Fifty Shades Of Grey will be raunchiest film in more than a DECADE with 20 minutes of sex
UK Daily Mail ^ | February 1, 2015 | Sara Malm

Fifty Shades of Grey is set to feature more sex on screen than the 100 raunchiest films released in 2014 put together, making it the most erotic mainstream movie in a decade. The film, which premieres on Valentine's Day features a dozen sex scenes, which make up 20 minutes of its total 100-minute running time. This follows an interview with actor Jamie Dornan, who plays main man Christian Grey, where he says he 'does not believe it is pornographic or even erotic.'

The craziest part to contemplate: The book is supposedly about how an older guy takes a younger woman and turns her into his sex slave. When we saw the ad at our party, we talked about the insanity of the feminist movement, how there isn't one feminist speaking out against this in spite of the plot of the abused and used woman.

We concluded the feminists, and our culture have simply lost their collective minds and souls.

Sex scenes of less than two minutes each?

Aren’t there clinics to help men with problems like that?

“feminist” is just another front of the radical left, they don’t really give a crap about women they just want to take down modern culture

Absolutely. They are more interested in being good one world socialists than actually helping women.

Witness how they never speak against Islam, but pretend it's here in the US where we have a war on women.

I confronted her about the S & M stuff and she said it was just the irresistible part of him that reminded her of me.

"Fifty Shades of Grey is set to feature more sex on screen than the 100 raunchiest films released in 2014 put together, making it the most erotic mainstream movie in a decade."

They equate explicit sex with eroticism, but they are not the same. Porn and casual sex are NOT particularly erotic, because eroticism requires a strong element of personalism and even mystery.

“Let’s see now...Shades of Grey or Sniper....”

You could compromise and wait for the X-Rated parody of American Sniper to come out. I wonder what title they’ll come up with?

GOT is heavy on nekkid people because it is a cheap and easy way to attract an audience, and because nekkid people is a big part of the HBO brand

Sometime last year someone did a super cut of all the GOT sex scenes through season 3. It was 16 minutes long. That's just under 1% total screen time. If the story is to be believed Fifty Shades will run twenty times higher than that (100 minutes long/20 minutes of sex scenes = 20% total screen time). Who's using sex to attract an audience here?

““Game of Thrones” uses the sex scenes to advance the story, not just for the sake of having a sex scene.”

Huh? Are they discussing major plot points during the act of sex?

Twelve sex scenes of less than two minutes each. I see they went for realism.

My year in sex.

If someone thinks sex is about being tied up, beaten and abused.. they have some serious problems and should seek help.

Exactly. Which is why the nudity in GOT is gratuitous. HBO threw it in because that's what HBO does. The question is, what percentage of GOT's viewship was attracted by the nudity, as opposed to a magical medieval soap opera?

The books were best sellers, so I imagine the televised version would have been successful even if the actresses were better draped. But as successful? That's a hard question.

Yeah, I know right? It’s not like we are talking about marriage, just sex.

I glanced through the book briefly. Not interesting at all.

As far as the film, what comes to mind is LAST TANGO IN PARIS, which was very 70s sensual but kinda corny.
