Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt hysterically roasted each other over Barbenheimer during 2024 Oscars

Okay, this was hilarious.

“Barbenheimer” was the biggest film event of 2023, and two of its central players had a blast ribbing each other over being in the rival films.

Emily Blunt, who played Kitty Oppenheimer in Oppenheimer, and Ryan Gosling, who played Ken in Barbie, both got a really fun moment in Sunday’s 96th Oscars ceremony while introducing a tribute to stunt workers.

The two roasted each other over their movies, as Oppenheimer has fared better at the awards but Barbie made more money and led the cultural conversation.

The two will be in this May’s The Fall Guy, and we’re already loving the chemistry these two have while joking with each other.

Meet Saw Patrol, the new Saw/PAW Patrol double feature movie meme inspired by Barbenheimer

First came Barbenheimer. Now, it’s time for … Saw Patrol.

With “Barbenheimer” making a boatload of money at the box office this weekend, studios are about to try and find the next meme-ified double feature for movie fans to flock to this year.

How about a combination of the new Saw and PAW Patrol films?

Some internet folks discovered that Saw X, the latest film in the long-running horror franchise, and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie, the latest film adaptation of the Nickelodeon animated series, come out on the same date in September.

Yes, both films are set to debut on Sept. 29, which has created an all-new double feature movie meme: “Saw Patrol.”

While this might seem like a far-more unlikely double bill than Barbie and Oppenheimer, the studios that distribute these films seem to be running with the gag.

Well, we’re not exactly sure that “Saw Patrol” is going to take off quite like “Barbenheimer” did, but why not?

Going to the movies is one of the best things in the world, and if this gets people excited about it, then all the merrier. Bring on “Saw Patrol!”

Just don’t, y’know, bring along the kids after PAW Patrol.

Everyone is absolutely loving Barbie star Ryan Gosling’s big musical number I’m Just Ken

Can you feel the Kenergy?

As Barbie makes historic amounts of money at the global box office as part of the “Barbenheimer” phenomenon, the film’s big musical number is catching everyone off guard.

Ryan Gosling’s big song during the film’s climax, “I’m Just Ken,” is one of the film’s major highlights, complete with multiple set changes, a wide array of colorful costumes and Gosling belting the new song of the summer.

Gosling’s performance in the film is as great as you’ve heard, the perfect blend of gullible beach bro and cocky insecurity that boots the actor’s gift for physical comedy and overemoting at the best-possible moments. He does Michael Keaton’s Ken voice work in Toy Story 3 justice.

You can get a glimpse of the song and Gosling’s performance below.

With everyone seemingly going out to the movies this weekend to see the Barbie and Oppenheimer double feature, everyone’s got “I’m Just Ken” on the brain.

How could you not? It’s the cinematic earworm of the year (sorry, “Peaches” from The Super Mario Bros. Movie, you had a good run).

Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce among NFL stars asked to choose between seeing Barbie or Oppenheimer

Where will Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Kirk Cousins be on Barbenheimer weekend?

A few NFL stars shared where they’ll fall on “Barbenheimer” weekend, as Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce weighed in on the moviegoing experience, as did Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins.

Mahomes was supportive of both films. However, since he is a girl dad, he said he’ll be seeing Barbie with his daughter. Kelce said he’d be seeing Barbie because, well, he doesn’t know what Oppenheimer is.

On the other side, Cousins said he’s a fan of real-life stories told on film so he’d be trying to get in a screening of Oppenheimer ahead of Vikings training camp.

As a bonus, NFL personalities Emmanuel Acho, Nate Burleson and MJ Acosta shared that they were all planning on seeing Barbie.

Are you more like Mahomes and Kelce and ready to see Barbie, or are you more like Cousins and ready to see Oppenheimer. We fully recommend you check out both when you can, perhaps in a double feature this weekend.

Maybe someone can show Kelce an Oppenheimer trailer while we’re at it?
