I Am Fucking Ecstatic About The Barbie Movie‼️

Y e s

I wish she was more than just a girl locked in a room in the storyline with the Core. Id like to see more of her interactions with them. See the fascination vs responsibility conflict. I like the sidekick idea. She could be their guy on the inside. Could even leave them clues or sth. There were some really cool theories about her relationship with the Core during the hiatus. I want THAT.

I genuinely think s3 needed to be longer. Some things felt rushed, and it was just sad bc I saw real potential in them. Maybe if they had had more time they could have gone deeper with this storyline and gave Marcy (and Darcy) more screen time.

Also, I feel like s3 made it seem like she wasn't as heroic as Anne and Sasha. But the girl has got a statue in Newtopia and a no-fail mission record. She is awesome okay? She's a fighter. I am so excited to read about her adventures in the journal!

Still, I am glad that at least defeating Darcy wasn't the final final battle. That we got to see Marcy be awesome in her calamity form before the end of the show. If not for that, the ending would probably have been really dissapointing for Marcy fans.

I just came to a horrible realization. Marcy in season three was a Damsel in Distress.

Seriously think about it: aside from the finale, her only purpose was to sit around and wait to be rescued. Yes it would have been necessary to a certain extent no matter what, with the whole "being stabbed" business, but then they had to go ahead with that idiotic possession subplot and make Darcy an endgame villain. Marcy's brief mental world subplot in All In didn't even give us one of those "fighting the illusion from inside your mind" plots: she just resigned herself to her fate and hoped her girls would save her.

There's a very good reason the Damsel in Distress has fallen out of favor in recent years. Aside from the underlying chauvinism, a Damsel in Distress usually isn't a character so much as a lazy plot device, a prize for the hero to win after they've slain the dragon or killed the evil wizard or whatever.

The only thing worse than creating a character whose sole purpose is to be a Damsel in Distress is making an established character into a Damsel in Distress. And they did it to Marcy: a deep, complex character who was used amazingly in season two. They introduced Marcy as a deliberate foil to Sasha, gave us several episodes to get to know and love her, then dropped that massive bombshell in True Colors.

And how did they follow up that absolutely brilliant storytelling? They made Marcy into a fucking Damsel in Distress, whose only purpose for 90% of season three was to sit around and wait to be rescued. And for some goddamn reason they had to wait until the penultimate episode to do so, leaving no time for Marcy to interact with her best friends or truly be involved in the story.

Happy Marcanne

(Psst... I gave Marcy a Steven Universe earring. It is barely visible but I rewatched the movie this week and wanted to include it bc she is totally a fan imo)
