Well, We Might as Well Watch the Trailer for ‘Fifty Shades of Grey,’ Right?

Despite what Charlie Hunnam had to say earlier this week about Fifty Shades of Grey (which he's not even in) not being mommy porn, you know and I know that it most definitely is mommy porn. And that's okay, because—NEWSFLASH!—sex is awesome. Ergo, all books about sex—even books written exclusively for women that have characters named Anastasia Steele—are also awesome.

Now, does that mean the Fifty Shades of Grey movie will be awesome, too? Absolutely not. But the first trailer, which for some reason made its debut on the Today show this morning, doesn't look half bad. There's a little smooching, a little under-the-table fondling, a little blindfolding, a little horse cropping, a little stripping, a little handcuffing and, yes, even a little writhing.

In short, there are worse things you could do with the next two and a half minutes of your life. So have a look and then set an alarm on your phone to remind you to get tickets in advance. The movie hits theaters on Valentines Day 2015 (there's a shock), and whoever you're taking out that night is going to want to see it.
