50 Shades

[girlonfire]

Are u planning on watching 50 Shades?  If so are you going to the theater (and with who) or waiting till it's available on DVD?  If you won't watch it then why not?

i can't wait to see it but I doubt I'll go to the theater.  Something about watching soft porn with strangers just doesn't appeal to me.

[sugarkissed]

I really don't know... I haven't read the books nor had any interest, but I might see the movie once it's on DVD just to see what the hype is about.

[carli]

I won't be seeing it. I'm not comfortable with that type of content in either books or movies. I'm a bit prudish.

[gallumbits]

I won't go out of my way but would probably watch it If it's on tv in the future.
I couldn't get through one chapter of the book due to bad writing. So I'm not excited about giving them money.
eta: autocorrect. Which is funny when I'm critiquing someone else's grammar.

I have no interest in the movie or the books.

I will be the first one to say it - Im so exctied for the movie to come out! I have plans to see it with a girlfriend of mine. I will be waiting for it to be out for alittle bit so the crowds die down. I can agree that the books aren't written well but the story was enjoyable nontheless

I'll be going to see it in a few weeks with my local moms group as a Moms night out event. The 1st book was pretty raunchy (I enjoyed though) but the 2nd and 3rd books tied it together and took it down a few notches..ended up being a great story IMO.

Book 2 and 3 are so much better then the first. - 3's my fav

[wowcheezits]

Nope not even remotely interested. I didn't even read the book and TBH I got sick of hearing about the book too. Now radio stations in my area are giving away free tickets to go see it. I don't want to watch BDSM (as what I read it's a bad representation of it too) porn on a big screen with random strangers popping boners and getting hard nips around me. So I'll pass.

I've read the series and didn't like it very much. Not the writing, which wasn't great but I could deal with, but because I found the two main characters SO ANNOYING! I've read my fair share of smut and think there are other series out there that are better if you want sex and a good story.

That said, I will probably watch it once it's on DVD. I want to see how they made the movie with an R rating given the book's content. And maybe the actors will bring more life to the characters than I got from the book, making the story more enjoyable for me? I'm interested to see!

[Unknown]

No, the books were garbage (not sexy garbage, but poorly written fanfiction and there is quality smut out there if you like to read it). Besides why would anybody want to see that when Magic Mike XXL is coming out this summer?

[fiveohfive]

I'm honestly not a fan of the 50 shades series. I tried to read the first book and the writing irritated me, and I got really sick of people at work talking about it and bringing up other non-PG life experiences because of it.

Same here. Poorly written books annoy me so I haven't bothered to read them, and the previews I've seen of the move haven't impressed me. I don't have much free time these days, so something has to impress me to get my attention, lol.

[lilqt3929]

I don't have any interest in seeing the movie and have not read the books. However, I do like to tease DH that I'm bringing him to see the movie for Valentine's Day .

[zoly1103]

I imagine that we will do what we did for Twilight: Breaking Dawn (1 & 2) and that is wait until it comes on HBO or Showtime and get drunk and watch it. Some things you can only appreciate drunk.

[littlefoot]

I probably won't see it. I read the first book and 15 pages of the second one.
I didn't really like the first book. I felt bad for the main character and thought she was really pathetic.
I bought the second book on a road trip and left it in a hotel. I called like an hour after we checked out to see if I could come back and pick it up but they said it wasn't there. I know it was. Lol.

[redfraggle]

I will watch it if it comes to Netflix. I'm not spending money on it, though. I read the book, steamy yes, well-written no.

[ajaan113]

I actually enjoyed the series. I knew the writing was bad and the story lines and characters were "meh." I was expecting it to be bad. Sure I would go and see the movie. I probably won't since free time does not exist for me. I will watch it someday.

[princessvespa1]

Meh. I may watch it if someone gives us a free copy. I have not seen Magic Mike either. I'm not overly interested in either.

[salemkitty]

I probably won't watch it. I haven't been to the movies since LO was born. It's NMS really anyway. I like light hearted funny things or fantasy
