Ok, so after we were done watching THE BEST movie of all time we went outside to gather the flock and hear each others opinions. The first of which was: ” What was wrong with Edward??” Now youre maybe thinking like I did: ” What do you mean? ” Well this was basically everybody’s opinion except Myself, Nora, alice and my two schoolmate newbies. What they meant by that was that in some places he looked wierd and in other not. feks: When he was wearing his blue duffel jacket and when he was in a tux and at the end with the grey sweater ( that i mentioned earlier ;3 ). Here I agree, EDWARD/ Robert pattiinson did look (extremely ) good in those scenes, but didn’t he look great through the whole thing?? Obviously not, to them in some places they thought: “What the HELL?” and some places they thought: ” OH LA LA! <3 ” Well let me tell you something…..I thought Edward/Robert pattinson looked ” OH LA FREAGGIN LA! <3<3<3″ through the whole movie, but i do agree he did look great in those outfits X3.
I can’t remember all of the comments but some were about Jacob ( taylor ) and that he looked extremely wierd with that hair ( some of them thought that was lautners real hair, but of course it was a wig XP ) But i do agree i thought that Jacob looked very childish and wierd with long hair. But if you have seen enough interviews with lautner, his personality fits Jacob’s to a tee. Because well, he is just so warm and smiles and laughs a lot and is very goofy. But to you who thought that Jacob looked wierd and that he didn’t fit the part at all, let me inform you about the latest news. For New Moon they are re-casting Jacob. For you taylor lautner fans, my sincere apologies. I feel so sorry for him!! He was just so pumped up for New moon because obviously Jacob plays a big part there, and you hear him repeatedly say that he is most looking forward to saying ” does my half nakedness bother you “. WAy to go SUMMIT! Nice way to break a young boys dream! No but I get why they did that. I mean, he was so young and small………and well, let’s face it Jacob kinda turns into an enormous LUMBER JACK MAN in the second book and there is NO WAY that Lautner could grow that strong and that tall in such a short period of time ( since they start filming in March 09 ). I mean even if he trained while he slept and only ate spinach and veggies for food, he would have never made it TT.TT. So our condolelces to you Taylor, may you continue aspiring as an actor.
Um….so I can’t remember all of the comments, but if you would like to add something below, anything negative or positive which you thought about the movie i will be more than happy to either contradict you or agree with you XD
But another thing on the “discussing” agenda is that as many of you may know; Catherine Hardwick is no longer with us………………….NOT IN THE SENSE THAT SHE HAS DIED! Lord NO!! She is as quick and energetic as a Duracell bunny she is just not continueing on as the director of New Moon. Instead we get Chris Weitz, the director for one of the American Pie movies, but to me is better known as the director of The Golden Compass. Which I mean face it, it isn’t that bad. I mean for those of you have read the series ( his dark materials ) I think you were happy. I know I was! It was just how imagined the world would look like and everything, so I hope that he does the same job with New Moon. But as stephenie meyer said on her page Catherine did not leave us empty handed, she left starting the foundation ( which means that they will continue filming with the same technique that they used in twilight ) Because Catherne hardwickes technique was very documentary style, very modern and vibrant. I know I have said this alot of times but i really love the colours that she used, and the that they were filmed it. Very blue and vibrant, Very green and earthy and as I said blue + pure. So I am looking forward to seeing if Chris can pull it off. He said that he wanted to stay true to the book, so that was definetley a start in the right direction ( for me XP) The reason as to why Catherine could not continue: is taht she felt like it was such a short period of time until they started filming and that she wouldn’t be able to create and direct the movie the way she wanted, and that it wouldn’t be a proper job. She wouldn’t be able to fully complete it and make it the way she wanted and visioned the movie to be. which is sad, but I understand her TT.TT We love you catherine! We will miss your passion and enthusiasm for the movie and the book! You were the drive behind twilight!!!
Another thing is that: ( i know this is old, but to those of you who don’t know ) MTV has cut out their twilight tuesday, since well, the twilight movie hype is now fading away and the New Moon hype is starting to build, so of course they changed it to New Moon Monday XP yey!
