The soft porn/ steamy sex scenes reminds me of Magic Mike and my husband had ZERO interest in watching that with me. He'll probably treat 50 Shades of Grey the same way. I didn't read any of the books, but all the reviews keep talking about its much better than the book and is actually an enjoyable film. Too bad SOA's Jax dropped out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2071858 Mon, 16 Feb 2015 13:27:56 +0000 BSB 2071858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: I thought it was good and something I might buy.

I was surprised he said that. I kept looking over to see if he was asleep. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2071344 Mon, 16 Feb 2015 08:03:54 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2071344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No - I have less than zero interest in seeing that movie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2070263 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 22:50:46 +0000 californiadreams 2070263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was practically begging DH to see it with me for Valentine's day but he refused because he said it would be too boring for him. I might go watch it by myself though I'd prefer to go with a friend. I'm just pretty certain I have no friends who want to see it :(</p> <p>I read the books after I heard it was twilight fan fiction so I was curious and got hooked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069624 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 08:02:37 +0000 Eko 2069624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: I agree with you as well. Man with unresolved personal issues turns to beating women, but will do it in a 'sexual' way so it is ok? Ummm no thanks. </p> <p>I think it's only gotten this much attention so far since it was conceived from twilight fan fiction and people get involved in trendy things for the sake of it being trendy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069618 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 07:37:18 +0000 avivoca 2069618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I did not read the books and have no interest in seeing the movie. My husband said he might watch it when it comes to onDemand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069517 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 00:04:22 +0000 Kimberlybee 2069517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My bestie is so into this series and lent me the books but I just did get the hype. I only read the first book and thought the writing was not that great. She did say the other books get better than the first and has a good ending. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069489 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 23:22:25 +0000 Ra 2069489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll definitely see it when it comes out on demand. I have no shame. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069454 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 22:29:18 +0000 mrsjazz 2069454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout: That is awesome!</p> <p>We don't get out to the movies much. I'd watch the movie if it was on Netflix Instant but I wouldn't pay for it. I actually think it will probably be better than the book because the excerpts I've read from the book had horrendous writing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069359 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:55:21 +0000 DesertDreams88 2069359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny story... my husband is a 8th grade teacher and one of his smart-aleck students asked if he would take me to see the movie for Valentine's Day. My husband looked him dead in the eye and said, "You know that's basically pornography, right? So, no." .... Kid turned bright red and was basically shell-shocked into silence. Very rare for 8th graders! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069348 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:44:29 +0000 Beehive 2069348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely not our cup of tea, but this is amazing:</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnGX4FuIK60" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnGX4FuIK60</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069336 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:27:13 +0000 78h2o 2069336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Side note: Has anyone heard the ads for the "50 Shades of Grey teddy bear" from the Vermont Teddy Bear company that comes "complete with accessories"?

I think I'd feel awkward in a theater. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069322 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:15:47 +0000 MrsBananaGrabber 2069322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dc yoga bee: I agree, there is plenty of well-written erotica. Story of O is much better written than the 50 Shades book, and along the same general lines. I just meant that in all the fuss I heard about the book before reading it, praise of the writing style didn't come up, and if I had expected decent writing for whatever reason the first few pages would have quickly changed that :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069314 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:12:09 +0000 dc yoga bee 2069314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBananaGrabber: I totally agree there won't be many movies once baby gets here! But, there are plenty of literary masterpieces that are erotic fiction. Lady Chatterley's Lover<br /> comes to mind! Even though we probably won't get another great masterpiece anytime soon, writers can still properly use spellcheck and an editor lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069307 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:05:17 +0000 MrsBananaGrabber 2069307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We'll probably go see it together (just not this weekend- too crowded). We like going to the movies, and know we won't have time once there's a baby. If it sucks, oh well.</p> <p>I read all 3 books. The writing is terrible, but the plot was entertaining enough, which was all I expected. If you read 50 Shades of Grey expecting a literary masterpiece then it's your own fault when you're disappointed. My husband couldn't get through the first chapter because the writing bothered him so much, but he has no problem with going to the movie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069266 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:30:25 +0000 simplyfelicity 2069266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coopsmama: Exactly why I have steered clear of these books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069242 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:09:01 +0000 marionberry 2069242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went and saw the movie with a girlfriend and my sister mid-day today. I hadn't read the books but intend to. I thought the movie was pretty good and didn't invite my husband because a) he's working and b) most of it is about a love story - he hates those kinds of movies. He'd rather we saw a comedy together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069225 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 18:51:50 +0000 DigAPony 2069225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband and I love to watch bad movies and make dumb jokes throughout, so I would love to watch this movie at home in a few months! It looks hilarious (meaning, so bad it's good). Didn't read the book but loved reading excerpts online of the terrible, terrible writing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069156 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 17:50:42 +0000 dc yoga bee 2069156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: my MIL is obsessed with the series, which surprised me since she's super Christian and always throwing a bible verse at people :shocked: .I'm christian too, just she's such a hypocrite. I read the first book, and the writing and editing were awful! If it comes to HBO I'll watch it, but we are going to see Kingsmen instead! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069091 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 17:00:41 +0000 artsyfartsy 2069091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to see it today. I wasn't planning on seeing it in theaters but we were able to go on a midday date where the crowds would be low. I've read the books and the movie was okay. I expected it to be bad but it wasn't as bad as I thought. There were some enjoyable moments. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069090 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 17:00:34 +0000 illumina 2069090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've read all of the books, so I would quite like to see the movie...but I'll probably wait until it's on DVD. I'd feel too embarrassed to watch it with anyone else! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069078 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 16:51:45 +0000 Maysprout 2069078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All I can think of is this</p> <p><a href="https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7If1e50VNjI" rel="nofollow">https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7If1e50VNjI</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2069074 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 16:49:23 +0000 JerricaBenton 2069074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2015/02/fifty-shades-of-grey-review" rel="nofollow">http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2015/02/fifty-shades-of-grey-review</a> </p> <p>This is a pretty positive review and I tend to agree with this author...</p> <p>@bluestripedbee: yeah, I've read bad books and ive read boring books i couldnt finish.

I read the book and I mean, it was terrible but I still finished it lol. I'm sure it won't be the best movie ever but the commercials actually make it look better than I thought itwould be. At best, it's pretty good and at worst, we have a laugh. I wouldn't feel uncomfortable watching it with DH and he's interested in seeing what all the hype is about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-take-your-so-to-see-50-shades-of-grey/page/2#post-2068820 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 14:24:34 +0000 loveisstrange 2068820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, because it's going to be freaking awful. </p>
