50 shades

of Grey was on HBO over the weekend.

Was not impressed.

You could see her slowly turning the tables on the guy before the big finale.

I'd probably give it 1 star.
Saw it a while ago. They didn't do a good job

Lol awwww Camille!!! It was for the mainstream civilians, you know if we wrote books on the other hand.....Lmfao! Laural K. Hamilton is one of my favs!! All kinds of shit going on. Lmk if ya wanna read😈
I can tell you that the BDSM community despises the books and movies. It's such a poor representation of BDSM. He lightly whacks her with the flogger and she acts like it hurt. I damn near pissed myself laughing in the theater and had to leave because I couldn't stop laughing. I tried to read the books and was horrified by all the whining and fake wanna be dom crap. I did find the books useful for one thing....bonfires.
The movie and books, definitely not for those already aware and have partaken in bdsm culture. The acting in the movie was not great either. Have only read a few pages of the book having seen it on the shelf before the movie release and was curious.

I personally have never thought of partaking in it until I saw the book one day and read a few pages and started looking into the bdsm scene more. Watched the movie with a date for fun.

Due to the series however, it's opened the door for myself to look into aspects of bdsm (perhaps some lighter aspects before maybe doing too much) I never would of thought to look at or experience for myself. Did I enjoy the movie or book? No, not particularly. Had its moments. I do however appreciate the awareness it's brought to the scene and open my level of fantasy to more than previously thought of. Always thought it just had to do with pain or torture as opposed to other parts of bdsm I now do enjoy.
I liked the books myself... They aren't Anne Rice's spin on Cinderella erotica good, but they're decent. I read all three within a week. The movie just seemed rushed.

Gotta crawl before you walk babe...

They're different, and that's ok, for people who NEVER change up their routines in bed this could be off the charts and mind blowing for them.
First, I see it as a good thing, to introduce all of these people who might be suffering from super vanilla sex lives and give them some hint of how wonderful it might be to try new things.
Another thing... some people are not receptive to OVER STIMULATION.
I have intentionally avoided desensitizing myself or over stimulating and I have to say I'm pretty sure I have [AMAZING] orgasms easier than some hardcore sexual people.
I don't even need to get drunk or anything, I am overwhelmed with sensations without needing excessive excitement.
I'm a simple gal, l suppose.

This makes a cheesy movie with bad acting ... all worth it.

And LustyBustyGina38FF ... I'm not sure which moment I became intolerant of sitting in the theatre to continue watching 50 Shades.
It was definitely the sticking the pencil eraser in her lips, one time too many times, too soon.
Probably 15 minutes worth and I was up and out .. it was definitely during the initial interview... and went to watch the Wedding Ringer.
