Is there any bad or good movie theater experiences from Fifty Shades Of Grey??? + BQ??

I heard Fifty Shades Of Grey had a 50% audience response (26% by critics) on Rotten Tomatoes and everyone said it was disgusting, boring, or horrible, but there were wet seats covered in urine said to be on comments for FSOG's 1st trailer back in last July on YouTube. I'm no stranger to sitting in wet seats, i cause and sit on it twice (Superman Returns and Gridiron Gang) and that's because i can't hold it thru the whole running time of this movie at the time. it had people walk-out from Fifty Shades Of Grey (which i also walk out, but from Slumdog Millionaire during the scene where the Indian had his nipples electrocuted because my sister cannot stand torture in films and i didn't know there was torture in this movie at the time)

BQ - If Fifty Shades Of Grey was such a cash-cow, why was some faith-based romantic movie, Old Fashioned having a better audience response than Fifty Shades Of Grey on IMDb and RT???

Old Fashioned had 90% by audience on RT and 7.1 on IMDb opposed to FSOG's current 50% and 3.9. , Old Fashioned is well-acted and got lots of chemistry in the film and Fifty Shades Of Grey held zero chemistry off-screen because the two leading people hated each other in real-life, a bland script, and it was badly acted. so thanks critics who make positive reviews to FSOG for nothing for attempting to ruin independent films like Boyhood and Instructions Not Included from becoming box office hits.

    To answer your BQ:

    Fifty Shades of Grey is based on a best selling book, so there is already a built in audience.

    I don't quite understand your last statement: "thanks critics who make positive reviews to FSOG for nothing for attempting to ruin independent films like Boyhood and Instructions Not Included from becoming box office hits."

    By all accounts, the film, and the book, has had terrible reviews from both the audiences and the critics. Independent films like Boyhood and Instructions Not Included tend to get good reviews, but are given limited releases. "Grey" was released in over 3000 theaters while Boyhood was released in over 700 theaters. With Old Fashioned, it was released in 200 theaters.
