Fifty Shades of Grey - will you succumb?

Come on, admit it, we know you've read the book, and we reckon loads of you have got it on your Kindle just so you can read it in secret.
It might have got a bit weird with Jamie Dornan being a serial killer in The Fall, but we're sure he's put all that stuff behind him now and thrown himself into his new role as the enigmatic Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey.
He's made a lovely job of it in the . So it would be rude to not pop along and take a look, you know, just so we all can educate ourselves and give a considered opinion.
It seems Jamie did his research into BDSM and had this to say:
?It?s a far bigger scene than I imagined: in pretty much any city in the world that you could name, people want to get spanked with a paddle with studs on it?
Are you prepared to ADMIT you'll be going?

Hullo all,

Call it female intuition, but we're getting the sneaking feeling you're not very excited about 50 Shades. Which of course, is absolutely fine.

We started this thread to kick off discussion in our shiny new Movies topic (ain't she a beaut?) and we thought that since 50 Shades is an upcoming release that lots of you would have strong feelings about, it would be a good one to get the ball rolling. There's nothing more to it than that really. You're more than welcome to start a thread here saying why you hate 50 Shades and how wild BDSM horses couldn't drag you there.

There's a bit more info about our new Movies topic here, and please do let us know what you think!

If 50 Shades doesn't tickle you, what are you looking forward to seeing this year?

Apologies if what was posted above has irked. Absolutely NOT our intention.

To paraphrase Baby's dad Doctor Houseman: "When we're wrong we say we're wrong"

Personally I bought the books, as I wanted to see what the hype was about but agree with many of you that it didn't live up to the hype for many a reason and I won't be seeing the film. and not just cos I've only been to the cinema twice since DS1 was born

But it will be one of those that will be discussed aplenty everywhere so do forgive us on that one.

But I did watch that Emily Blunt Tom Cruise one last night on DVD with DH. which I was expecting to HATE and found it quite good actually.
