Mattel trying to make their own Cinematic Universe because of Barbie made Billions

Postby Netherrealmer » 06 Aug 2023, 21:41

Mattel is a Billion dollar company and the Barbie made them defeat DC and Marvel movies. It breaks even on its 1st day. Now it made 1 Billion dollars in a short period of time. Now Mattel wants their other toys to becomes movies. They cannot use the name MCU because duh Marvels owns it. So they can call it Barbeiverse. The movies that will be successful will have a crossover.

Mattel will make a movie out of Hot Wheels. Its a popular toy for little boys. Its a race track with toy cars.

How can they make movie out of toy cars with no lore? They will make an action movie with racing similar to Fast and Furious Franchise.

Heist movies are popular, so Mattel will also make a Movie based on the Card game Uno.
Image
-----
Next to Barbie, The next most popular Mattel character is He-man. A He-man movie is now in the works.
Image
I think any of the Hemsworth brothers will make a good He-man. fans of his Sister She-ra will be sad though because She-ra no longer belongs to Mattel. They sold her to Dreamworks and Amazon.
---

One of the most popular toys during 1960s is Major Matt Mason, he was the inspiration for Buzz Lightyear in Toy Story. Tom Hanks will be involved in this movie. He is an Astronaut who got stranded to another planet and became its hero.
Image

Max Steel is one of the other Superheroes of Mattel, He had a popular cartoon series and a Live action movie of him was made before but it flopped. Mattel will give him a try again thanks to Barbie movie. He is similar to Ironman but he is a teenage boy and his armor is nanobots.
Image

American Girl Doll- These expensive collectors dolls comes with a story book whenever you buy one. These girls are from different historical periods. All of them are given tragic back stories,So the girl who buys them will love them as a best friend. They are suppose to be 12 year old girls.

Image

Kaya the Native American girl, her beloved Horse died tragically.
Felicity Witness the gruesome deaths of American Civil War.
Josefina's mama died from the American Spanish War, She buried the corpse of her mother
Kirsten have a bestfriend who died of cholera... She also witness the Cholera Pandemic of 1854
Addy was a slave of escaped plantations because she is tired of getting whipped
Samantha is a rich victorian girl but her life will change because both her parents die.
Kit is Starving because she is from the Great depression, she is also homeless
Molly's father is a Prisoner of war during World War 2. At age 12 she volunteers to contribute to War efforts.

I don't know how they will make a movie out of this... How will these girls meet? Time travel? All I know about these dolls is how their books traumatized my younger sister. :lol:


Street Sharks is a possibility too. Teenage brothers got abducted and experimented on by a mad scientist and he turned them into sharks.Image
They are like Ninja Turtles but were originally humans.

I think Mattel should play it safe first and Make a Ken movie or a Barbie Sequel first before gambling with their other toys

Other Toys that will happen:

Magic 8 Ball horror movie
Image

Rock em Sock em Robot starring Vin Diesel

Sounds interesting, I suppose some large companies can make huge additional profits by expanding their brand into the movie business. Do you know if all of those movies will be targeted towards children, or will some of them have a more adult appeal?

I think their target audience are nostalgic adults who grew up with these toys, since most toy sales these days came from adult collectors. kids these days prefers an Ipad with apps. Barbie is Pg13 so I expect these movies to be PG 13.

It's definitely going to bring back some nostalgia for those who spend their childhood and teenage in 90s. It would be interesting to see movies made out of Hot wheels cars. And even more interesting would be to see a horror movie made on Magic 8 ball. I mean there is not characters to develop any story. Let's wait and watch.

I watched He-Man cartoon as a kid. I did not know He-Man was owned by Mattel. It would be great to see the great comic book come to the movie world.

How they can make heist with Uno? I can see only new version of Jumanji or something like big tournament in uno but then it goes in 15+ adults since it can be promoted as gambling.

More Mattel toys announced to have movies.
Image

Christmas Balloons. How the hell are you going to make a movie with Mattel christmas balloons? well there is a true to life story involving the toy that will make a good drama.

Matchbox=This one confuses me because its too similar hot wheels which are also toy cars. :wtf:
Image

Thomas the Tank engine :wtf: :wtf:
Image
Nobody ask for this.....

-----------
Plot of American girl doll movie got revealed. 2 tween boys failed their history class so they were forced to travel back in time and meet these historical girls with traumatic life experience. Meeting these girls will make them appreciate the importance of history. So they will probably meet Josefina during the American Spanish war and see her bury the corpse of her mom. OR they will try to rescue Addy from slavery.

All of this sounds pretty interesting!!
May be one day Bollywood can also try making such a movie, and it would be more exciting than some of the routine stuff that we are seeing today.

I think among the Mattel properties, I think Barbie and He-Man will be their most powerful franchises to become movie materials. I still don't know how the hell they're going to make a movie out of UNO and why its heist.

Action Man is from Hasbro, which is the creator of Transformers, G.I. Joe, My Little Pony, and Gem and the Holograms. So he is Hasbro, he's not Mattel.