Just to mention another thing from the movie was that: ( i don’t know if you caught this but) Did you see stephenie meyer in the movie?? If you did then 30 000 000 000 points to you!!!! *clap clap* I think all of us in the theatre saw her, and i don’t know about you, but my first reaction was TO POINT AT THE ENORMOUS SCREEN! And say: STEPHENIE mEYER + i gasped XP
Another thing is that: Did you know that New Moons Budget is only 50 million?? I mean you would think that they would give some more since Twilight nearly exploded the box-office with cash in the first 20 minutes or so. What are they up to?? I think that they want to gain as much money as possible in the shortest amount of time. because if they use as little money as possible on the movie and the cash starts flowing in then they gain, right?? Well those cheap good for nothings!! New Moon has to be the best Quality ever!!!! ……..*sigh* not that I am complaining, we should just be happy that they are making one for us.
Anywho, back to the jacob thing I just want to show you who i thought should have been jacob since the very beginning. I will not tell you his name because, basically I am a greedy little soul and wish to keep him to myself. He is one of those actors who you may recognize but who isn’t big and who nobody recognizes unless you are really interested and so on. So here is a pic of him: 
I thought this picture best portrayed him as Jacob. He is now 22 years old and I think he Is incredibly handsome! + talented<3 ( he is my # 2 after rob, or they are more neck to neck really Xp )I mean look at the dude!makes you just want to drool! XP And in that movie he is also very gentlemenly. Personality wise, from what I have seen, he is very mature and smart. he has a great smile( which jacob HAS to have since he laughs a lot XP ), and enjoys long walks on the beach XP KIDDING! But the fact that he is very mature…i don’t know if that is very jacob. Jacob seems very caught up in his emotions and is sort of still a child in mind but not in size if you get what i mean, yet still mature? but i guess that that’s all a part of acting and is something he could adapt to. I don’t know, this is just my opnion. If you would like to, you could comment who YOU would like to be the NEW jacob and I will put a pic up on the next post ( of that person )and we can discusss it.
That’s all folks. See ya!!!! XD

YES! YES! YES!!!!! I AM SO PUMPED UP FOR CHRIS TO DIRECT THE FILM!! YEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!! See, I loved The Golden Compass, and to be honest with you, although I adore energetic Catherine, her style did not suit my taste 100%. The vibrant colors I do love, but there were other visual things that dissappointed me. Hurr hurr now I can’t wait!
Hm. I don’t know much of movie budgets, but if that’s little then they’re cheap. CHEAP.
OH I KNOW WHO HE IS. MWAHHAHA. (Sorry girl, I’m afraid you can’t keep him to yourself any longer) And he is seriously cute in that movie. Betty and I randomly bought it for ML’s 18th birthday last year, and she returned the gift! You see, I forgot she’s not into fantasy stuff høhø.. xD
But I agree on your choice of Jacob, I think he’ll fit!
I KNOW! BUT SHHHHHH! Our little himitsu ( secret ) ok? ABsoulutley love some parts of that movie XP it was a bit dull at some parts but it’s great!
Also, when you said you weren’t happy with the visual effects stuff….did you mean the jumping from one tree to another stuff? Well let me explain that:
On twilight they had a very little budget since obviously many of them didn’t know that it would be big. So they had to improvise, that is why they had to use a lot of wires instead of visual effects. but in some places i think it was good. Like in the trees, if the had had a bigger budget that would have been done digitally like with a greene backdrop, but since the didn’t they actually did it outside in a tree overlooking that breathtaking view in the background, which made it more raw and real to me. So it had it’s ups and downs XP
But I agree it was very non-real for me when they flew from one thing to another. Although the climbing thing wasn’t that bad XP
…Hm. I don’t know this actor guy’s name, but… Jacob is supposed to be a Native American, right? And I must say I don’t think this guy looks the part. (And to me that would be a lot worse than the HP people not bothering to give Daniel Radcliffe green lenses! Oo<)
But what movie are you talking about? You made me curious! Want to see~
Edit! I found a page that lists a couple of options:

I like no. 3, Eddie Spears. I think he looks like the Jacob I could imagine. I think he could pull off “goofy” too: http://www.powwows.com/galleries/data/500/3278eddie.JPG
…admittedly I’ve never seen him in any movies, so I don’t know what kind of actor he is, but if we’re just talking looks… he looks like a Jacob to me. :)
