To top it all off, you'll just need black jeans, a big western belt, white cowboy hat, and white cowboy boots. To see the mojo dojo casa houses on the big screen, Barbie is playing in cinemas nationwide. One Twitter user even likened the rebranding of Twitter to X to the Barbie Dreamhouse transitioning into the mojo dojo casa house, receiving over 200,000 likes. Clearly, the movie's joke struck a chord with many, creating a powerful meme in the process. In The Nice Guys, Gosling’s rumpled PI laments that “the days of ladies and gentlemen are over,” but Gosling is at his best playing men whose time has passed. Even the 20th century’s most iconic doll can barely match his Kenergy.

In Barbieland women control government, the Supreme Court, and the world essentially revolves around them, while the Kens get table scraps. Ken is so in awe of the patriarchy, he brings it back with him from the real world and soon Barbieland is barely recognizable. Tired of being sidelined in favor of the women in their lives, Barbie’s Kens (led by Ryan Gosling in a ridiculous mink coat) eventually quit their “beaching” and decide to assert their dominance, plastering Barbie Land with all of their tacky accouterments. Oversized electronics, workout equipment, dark colors… you know the vibe.

Instead, Barbie and her allies work to trick the men and de-program the brainwashed Barbies, and in the end they take back Barbieland and their iron grip on society. The Barbie movie has inspired a mountain of memes, from mugshot redraws to the phrase "I am Kenough" to an image of Ken on Barbie's shoulder. The latest Barbie meme to take off on social media is the Mojo Dojo Casa House, a reference to a scene in the movie where Ken rebrands the Barbie Dreamhouse. Get ready to wrangle up some fun this Halloween in this cowboy getup that Barbie and Ken grab from a California convenience store near the Mattel headquarters. Though Ken later proclaims,"When I found out the patriarchy wasn't about horses, I lost interest anyway," that fringe finery is so worth copying. Luckily, we found a costume shirt that looks just like the real one and even comes with a pink bandana.

Britney Spears settles years-long court war with dad but will 'get nothing'

Perhaps the most classic Ken doll costume of all is that of his beachwear! After all, apart from being Barbie's sidekick, he's famously known for his job of just "beach." Though come October 31, your job will just be "candy" or "party." No matter your plans, you'll succeed when you throw on Ken's striped matching short and shirt set. We've found pieces that are nearly identical to Gosling's film attire. And instead of lugging around his big blue surfboard, you could grab a smaller bodyboard or make your own accessory with cardboard and paint. She has written for national publications as well as daily and alt-weekly newspapers in Spokane, Washington, Syracuse, New York and Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated with her master’s degree in arts journalism and communications from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University.

Since joining the CB team she has covered numerous TV shows and movies -- including her personal favorite shows Ted Lasso and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. She also has followed and consistently written about everything from Taylor Swift to Fire Country, and she's enjoyed every second of it. In September, Boohoo predicted the most popular pop culture-themed costumes for Halloween 2023.

Ryan Gosling and Greta Gerwig on how Ken became the subversive center of ‘Barbie’

Where the Barbies are individuated by their professions—Lawyer Barbie, Diplomat Barbie—the Kens are simply Ken. The memes often include a pop culture reference or an image of an unappealing property seen in another movie or TV show. The Mojo Dojo is Ken's bachelor pad with hyper-masculine themes made to be the less tasteful "anti-dream house."

Instead, the movie leaned heavily on ham-fisted exposition about how hard it is to be a woman, and dragged out every stereotype in the book to relentlessly drive home the point. I enjoyed it (my review) but I still maintain that it spent far too much time preaching to the choir rather than trying to change anyone’s mind for the better. So it’s no surprise that when Barbie (Margot Robbie) and Ken go to the real world and he starts to notice that men are treated much, much differently there, he starts to have an awakening. The phrase stems from Ryan Gosling’s Ken, who after entering the real world, learns lessons about patriarchy and horses, and decides he needs to bring some of that to Barbieland and transforms Barbie’s Dreamhouse. BARBIE'S dreamhouse is considered prime real estate in Greta Gerwig's film of the same name. And given the number of people who’ve ventured through Barbieland on the big screen, it should come as no surprise that memes inspired by the movie are already making the rounds.

This isn’t even the first time Gosling has starred opposite a doll. In 2007’s Lars and the Real Girl, he’s a pathologically withdrawn man who can’t stand the touch of a human hand. So instead of finding a nice girl, he buys one, a life-sized sex doll he names Bianca. Although she, unlike Barbie (or Ken, for that matter), is anatomically correct, Lars’ intentions are entirely courtly. And we can't forget the fabulous outfits seen throughout the film (that can now also be seen on collectible Barbie movie dolls) like cowgirl chic getup and groovy disco wear.

I’m not saying who, but a lot of them did,” set decorator Katie Spencer shared with The New York Times. The Mojo Dojo Casa House is complete with ridiculous details, like Doritos in the juivcers, the TVs playing the same horse clip, and more.

Ken stays behind in Barbie Land and Barbie decides to live her life in the real world. Despite his love becoming unrequited, Barbie helps Ken realize he's not "just Ken," and that he possesses other great qualities. However, the habitant seems to be unaware when hosting other people. The doll which you may recognize from the movie played by Ryan Gosling features an entirely new look with several accessories. Get ready to move over Barbie because Mattel is releasing yet another toy doll from the hit film Barbie.

HGTV hired Jack McBrayer, the actor and comedian best known for his Emmy-nominated role in 30 Rock.

Partway through their adventure, the iconic pair split up – Barbie goes to look for the girl playing with her doll while Ken… does Ken things. The doll, comes dressed in a white faux fur coat with a black fringed vest underneath, joggers, and white sneakers. More than 4 million followers can attest to the overwhelming popularity of Zillow Gone Wild, a social media phenomenon that harnesses the addictive pleasure of scrolling through outrageous real estate listings. I wish the movie had taken this allegory a bit further and really had the Barbies reckon with their matriarchy. As a parallel to our patriarchy, it could have been super effective.

After ‘Barbie’ breaks a Monday ticket record, industry analysts predict how well that film and ‘Oppenheimer’ will perform this weekend. ” Gosling suddenly shouts with the conviction of Mel Gibson in “Braveheart” or Russell Crowe in “Gladiator.” The two sides charge toward each other screaming, with their weapons held high. The Kens twist each other’s nipples, sword fight with lacrosse sticks and fire off suction-cup arrows — one of which Gosling pulls off his pec in wounded disbelief. The whole scene is vibrant, goofy pandemonium — these are toys fighting each other with toys! — but the actors all play it straight, as if these Kens are ready to end lives and lose their own. Ferrera, who co-stars in ‘Barbie’ as Gloria, a lifelong admirer of the doll, delivers a rousing speech about womanhood in the film.

He helps his fellow Kens up from the floor and giggles after they kiss him on the cheek in gratitude. He is no longer threatened by other men, or the expression of affection among them. Phillip Hamilton is an editor at Know Your Meme and Director of Writing at Meme Insider Magazine.
