YAy! Thanks Nena!!,

So I guess it's a very hard desision considering a lot of the actors did an amazing job but If I had to choose it would be Alice. Ashley Greene did a great job portraying Alice. I loved how she spoke in such a high pitched soprano voice...it matches exactly the description SM gives us. She walks around dancing and I love the baseball scene- the girl can point those toes!!

I think overall Rob did the best job, because a bad Edward would have killed the entire movie. He had the greatest weight to carry and gave a very believeable and emotionally nuanced performance . That said, Anna Kendrick and Billy Burke stole every scene they were in for me.

I agree with there. Reading Edward's description in the book, Robert Pattinson was perfect for the part. I wonder what SM thought of the casting?

I have to agree, Rob matched the book 100% He was the perfect Edward in my eyes....Very convincing!

Honestly, I thought they were all perfect. It's just the acting they need to work on- for most of the extra's in it.
But my favorite would have to have been Esme, Jessica, Emmett, Carlisle and Edward.
Esme because she was so welcoming and loving. To me she was absolutely perfect! The looks, the
personality, the smile- everything!
Jessica because she was exactly how I imagined Jess would be. She was all over Mike whenever he tried to
talk to Bella and i LOVED her in the cafeteria scene. She was amazing!
And the rest, (Carlisle, Edward and Emmett), because they were all so perfect in it and I really do mean it.
Carlisle looked way too young to be a father and that suited him perfectly, Edward made me squeal every time
he was in a scene, and he sure as hell did dazzle me. And last but not least, Emmett. What can I say? I should
probably cut down on this word, but PERFECT! He's sooo funny and awesome and hot and... Emmett! I loved it
when Rosalie said "Are you sure she's going to like this?" and then Emmett replies by saying "Her names Bella"
like its so obvious.

I think the best were the Cullens. They were all exactly like their characters! The 2 who I thought did best were Peter Facinelli and Ashley Greene. They WERE Carlisle and Alice.

I was so glad that Ashley portrayed my favorite character so perfectly!

Oh yeah there would never be any way I could except Edward played by a different person now...he will always be as he was in Twilight to me!
