So, just curious. Does anyone share my unhealthy obsession for the Twilight series?
I've only read Twilight so far, I'm still waiting for the rest to come in. Though, I've read Twilight 3 times so far in about a week in a half.. ;D
Just thought I'd ask. And if you haven't already read the book(s), I highly HIGHLY recommend them.
(Sorry if this thread is irrelevant, I figured since it was OCC talk and whatnot..)

I... Am in love with Twilight. =D I actually had a Twilight RP site over the summer but it failed miserably once school rolled around. I was so disappointed. This was before they announced all the casting and stuff, though, so we had Gaspard as Edward and Danielle Panabaker as Bella (I played Bella ^_^) -- Which, I kind of prefer, but I dunno, Robert is pretty and all but he doesn't to be totally cliche dazzle me. xD I'm kind of indifferent to Kristen. I LOVE JASPER THOUGH! Jasper was always one of my favorite characters and I think he is fabulous. I also really like Emmett.
[/ramble]
As for the books, the further I get into them the less I actually like Bella's character? >.> I dunno, I don't like how she treats Jacob. I'm one of those weird people who like Jacob and Edward equally. I'd probably prefer Jacob if they were real, not gonna lie.

Funny, I'm actually quite opposite. I find Robert and Kristen are PERFECT for the part. Personally, although I do LOVE Gaspard, I could never picture him playing the part of Edward. Dark hair and all that. Just..doesn't work for me, for Edward anyway. And Kristen Stewart is an amaaaazing actress, I love her. Plus, Kristen and Robert have amazing chemistry, it's crazy. I'm so freaking excited about the movie, it's unreal. Ooooh boy, and the one who plays Jasper. I plan on marrying him. Overall though, I'm pretty much thrilled about the whole cast. James isn't looking bad either, heh. I'm not sure about Esme yet, because I haven't seen her act the part, only on Gray's Anatomy, which didn't impress me much.
Yeah, you have NO idea how anxious I am to read the rest of the books. Hm, I'm not so partial to Jacob. As of now, I don't find him very interesting. Of course, I'm sure his character will develop through the other books, and I might actually like him. But as of now, meh.
Hah, wow, just realizing how much I rambled on.. Twilight does that to me. xD

See, I think since I got so used to having Gaspard as Edward it's hard for me to accept Robert, because I do love him. The only reason the GoF movie was bearable to me (it's not one of my favorite books) was because of him. I haven't seen Kristen in anything and she's definitely pretty, but I don't know enough to wholeheartedly judge.
Dude I HATED the character Esme played on Grey's. I'm totally pretending she's someone completely different so I have a chance at liking her. xD I'm horrible.
Jacob gets better as the books go on. Like, just from the first book, there's not enough to judge him on, but unless you're a total Edward Cullen lover -- and some people are and there's nothing wrong with that -- you really can't not love Jacob. He's a really good person most of the time.

Oh same here, Robert was definitely the highlight of the GoF movie for me. (See, I have this thing for Rob...) But yes, I feel the need to show you a link to the Rob and Kristen videos. After watching them (unless you already have), I think you just might fall in love with them. xD
Yeah, same here. She got on my nerves, to be honest. I'm just praying that she can play the part of Esme right, I'm willing to give her a chance I suppose..
Welll, I'm definitely a TOTAL Edward Cullen lover/obsessor. So, I'm not sure if I'll like Jacob or not. I'm not going to be totally against him yet, though. xP

I've seen some of the Rob/Kristen videos (on MTV, right?) and I definitely have nothing against them -- They're just not quite Edward and Bella in my mind yet. I'm sure I just have to get used to them the same way I got used to seeing Gaspard as Edward and, ugh, Emily Browning as Bella. I hated her as Bella. She was just... No. I'm not going there.
I actually had to stop watching Grey's because of her, Lexi Grey, and Izzie. Izzie was my favorite character and she just started driving me nuts with the whole George thing. BUT ANYWAY I'm hoping she'll do Esme justice, too, because Esme is such a sweet, sweet character and not at all like you'd imagine a vampire to be. I love her.
I was a total Edward lover but something in my brain just went 'pfffflt' (the sound of deflation, I think?) and I was like, "Well -- Jacob's just as good!" Sometimes I have those weird moments.

Wow, I just realized that I completely forgot to post the link.. Sorry, I get easily distracted. xD And yeeees, the ones on MTV! I can't stop watching them, especially the new ones. They make me squeeee. Especially the newest ones, if you haven't seen these yet. www.mtv.com/overdrive/?id=1585982&vid=226724Yeah, I'm not into Gray's as much as I used to be. I actually kind of prefer Private Practice, to be honest. Of course, I do love watching the intense episode's with the ferry crashes and things like that still. Ahha, nice. I have weird moments myself, so who knows, my brain may deflate as well...although, I don't see that happening any time soon. ;D
