Bwah! I love you, bitca. For me, it's all about the justification when it's someone that young. Tee hee.
Still haven't seen this. I'm going to sneak into a theater in Phoenix over the holidays and not tell anyone. I read the book, and Meyer is an awful writer, so I won't be reading any more of them, but I fully admit to wanting to see Pattinson in anything, so I will see this and the sequels.
OT: What show is your avatar from, bitca?

It's not just you... But I think we may be trying to justify something to ourselves. *cough* I know. Its so wrong. I beat Bitca back over here (she is busy drooling over real estate), but I can answer that question. That is the matriarch of the Bluth Family, Lucille (one), from Arrested Development.

As much as I'm not Team Jacob, I don't really want them to cut out the possibility of romance either. Not a whole lot happens in New Moon, and the biggest thing that does is Jacob getting super hot and Bella, while not falling in love with him, certainly becoming more and more drawn to him, and being tempted to be with him. You take that out and you've got a whole lot of montages of the two of them playing with motorcycles. I think you need the romantic tension of Bella/Jacob to make the story work. She needs to feel torn and guilty for leading him on but still pulling him closer, in order for there to be anything worth watching for 2/3 of the film. And you also kind of need all that to set up the Edward/Jacob crap in Eclipse. I just don't think Lautner can pull it off. From what I've heard there are several guys being considered and Copon isn't even the top of the list, so I don't see it as Copon vs. Lautner. There are other options, and I hope the director goes with a new guy. And if he decides to, I have no doubt the guy will have to audition just as RPattz had to. One of the main reasons they need a new Jacob is so they can get someone who has chemistry with Kristen Stewart. They're not going to chance making things worse by not having her input.

What Borokat said. Uhm. Hmm. They could make it into a really good movie if they just stick to the basics. Edward leaves. Bella loses her guts. Jacob picks her up. They bond over motorcycles and how weird his soon-to-be clan is. They're both kind of sharing secrets. Edward's apparently not coming back and she can fall for Jacob. The she does the dangerous shizz that leads up to the Edward and the Volturi, or whatever they're called. They can't forget more Alice, though. Love her.

I finally saw Twilight, and while I didn't hate it, I did not exactly like it either. I will say though, that RP and KS did have some great chemistry. Mike Dexter was fabulous - and looked hot being all pale and blond, I really want that Volvo, and the Cullen house!!!!!

Oh, for Christ's sake. And I thought it was cheesy when my Starbucks was selling Twilight chocolates. Gah.

They ARE? You're going to send me some, right?
Um... Never mind. I said nothing. NOTHING.

I like the bottle, but the message they have written on it is dumb.
Plus, the perfume description makes it sound like ass.
