Don't play coy. If you're seeing "Fifty Shades of Grey" this weekend, you're seeing it for one reason and one reason only. Sex. Lots and lots of sex. And for those who are seeking out "Fifty Shades" to satisfy their primal movie urges, there's a new report out there that details just how long it'll take before Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey get down to the R-rated stuff.
According to the Telegraph (via MTV News), audiences at the film's first test screenings had to wait more than 40 minutes into the movie for the characters to start having sex. Apparently, a lot of audience members didn't like that- many were "restless" during the movie's opening and just wanted the explicit stuff, not the story or the buildup.
Said one audience member: "Undoubtedly the audience was growing restless when after 40 minutes into the action there had still been, er, no action."
MTV also cultivated a list of everything a sex-hungry "Fifty Shades" fan needs to know. Things like: are we going to see Jamie Dornan nude in the film? The answer, apparently, is no- but there may be a "glimmer" of his private parts.
As well, MTV informs us that the film will show its stars pubic hair (on a regular basis, apparently) and will have at least one very long and very graphic full-on sex scene.
That tidbit about Dornan's manhood may become a pretty big deal- some online are already calling for Dornan to show full-frontal nudity in the film, and seem pretty peeved that the actor's spoken publically about his reluctance to do so. With the film opening the weekend, it seems pretty set that Dornan won't be able to change the film one way or another (unless there's a string of insanely, impossibly last-minute nudity reshoots), so however the movie comes out, just accept it as it is. Genitals or no genitals.
