A friend who works in a theatre just informed me that someone left a whip behind at one screening (though this reeks more of "ironic" viewing than anything).

my sister works at a movie theater, and last night she told me they found a condom on the floor during cleanup. i was like "ew, those 50 shades fans are sick" and she said "no, it was in the theater for the Spongebob movie."

Universal’s second highest opening weekend of all time, just behind “Fast & Furious 6″ ($160.3 million).

excited about the revival of the EROTIC THRILLER genre

This lacks thrills though right?

I'm sure people find it thrilling in exactly the same way Wild Orchid was thrilling

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 17 February 2015 17:39 (nine years ago) link

I remember my parents going to see Wild Orchid. A year or so later, when it hit cable, I snuck downstairs late at night to watch some of it and was pretty much like "so, this is what adults find hot?!"

Thanks to winning a VCR circa 84/85 at a fundraiser raffle, my father treated the entire family to some uncomfortable family movie nights with movies like Body Heat and 9 1/2 Weeks. My takeaway was that my dad is super shameless and a total hero.

So, basically, this movie is book one, and there will doubtless be three eventually.

Ok, I have now read more of this thread.

Basically, Stevie D's review is otm.

50 Shades of Armond: http://www.nationalreview.com/article/413741/50-shades-dull-armond-white

Enterprises such as 50 Shades of Grey and Gone Girl, designed to exploit modern moral confusion, also mean to rationalize political disorientation. Anastasia and Grey’s sadomasochistic love/hate symbolizes contemporary bewilderment regarding capitalist politics. Rich, empowered men like Grey are shown to lead and seduce us, while a new consumerist myth (replacing rugged individualism) suggests that our naïve affection — the opposite of buyer’s remorse — can redeem them, just as Bill Clinton has been redeemed and sanctioned by the mainstream media.

have I posted yet with the idea that knowing who her parents are, this is probably like the fifteenth most screwy enterprise Dakota Johnson has been a part of. we just don't know.

Her mother lived with a pet lion in their house, who the hell knows.

sam taylor-johnson is out:

I forged close and lasting relationships with the cast, producers and crew and most especially, with Dakota and Jamie. While I will not be returning to direct the sequels, I wish nothing but success to whosoever takes on the exciting challenges of films two and three.

this might be my favorite ile thread title. always makes me chuckle

da croupier, Thursday, 4 June 2015 02:08 (eight years ago) link

yet ANOTHER way 50 shades is ripping off twilight, stephenie meyer notoriously rewrote twilight from edward's perspective and then canned it after a rough draft leaked to the internet. legend had it that robert pattinson traded his copy for drugs, but that's probably apocryphal.

lmao she actually wrote the three Fifty Shades books again, from Christian's perspective? Jesus GOD, that's like the "Megahertz" episode of Weird Science (tv version).

also managed to get an actual non-50 shades book published: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mister
