The billionaire angle is what bothers me the most.

Really subtle, ladies.

Fifty Shades of Grey has attracted criticism due to its origin as a fan fiction based on the Twilight novels, with some readers predicting copyright issues due to this connection. Amanda Hayward of The Writer's Coffee Shop responded to these claims by stating that Fifty Shades of Grey "bore very little resemblance to Twilight" and that "Twilight and [the] Fifty Shades trilogy are worlds apart".[36] The fan fiction origin of the book resulted in a lawsuit after the movie rights were sold, with claims that "much or all" of the Fifty Shades material was part of the public domain, and that the federal copyright registrations for the books were "invalid and unenforceable",[37] but the lawsuit was eventually settled out of court for an undisclosed amount of money.[38] -- Also something to grind your teeth to.

Anyway, shitty stories like this give us aspiring novelists hope to be published.

Ditto.

Especially the way the protagonist shits all over the dude who, you know, had a normal crush on her at the start

But then I guess there wouldn't have been a story, so...

Nah man, I get it. I just wish women would stop humiliating themselves with these kinds of movies.

Gonna take back the vote, I tell ya what.

You can hate on Gyllenhaal, T-bird-- but she and James Spader were both excellent in that movie.

I have hate in my heart, mane.

Man, she was ugly as sin in that movie.

Bruce could do better. Ms. Hathaway.

I think it was just the repetition. Calling herself goddess over and over again and usinh shite every other word was stupid.

Ah, gotcha.

Yeah, she did kinda wear out that "goddess" trope, I'll admit.

In batman begins one of the last images I have is Katie Holmes and her nipples poking through her shirt, and the all of the sudden we have to look at Maggie Gyllenhaal. It was a crime.
