Judd Apatow Thinks It’s ‘Insulting’ That ‘Barbie’ Is Being Considered For The Adapted, Not Original, Screenplay Oscar

The Golden Globes may be tonight, but the Oscars are still over two months off. Heck, the nominations haven’t even been announced yet. When they do, they may include a screenplay nod for Barbie, currently the 14th highest grossing motion picture (not adjusted for inflation, of course). But there’s a catch: Greta Gerwig’s blindingly pink comedy is reportedly being considered for the Adapted branch, not the Original one, despite it being an original story, based only on a toy brand. That decision has caused some uproar, including from fellow comedy maker Judd Apatow.
