10 Movies That Broke Promises To Fans

7. It Will Feature "Graphic Nudity" - Fifty Shades Of Grey

Now, nobody's saying that the Fifty Shades of Grey movies were ever going to be high-art, but they at least stood a fair chance of delivering on the one thing just about everyone turned up to see: plenty of full-frontal nudity of both the male and female variety.

Despite Universal playing-up the MPAA's description of "graphic nudity" ahead of the erotic drama's release, throngs of fans were disappointed to discover that the adaptation of E.L. James' Twilight fanfic was a deflatingly tasteful affair, more or less unfolding like a mannered, sterile softcore porno.

If you're going to adapt one of the most amusingly lurid pieces of smut ever put to print, why wouldn't you commit fully to the dong-hanging absurdity? Instead, there wasn't a single penis on display, to say nothing of the dispiritingly vanilla approach to BDSM as a whole.

As usual, it comes down to money. Universal knew that effectively shooting the most expensive porn film in the world would be one step too far for the repressed housewives who sold out James' novel series, and that more conservative cinema chains wouldn't dare screen a film with an NC-17 rating.

So instead, fans had to settle for an hilariously tame scattering of boring sex interspersed with Razzie-worthy thriller melodrama. Awful.
