Carlisle was eh, I personally don't find Peter Facionelli (or however you spell his name) attractive. Plus he's too old, and Carlisle was always described as looking no older than 24.

But what can you do. I seriously still think they should skip New Moon and just go on to Eclipse. How interesting can they really make New Moon?

I completely agree with Rosalie. I felt like she needs to be a lot... prettier? She is pretty, but Rosalie was supposed ridiculously good looking (Zoolander anyone?)
Carlisle was casted wrong. He kinda scared me! Definitely agree that he was way too old.
I agree with the Jacob thing.
EP. I think we are pretty close to the same brain waves...

Could they skip New Moon? It explains the whole Bella/Jacob relationship and gives a whole bunch of back ground on the Volteri as well as the depth of the Bella and Edward relationship. Also gives us the entire wolf back ground. I liked the ending of the book but it was a tough one to get through. I feel like huge nerd to have written that paragraph.


P.S. I couldn't get over Esme! I saw her and thought of Ava from Grey's Anatomy.

.

Except the Volturi was explained (in depth I believe) in Twilight, so it should have been explained in the movie. The Volturi don't show up until the end of New Moon. The Bella/Jacob relationship could most definitely be combined w/ Eclipse. The Bella/Edward relationship? How do you figure? He's gone by like the second (or so) chapter, right after the birthday party. When he leaves, there is no Bella/Edward relationship, except Bella being whiny.

The only important things to take from New Moon:
--Jacob become a wolf (and Alice can't see them in her visions)
--The Volturi want Bella turned

New Moon was mainly chit chat and boring things (like Mike throwing up in the movie theater). Omit that you get probably a 30-45 minute movie. The only thing necessary to know in advance for Eclipse is that Jacob becomes a wolf. You don't need an entire movie dedicated to that. Include it into Eclipse and wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am you've got a pretty awesome movie.

There's a good reason for that... it's because she IS Ava from Grey's Anatomy.

I just finished Twilight. I liked how they finally broke away from the love story a bit to show the hunt & give it a new angle. I will begin New Moon soon.

I have to see Twilight twice before I realize that it was Ava from Grey's Anatomy. My sister pointed it out.
