    Ugh… I can’t wait for this Fifty Shades of Shit thing to be over. It’s not even true BDSM!

    • littlestar says:

      If the people who enjoyed reading the 50 Shades of Shit books actually watched or read a real BDSM movie/book, they’d literally shit themselves. Literally. Butt plugs would be the least of their problems.

      • Other Kitty says:

        I don’t know how anyone could even stand to read that garbage. I read the first chapter free on my Kindle and OH NO. So instead of reading the books, I read all the bad reviews on Amazon. It was AWESOME.

      • Carlye says:

        +1 And thanks for the laugh!

        “So instead of reading the books, I read all the bad reviews on Amazon. ”

        That is hysterical and brilliant at the same time! Great strategy!

    • Just last week, probably because it has been coming up on this site a lot, I decided to put my money where my mouth is (I have been dissing the book without having read more than a few passages) and actually read the thing. I couldn’t get through it. I read the first few chapters, skimmed to some sex scenes, and got bored and offended by the poor writing and underdeveloped characters. Total crap. I can’t believe they’re going to make a movie out of this. The scene where he is flying his helicopter over Seattle to his Big Building In The Sky had me in stitches. I lived in Seattle for about 12 years, and Seattle is a very progressive and down to earth city that would probably throw rocks at a guy who carried on like that. (Bellevue, right across Lake Washington, on the other hand…). I can’t stress this enough. Total garbage. It’s not even worth reading for the sex. Just rent something with Fassbender in it and call it a day.

      If you want to read a much more well-written account of a BDSM relationship, read Story of O.

      • Alyce says:

        The story of O is way more disturbing than hot IMO. I’m not a fan of 50 shades either, mind you. Just want to warn people bc that book is scarring.

      • pru says:

        I bought this book because I heard it was banned in some libraries for the BDSM and wanted to see for myself what the fuss has about. It been 3 years and I can’t bring myself to finish it. It should have been banned for the poor writing, it’s just that bad.

      • Ange says:

        Or ‘The Boss’ series by Abigail Barnette. Seriously hot.

      • DrM says:

        Ditto. A friend of mine loaned me the book. Rubbish. I managed 10 pages and couldn’t go on. I’d rather cut nails than read that stuff. Not hot, not a turn on and dollars to donuts the movie will be a pile of steaming guano…just like the book

    • delorb says:

      Is it wrong that I want this movie to fail? LOL

  3. Isadora says:

    It looks like a car commercial. “Safe, eco-friendly, enough space for the whole family.”

    • M.A.F. says:

      Yep. Feels as if there should be kids in the back seat laughing while the wife is in the front seat staring out the window looking at the scenery as they drive to Vermont.

      • lisa2 says:

        Maybe that image is more provocative. It looks wholesome; but there is that underlying darkness and hidden sexuality.

        I mean we see pictures of the perfect home and image and behind it is dark and dirty

        maybe that is what they are feeding the public at first glance. If that is the direction they are going it could work..

    • Mandy says:

      I honestly thought it was an ad, too. lol

    • Isadora….L.O. freakin’ L!

  4. T.C. says:

    Just like the film will be uneventful.

  5. chaine says:

    Madonna: so NOT bringing sexy back.

    • Rosie says:

      She’s a gargoyle. She has no self-awareness at all – it’s beyond embarrassing. The photos are so heavily distorted to hide her real looks. If I were a man there is no way I wound boink her – she is entirely classless. Wow – I’m really anti-M today.

  6. Tiffany says:

    I think I might be in the minority, but this train wreck will get my money on opening weekend. I cannot…look…away.

  7. Clair says:

    He’s kinda look like Dexter right?

  8. PunkyMomma says:

    I’m sorry, but Christian Grey wouldn’t be caught dead in that ill-fitting suit. No, just no. And no, I will not be donating to this cause.

    • JenniferJustice says:

      Ditto! Gray is bigger, ominous, and I’m not seeing the “steely eyes” either – just plain brown.

      So many comments about how stupid or unrealistic the Gray books are, but they’re suppose to be fiction – like Harloquin Romances on steroids. I read them. They were okay. I like the copycat books better – Bound to You or something like that. More realistic and better characters.

      I’m married and our sex life is perfectly fine. Yes, the books are definitely porn for the suburbs, but I prefer a well-written hot sex scene over a budget porn film anyday.

