fifty shades freed

You may not have noticed it, but the final results of the 2017 domestic box office were historic. For the first time since 1958, the top three films in a given year all featured female protagonists.

Fans of the franchise won't be denied satisfaction much longer as Ana and Christian return to get some action and put this thing to bed.

2018 has tons of films to get excited about, but these 25 are the ones that have us buzzing the most.

While the latest trailer for the new movie does touch on the wedding celebration, we get far more from the aftermath.

But it's never too early to start advertising for a big movie, and Universal is doing just that with the very first trailer for Fifty Shades Freed.

Movies have been looking to previously created material for films for about as long as there have been movies. Over the decades no source has been as popular for adaptation as the novel.

And if you ask director Sam Taylor-Johnson how she feels about directing the first movie Fifty Shades of Grey, she'd likely give you some blunt thoughts about the franchise.

Down Under, however, we're really hoping that one person watched the sequel by themselves in a Sydney, Australia movie theater, because the employees cleaning up after a screening found a cucumber.
