Twilight: Eclipse
I saw the movie Twilight for the first time tonight. My wife wanted to see the movie so my first Twilight movie was “Twilight: Eclipse.” The first 20 minutes of the movie left me wondering how the movie series had so many fans.
I would like to make a few observations.
# 1 Edward is white. I don’t just mean he is a white male. I mean he has to be the whitest male I have ever seen.
# 2 The movie must have been low budget because there didn’t appear to be enough money to buy Jacob a shirt.
# 3 Edward is a tad bit possessive of Bella. I think his behavior is unhealthy and he doesn’t understand the nature of a healthy relationship. Bella would probably be better off with Jacob. Bella pretty much has to become a vampire in order to end up with Edward. This will cause her to go through about a year of killing for blood. No relationship is perfect but I think this is typically tough on a relationship.
1. Edward
2. Jacob
Who would be a better match for Bella, Edward or Jacob?

You’re back!
Marriage: Castration
3 stupid morons. hehe.. i hate twilight..and edward is too white.
They’re both lame.
jacob fo sho…edward sucks balls
I don’t think any of them should be in a relationship…lol…
Edwarddddd <3
Kristen needs acting lessons…
Welcome back dan <3
Also, Xanga is deader than Michael Jackson. Because I never make it on the first page of Dan’s comments.
lol @ #2.
i don’t understand why people like twilight either. I thought the movies especially were just really, really awful.
Team Jaspar. Kill Bella.
http://cache0.bigcartel.com/product_images/21966971/april82010_022.JPG << team jesus!
hehehee.
I’m for Team Charizard.
They should all be burned to ashes.
Alice. Make it a lesbian thing.
Edward is a blood sucking vampire. And Jacob is a werewolf. How in the name of monster media can anyone expect anything but dysfunctional behavior, white skinned vampires and shirtless werewolves? Leave It to Beaver sounds more your speed.
………sh……..rug.
Hmm- necrophilia or bestiality… Let me get back to you.
I have read the first two books. It’s been a while but………From what I remember my first notion of Bella was a spoiled brat. The way she talks about the guys! And poor Jacob got the raw end of the deal. He was there to pick up the pieces when sparkle fag (that’s what my sixteen year old calls him) took off, and then when he comes back she drops him like a hot potato! How this story line could possibly disrupt marriages is WAY beyond me!
Glad you’re back! Hope you had a great vacation……Things just weren’t the same without you around!
The first thing you post after your break is on Twilight. I feel so disappointed. =P Bella should die alone, she doesn’t know what’s good for her, the nong. Why drag some male into it. God I hate Twilight.
edward. because jacob is mine. (or rather, taylor lautner, the actor who plays shirtless jacob)
Rob of the Sky.
Neither.
And your back! Now maybe there will be some good excitement around here.
Your comment about Jacob made me laugh.
I think Jacob would be better, but Bella has the chemistry for Edward. It’s hard. I’ve had situations like that before (minus the werewolf, vampire, and hot shirtless guy thing).
@Rob_of_the_Sky - Hahahahaha ;]
LOLLLLLL at your number two.
i’m team harry potter. twilight sucks.
@TheDarkCreature - Hahaha!
well, i happen to think i’d be a pretty good match for jacob, so bella can do whatever she damn well pleases…
heh. just kidding. i’m not a fan.
don’t judge me.
My exgirlfriend has made Team Alice t-shirts. x.x
@TakingxOverxMe - ha
@TheDarkCreature - Made my night.
I’m on Team Van Helsing. Just slaughter all those god-forsaken abominations.
I go to the midnight premieres just for the laughs and the experience. I’m not a Twi-hard at all. I’m just filling the time in until the next Harry Potter comes out. If you thought the movies were bad, just read the books. Edward is possessive to the point of creepy, Jacob seems desperate, and Bella is whiny. They all deserve each other in a self-destructive menage a trois.
um first dumb twihaters. second edward is better for bella and that is because i get jacob and it is a good thing the movie is low budget go no shirt jacob! and anyway vampires are supposed to be plae duh they are dead
Edward. Jacob is arrogant and has a sense of entitlement, acting like a wolf is better than a vampire or something. As for the movie, well you are not really the audience. I am and I <3 them. I also cannot believe people are laughing at the necrophilia or bestiality line that has been repeated about a billion times now. Hating Twilight must make you stupid.
