I STILL can't believe this train wreck is actually happening.  I've also seen an EW facebook post stating that EL James' top choice was RPatz.  No sh1t sherlock, considering the whole thing was a rip off Twilight in the first place.  I read through some of the comments and was relieved some of the replies were about the original fanfiction, and several actually posted the original FF title - MotU.

    When I first saw the casting news, I thought it said Dakota Fanning.  I almost spit all over my computer.  Then I actually READ what it said.

    I wonder if Sons of Anarchy guy will watch videos of Robert Pattinson in order to get into character. Maybe he'll speak in a British accent because...obviously.

    It feels weird to me that Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith's daughter is going to be doing all that nasty. What is MOTU?

    I just read about this on moviepilot, which has some pretty entertaining gifs posted on the subject. I've never read the book just because it's just not the sort of thing I'm into, but I was interested to see if they would actually allow a movie like this to go into cinemas.
    Then again, I guess they've let worse hit the big screen.

    I will SEE this trainwreck of a movie and I will probably have to dress in full bondage gear and see it on opening night.  Anyone have a ball gag I could borrow?   And I'm going to make that "studio audience" Oooooo noise every time Grey and Ana kiss.  There are some cultural experiences one should NOT MISS!!

    This is why there should be a sarcasm font. I have no idea whether or not I should judge you.

    I decided after the "ball-gag" part that it was sarcasm. I hope I'm right.

    Sigh.  Yes, it was sarcasm.  I wish you guys knew me in real life.  Because I am not the kind of person who would sincerely ask my friends to borrow a ball gag.

    Agreed.

    Also, I'm not going to lie - while I won't pay money for this movie, damn straight I'll watch it on Netflix.  I'm incapable of saying no to 2 hours of this:

    Isn't he on a TV show? Watch him in that instead. Or you know, sleep with that magazine under your pillow. No good can come from this film. I really hope his career doesn't get ruined in the process.
