Seriously, I’m beginning to think that my little blog of nonsense is starting to become a fan site! I’ve been posting entry after entry of material that only I find interesting…or a number of Rob Pattinson fans would want to know..but I haven’t posted anything NEW really. I’m just amassing stuff as I go along. I haven’t slowed down on this obsession of mine, and it’s quite disturbing. I was prepared to be so fixated for a couple of days, but it’s already Tuesday as I write this, the 2nd of December, and the movie came out what–almost a week ago–and I’m still gushing about Edward cullen! He’s not even a real person!
I’m so glad to know, after watching all those interviews with Rob, that he tried to make his character a little different than the one in the book. Meaning , he didn’t try to play it EXACTLY like Edward is. I think if I saw him doing all those chivalrous stuff, like in an over the top way, I’d be completely turned off. In the book he comes off as someone who speaks in a tone of an era gone past- that would be too weird for me too. I’m sure if he was like that all the time, people would start to notice that he’s more than just a little “different”. haha!
I wonder why teenage girls think he’s the perfect man. Coz I don’t think he is. He’s incredibly flawed. He’s too insecure for somebody immortal and gorgeous and intelligent. He can’t even get close to people really, coz he always has the urge to kill them, if he’s not careful. The Cullen family is strange in the sense that, they are too human-like. They are “vegetarians” so to speak. They live on animal blood as opposed to their normal preference of human blood. They curb every “normal” urge they have in order to blend in the human world. Edward especially, is somebody with “super-human” control. He’s like the Superman of vampires. The fastest runner, the most gifted ( he can read minds)…then again he’s so righteous , so disciplined, so …moral..that he’s become the ultimate doofus in the preconceived vampire world. They’re predators for crying out loud! Edward says it best when he tells Bella that …
[From the book:]
“I’m the world’s best predator, aren’t I? Everything about me invites you in — my voice, my face, even my smell. As if I need any of that!” Unexpectedly, he was on his feet, bounding away, instantly out of sight, only to appear beneath the same tree as before, having circled the meadow in half a second.
“As if you could outrun me,” he laughed bitterly.
He reached up with one hand and, with a deafening crack, effortlessly ripped a two-foot-thick branch from the trunk of the spruce. He balanced it in that hand for a moment, and then threw it with blinding speed, shattering it against another huge tree, which shook and trembled at the blow. And he was in front of me again, standing two feet away, still as a stone.
“As if you could fight me off,” he said gently.
Man! If a guy said that to me, I’d probably be running away screaming! And he’s also a stalker, mind I remind you all! He goes into Bella’s room to WATCH HER SLEEP, he FOLLOWS her where ever she goes and other creepy stuff like that. I mean, sure, it was convenient that he was there when Bella was attacked in the first book–but if you think about it , in normal circumstances, that is WAAAAAAAAAAYYY weird!
But even though I think he is incredibly flawed..I still LOVE Edward Cullen, and by transferance, I Love Robert Pattinson too! haha! It doesn’t hurt that he’s gorgeous, and I think he’s funny, and talented. You see people, I am always attracted to people who have such intense PASSION for their craft, their art or whatever you call it! And Robert looks so intense in his role as Cullen. And in his next movies, from what I’ve seen, I think he’s put a lot of thought and feeling into it. And that to me, is a true actor. It’s not about looking pretty on screen. Sure, it has worked for a lot (?) of other guys to just look pretty..but what happens what that fades? You gotta have talent! So that’s what I admire most about people like him. The Skill, the talent, the intensity , the passion that they have. Coz I think I have so little of those traits.
I’m a “talent whore” so to speak. haha! That’s why I love intense people!
Anyhow, enough with my monologue. To make it easier for everyone who doesn’t understand, here’s the top reasons why girls all over are falling head over heels for this guy EDWARD ANTHONY MASEN CULLEN. :-p
normal guy would say: “I Love You..”
But Edward would say: “You are my life now…”
As you leave the house…
normal guy: “Bye, see you..”
Edward: “Hurry back to me..”
when you are far away…
normal guy: “I miss you..”
Edward: “It’s like you’ve taken half myself with you…”
If you die…
normal guy would find another..
Edward would kill himself because life without you is a life not worth living…
* The last one is very Romeo and Juliet-esque and it’s kinda creepy, but hey, some people get off on that! haha! But I admit, it is a romantic notion. Nothing I would suggest to anyone, but still… sigh…
