This Book Release Is Basically GTA 6 Launch For Thirsty Women, And Larian Knows It

This Book Release Is Basically GTA 6 Launch For Thirsty Women, And Larian Knows It https://ift.tt/KlTujBE You might have noticed that Baldur's Gate 3 has an extraordinarily large female audience, and for years, I've had my own theory as to why this is. Much like Dragon Age ( rest in peace, my sweet angel ), Baldur's Gate 3 features high stakes, fantasy-filled adventure, swords and sorcery, and charming characters that you can smooch. Essentially, it's a Romantasy--a term given to the plethora of women-oriented novels that feature all of the above. Regardless of if you love or hate the term, Romantasy has exploded in popularity over the past decade, and part of that is thanks to writer Sarah J. Maas and her A Court of Thorns and Roses series. For over five years, that series has been on hold while Maas worked on other novels, but now, the sixth book in the series, A Court of Splintered Harmony, is finally here--or at least it will be later tonight.

Barbie's Ryan Gosling On The "Hypocrisy" Of Ken Haters: "You Never Cared"

Barbie's Ryan Gosling On The "Hypocrisy" Of Ken Haters: "You Never Cared" https://ift.tt/6HZ78sr

When Barbie was introduced in 1959, she was sold by herself, but her greatest accessory wouldn't hit the market until a year later: Ken.

A man without an identity of his own, Ryan Gosling, who plays the main Ken in the upcoming Barbie movie really wants you to care about Ken.

"Ken...his job is beach," Gosling told GQ, explaining who Ken is to him. "For 60 years, his job has been beach. What the f--- does that even mean? And everyone was fine with that, for him to have a job that is nothing. But suddenly, it's like, 'No, we’ve cared about Ken this whole time.' No, you didn’t. You never did. You never cared. Barbie never f---ed with Ken. That's the point. If you ever really cared about Ken, you would know that nobody cared about Ken. So your hypocrisy is exposed. This is why his story must be told."

Director Greta Gerwig has already said that Ken's creation is sort of a reverse Adam and Eve story in the Book of Genesis. Much like Barbie, Ken is malleable but is almost a worshipper of Barbie and everything she is. Gerwig said that she cast Gosling in the role because of a quality he has about never judging the characters. "He doesn't try and make you know that Ryan Gosling knows that this is silly. He does it in a way that takes on all of the potential humiliations of the character as his own."
