50 Shades of Fuckin' Had It. [View all]

I have no intention of seeing it, no intention of reading it, & am sick of seeing threads about it, none of which I have bothered to enter. American pop culture is a cesspool so why obsess about this particular turd? If you want to see it, see it. If you don't, don't. In either case, please quit obsessing about it.
