Here are the ten facts--for fans, BY fans-- that everyone needs to know before seeing the Fifty Shades of Grey movie. A special thanks to all users who contributed their own fan facts here!

2. Ana is a shy, awkward girl who isn't used to getting a lot of attention.
3. Ana's roommate, Kate, gets sick and is unable to attend her scheduled interview with the entrepreneur, Christian Grey. Ana does her a favor and goes instead. This is how she meets the illustrious Christian Grey.

6. Christian is very upfront that he is not "a hearts and flowers kind of guy".

9. Christian has a "Red Room of Pain", which is full of BDSM toys and equipment.