      • Well-written being the key here, I think. I think it’s an insult to the suburbs to call this stuff “suburban mommy porn”. It’s a little hot, but meh. Even in fiction, you have to spin a character out of enough layers to let us not have to think so hard about suspending our disbelief.

    • T.C. says:

      You know Christian Grey is Modelled off Robert Pattinson right? Steely sexy I don’t see.

  9. Amulla says:

    I don’t understand what women like about this book series. Even for fiction, its totally unrealistic.

    • NorthernGirl_20 says:

      I read the books .. because it was like a train-wreck where you just can’t stop looking. I personally thought they were terrible, the sex-scenes bored me .. I ended up skipping through most of them – so most of the books lol. Just wanted to see how they were goign to end .. and they ended terribly. I really didn’t see the appeal, or the attraction to Grey, he was creepy and abusive.

  10. Ivy says:

    I “love” how Johnny Depp’s playing nice with the french press, suddenly talking about Vanessa, trying to sell his latest flop “Transcendence”.
    I can’t believe how cool he was for soooo long.
    I know you need the money, but subtelty isn’t your forte Johnny…

  11. pnichols says:

    That stupid book is the cliff notes for married morons who want to learn how to tie knots. Yawn. It’s not even true BDSM. Amateur hour. But they’ll all be at the movie and practice when they get home.

    • Abbott says:

      Someone needs to do a study opening weekend on 9-1-1 calls from people who accidentally get stuck tied to their beds.

      • Belle Epoch says:

        ABBOTT great idea! Emergency room visits regarding butt plugs, whipping injuries, etc.

      • pnichols says:

        LOL!!!! guess I should invest in rope and handcuff stock that week.

      • kri says:

        All I’m going to say is that at work, some genius once was brought into the ER with a can of Aqua Net in the rectum. Aqua Net. No one asked “WHY”?? But the person volunteered the info. “It was like including an old friend and a symbol of glamor for us”. I am not kidding,and this is a true story. I was NOT on this case personally, proving to me that there is indeed a god, and she had some mercy on me that day.

      • Aqua Net takes the cake. They don’t sell the stuff over here, but we have seen our fair share of travel-sized Moulton Brown bottles all up in peoples business….

      • Tiffany :) says:

        Wow, Aqua Net? Just wow. Was it travel size? My aunt was a nurse for a colorectal doctor and she saw a lot up there (potatoes, sausages, etc.). She said that EVERYONE would say, “Whaaaa? That’s what we had for dinner last night? How did THAT get up there?”

        Aqua Net takes the cake over food items, though. Yikes!

  12. mel says:

    I’ve never read the book. And honestly, I’ll probably never watch the movie.

    But if I was stuck in traffic, looked over and that guy was in the next car over: I’d have a desire to bang him. Not gonna lie. He’s kind of hot.

  13. Tig says:

    It’s the Jamie D stare! For those of you who haven’t watched The Fall- do it right now! That’s what convinced me there is a chance of a watchable movie- he can be mesmerizing!

  14. Locke says:

    Since you covered some things from the World Cup, I’m surprised you didn’t cover the naked pictures of football players that were published recently.

  15. eliza says:

    Proud to say never read the 50 Shades b.s and will most certainly NOT be seeing the movie.

  16. Liz says:

    The photo of Dornan is so sexy. He has that irresistible combination of being sexy, sensual and gorgeous. He is the same way in his interviews. He can’t be anymore perfect.

  17. Abby_J says:

    Never read the books, won’t see the movies (I hated Twilight so there is NO way that I am reading Twilight fan fiction!), but I still think that Jamie Dornan is a beautiful man. The Fall was amazingly creepy!

  18. Becky1 says:

    Not a fan of her bikini but I love how normal Kate Walsh looks-it’s really nice to see an actress in her 40’s who appears to be aging naturally. She’s fit and attractive but doesn’t look as though she’s had work done or spends hours and hours at the gym. I think she looks great!

    • Jess says:

      Completely agree and I thought the same when I saw the pics, good for her! She looks amazing.

  19. Ellen says:

    What page numbers in the book does he go jogging past her house? Everyone talks about that part but I can’t find it

  20. Green Is Good says:

    I tried to read this crapfest and I consider it an insult to my backside that I sat on it for an hour while slogging through this Twilight fanfic garbage.
