And the concession stand will only sell food that reminds you of Twilight! And they'll stop the Twi-Noobs and Posers at the door.

Okay, to me, all casting choices were dead on. Bella and Edward especially. However there is one glaring standout of miscasting. To me it was Jacob. After reading New Moon now especially, I dont see how Taylor can possibly fill those shoes. I found it interesting in the prom scene when Jacobs pops out of the woods to speak to Bella, she is sitting on a bench and he comes and SITS w/ her. I am betting that Kristen Steward and Taylor are the same height. That was CLEARLY intentional as to hide the fact that Taylor is a short *cute yes* guy, and in the book he dances w/ her, but the book also specially points to the fact he is 6 ft 2, and Taylor looks to be maybe 5 10 on a good day ...I mean, he looks sooo boyish, no matter what kind of muscle he puts on, he is still too short to play that part, I just dont see how a NewMoon movie will fly w/ him as the love interest. They should have recast.

I just saw the movie last night and I have to say that everyone was dead-on perfect :] I was pleasantly surprised by the "humans" :D Eric was so awesome ("it's LA PUSH babe, La Push" :D I thought Kristen did really good! The only part I didn't like was when James bites Bella and she was in pain... It wasn't her best performance ;) But other than that everyone fit perfectly and did a great job in my opinion :]

P.S. Ooops! Forgot the evil vampires. Rachelle- AMAZING Victoria, i think hers was the best performance of all. Cam-again great as James, Edi-super Laurent! They were PERFECT!!

I'd say they did quite well with the choices for the actors, apart from a few exceptions.

The first one is Rosalie. I thought she looked more like an Esme, I thought that someone like Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls) would have been perfect. But , yeah, I know, low budget.

The second one is Eric - when did he transform out of his geeky greased hair and his spots?

Thirdly, Jessica - shes supposed to be small with huuuuge curly hair.....!

And finally, the big one - Bella. Kristen Stewart totally disappointed me. To me, she was like a robot, and when she was next to Rob, she made him look obsessive when she just looked bored.

But other then that, i thought the actors were great. Especially Emmett, he was exactly how i imagined him, but hes a bit less muscley then hes supposed to be................but who cares? Haha XD

I love the whole cast...

My favorite was Carlisle. Oh man, look at Peter. :lol:

He was definitely a good choice.

I am glad they changed the "human friends" personally. It was for the better, now they are funny and interesting.

Nice job on the Kristen thing. I didn't think about that... It would have made him seem less stalkery and crazy if she had portrayed the intense, overtaking love as well. But either way I think they need some major improvement.

By the way, I love your avatar. God Jackson is such a dork in those pics! Ha ha :lol:
But I love him :D
Not as much as Robert or Cam though ;)

Yea seriosly!!! I especially like the part at the end were they go out to the dance floor (outside) and Edwards like
'Look, your dancing'. I was the only one who laughed at that...my friend looked at me like I was crazy.
