One for the Twilight fans

[Martinus]

Robert Pattinson notoriously hates Twilight

Lucky guy got to be in both Twilight and Harry Potter.

He's the Hugo Weaving of our day.

The analogy is even more apt, considering his best role is one where he plays a guy fucking other guys.

"When you read the book," Says Pattinson, looking appropriately pallid even without make-up, "It's like, 'Edward Cullen was so beautiful I creamed myself'. I mean, every line is like that. He's the most ridiculous person who's so amazing at everything. I think a lot of actors tried to play that aspect. I just coudln't do that. And the more I read the script, the more I hated, the more i hated this guy, so that's how I played him, as a manic-depressive who hates himself. Plus, he's a 108-year-old virgin so he's obviously got some issues there."

"...when I read [Twilight], it seemed like I was convinced Stephenie [Meyer] was convinced she was Bella and it was like it was a book that wasn't supposed to be published. It was like reading her sexual fantasy, especially when she said it was based on a dream and it was like, 'Oh I've had this dream about this really sexy guy,' and she just writes this book about it. Some things about Edward are so specific, I was just convinced - I was like, 'This woman is mad. She's completely mad and she's in love with her own fictional creation.'

   Sounds like an entertaining guy.

Pattinson has gone up a few notches in my appreciation-meter after reading that.

Especially that it is a staple case of Misaimed Fandom. Robert Pattinson notoriously hates Twilight, finds that the books suck ass, and deliberately acts so that Edward looks like a creepy jackass on screen. The only reason he is in this movie is Kristen Stewart.

Kristen Stewart is not that hot for a movie starlet, IMO.  That girl vampire, the precognition one, is much cuter.

Sounds like a decent fellow, this Pattinson

Name/pic please?

[Jacob]

I haven't paid attention outside of the movie, but a quick internet search revealed that her name is Ashley Greene and she looks like this when she posts for Maxim:



I think it's mostly the way she jumps up, wrapping her legs around this one dude's face and breaking his neck which was kind of cool in that one scene.  That, and her character is much less annoying than the emo main chick who seems too much like a child to be interesting.

[Sophie Scholl]

Ah, yes.  I remember seeing that issue at the bar.  Definitely hot.

[jimmy olsen]

I don't understand why chicks think that dude is so hot.  He looks like someone who just got out of bed, since he is unshaven and never seems to comb his hair.  Is filthiness the new HOTT look?

The money has nothing to do with it?

He auditioned because he wanted to score with the chick. Money came in second.

So did he suffer in vain, or not?

To have read them: you can only read a certain number of books in your life. There was a study I read ages ago on this. The number is surprisingly small.

I dunno - my wife is not a voracious reader, but is a pretty regular reader.  And she enjoyed Twilight (although I don't think she thought of it as any kind of great literature).

I only read the left behind novels.
