So Barbie was a huge hit at the box office. I thought it would be a bomb, but I was totally wrong. Barbie had the 4th biggest opening in movie history with nearly 150 million dollars at the box office domestically and nearly 350 million dollars globally. The movie only cost around 140 million dollars to make so it's already in the green the first week out. So yes Barbie is trending, so let's jump on the Barbie bandwagon.
