as everyone knows that Twilight is being made into a movie. I wanted to ask people what they thought of the people who are playing the Cullens in the movie?

(if you haven't seen them go to this wedsite)

I cannot wait for the movie! But I hope that they don't do too bad of a hack job on it! If they ruin it... I'm going to have to track them down and tell them... 'hello'..... :D Lol... Okay. maybe more than 'hello' , if ya know what I mean.
I really cannot stand him playing Edward- he is NOT edward at all!!! And Bella.. well, shes not much better. Personally, I liked Stephanie Meyer's choices much better. :)

Having only the knowledge of what the actors for the Cullens look like, I think they made a good choice. Edward, however, is not how I expected him to look, and neither is Alice. But it was fairly simple to pick out who was who.

I saw a vid with the promo pics of the Cullen family on YouTube last night. I think they look really good. I wasn't so sure at first about who they picked for Edward, but in the pictures he looks pretty dead on :-)

I think they did pretty good casting for all the Cullen characters... none of them look like how I really pictured them in my head, but everyone sees them differently! I don't like Edward most, though. I guess he just wasn't how I pictured him to be, but I don't think there is any guy in the world that looks exactly like the true Edward. =3

I'm not sure about the girl who plays Bella either... the girl that Stephenie Meyer (the one who played Violet in the Lemony Snicket movie) was a perfect Bella in my opinion.

They should have stuck to the author's choices for Bella and Edward. But for everyone else, good!

I totally agree with you, xRileyx! Though I like to hope that somewhere out there is the perfect Edward- other wise who will I marry? Lol. Just kidding.. Though that would be awesome if he did exist and I did 'marry' him, but we won't bring my fantasies into this...

*dreams of perfect Edward*

Oh, how I wish he existed. My life would be complete then. xD

Or if I met Jacob. I wouldn't really mind that either... =3

Lol. Yes, that would be great. I like Edward better, but if Jacob really existed...I wouldn't exactly turn my back on him either! :) Lol

i think that the choices they made werent great but no one in this life can be as good looking as Edward by the way Stephenie Meyer desribed them. He just to inhumanly good looking. But they did Ok Not the best though

I still see Carlisle as a blonde Leland Orser (with long-ish hair.) Although, it would have to be a younger Leland...