I’ve never read any of the books or seen any of the movies. Every retarded white girl I know loves the storyline, so I figured it’s gotta be kinda dumb.
I’m a Jacob fan, but the 4th book explains very well the connection between Jacob and Bella.
And thinking about it since I just saw Eclipse tonight myself. They did a great job at explaining Bella’s reasoning for choosing Edward. Heck I was mad at myself for not realizing that when I read the books. It even makes sense why she was hesitant on wanting to marry Edward. That was a head boink moment. Lol
Bella clearly has odd tastes that demand she not date, you know, normal men who aren’t dead or who can’t rip her to shreds.
“The movie must have been low budget because there didn’t appear to be
enough money to buy Jacob a shirt.” <– This line is teh lulz.
First, in defense of all “twihaters”: dumb twihards. Second, I think all of these characters should DIE.
The Harry Potter 7 trailer aired during Eclipse. Best part of the whole movie.
@chayswag - I love your comment!
Was it amazing!?
I think that Bella’s sheer inner beauty renders both Jake and Edward unworthy of her, thusly she should remain celibate.
@lilxwunxnxluv - I never went to see Eclipse but I was refreshing Mugglenet every few minutes until the second the trailer aired. But yes. It was amazing. I may or may not have cried the third or fourth time I watched it. >.> Music, acting, cinematography- all completely beautiful. I cannot wait for the premiere; I’ll be there before the dressed-up fangirls disguised as a theater worker so I can get the best seat. XD
I’ll just leave this here….

Since I read the books I’m obviously Team Edward.. I know the reasoning behind many things the movies left unsaid. But, if I was an amateur Twilight fan and only watching the movies I would be, (actually I would have never watched the whole series since the first two Twilights weren’t very good. CORNY), team Jacob for obvious reasons…Or team Emmentt actually.
HAHA, neither. Team Dumbledore’s Army.
I’ve noticed that Edward gets slightly whiter with each movie. It’s rather disturbing. Almost as disturbing as all those girls who don’t realize that a real life Edward would be a creepy guy. And this coming from an original fan of the books.
Does the movie at least go into the background stories of the other Cullen family members? They’ve kinda taken that out of the first two and it’s really annoying me. I like the other characters better and their stories. They replaced my favorite actor for this movie so I’m debating whether or not I should watch Eclipse…but if the movie actually focuses on other people instead of just the whole love triangle and Victoria then I’ll go see it.
Well, I certainly appreciated the fact that the budget didn’t allow for Jacob to wear a shirt. Didn’t really hurt my feelings none. How was your vacay?
Bella Lagosi duh!
TEAM POTTER!
Don’t forget to mention how Edward is more than 100 years old and is dating an 18 year old girl…
Also, from a guy’s perspective, Jacob is way hotter. It’s not even a contest.
Screw Bella. Jacob and Edward should be together.
1. he’s supposed to be really white, and he glitters in the sun. i kind of hate him
2. jacob doesn’t wear shirts because when he phases into a werewolf they rip and carrying around clothes is effort. i kind of hate him too.
3. she’s really dumb. and she puts up with way too much from both of them. edward is a possessive jackass, who manipulates her into doing everything he wants. jacob is a self-centered egotistical jackass who doesn’t care WHAT bella wants
4. she shouldn’t be with either of them, but she has to turn either way by order of the volturi.
i love eclipse though. jasper is my favorite character. and i love all the other cullens. and the rest of the wolfpack.
I’m all for the guy who almost ran Bella over with his car. Wish he were successful
No team affiliation -.-
As a person unfamiliar with the Twilight series I had 2 main thoughts regarding this movie.
1. Edward seems creeply, obsessed with Bella.
2. What are vampires made of? They basically shattered.
I could not stop laughing at the part when Edward came out of his house and asked “what are you doing outside?” while Bella walks up the steps.
Calm yourself, she just got there.
@chayswag - What do you think of the movie being 3D? I don’t know if I like that very much. And I feel like I’ll DIE after watching Deathly Hallows part 1 because then we’ll have to wait another 6 months to see the last half of the movie!
nicely done
LOL at number 2, I thought the same thing.
Edward is a freak psychopathic stalker. And I used to like the series. Yuck.
“# 2 The movie must have been low budget because there didn’t appear to
be enough money to buy Jacob a shirt.”
I noticed that too. You’d think at some point he’d get pissed off about being cold all the time and go to Goodwill or something. I mean the movie’s set in the Pacific Northwest and the Pacific Northwest gets cold.
