so the 50 shades of grey trailer is out...

_BlueGreyGreen_

Why can't everyone just watch hardcore porn like normal folk? So much more to the point with less vaginal wording.

LOL..Exactly!

I bet all these haters listen to Nickelback.

The books were terrible and lame. Can't imagine the movie will be any good.

Thank you!

I'm hating the players not the game though...

Interesting observation from when I worked at a bookstore and these books came out. The majority of purchases of these books were accompanied with Christian Inspiration books. I just thought that was interesting...

Judging by the female posts here, I have a renewed hope in the fairer sex regarding film and literature.

The books never appealed to me at all....and seeing the trailer just made it way less appealing.

Ugh, I read the book because people wouldn't stop talking about it, and I hate criticizing stuff I know nothing about. It's awful. It's BDSM-lite for people that don't know anything about BDSM. The main characters did not have a healthy dom/sub relationship. The blandness of Anastasia's character, along with the quality of the writing, make the book's origin as a Twilight fanfic all too obvious.

For the record, I bear no ill will to people who enjoy the books - I have several friends who graciously endure my eye-rolling when they bring up the subject - I just hope that none of them drag me out to see this movie!

Wait one hot minute! Nickelback isn't cool? Guess I'll have to get rid of all my douchey Ed Hardy shirts.

I read the book because all of my friends had read it and they were really positive towards it. My god. It was the worst book I have ever read! The main person was dull and boring and the plot.. what was it again? I am not going to watch the movie. In my experience the movies are worse than the books, and I will not do that to myself:p

I didn't read the books because I prefer my porn to be live action in my boyfriend's king sized bed...but that being said, the dude looks like a puppy dog. He doesn't look at all like the character he's trying to portray.

You obviously haven't been introduced to German porn.

I have, and I have zero interest in stomping on my bf's testicles with stilettos because I refuse to wear heels higher than 2 inches.

Also, I prefer to keep waste products in the toilet where they belong.

But to each his own...

Oh yeah, I have a better movie for you if you like the premise but hate the books. The Secretary. Way before these books ever came out there was a crazy sub/dom movie featuring James Spader and Maggie Gyllenhaal. You are welcome.

Laurenloveswaffles

I just hope who they picked lives up to the role and does justice. He does not look like a dominating man to me.

Agreed. He looks like a loser

This a thousand times. The Secretary was great. It belongs in your DVD collection.

omg seen the trailor today. im sooo ready to go see it. gonna b such a hott movie

veganbettie

the books are twilight for middle age house wives. They did the job. Got all of the wifeys hot and bothered.

I read them all. they weren't great, but just consider the source, it's not like it was meant to be these amazing works of art. Didn't hate them, didn't love them.

I think they did a decent job of casting Ana, but I wish they kept Charlie Hunnam as Christian....oh my word. That would have made a good movie despite the poor books.

I know nothing about BDSM so I didn't see anything wrong about it, sucks to hear it was poorly represented.

I am probably one of the few women that really couldn't give a frak about it... It sounds lame and looks lame...

I am more excited over the new tornado disaster movie than I am 50 shades of blah.

I LOVE this movie. Thank you for posting this gif lol.

That's because we are all repressed feminine beings...

Spoiler alert:



This scene made the movie worth watching.

Never read the books. The movie doesn't look that great either, but I like the new version of Crazy In Love.

Same here, everyone at work was raving mad about it. I ended up borrowing it from my boss (of all people) and when I asked what the plot was I just got blank stares. Didn't even bother with books 2 and 3, the first one was so bad...

sjeannot

I think I need to read the book first before I watch it because adaptations into film usually change things up a bit, with the book being better most of the time. But sound like it will be a great movie from what I've heard people say about the book.

<writes this down>

you know what semi scandalous movie I kind of enjoyed?
Dangerous Beauty- not really BDSM- but it was certainly an interesting slightly "racey" if I watched this with my mom I'd be uncomfortable movie for it's time. Inspired by a true story I believed.

Let me know when they make the Sleeping Beauty series from Anne Rice into a movie.
