Half-gay.

And Wiggin wins the prize for the correct answer! Also acceptable would have been "desperate to get laid" and "man-whore."

I have a friend at work whose tweener daughter is big into the series.  Thank you for my daily anti-Twilight spam email of the day with the OP in this thread.  It will go to good use.

Much better than Trollcat bombs.

Kristen Stewart is not that hot for a movie starlet, IMO. 

her face is weird.

*checks* You guys are right.  I mean, she looks like any random girl I might see on the street.  I can think of like a dozen women in my office who are much hotter.

[Eddie Teach]

Well, if the intent is that girls reading/watching the series identify themselves as Bella, casting someone who was Hollywood-pretty would have been counterproductive.

I actually kind of like her more so for being a bit different from the uber look, as more of a normal looking but still attractive woman.

Well, the book has her as plain and non-pretty. The Emosanguinarian loves her smell and the fact that he can't read her mind. No because she is HOTT like Kristen Stewart

I'll grant you that, but that doesn't excuse casting a girl who simply cannot act.  Stuttering, looking confused all the time, and occasionally launching oneself onto the male lead makes for a movie that leaves the audience just asking why and feeling vaguely dirty after leaving the theater.

He's right. Cows don't look like people, nor can they be transformed into one.

[Darth Wagtaros]

When the first movie came out I lost a golden opportunity.  My parents like horror movies and they were all set to go to this thinking it was a creepy vampire movie.  Like a dumbass I told them it was for 12 year old girls and the men who like to fantasize about being one of them. 

Should have let them go and be entertained.

they're still a source of food?

He's right. Cows don't look like people, nor can they be transformed into one.

Nor do vampires exist.  So arguing that the analogy fictional humans are to real cattle as fictional vampires are to real people cannot be countered by claiming that real humans don't look like real cattle.  The analogy doesn't compare real humans to real cattle.

I think the chick is kinda cute.