Get a shirt, bro.
you wife want to see the movie ha ha ha.
happy 4th of july to all fb friends and family.
have a good time, be safe and god bless America

Neither
Jacob. (not because i’m a fan, but because I know how to use common sense)
@lilxwunxnxluv - To be honest I don’t plan on seeing it in 3D. I mean some effects may be cooler but I think it would take away from the movie itself. And I’m not sure if I’ll die so much after part one than I will after part two….;-;
None of them, they all should lose the right to be in relationships!
dont yall read at all, i mean vampire books or at least u must have seen true blood somewhere sometime and know vampires in general are whiter than white cockcain, plus this love thing with Jacob is crush which he pretty much got over, now if Bella had ended up with him he would have just dumped her any way, wonder how yall define love, sacrifies doesnt mean shit these days, anyways the love triangle thing in this book or movie if u choose is a pretty weird one, which if left to my opnion i say no one should even try arguing about or getting interest on, for u know VAMPIRE AND WEREWOLF for a boyfriend! “so one will be sucking her blood while the other eat her fresh”, yum. and its way too fragile Bella they fallen for, trust me in real life da girl would have ran! freaking out. and so i went to see the movie ended up being one of the few guys if not the only dude there in the middle of silly lil girls dats what i like to call them since they seriously believing this shit, anyways one asked me expectly which team i belonged to, Edward or Jacob and for the love of me i did not know what to say, wanted to yell! um… i only wanted to see some action! like someone biting the others head off or something but i cooled it, didnt say shit but personally i like da movie, have read the book way before the movie came out, just didnt know there would be this much fuss over it, girls now wanna live fantasy. silly me and for the record Werewolfs are lava hot! vampires ice cold so guys at least have an idea what u talkin about before yall say it and writing this comment has been fun, n those dat meant this literally, if u prefer Edward it means u goin be sleeping with a dead body, so go dig of ya ex’s grave or something and begin da game, those dat chooses Jacob, well what can i say, beastiality! some people do dat these days, so find ya self a dog, make sure she or he is cute and go down town on the sucker lets see what da baby will look like when it comes, yuc
Team Alice. I wouldn’t mind seeing Bella doing so lesbian action with Alice. Ratings would go though the roof!
I though it was okay but not worth all the fuss its been getting. Just my opinion.

Info Prodigy Review
How about neither? Hate twilight..>_>
I’m not sure.
There’s the whole love thing in between.
see, your 3 points, and then pictures of the characters, all reaffirm why i think jacob is perfect.
I have an official allergy to “Twilight”. It beats me, I have no idea why or how people became so fascinated with it. Obviously, I had to watch and read in order to be able to criticize. The movie bored me out of my mind -I will not even mention the book (I actually gave up after reading the first 100 pages). I can hardly wait for this “saga” to be over. I found out that there is one more part after this one… I am scared to find out what could be next after “Twilight” is over……..
Her, Edward, Jacob, Jasper, & Alice should be in a polygamous relationship.
Ughhhh.
That pasty, weepy, sparkly high-school twit gives vampires a bad name:( Vampires use to be evil, dark and deadly children of darkness. Now they are just misunderstood shirtless J-Crew model-esque heart throbs who just want to fit in. They are the perfect bad boy ready to fulfill every immature teen girl’s fantasy about love sex and relationships. (Gag)
Someone suggested that the Twilight series was “The opiate of the Lasses”.
He’s supposed to be super-pale, but yeah, other than that I agree with you. I have no idea how it became so popular.
I put my white mouse (the one on my monitor, not a real one lol) next to Edward’s face. I think it got lost in there, so I had to shake my mouse a few times to relocate it. No joke >___>
I think Jacob would be a better match. I’m not a fan of the series any more after the craze started, but I do understand that he’s: protective (in a good way and not in the stalking way that Edward is in), warm – quite literally, caring, sweet, willing to do anything to protect the one he loves, does not kill animals, does not look like the world owes him five bajillion souls AND he’s more attractive. The last point is subjective, but seriously, Edward is the epitome of emo-wannabe-and-attention-whore-who-lacks-relationship-experience.
@bamzilicious26 - That is pure win.
And to set something straight: I am not a fan
It is more of a…. “pick the apple that is least bruised”
LOLZ@ 2
I don’t know. Which one is more likely to eat her?
