"50 Shades of Grey" Jumped to the Big Screen





Fifty Shades of Grey Trailer by IGN

There have been mixed reviews on this movie but I enjoyed it.  I make it a habit to not go into a movie expecting it to be just like the book so there is very little disappointment.  Friends and I have had some disagreements as to the casting but I believe that they got it right with both Jamie Dornan (also star of "The Fall") and Dakota Johnson.  What would have made the film better was if they could have done more to to explain the complexity of Grey's character.  People who have not read the books and just see the trailers tend to make uninformed judgments on Grey and believe him to be an abuser and that somehow this movie is glorifying abuse.  It does not.  All I can say is, make an informed judgement AFTER reading the entire series of the books.  It is a romance story mixed with some kink, mixed with a psychological thriller.

The wireless provider has partnered with Heroes‘ creator Tim Kring, also the creator of Fox’s Touch and their agency BBDO to launch Daybreak, a story told through five online films, two websites and a smartphone app, each exploring different facets of an exciting and complex character journey. The storyline is connected to Fox’s Touch and premiered right after the finale of the show. There’s nothing worse then watching your favorite show end, knowing that you’ll have to wait months for it to return (and in some cases not knowing when it will return). AT&T recognized this unique opportunity and decided to create an entire web show that fans would love across multiple platforms, connecting to Touch in a way that’s sincere while not affecting the main plot at all. “Technology, fueled by AT&T’s 4G network, plays a starring role in Daybreak,” the brand describes on their website. ” The site also explains that “after visiting AT&T Labs, (Kring) was convinced that our technology could help him lead the future of storytelling, and Daybreak is a product of that.” The storyline focuses on an object called an “ancient and mysterious objected called a dodecahedron,” which has be returned to avoid catastrophes."
