I think the audience's ideal is two actors who have such great chemistry that they fall in love while they're filming the movie, which is probably why we also see so many fauxmances.

i told my bff that we would be going to see this opening night, even if it means me driving 400 miles. i told her this WHEN THE RELEASE DATE CAME OUT.

I read Fifty Shades last summer (it took all of a DAY because it was awful.) And in the book it seems she prefers Ana but he insists on calling her Anastasia, which IRRITATED THE FUCK out of me. You call me the name I tell you to call me, asshole. Not the name you prefer to call me. It's my fucking name.

HOLY SHIT, Melanie Griffith is Tippi Hedren's daughter?!? SO DAKOTA JOHNSON IS TIPPI HEDREN'S GRANDDAUGHTER? What the ever loving fuck.*

a) Dakota Johnson wants to make it as an actress "on her own merits" or some bullshit

You said "damp." JAMMF forvever!

Yeah, he has not been coming across well in interviews. He's been kinda arrogant and judgmental and off-putting and completely oblivious to that reality. That, coupled with their body language, makes me think that he's unpleasant in a way he's not even aware of and she had to grit her teeth through every minute of his…

It wouldn't surprise me if she was a raging bitch. I just never really read anything about her. I don't think it helps that both of them know this movie will fucking suck.

Yeah! I also learned that David Duchovney and Gillian Anderson didn't get along while making The X Files.

A Belfast-raised friend of mine mentioned the other day that she'd been close friends with Jamie Dornan's sister when they were at school, and said that he was actually very sweet. Quite shy. Terribly awkward. My friend is delightfully caustic and not at all inclined to soften her assesments of people, so I was…

You're welcome! It's pure gossip and I'm reporting it completely irresponsibly. If you repeat it and anyone asks, you should probably not tell them it came from a stranger named "Boobs McGee."

Wait, is the female character's name ALEXANDRA SILVER? SO THE MAIN CHARACTERS ARE SILVER AND GREY???

Yeah, I might see it only if it's SO BAD that it becomes a cult phenomenon. And by see it I mean "torrent it and then play it in the background while I'm sitting in the tub shaving my junk."

I had a childhood friend (whom I'm no longer in touch with) that went to boarding school for her freshman year of high school and Dakota Johnson was her roommate. Apparently she did a lot of coke and/or other drugs and was just a nasty bitch. Said friend ended up returning home to go to regular high school after that…

I heard they're dating, Sam and Caitriona, that is, not Dakota and Jamie the kitchen sponge and throw rug of sexual chemistry.

Oh man, most movie PR campaigns play up the chemistry between actors to try to fill theatre seats (see Twilight), trying to convince us that real romance translates to onscreen smoldering. They must really have settled for people hate watching Fifty if they are trying to lure us to pay money to see just how much…

The MOST important thing about this 50 Shades of Grey trainwreck is that Gillian Anderson looks fantastic.

This movie is going to crash and burn and I CAN'T WAIT!

Just for the sake of comparison:
