    <p>Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates: I pissed myself laughing at this movie. Zac Efron, the little dude from Workaholics, Aubrey Plaza and Anna Kendrick. Standard comedy storyline but nearly every single joke worked if you like a mix of gross out and pile on type lists humour.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Jegga/M4L/a bunch of poster's from the Guns and Strippers thread - there is bush, and by bush, I mean bush (none of this manicured Game of Thrones business).</p>

    <p>I finally got around to watching Fifty Shades of Grey.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It is so much better than the book, but that is what they call damned with faint praise.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Dakota Johnson does pretty bloody well considering Ana is such a flaky moron in the book, actually gives her a bit of heart and humour. Jamie Dornan is a cardboard cutout, but Christian is such a revolting, creepy character, he had nothing to work with. The sex scenes are tepid at best, everything given a glossy plastic finish. Rainy day, no brainpower required flick.</p>

    <p>the Trust - Nick Cage & Frodo.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Basically a couple of low rung cops and Cage finds out about a store of loot and convinces Frodo to go on a<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> <span style="color:rgb(84,84,84);">sort of... </span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:rgb(106,106,106);">mission</span><span style="color:rgb(84,84,84);">... </span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:rgb(106,106,106);">quest</span><span style="color:rgb(84,84,84);">... </span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:rgb(106,106,106);">thing</span></span></span> with him to steal it...pretty lame ending TBH </p>

    <p>Even authors are allowed to be readers, funnily enough. And like all other humans, our tastes vary. I admire E L James' success and savvy, but I hate the way she portrayed BDSM in her books. It is wrong and damaging and incredibly insulting to those who practice it.</p>

    For something that started as a piece of Twilight fan fiction, she did alright out of it.<br><br>
    But the wife read the book and said it was more "chick with serious issues" than "erotic fiction".<br><br>
    Mrs TA studied psychology at Uni, hence her analysis.<br><br>
    So I didn't get a single root out of it.

    <p>Ha, yeah, probably the wedding episode rather than Wentworth Prison in Season 1.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>To turn her into a sobbing mess seeking comfort sex, the episode 'Faith' in Season 2.</p>

    <p>I've seen that on Netflix - might give it a look.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Not sure what it is about, but my personal observation is that, unless its got Channing Tatum and/or Chris Hemsworth shirtless and ripped, its not going to do it.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Further observation reveals that, if the studios can manage it, they should just release new versions of Magic Mike on a regular basis so that Mrs TA can have a night out with her friends, including dinner and drinks.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>For some reason, that works better than trying to convince her to ovulate more than once every 28 days.</p>

    <p>Scottish series set in early Georgian times (1740s), based on the books by Diana Gabaldon. Heroine Claire Randall is a time traveller from 1940's England.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Sam Heughan (hero Jamie Fraser) is hot, shirtless and ripped, in a kilt. Lots of sex, battles, seriously fucking evil villains, and gorgeous scenery.</p>
