Memes and Tweets About 'Oppenheimer' and 'Barbie' That Celebrate the Double Feature of a Generation

We've got three weeks to go until the event of the summer: the day when Barbie and Oppenheimer hit movie theaters at the same time. Greta Gerwig's live action doll adventure and Christopher Nolan's gritty biopic have almost zero things in common.

However, this hasn't stopped the two from going head to head in the box office, and inspiring one of the most successful free PR campaigns in modern memory. Ever since it was announced that these heavy hitters shared a release date, the internet's imagination has run wild with combining a pair of distinctly different vibes. The atomic bomb has no place in the Barbie Dreamhouse, but they're planting it there anyway.

One of the most popular ideas to emerge from this wacky trend is a plan to watch the two movies back to back when they first come out in July. To be honest, I'm not sure most people have the tenacity to deal with that emotional rollercoaster, but they might as well go ahead and try. In the meantime, here are some of the silliest memes and tweets that hype the joint runup to these two movies. Undoubtedly, they'll both be smash hits.
