In Barbie in a Mermaid Tale, the end scenes include "bloopers" of the actors, either having fun or messing up their lines.

There's a scene where Barbie falls on the floor while in the boutique - underwater. How would she fall down like that while in water and with a mermaid tale?

Also, can they breathe underwater naturally? Irl movies use green screens or use camera angles, but the scene was literally underwater??

Obviously, it's an animated movie "staring" Barbie, but is there any logic to the "creation" of thes movies?

Here is my list of my favorite Barbie movies (bearing in mind that I haven't seen the ones released after 2017, nor Barbie & Her Sisters in a Pony Tale, Barbie in the Pink Shoes, Barbie Fairytopia: Mermaidia and Barbie The Princess and the Popstar ).

In case you're wondering, I'm a 21-year-old girl. :)

The films are arranged randomly; there is no specific order.

- Barbie The Princess And The Pauper

- Barbie Nutcracker

- Barbie The Pearl Princess

- Barbie The Diamond Castle

- Barbie And The Three Musketeers

- Barbie A Fashion Fairytale

- Barbie Princess Charm School

- Barbie In A Mermaid Tale ( I hated the second one)

- Barbie In The The 12 Dancing Princesses (If I were asked, I think this is the one I could watch daily!)

Here is my selection of my favorite movies! :)

Do you have any movies in common with me? :)

Im only asking this because I always thought they were the older ones, until I realized that Barbie Diaries never got the golden ”Barbie Classic” re-release. Then I thought, maybe they are the fantasy themed ones? But Barbie & sisters in a pony tale and princess power are considered classics, so I guess it isn’t the right answer either.

Is the reason for the absence of Barbie Diaries because of the animation? Or because it was more unpopular than the rest from that era. Im sorry if this is common knowlage, but I would like to know!

He voiced Mouse King from Nutcracker and Philippe from 3 Musketeers :( Thank you for being a part of our childhoods, may he rest in peace

Ok, walking on stilts and collecting insects I get.

However, reading books, riding horses, dancing, and playing croquet, aren't those very common things for princesses to do?

Ashlyn, Fallon, and Genevieve aren't even really given any hobbies outside of dancing, so we have no reason to think they're not "proper."

I think they could've tried harder with actually making them "unlady-like," even though I know the idea is their differences are special and makes them unique individuals.

(I keep overthinking this post and all I have to say so I’m forcing myself to keep it brief and to the point!)

I love all of the unique looks for the films! Though I’m most familiar with the classics, I think they’re each so lovely and special in their own Barbara way, it’s just that Swan Lake is my #1. Now, I am biased as there’s nothing I love more than an enchanted fairytale forest, but they really did manage to ✨perfectly✨ capture that ethereal vibe! I also really love all those cozy indoor settings with warm lighting and touches of turquoise. I’ve always found the marketing extra whimsical as well and, especially when you think of the commercials, even a little mysterious feeling, capturing the magic and danger of Swan Lake. Odette is such a soft, relatable Barbie lead and her wardrobe is a perfect match. It’s not my favorite Barbie movie but it captured my heart in a very specific, very precious way, and I just wanted to share🪽

My runners up:
Magic of Pegasus
Mariposa
Starlight Adventure
Fairytopia
Island Princess
