Yeah, you're right about 50 Shades. It's so sloppily-written it hurts. Apparently, the new one, "Grey", is even worse.

Another example of "shit but popular" stuff is Sword Art Online, which copies just about every harem/video game anime trope that it can get its hands on, adding a half-assed romance and 1930s gender roles for good measure, and yet still manages to be one of the most popular anime around.
