Why Him?: Adam Devine hooks up with Griffin Gluck over discussions of jizz. With bonus Gluck dick

 



When I saw that Adam Devine was in the 2016 father-of-the-bride comedy Why Him (2016), I forked over the $3.95 for a rental, even though he is far down the cast list on IMDB.  



You really can't go wrong with an Adam Devine movie.   His hotness makes watching him in anything worthwhile, and he appears to have made his career from talking about  penises and jizz, usually in a homoerotic context. (But what reference to penises and jizz is not homoerotic?).  



The premise: conservative button-down printer Ned Fleming (Bryan Cranston) visits his daughter's fiance, the effervescent, unconventional tech millionaire Laird (James Franco, left), for Christmas.  The two start out hating each other, but learn to love and respect, yada yada yada.

Ned's entrepreneur son  Scotty (Griffin Gluck, right) tells him about Tyson Modell (Adam Devine), "the kid who founded Ghostchat.  He turned down billions of dollars, and he's only 24 years old."  They're going to meet up at Laird's Christmas party

Scene 1: What is bukkake? 

At the party, we see Tyson and Scotty -- neither with lady friends -- talking shop: "Totally tanked porting the thin-client apps for the JDK build.  It took me two weeks on the JDEE database..."  Scotty is more into the entrepreneurial side of things, but Tyson advises him to start coding.  The parents and a brother-sister  team join them (the brother is played by Boys in the Band star Andrew Rannells)


Ned is so confused by the tech talk that he exclaims:  "There's bukkake floating all around me."  He thinks bukkake means "overwhelmed," which technically it does: Tyson explains that it means "jizz all over your face."  This is particularly common after gang-bangs, or during,  when one of the guys finishes early.  Apparently Tyson only goes to male-only gang-bangs. .

Laird, who gave Ned the wrong definition, claims that 'I was trying to protect you, Dude.  It's a really sensitive conversation.  They're talking about guys jerking off on each other." None of Tyson's friends likes oral?


To illustrate what bukkake look like, Tyson shows everyone a video on his phone (we don't see it).  Scotty demonstrates considerable interest, but the others are disgusted.

"Is that you?" Laird asks.  

"No." But he nods  "yes" at Ned.



More sex after the break




Scene 2: Just kiss him

The party gets more raucous.  People start dancing.  Tyson and Scotty do shots.  

Wait -- how old is Scotty? Griffin Gluck was like 17 in 2016; he was starring in Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life. I guess his character is 21? 

Interspliced with other characters' actions, we see Tyson wiping Scotty's mouth  (how romantic!) and doing the forehead-press substitute for kissing that we saw with Kelvin and Keefe.  The guys fall sobbing into each other's arms.  Later Tyson is holding Scotty upside down, face to crotch. Usually you lie down for 69, guys.


There is no dialogue, but the boys are obviously in love! Or at least hot for each other.

Unfortunately, Tyson does not appear again; I guess it was just a one night stand.  But I'm pretty sure that it is canonical, not subtext: neither of the guys mentions or looks at a girl, and both express a strong interest in jizz.  

We can imagine that bukkake was on the agenda when they got back to Tyson's place.  Unless Scotty swallows. 


Bonus: Griffin Gluck tied to a bed in Cruel Summer.  No, that's a watermark.













This popped out when I searched for "Griffin Gluck" and "nude."  It turns out to be Vincenz Kiefer in the German movie Gluck (Luck)

    1. I still suspect that it's canonical, or maybe not. Maybe just two dudebros hugging and saying "I love you, man."

    1. The goofiness is his stage presence, of course, but Adam really plays down his hotness. Even when he's a romantic lead, there are very few romantic scenes. Kelvin and Keefe don't kiss for nearly 3 seasons, not because they're a gay couple, but because Adam rarely kisses anyone on screen.
