What are the main differences between '50 Shades of Grey' and the 'Twilight' fanfiction it was based on?

Well, 'Twilight' is mainly a story about young love in a supernatural setting, with a focus on the love triangle between Bella, Edward, and Jacob. It has elements of vampire and werewolf lore. In contrast, '50 Shades of Grey' which started as 'Twilight' fanfiction, focuses on an adult relationship that involves elements of dominance and submission in a more contemporary, non - supernatural world. The characters in '50 Shades' are also more worldly and complex in terms of their sexual desires and relationships compared to the rather pure - hearted characters in 'Twilight'. Additionally, the overall tone of '50 Shades' is much more sexually charged and darker in some ways than the more romantic and somewhat idealized 'Twilight'.

The main difference is the theme. 'Twilight' is mainly a story about vampires, werewolves and a love triangle. It has a more fantastical and teen - oriented plot. '50 Shades of Grey', on the other hand, focuses on an adult relationship with elements of BDSM. Another difference is the target audience. 'Twilight' is aimed at a younger, more general audience, while '50 Shades of Grey' is for a more mature audience.

The main difference is the level of sexual content. Twilight is more of a young - adult, supernatural romance, focusing on the relationship between Bella and Edward in a more chaste way. In contrast, '50 Shades of Grey' (originally fanfiction) delves deeply into BDSM themes and has a much more sexually explicit nature. Also, the tone of the two is different. Twilight has a more dreamy, fantastical tone, while '50 Shades' is darker and more focused on the power dynamics in the relationship.

One similarity is the relationship dynamic. In both, there is a dominant male figure in the relationship. In 'Twilight', Edward is very protective and has a certain amount of control in his relationship with Bella. Similarly, in 'Fifty Shades', Christian Grey is a dominant character. Another similarity could be the female lead's naivete. Bella in 'Twilight' is somewhat innocent and inexperienced, and Anastasia in 'Fifty Shades' also starts out that way in the relationship.

The main difference is the level of sexual content. 'Twilight' is more of a young - adult romance with a focus on the relationship between Bella and Edward in a more innocent, vampire - human love story context. '50 Shades', on the other hand, has a heavy focus on BDSM elements in the relationship between Anastasia and Christian. Also, 'Twilight' has a supernatural aspect with vampires and werewolves which '50 Shades' doesn't have.

One main difference is the branding. The fanfiction was a free - form work while '50 Shades of Grey' became a commercial product. Also, the plot was further developed and refined for a wider audience in the published version.

Well, both types of fanfiction might share a common theme of transformation. In 'Twilight' the main character Bella undergoes a transformation in her life when she gets involved with Edward and his vampire world. In '50 Shades of Grey', Anastasia experiences a transformation in her understanding of herself and her desires through her relationship with Christian. Also, they both tend to have a lot of descriptive writing about the settings and the characters' inner thoughts, which is a characteristic of fanfiction in general.

Well, the relationship dynamics are somewhat similar. Just as Bella was drawn to Edward in Twilight, Anastasia is drawn to Christian in Fifty Shades of Grey. There is an element of the female character being a bit out of her depth in a relationship with a more powerful and experienced male. Also, both stories have a focus on a relationship that is all - consuming for the female lead. However, Fifty Shades of Grey delved into more adult themes which Twilight didn't touch on.

Fifty Shades of Grey started as a Twilight fanfiction but underwent significant changes to become its own separate story.

Yes. It began as Twilight fanfiction. It borrowed some elements from the Twilight world, like the idea of an intense relationship between the main characters. But then it took on its own identity with a different focus on more mature and complex relationship dynamics that were not really present in the Twilight series.
