I dont watch that many movies but I think that Twilight could have been a lot better. I understand how it was an "independent" film but it still lacked in a lot of ways. :/

Here's the thing, I get that it was low budget. I can forgive the lack of finesse in effects and such. However, independent or not, budget lacking or not does not and should not affect how actors are directed. Really, truly, I blame the director for most, if not all the suckage of Twilight.

but jasper had to look like he was pain. i get it, that he's not what we expected. but then again we all have different imaginations of our twilight characters! plus, if those characters were exactly what stephenie meyer was thinking, then we have really creative minds (;

Seriouussssslllyyyyyyy.

Jasper could have been a little more...eloquent with his feelings. And, well, I think she ruined Edward.


Was anyone wanting Jasper to look constipated? I was thinking he would be cool, calm and semi-collected.

^ Don't forget that he's supposed to be one of the "newer" vegetarians. In New Moon, he nearly attacks Bella if it had not been for Edward so I guess they have to show SOME kind of struggle.

I know, Jane, but at the same time, Jasper affects mood and typically does so to a soothing effect. The canker sore expression doesn't really jibe.

but you don't actually get to see it in new moon.

Yes, I suppose I see where you're coming from. It sucks that we probably won't see any soothing side of Jasper until Eclipse...film wise, that is.

I know that he's new, but, he just looked...wrong. Like, I'm at a loss for words as to describe his..whateverness. And it does suck that we don't get to see him until Eclipse. He's quite an interesting character.

I know! You think they would at least MENTION his power in the power. But no, Mr. Cullen just says "Its just Alice and I."

My mouth LITERALLY dropped when I read this.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE. HELL NO!

why not?! she's totally grown up and i can see her playing the part...

Bleh. What the hell is wrong with people?

Jodelle Ferland, all the way.

She'd be fine.

Bleh, hit reply or submit whatever too quickly. lol

It never (unless I'm forgetting, which is totally possible) touches upon her actual age. I've always imagined Jane to be younger than what people typically envision her to be. She's more of a Claudia (from Interview with a Vampire) type, although older, early to mid teens maybe. I don't know, just how I've imagined her.

tung'd hit it

Yeaaaaaah. Read New Moon, Thomas. It was a good one. Ish. I'm rereading that way I can actually remember what this one is about.


And actually, that Ferland chick wouldn't be too bad. She was on this one sci-fi show I watch and she was quite a talented little booger.

I just think Dakota Fanning is a wee bit overrated. But that's just me. *shrug* That and I was picture someone semi-older. Bah. I need to finish rereading it.

my brother told me, because he's good friends with people in to the movie business. that there deciding to put vanessa hudgens as Leah. there not sure yet, it was just a deciding move.

She would look better playing Jane, IMO.


She hasn't acted in any movies besides HSM, right? She needs to gain more acting experience before tackling Leah's role. Then again, Leah doesn't play a huge role in New Moon like she does in Breaking Dawn, so maybe she could do it after all. But I'd still rather have someone else.

Awesome. Why don't they cast Clay Aiken as one of the Volturi while they're at it.

If it's true that Vanessa may play Leah's role, I feel like she's only being considered because of her ethnic look: dark hair and eyes, olive-toned skin. That's just silly; there are plenty of other American Indian-looking girls with more talent who deserve the role.

that's what my brother said, and i was like no way. she can't do it, she's not that famous yet. and there's other girls who can look like leah!

I think the HSM franchise has made her pretty famous.

What about that girl who acted with Colin Farrell in The New World? She has the right look. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0452963/

mhmmm nah, i don't think so, she looks too young.

don't most vampires look young

yeah but too young for the character Leah.

Leah should be mid-teens looking, in my opinion. Alexa Vega is sort of what I have in mind.

yeah, she can do it (:

Ew. Vanessa Hudgens + Leah = EPIC fail.

Might as well just transform New Moon into a musical while you're at it.

Thanks, lion_lamb on livejournal.
Vanessa Hudgens Unlikely to Join NM Cast

yeah, there's a new flash saying that she might not be join. because there isn't going to be a Leah role in New moon. thank gooodness :D

Leah isn't a vampire.

Leah isn't that big of a character until Breaking Dawn, anyways.

Hopefully I'll have a Blu Ray player by then so I can buy the Blu Ray edition.

Even though I still haven't seen the movie.

Very true, but I would have still liked to see her in the Quileute gang.. in the distance, in the corner of the screen?

she also becomes a big part in eclipse! don't forget mang XD!

Wait, in Eclipse? Reaaalllyyyy?

Crap, man. I just finished New Moon. Once I finish reading Watchmen then i'll reread Eclipse.

IS THAT WHEN SHE TRANSFORMS? OMG!



It's all, slightly, coming back to me now.

LOL! you weren't suppose to let out the spoilers if someone didn't read that! xD
just RE-READ eclispe mang!

Well, she could transform into a lizard. I didn't say what she transformed into. She could pull a total Cloverfield, man.

They should just get no-names to play parts. Like the dude that played James, yeaaaaah. Never heard of him before this.

Maybe we should change this to the New Moon Movie Club.

I honestly thought Twilight was the nice book ever written, until I read New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn. I can’t wait for New Moon to come out. I read the books and they send chills down my spine. I only hope that the other movies will be just good. I remember I had come across this opinion poll which says 'Finding a girl that doesn't like the 'twilight' series is near impossible.' very true in my case.

yeah tell Smarmosaur to make a new thread, although this topic would be closed once it reaches 20 pages lol xD! btw, it's getting closer to march! i already want them to start shooting ^___^ XD!

I edited the topic title. :P

Sweeeeet, gracias!

o0o0o0o! that made this topic much hotter :D

Twilight is awesome :) How many people actually cried?am i the only one who did hahaha

lol i'm in the middle of watching it and it's one of the most awkward movies ever man. >.<

Yes. Yes it is. Have you read the book?

yeah, i've read all four. i'm not a fan, really, and i don't know exactly why i kept reading all of them, but... i did. >.<

so i'm not sure if its just my version of the movie, but why are jacob's teeth SO WHITE. it's like they did SUPER STRENGTH TOOTH WHITENING on his teeth.

LOL I thought the same thing about his teeth when I went to go see it. Doesn't help he's so tan either. Haha.

I was in the back row of the theater literally laughing my ass off at it. It was so horrible compared to the book.

man they have zero chemistry and zero relationship development. -_-

why does edward talk like a little girl and have a weird eye twitching face half the time

lol the scene with carlisle changing edward looked almost homoerotic :D
