What does "ZOMG" stand for?

FranklinTard · 02-20-2008, 04:38 PM

man i thought i read twilight zone movie... total kill joy....

Angelixx · 02-20-2008, 05:14 PM

ok im going to ignore the haters killing my excitement for this movie...thanks for that by the way.

anyways im really excited that we're finally getting casting announcements and pictures. I'm really thrilled about the casting, save for Rosalie and Jasper but i'm getting over it.

Rosalie will do if she can act the part, and Jasper..well i hear that animal living on his head is a wig cus they can't actually dye his hair yet since he's finishing up another movie.

and this little collage makes me feel better about all the pics too, especially jasper.

alice is perfect. carlisle is perfect (i love peter facinelli), esme is great, and emmet is awesome (i hope they give him the curly hair though). and Edward is effing gorgeous so all in all i am thrilled and can't wait for this movie.

Jason Krueger · 02-20-2008, 05:44 PM

Yay, I just finished the third book not too long ago and the cast looks great so far. Though I've only actually seen one in a movie, (Robert) they all look like they fit the part.

Teaser soon please?

Sparkle~Girl · 02-20-2008, 05:45 PM

Yeah, the Jasper actor looks great with dark hair, but I just think they need to comb the wig a bit and it should be ok, or get a better wig. Rosalie looks great in the first pic though, and Alice is freaking perfect. And well Edward...duh, just look at the eyes...

It has nothing to do with twilight zone, its basically a sort of teen romantic vampire movie, its an adaption of a book with the same name.

It's not really like Buffy since there are no Vampire Hunters, etc. It's just a romantic/action novel about a family of vampires living in Forks, Washington and a new girl moves there and one of the vampires falls in love with her.

From IMDB:

Quote:

Twilight- Based on the best-selling book series by Stephenie Meyer. Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and sent Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But what will they do when Laurent and James, the Cullens' mortal vampire enemies, come to town, looking for Bella? Based on the #1 New York Times Bestselling series by Stephenie Meyer, Twilight is a cultural phenomenon, with a fanatic fan-base that eagerly awaits this movie. Critically acclaimed director Catherine Hardwicke brings to life this modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal

Jason Krueger · 02-23-2008, 02:46 PM

Lookwise, they're teens, mindwise they're defiently up there in age.

halo7 · 02-23-2008, 02:49 PM

This looks like an "on the cheap" soap opera production of a forgettable series of young adult novels. To be honest...

yeah but buffy could kick vampire ass.

the major character in this novel can't go four seconds without nearly killing herself.

well considering these are the books that knock harry potter off the number one spot every time, i think the movie stands a decent chance if its done well.

there is a lot of great dynamics with the characters and many characters have great and interesting backgrounds. its not some little teen soap opera. the books are well thought out and quite mature. i originally didn't wanna read these books cus i figured it was just another vampire romance, but this is completely different. its not a teen mockery of the idea of vampires basically.

so if the movie stays true to the books it could be pretty good. but this is all 'if' speaking. im just hoping the author makes them stay true to it.

Tornado · 02-23-2008, 07:04 PM

Oh, is this the series you and I were talking about a while back, Angel?
