We're not really going to say any more about the situation, but I'll re-quote this part of our statement that is especially relevant to your point:

Wait, are you saying Moore's portrayal isn't totally accurate? :) There was a point very early in production where we actually imagined the film would also be more of an dive into the fetish a bit - we thought we'd need it to "pad out" the story. But as we got further in we soon realised that...

Sorry for late reply - I don't check in here that often. We would have shown that if it what was relevant to the subject and company we ended up investigating. Ultimately the tickling is somewhat secondary in the film once we get into it. It does, of course, remain a constant presence, but...

Hey - thanks for the heads up, I'll try to listen to the podcast a bit later. As for people having their eyes opened - we've had a handful of people approach us after screenings and tell us they've found themselves feeling aroused during the few tickling scenes... Essentially that we'd...

Richard from My Friend's Feet... He's not just really cool - he's great! We love Richard!

Basically 'Competitive Endurance Tickling' is sold to participants as some sort of sport for a reality TV show or something. It's very prominently advertised as NOT fetish material. Guys sign up, get paid good money (US$1,500 + $500 expense money) and get flown to LA for a weekend of tickling...

Legal threats are very free flowing from this person. Even if the threats are without merit they can be very costly to deal with - you need a lawyer to look at them and possibly write responses and research case law. With a website especially this person has been known to attempt to cause...

We definitely get to that... There's a lot that we can't know for sure, but we get a pretty good insight into how the financials might play out. Ahh, Debbie. It's actually more like 20 years from what I can figure. Not sure it ever stopped after She Who Shall Not Be Named as I believe you say...

It's not available online yet. That link is almost certainly a scam.

Thanks Alex - that's actually well put! It could presumably have been a story to come out of more or less any quirky internet thing if the interests of those involved had been different. Tickling is the way in, and remains a theme, but it's not the focus really.

Everything is real. There's very little reenactment in the whole film and virtually none in the trailer.

The doc doesn't attack any general aspect of tickling, just the actions of a specific company and the people behind that company. Overall I think the doco is pretty sympathetic to the fetish. Hopefully that's the impression others get too.

This general reaction is still my favourite. It's absolutely real :)

We have not spoken to any women who were involved. By far the majority of videos were male-only. Although certainly there is some historic stuff with women, it seems to have been a while since that was common.

I don't have a solid answer I'm afraid. It'll probably be on HBO before it's on any other platforms though I'm guessing.
