” What Footage Will Fans See in IMAX? While it’s not clear exactly what footage fans attending the special IMAX screenings of Barbie will see, Gerwig has previously spoken about how she’d wanted to include a fart joke in the film, but ultimately wasn’t able to as it would have gotten in the way of some of the film’s more emotional moments. “We’ve always tried to get in a proper fart joke and we’ve never done it,” Gerwig revealed. “We had like a fart opera in the middle [of Barbie ].

I thought it was really funny,” Gerwig recalled. “And that was not the consensus. ” “It was in the wrong place, too,” Houy said of the moment Gerwig wanted to place the flatulence-centric joke in the new movie.

“We need to work it into a more significant narrative moment next time. ” Barbie Just Hit a Major Box Office Milestone Barbie just hit another box office milestone this week.
