M/M Tickling Desire Expressed in Movie That's Gonna Gross Over $1B Dollars Worldwide

[kucheeku]

For those of you who haven't seen "Barbie", there's a short tickle fight scene in the final quarter of the film with Will Ferrell as the ticklee. The tickling is only brief, but what's more interesting is the dialogue with it. He states (paraphrasing) "You don't know how I wish I could call a meeting with the guys just to have a tickle fight."

That line has the very real acknowledgement of M/M physical desire for tickling play without homophobic shame. It's very interesting how that has now entered into the zeitgeist via a movie that's going to be international blockbuster grossing over a billion dollars.

Will Farrell had a couple m/m tickling scenes in “Elf” too. Where there’s smoke….

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

I don't wanna deflate your balloon here, but it was played up as though it was a strange thing for that man to say and want to do.

Wow, what a complete waste, especially with Margot Robbie right there. The scene where she takes her shoe off, showing her feet , would have been perfect for a tickle moment.

I haven't even seen the movie and thats exactly what it sounds like. But hey it WAS something M/m for a change so thats pretty cool!

Will Farrell can do some serious roles, but he's for the most part solidified his position as the twit humor guy. Which don't get me wrong, I lie him, but tickling was just the next funny word in the alphabet to say.

The operative phrase here is "that man". Remember that he's playing the insensitive CEO of Mattel, so it's doubtful any of his self-serving desires is going to fall on particularly empathetic ears.

You're overthinking it. It's a silly scene in a silly movie and it's just for laughs.