Edward, Jacob and Bella would make to the top of the list for being codependent. You would not make it to the bottom of my lists for reviews.Judi
@freebirdheart - high five!
but i do wish i had jacobs washboard abs. lol.
There is such a thing as too big of a budget. And if it’s so big budget Jacob has to wear a shirt, then that’s just TOO much money.
In the movies it’s clear who she’s going to wind up with, don’t’ know about the books. I know who I’d rather look at, or at least, whose chest I’d rather look at. I think they powder the heck out of Robert Pattinson but I believe he really is very pasty. He’s extremely handsome but putting him next to that chest, er Taylor Lautner, makes him look just a bit puny.
@Starshine_Faerie - Agreed. I hear he got a lot more lines in this movie too. I have yet to see it for proof.
Edward, dogs drool.
And of course he’s white, like super pale, he is a vampire. If he was all tan people would have complained “he’s a vampire he’s supposed to be pasty”. Plus he was changed while dying from the spanish influenza, not good for the physique or skin tone.
I read these back in 2008 before the first movie came out and I was obsessed for awhile but it has gone away. Now I mostly make fun of the movies because Kristen’s acting is soooo bad. And I was always for Edward.
bella is in the closet which is why all her male relationships are really messed up.
Robert. I want Taylor.
@chayswag - I feel kind of relieved it’s almost over (wait, don’t kill me just yet!), because a lot of my money went to the Harry Potter industry, and now that the 7th movie is almost over…I feel like I can save my money again. (That is, until I save enough to go to the Harry Potter theme park…!)
Blech. Sparkly vegatarian vampires suck.
At the risk of getting so much bashing for this – if you read the fucking books, your “problems” with the films will be explained.
1. Edward is white, yes. He’s a vampire – thus he has no blood to give him colour to his skin. Is it really a surprise that he is white then?
2. Jacob doesn’t wear a shirt. His body temperature is something like, 108.9 degrees, so technically he doesn’t need to. He doesn’t nee the insulation. Also, when he morphs into a wolf, his clothes don’t just disappear. They literally rip off him – the more clothes he wears, the more clothes he ruins when he morphs. It’s just logical, okay?
3. Edward is possessive. Edward has never loved anything in his century of living as much as he loves Bella – not only is she immune to his mind reading, her scent does something to him that makes him want her even more. When they’re apart, they both physically hurt and can barely survive. So yeah, Edward’s possessive – but it’s understandable because he would barely survive if anything were to happen to her.
And my other point? It’s fictional, does there need to be reason for anything?
I am not a huge follower of the series, but Edward is supposed to be pale, since he’s a vampire… *shrug*
lol poor shirtless jacob. i think she should maybe daaaaaate… a human? wow. what a thought. dumb teenagers and there inter species mating.
HAHAH! “they can’t buy jacob a shirt” . love it.
and team jacob.. all the way.
xoxo
Edward is a stalker, plain and simple.
haha youre funny. yeah, i think vampires are supposed to be really white. which is why it confused me when there was a black vampire in the first movie. i figured he’d change once he got fangs.
and if you watch all of the movies, youll probably like the idea of edward and bella more.
but jacob seems right for her also. the whole thing requires too much thought. but stephanie meyer has it all figured out.
@mcmeister89@mancouch - lmao. beastiality or necrophilia is the real question
hahaha, I love everything you said!! If i had to choose it would be Team Jacob!
The books were decent but the two lead roles ruin the movie. I’ve never seen worst casting in my life. That and the mushy scenes are just too many. I’m going to write my own version of twilight where she ends with Jacob because THAT”S THE WAY IT”S MEANT TO BE! ._.
Aaaaaaa, I can’t even believe you’re asking this.
Jacob is the healthier option, OF COURSE. But, then again-
Ya just gotta finish the series, man.
Edward. So I can have Jacob for myself.
Oh wait. They’re both fictional.
A girl can dream…
Your tongue-in-cheek assessment of Twilight is right on, Dan.
uhhhh. just read the books? JESUS
Dan, I can’t believe you’re asking this. =(
@retardedlypretty - @laurenmaureen - @arenfro - @TheFaintingRoom - WHAT I THINK OF “TWILIGHT”: http://a-ny-zone61.xanga.com/729474143/seriously-though/
*Xanga’s Batman Out*
Stephenie Meyer should write a fourth installment in the Twilight Saga and write me in as a character. I will date Jacob, make him better; and I will kill Edward. Accidentally. On purpose.
