Twilight Appreciation!

[RhiChiChi]

I just watched the movie & the 2nd disk with all the outtakes & stuff.

Why oh why did they make Rob Pattison put on that crap American accent when he has the most drooly English accent. Yeah, I know he is suppose to be American, but sheesh they could have overlooked that.
Edward was not 'smooth' enough IMO & I agree with Teagz, not very confident.
Comparing the book & the movie there is no comparison, but as a movie on it's own it's ok. I hope the next one is better.

so can anyone come up with suggestions as to who as an actor would have been a better Edward?
I cant think of ANYONE good enough!!

Starrysky "as far as Im concerned, Edward can cover me in bruises, break my headboard and bite my pillows any day!!!"

I cant think of anyone else who could have played Edward, I think Rob nailed it although agree that he wasnt as confident as he was in the book. I read on the Twilight Wiki website that that was Rob's interpretation of Edward, and he really butted heads with Steph Meyer over it. Rumor has it that he was even writing suicide notes to himself...tres weird!

DH is out all day tomorrow, will get into my Team Edward tee and watch the movie me thinks...

That's interesting about Rob's interpretation of Edward cos I thought it was just a bit of poor directing. When I watched the second disk with the director, Stephanie Meyer etc.... I felt that the director was purely focussed on the scene & effects.
I can't think of anyone else who would have done Edwards character anymore justice though. I think if he was a bit more like himself personally it would have been heaps better. Am going to watch it again b/c when I watched it, it was in sections (due to time) and I think this time it will flow better, also I'll try not to be so critical & judge it against the book so much.
