Martin Scorsese Is a Fan of the Barbenheimer Phenomenon and Says It “Offers Hope for Cinema”

In case you’re wondering what director Martin Scorsese thought about the whole Barbenheimer phenomenon that had audiences flocking to theaters to watch Barbie and Oppenheimer, it turns out that he was a fan of it! He said the whole thing was “something special” and “offers hope for cinema.” During an interview with The Hindustan Times, the filmmaker said:

“I do think that the combination of Oppenheimer and Barbie was something special. It seemed to be, I hate that word, but the perfect storm. It came about at the right time. And the most important thing is that people went to watch these in a theater. And I think that’s wonderful.

“The way it fit perfectly – a film with such entertainment value, purely with the bright colors – and a film with such severity and strength, and pretty much about the danger of the end to our civilization – you couldn’t have more opposite films to work together. It does offer some hope for a different cinema to emerge, different from what’s been happening in the last 20 years, aside from the great work being done in independent cinema.”

I remember back in the day when lots of exciting and great films of different genres were released on the same weekend in theaters all the time! This one just had a fun catchy name that stuck and people just ran with it. Both of the movies ended up having an incredibly successful box office run with Greta Gerwig‘s Barbie making $1.47 billion worldwide. Christopher Nolan‘s Oppenheimer ended up with a $939 million global haul.

I don’t know if we’ll ever see another Barbenheimer as this is the kind of thing that comes naturally and can’t be forced. It was lightning in a bottle. But, it does show that multiple big movies can be released at the same time and be successful at the box office! More of that, please.
