wheels/
Barbie was meant to be their flagship to usher in the flood. "We'll start off with a bang to get people thinking that the rest of our toy movie offshoots will be worth watching," is what I take away from it.
Off-topic, but that site should be embarrassed to state that Tom Hanks voiced Buzz Lightyear.
