| 05 Feb 2021 | Why Did We Watch This? - The Fifty Shades Franchise | 01:27:25 | |
The biggest question of 2021 will surely be why we endured The Fifty Shades franchise? Well, after being challenged to dedicate an entire episode to Fifty Shades and specifically Fifty Shades Freed, by Endgame winner Lucy Fur, we thought what better time than to hate on these films, at what is meant to be the most romantic time of the year? Joined by Lucy, along with friend of the show, and film fan Alexandra McCreadie we talk all about the huge problems of the story, it's lacklustre appeal, and it's frankly disturbing morals. We ask whether their terrible quality warrant a place in The Movie Vault, as well as playing this week's Endgame- "Fact or Fan-fiction". Like, review, and subscribe for more crazy challenges, and big conversations in the world of film! #FiftyShades #FiftyShadesOfGrey #FiftyShadesFreed #BadMovies #ELJames #JamieDornan #DakotaJohnson Hosted on Acast.
