    Guys would never react as stupidly as this, especially not comic book fans and definitely not over the casting of Batman!

    Bat Damon!

    You'd nearly think they gave Shane MacGowan the lead role from going by the reaction of fans.

    I honestly have no respect for 50 Shades fans whatsoever.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

    Leviticus 19:34

    I honestly don't know how it got so popular, bunch of 40 - 50 year old aul wans reading it who secretly want a bit of bondage action.

    But has anyone actually read any of it? It's very poorly written it's actually funny. The dialog is awful...

    ' Oh he strokes his essence around her humid aura , he trobbing sence of lustfull passion'....GTFO!!

    Stupid cow that wrote laughing all the way to the bank.

    How selfish do you have to be to start a petition like that? The book sold millions and it doesnt suit you so you want it changed? Do they really think their opinion outweighs the author and director? Its laughable.

    Guess those fans are thinking Charlie Hunnam's going to be sporting his Jax Teller look in the new flick. :pac:

    I couldn't care less, as I won't be watching the film..

    Though if Snoopy stars in it ... that could be a different story..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,925 ✭✭✭✭anncoates


    I assume that 50 Shades Of Grey fans draw so much attention because it's one of the rare occasions where it's actually not men obsessively demonstrating expertise about arcane subcultural minutiae that is of little interest to most functional adults.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,506 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Of course when a book of the same genre as 50 Shades of Grey is geared towards women it's regarded as some sort of revolutionary cultural phenomenon. But if a similar book's target audience was men, it would be regarded as porn.

    God dammit

    ewwwwwwwwwwwww! :D

    I saw this movie the last day.
    It's called Secretary.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,650 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    Anyone signing that petition is fcuking retarded. And not just a little retarded, they've gone full retard. For so many reasons they don't understand the movie business and they'll still go see it when the movie comes out.

    Nah see Secretary was funny and charming and well written, 50 Shades is none of those.

    On the other hand: it would just be viewed as lads enjoying porn, as is the norm for lads. But women enjoying porn gets turned into a big deal.

    Not that I'd read the book - what I know about it, it seems about as sexy as the potted plant next to me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,576 ✭✭✭pajor


    That book has always given me the heeby geebies, mainly due to it outselling one of the most beloved children's books of all time.

    But the film (and it's sequels no doubt) are going to have even more hype and nonsense around them than the Harry Potter series. It hasn't even begun production yet and already there's all this sh1te. :rolleyes:

    All I got from that was the prospect of Jack Nicholson uttering the immortal line

    "Who's Batman"

    I wonder if there will be a movie adaptation of Alan Shatters steamy novel...starring Alan Shatter

    You should read a few chapters just to see how hilariously bad it is. It's honestly like something a 16 year old would write, using the same phrases over and over and over again and terms she clearly doesn't understand. My former housemate was reading the series and I read a few random chapters of it, awful stuff.

    The woman they want to play the female lead is 32 years of age, whereas in the novel the character is 21 or something.
    Thought it was gonna have big Hollywood stars in it, and it gets some lad from Byker Grove.

    He has a look of a Julio Iglesias type lothario I've always thought. Imagine him now in his steamy erotic movie... D'ya like that image? Do ya? :pac:

    To be fair, Alexis Bliedel is gorgeous, and could play a youngster again. But couldn't play an abused girl so well.

    Emma Watson was rumoured at one point but she tweeted about how ridiculous that was, I'd say any big name actors know well it's going to be awful sh1te (so a close adaptation :pac: ) and are avoiding it. Charlie Hunnam is in Sons of Anarchy and was in Pacific Rim so he has a pretty popular tv show and a big blockbuster this year to his name, he's not exactly a household name yet though.

    Just for balance, throw in a scantily clad Joan Burton. Oh Lord, what have I started :(