I’m not a big fan of Twilight, but I am familiar, so let me explain:
1. Edward is a VAMPIRE. Hence the pale skin. Vampires are known for being pale.
2. Jacob is a werewolf, and tends to lose his clothing when he’s phasing back and forth between his human and lupine form. Also, there’s supposed to be a big rivalry between Edward and Jacob, so there is the macho posturing when they meet. Also, this movie was made for teenage girls, mostly…and they like that sort of thing.
3. Yes, he is possessive, as most men are….but Bella is being STALKED by a vindictive vampire bent on KILLING HER. To protect her, he has to be vigilant.
Oh, I remember why I unsubscribed to you….
I’m with you; I don’t understand why people are so crazy about this series.
http://www.twilightseries.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/screw-bella-swan.jpg
the movies are not a good representation of the books. the movies aren’t what’s popular – it’s the books. twihards are so obsessed that they’ll embrace anything – even crap films – just because they depict their favorite series. please don’t judge the books/story by the movies.
Haha in the end Edward is better for her. When you see the 4th movie you’ll understand just why Jacob felt the need to be around Bella.
Me.
Jacob is totally better than Edward. Edward is a stupidiot!
Edward! Who else!
I watched Twilight for the first time a few days ago to see what all the hype was about and I have to honestly say that I don’t see how it could have so many fans either. Maybe I should watch New Moon to fully understand the whole Jacob / Edward thing. LOL
If it were me, I would have chosen Jacob. And NO, it’s not because he’s better looking. I made that decision while I was reading the books, long before the movie was even released. Jacob sounds like he’s more…well, fun to be around. I like Edward too, but in my opinion, Jacob is the better choice. As for Bella? Pfft, she belongs with Edward. No question about it. She deserves him.
Big fan of Twilight, btw. I liked the books a lot, but you’re right, the movies aren’t that great. If you ask me, there are some storylines that are better left in the pages of a book. The only reason these movies do so well is because everyone has read the series, and so naturally, everyone has to see the movies too. Won’t lie, I go to see them. Doesn’t mean I’m going to give away my arm and leg to buy it once it comes out on DVD. No, no. Not worth it.
Neither would be a good match for her. All these actors should start working on movies with real plots. Oh, and I would appreciate it if decent composers like Alexandre Desplat wouldn’t waste their time composing for pieces of trash like Twilight.
Ahaha I totally agree with you, but at least there are only 4 in this series so we don’t get stuck with a s*** load of s***y movies like Harry Potter,Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, The Matrix,Spy Kids, Night of the Living Dead ( you got my point?) and so on. (not saying there all bad, just…yeah their all kind of s***y) But yeah!, what do we have? Like one more of this bestiality/necrophilia fad till it’s over? I think I can live with that ( unless the author makes more s*** O___O\) Well we can only hope that this crappy plot/movie/acting (bad acting on Kristen Stewart’s part, well not really acting it’s pretty much her standing there) will stop with the forth and final book. (=____=||||)
1. Umm, Edward is supposed to be white, and like white white because he’s dead and he’s that white in the book… Rob wears a lot of make up for the role.
2. Yes, Edward is possessive of Bella in the books and any sane person would see that it’s unhealthy. Hence why I hated all the books and don’t give a rat’s ass about seeing some piss poor movies because it is after all an industry… And industry on crap books and even crappier movies XD
Glad to see you’re back, Dan.
@Starshine_Faerie - ROFLMAO
I’ve said that from day one. She absolutely should be with Jacob, and Edward is scary and controlling
I hated Eclipse too. I personally don’t see how people up and get married to their teen sweetheart right out of high school. People change the most between the ages of 18-24, so conflict is very probable. People make it sometimes, but that whole part of the storyline bugged the shit out of me. Not to mention, Edward is pretty boring. Imagine spending eternity with someone like that…
I gots to vote for the white man, brother edward
The series is poorly written. I don’t even think Stephenie Meyer can decide.
@TakingxOverxMe - I second that notion.
My best friend is trying to coerce me into watching that abomination with her. After she forced me to watch the first one (for helping me move), I refuse to watch another one. I had to suffer through one of them already, shoot me in the head if I must do so again.
Lol I don
t think you can judge the series if you’ve only seen the 3rd out of 3 movies… If you read the books it makes sense
I found Edward to be a possessive prick too and Bella was a doormat. Jacob should have been with Leah.
how about no one because she doesnt deserve either of them, even if they are abusive, fictional characters.
