Baseball provided the backdrop. In 1970, baseball games were big social events. Couples might have met at the stadium, and the excitement of the game added a special spark to their relationship.

'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.
