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.