I think for people to enjoy the movie you have to read the books!
The vamires are pale because they’re so cold or something like that lls,
Jacob doesn’t wear a shirt because the wearwolves body temperatures are extremely high! That’s why he wamed her up in that tent!
Got that off my chest lls
This is a profoundly important question. I’ll have to get back to you on this one, Dan.
people make me laugh … uh hello!!! Edward is a vampire of course hes pale! I never hear no one bitching about Dracula and Lestat being too pale … its how vampires are supposed to look! They have been pale since the beginning of time … if there are any problems it should be with the sparkling skin … not the paleness. As for Jacobs shirt if yall read the books its stupid to wear one if its gonna rip to shreds every time your about to turn to a wolf. As for the relationship … its a book people … its not like there’s real vampire, wolf, human love triangles in real life. ITS FICTION. its meant to enjoy … not take seriously.
Neither. Bella must die.
Jacob is too good for Bella. Becaue Bella is a hopelessly dependent, indecisive type of female who is terrible enough to make out with the guy whose heart she’s been stringing along-while engaged to someone else.
And I’ll shut up now. But seriously, if a girl did that in a normal relationship, or if a guy behaved the way Edward does in a normal non-vampire relationship, people would think its terrible.
I noticed that the things you pointed out were quite intentional. xD
Personally, I like Jacob, but I’m for Team Edward cuz they truly love each other.Breaking Dawn (last book/movie) unlocks much more. It’s my favorite out of this series.
neither but LOLLLLLLLLLLL AT OBSERVATION #2 AHahaha
Edward, because he’s, like, sooo timeless!
@lilxwunxnxluv - Haha, true. As for the HP themepark, my boyfriend and I are each planning on take 1k to make sure we get everything we want…XD
In the books, I hated Jacob because he was so ridiculously selfish of trying to get Bella & take her away from her already boyfriend. Knowing Taylor Lautner is a nice guy and pretty hot, vs. nasty Robert Pattinson, I’d say Jacob any day.
I guess it is b/c teenagers have fantasies of having a possessive 400 years old mysterious pedophile as boyfriends.Ja
Unhealthy relationship, but some people especially younger ones like that kind of relationship, like to be babied and some think that it is an expression of love. unhealthy relationship, vampire-human, tough love, obstacles like death.. that’s what teenagers want to watch — unconditional love. it satisfies their unrealistic expectation of relationships. i can see why they like it.. kind of like romeo and juliet except this is even crazier. Twilight just created a whole generation of drama queens.
I think Jacob is way hotter.
The movies suck… The acting sucks even more…. Its cheesy & yes. They have an unhealthy relationship. Even reading the books I thought that… Both pretty obessesed with each other & Bella is a player… I could go on..
I think she shouldn’t end up with anyone… Its weird thing…
I havent’ seen the new movie yet… I probably will at some point, maybe I’ll collect enough points from my Scene It card that I can go for free! Yay!
LOL
Also. Edward sparkles… what the hell?!
Bella ends up with Edward
They have a have vampire baby and Jacob “imprints’ ( falls in love) with this day old twoyearold
i read the books way before the movie came out… they even sucked but not AS BAD as the movies.
horrible. I am still not sure how I read them all.
thats why whenever I see people wearing TEAM JACOB shirts or talking about how bella is going to end up with him I yell out to them “ JACOB ENDS UP WITH BELLA AND EDWARDS BABY!” and continue on my way.
Some people are just pathetic.
- Oh right SPOILER ALERT lmao –
@chayswag - omg, HAVE FUN! When I do go, the first stop is Ollivanders
You should post pictures of it for us when you do go!
@guavaishere - RIIIGHT!! I thought the first book was cute (I bought it for $1 on my break at work). The second book was okay….. then I read the third and fourth on principle. By the time I read the 4th book, I seriously seriously hated the entire series and wanted to gouge at my eyes.
I vote that Edward should have tried to turn Bella.. then she dies instead. Then Jacob kills Edward to avenge Bella. Then he runs away and lives on the lamb. Yes?
Theo: This post made me laugh. I love your description of the movie, especially #2. LOL.
i have to go with sookie and eric… true blood.
yea u have to read the books. obviously jacobs better. but u really like edward in the books. hes not as possessve
@guavaishere - why read the books? Do u really have that much time on your hands?
