Barbie vs. Oppenheimer

A new term, “Barbeinheimer,” has been coined to describe the conflict between films from very unrelated genres. This phrase is being used by online users to group the two films together.

The fantasy movie Barbie is based on the well-known Barbie doll made by Mattel. Barbie, played by Margot Robbie, has an existential crisis and sets off on a self-discovery quest in this comedic film. Julius Robert Oppenheimer is the subject of the biopic Oppenheimer, which stars Cillian Murphy. He is the theoretical physicist in charge of developing and researching atomic bombs.
