New pictures of the Volturi[/color] I'm watching reruns of Project Runway as I'm posting this, and Nina Garcia is in my head right now going "Costumes. Holy crap, COSTUMES." Meaning, none of the clothes/make-up looks seem like stuff vampires would actually wear (if they existed, of course), but rather costumes for actors playing vampires. Dakota Fanning kind of reminds me of a really, really scary American Girl doll.

I actually like them, but I get what you are saying about them looking very costume-y.

WFT is Michael Sheen doing in this movie? He's much better than this.

The outfits are costumey but I think it works for the characters. The Volturi are supposed to be creepy and scary.
So is Dakota. I think Weitz is hoping hiring more respected actors will make the film more respectable. I think Kate Beckinsale one time mentioned their daughter is into Twilight so Michael is probably doing the film because of her.

Cameron Bright? Good casting. That kid is weird.

Dakota looks awesome. Awesome, but very freaky!

That is awful! I have seen better wigs in the 'Everything $2' shops. It does look like Jacob's wig recycled too! ;D

So, I was able to borrow this movie at the public library (no money!) and finally got to watch it. I liked it quite a bit. Of course, I loved Thirteen so I enjoyed the direction. I liked Bella's interaction with both of her parents--I think they did a very good job fleshing the parents out, and Bella's relationship with them was unexpected.
I think I'm just old, but I was more interested in the "normal" high school kids than the Vampire ones. The school newspaper is fun, y'all (I really like the photographer and I hope her heart doesn't break when her boyfriend comes out of the closet)! I wasn't impressed how Bella blew off her friends (they were really nice and welcoming considering she was a new girl), but apparently it was worse in the book? Don't think I'll read it.
That said, I thought Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart (whom I have never seen in a movie before) worked really well together. Good chemistry, and I can buy why teenaged girls would get all obsessed over them.
But, why is everyone in love with Bella? I counted at least four characters who had the hots for her. That is annoying.
I liked the actress who played the evil Vampire. She's Canadian to boot! I like BDH, but I don't like it when they switch actors midway through a series for no good reason. I can see why the rest of the cast would be upset, but to shun BDH doesn't seem like a smart move. It's not her fault, really, and if I were a young actor (unless you're Kristen or Robert), I wouldn't want to be on Ron Howard's shit list.
Anyways, they should replace that Ashley Greene person. Apparently, Vancouver is not edgy enough for her. I want a recast!