Up until about the later half of the 3rd and 4th books, I thought Jacob too. However, in the book series, you really see Edward begin to shine around those moments and Jacob falls behind. Jacob has more of a love-at-first-site type love…. a best friend kind of love for Bella. Edward, from having read the books, I believe he has more of a “I love you for you” kind of love for Bella. He seems to genuinely want what’s best for her, even if it costs him greatly. Edward wants what’s best for them, not so much just her. He kind of learns that towards the end of the Eclipse book, if I recall correctly.
The fact that Jacob can’t control himself when he’s really angry would scare me. Look at Sam and his girl. He loves her so deeply, and yet one night, in anger, gave her those scars on her face. He hates himself for it, and they still love each other yeah… But that kind of anger scares me. And it’s something extremely hard for the werewolf clan to control — their anger. I would fear he may hurt me, even though I’d know he really wouldn’t want to. Edward, I feel, she can completely trust to do what’s right for her.
And I don’t think he’s too possessive. Then again, I have the knowledge from the books. The movies haven’t really impressed me, though they haven’t been too bad. I much prefer the books in this series. I think the movie may make him seem that way, but that’s because you don’t know what’s going on in their heads… And the fact that Edward can see Jacob’s thoughts against his will, and Jacob takes full advantage of that — I have less respect for Jacob. Edward seemed protective because he needed to be, from what I saw/read.
Anywho. I def. suggest the books… The movies, I’m still deciding on. The acting has def. improved! It irritated me how the camera rarely seemed still in that movie though. I felt like whomever was holding it to film the movie had shaky hands. Haha. It may have just been the screen, but the picture wasn’t still. Drove me nuts. :p Haha But the acting def. improved!
I love Edward because he loves Bella, despite himself. He truly wants what’s in her best interest, at no benefit to him. If Bella had’ve chosen Jacob, he would have let her. Jacob, on the other hand — not so honorable. He had a possessive kind of love.

yeah a lot of people are complaining about the books saying how the way they portray relationships is terrible.
I haven’t read them, but from what I’ve heard and reading the excerpts, it’s definitely extremely unhealthy.
Twilight is LAME!
Neither. Jacob is immature and as the story goes he becomes just as creepy as Edward.
That being said I’m addicted to this series.
In my opinion, I liked Edward alot better in the books.
In fantasy I would say Edward would be the “perfect” choice, but he is very possessive, which I dislike.
But in reality Jacob would be the best choice.
I already know how the saga ends though.
Watch the other movies then you’ll understand. ;P
I’d have no complaints if the guy I loved was as protective of me as Edward is. I’m sure a lot of people want their “personal space,” but I’m the opposite when it comes to that. As for who is a better match… I’m for Edward. <33333
bella has to turn into a vampire no matter who she wants to be with or the volturi vampires will set dakota fanning on her ass and the cullens.
jacob doesn’t wear a shirt cause when he shifts into a wolf, his clothes get ripped apart, so he just wears shorts all the time, like all the other wolves in the movie. i kept forgetting this though and found it really annoying. maybe cause most of the other wolves were normal looking and not as buff as jacob.
i think the worst part of the movie was the acting.
Bella doesn’t deserve Edward – she can have Jacob. I’ll take Edward.
also, edward and his family are loaded, so i think the choice between the two clear.
dan dan dan…the movies and the books are ridiculous, but so wonderful too. you just can’t be dissing them :]
With both of them, ofc…:lol:
But she will get married to Edward in the next movie…I have read all book from The Twilight Saga…
Edward. If you’ve read the books, you’ll understand why. Also… The movies….the acting is terrible. I’m not even gonna lie about it. I liked the books though. I haven’t seen the newest movie…but I’ve been lead to believe the acting is slightly less horrid.
Me.
But I’d rather have a go at Alice…

I think in the books as a baby-vamp the Cullens still only fed on animal blood . . . I do know how it turns out in the last book but that’s besides the point.
In the first book, Edward seemed romantic; by the end of the book, Edward seemed like a psycho. I was always a fan of Jacob, but in my imagination he was way cuter than in the movies. I might also add that Bella and Edward whined a lot less. Perhaps I am also talking out of my ass because since seeing the first movie, the thought of them making more of them made me want to vomit. Haven’t seen another one since.
Jacob is the better match. But I’m sure what the majority of us would like to end up with . . . is the end of the Twilight Saga
hahaha… I loved this post. I like Jacob better… and the shirt thing has nothing to do with my preference… lol.
Jacob by a long shot.
