Barbie's Dream House vs Oppenheimer's explosives - memes incoming

The big Barbie vs Oppenheimer weekend is finally here, heralded by memes and a marketing blitz of epic, or e-pink if you will, proportions by Mattel. Barbie tie-ups crowded the real world and memes inundated the virtual one. One such meme took on a life of its own – a real-life Barbie's Dream House was listed on Airbnb and it occurred to folks that Oppenheimer PR had the opportunity of a lifetime. For those not up to date, Oppenheimer documents the making of the first atomic bomb. Not only is the film the yin to Barbie's yang, thematically, it lends itself to a macabre sort of humour that snowballed on Twitter.

It all began with this meme – a response to the Airbnb Dream house listing that read: "The Barbie Dream House has mysteriously appeared in Malibu. The Oppenheimer marketing team has the opportunity to do the funniest thing possible." The implication was, of course, that bombing the Dream House would be on-brand for Oppenheimer.

"The Oppenheimer marketing team has the opportunity to do the funniest thing possible" became a meme-within-a-meme with variants popping up online with increasing frequency. To the Internet, the idea of Oppenheimer PR literally blitzing the Barbie onslaught product by product was the bomb, pardon the pun.
