Beware, Bill Maher! There’s an army of people who are not taking any nonsense about the comedic masterpiece ‘Barbie.‘ Comedian and talk show host got on X to give the billion-dollar film a harsh review, calling it “man-hating” and creating a sense of faux feminism. But Mark Ronson wasn’t having it.

Mark Ronson Trolls Bill Maher’s Radical Review Of Barbie
Earlier this week, Bill Maher took to X to share his review of ‘Barbie.’ Nobody expected him to be lenient, but the film bothered him to the extent he called it “preachy” and “man-hating”. He also made harsh remarks about the film’s idea of feminism, which he thought was outdated.

Marc Maron Sounds Off On ‘Barbie’ Hating “Insecure Babies”
Comedian and podcaster Marc Maron also showed love and support for ‘Barbie.’ Before heading off into the interview section of his podcast, he bit into men who have failed to understand the irony behind the film. He calls these people “insecure babies” and laughs at them for having no sense of humor about the film.
Marc Maron said, “The fact that certain men took offense, is so embarrassing for them. I mean, so embarrassing for them, Any dude who can’t take those hits in that movie, they’ve really gotta look in their pants and decide what they’re made of. I mean, Jesus Christ, what a bunch of f***ing insecure babies.”
