"I watched the trailer for Fifty Shades Freed for the sex and it was actually frightening."

The first official teaser for Fifty Shades Freed has been released and, oh goodness, I already know what I’m doing for Valentine’s Day 2018.

Yes, we’re all going to pretend we don’t want to see it, but as women, it is our duty – nay, our obligation – to take our boyfriends/girlfriends/mothers with us and laugh.

Watch the trailer for  Fifty Shades Freed playing above to see all the action for yourself. 

From this first teaser, we can discern a few things:

  1. More kinky sex (obviously)
  2. A wedding (yes, pls)
  3. A holiday (ooo Jamie Dornan’s abs)
  4. A dark turn.
... Wot?

That all sounds completely unnecessary, but okay.

I thought it was important to pull apart the key moments from the trailer so we all know what to expect/can plan bathroom breaks/can gather a rough understanding of the storyline so when we see it, we can just focus on the sex:

Ana and Christian are genuinely getting married, even though they've been together for approximately no time at all.

This is a good decision.

Ana is impressed by the size of Christian's private plane, and it makes her smile.

What a big... plane.

They go on an tropical honeymoon and we're all allowed to objectify Christian Grey.

Hello, husband.

Sex, but also a little bit of swimming.

Honeymoon kinky sex.

OH NO, BAD THINGS ARE HAPPENING INVOLVING A GUN AND A WOMAN. I FORGOT THERE WAS ALSO A PLOT I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST SEX.

GUNSHOOTBLAST.

KNIFE! OMG.

Oooo scccccarry.

The introduction of this ~dark side~ is very confusing, and frankly, a little inconvenient for those of us who are here for one thing only. It's unnecessarily... stressful.

So, what will happen?

I feel ashamed to admit that although I've actually read the book, I have no idea. But I'm expecting some first-class comedy.
