^^ yeah it was, better than the first one.

I really hope they go by the book, if Ben Barnes does get the part for Aro, that would mess up the character of Aro, and if i were SM, i wouldn't allow that, Bella describes Aro as old looking, Ben Barnes is to good looking to be old ;)
That's not to say that i wouldn't want Ben to be in the film, i'd like him as Demetri.

And too, Robert is the main star of the movie the hot Edward Cullen, i think if Ben is cast for Aro then it would most probably be a fan fight over them, to see which one is hotter, which is stupid, if you ask me.

Than... every fan who hates The Volturi, would be like "I love Aro, he's so hot" (which from the books pov, its not right) and for the fans who like Aro or The Volturi, would be pissed... (i would, because i get alot of Twilight fans, who say to me "The Volturi suck, I hate Aro... and i am the messed up fan, because i don't favor the Cullens... etc..."). Sorry if i was being harsh, but i know alot of people will start loving Aro if Ben Barnes plays him.

Yeah, I don't really like the idea of Ben playing Aro. Demetri, though... that has some promise! I always pictured Demetri to be good looking. I like that idea a lot!

So, did you guys hear about how Solomon's friend Koa is going out for the part of Seth? I know he's not gonna be in New Moon, but apparently he's being considered for the part anyways. I don't really like the idea. I think Seth should look more... boyish? I know that becoming a wolf makes you look older, but Seth just seems like he should have that youthful look about him. I don't know... I mean, best of luck to Koa, but he just doesn't say "Seth" to me.

But Aro isn't described as old, DumBumm. Bella sticked with the skin stuff. But she never said "He seemed to be on his sixties when he was changed.' With the right make up, I think the Volturi can have that strange appearence we imagine. I kind of picture as a gross like skin, so, even if it's Ben Barnes or not, it's creepy. So, his hotness it's just a detail.

About the girls who are going to watch the movie because Aro/Demetri/Edward is hot... it's annoying, but there is nothing that we can do. And it's not a big deal, anyway. There will be posers and fangirls no matter who they cast for Aro. Kellan is casted on 90210. It's a lost battle.

my humble opinion:
1) jane - Dakota fanning (SERIOUSLY, i can SEE that :shock: )
2) alec - lucas grabeel (coz they describe him as being both angelic and young and i think lucas pulls that off. not to mention he an dakota CUD look related, the only issue is their height's, but thats easily sorted out)
3) emily - america ferrera (i mean emily is all ''mother hen'' if u catch my drift, an america is like so sweet and homey and what-not)
4) leah - not yet sold on ANYone suggested. i need someone who looks bitter and like she'll bite ur head off. 4 me, those people suggested just dont do it. but definitely NOT vanessa hugdens. i mean, i like the girl but as leah? hell.no. VH is too bubble-gum sunshine for me. i want an actress who's all sombre and sullen.
5) heidi - anna lynne mcCord. i think that she would be PERECT 4 the part. i mean heid is basically like the volturi's version of rosalie and anna would fit in coz A) she is beatiful, as heidi is supposed to be B) appa she auditioned FOR rosalie but had conflicts with her 90210 schedule C) she and kellan lutz are dating :mrgreen: ! DUDE! kellan lutz is DATING the girl who auditioned to be his characters' wife! HOW PERFECT CAN U GET???!! lol.
D) it doesnt actually matter since she'll only be onscreen for all of 7 seconds maybe!
6) seth - tyler poseyanyone thought of stephenie meyer's original choice ofr Jacob black? i mean the guy cute and adorable and lovable! wats not to lke?
7) Aro - Ben Barnes - he is HOT! lol ok. but seriously, how old du think Aro is? i see him as bein between30-40, but thats just me. cant anyone ask stephenie?
8) if u guys rnt sold on michael copon replacing sam, how about casting him as Paul? yes? no? maybe? i mean, the guy is yummy lol, let him be.

I'm 200% on the Dakota Fanning train. I've been picturing her as Jane ever since her character was introduced in the book.

I would love to see Camilla Belle play Leah.

I'm also on board with anna lynne mccord for Heidi - but I'm not as worried about this one - it's a small role in the book. I just hope whoever does it isn't really really fake "pinky-in-the-mouth" kind of sexy. I want them to be SCARY sexy. Dangerous sexy. No coy little smile and curtsy. That might ruin it for me.

When I picture Aro, I always picture that guy who plays Mr. Malfoy in Harry Potter. Actually, the guy who plays Voldemort would be good for the Volturi as well. But that would be lame if they ripped off the Harry Potter cast, so I think they should find someone else. I'll have to look up Ben Barnes - I don't know who that is off the top of my head.

Yeah, I read that too!
I think he'd be quite good!
The har would need sorting out though!
I didn't see the Prince Caspian film! Was it any good?

xoxo
for me he's not that good... it was like he was acting too much... like there was something missing there so that's why i think he shouldn't be aro, aro simply can't be empty... i still think louis garrel would be perfect... there's something about him, check bertolucci's dreamers (although movie is a little bit weird) he plays theo there and he's not another plain pretty face... and he has accent, i've always imagened aro with accent ;)

Agree! I like dakota fanning and I think she will be a great Jane!!

Tinsel Korey doesn't look like a Leah to you?? :shock: what about this picture of her.
well it's actually her myspace background, but she looks fierce in it. okay not really, but she looks like she can play the bitter type.

Again, agree! I have always pictured Tyler as Seth. He is Seth in my mind.

I also see Aro being in that age range. I don't know, that's just how I pictured him.

Michael Copon (aka CRAPon) CAN NOT be in New Moon. I serious DISLIKE the guy. After the whole "older Jacob Black" crap he pulled...ew!!

LOL :lol: Other then #8 I'm with you on the rest.

i'm all about the wolf pack so here's my humble opinion :lol:

jacob=taylor lautner (duh)
sam=solomon trimble
embry=krys smokey desperado
paul=eddie spearshttp://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff19 ... loud-1.jpg
quil=nathaniel arcandhttp://nathaniel-arcand.iwarp.com/cgi-b ... dshot2.jpg

leah=tinsel koreyhttp://pics.livejournal.com/rogue_chere13/pic/0000rggz

i think the wolfpack should be portrayed by native americans actors or at least actors that look native american, since they are described as Quileute native americans in the book (duh!) NO CRAPON! no roles for people who call new moon "Twilight 2".

I didn't mean like in the 60's, i meant like in the 40's/50's, but im just saying, i think they should get a more wiser guy to play Aro, because Aro is meant to be Smart, not Hot.
I think that even if they got someone in the 30's, that still be okay, just as long he looks like a wise guy.
If they do cast Ben as Aro, all the fan girls are not going to even pay notice of who he is playing, there just going to see HOT Ben Barnes , which is wrong... just like i see that with Dakota, seeing her, not jane.

Well, apparently, fan girls dont even care about good acting, all they want is for somone to look hot! :evil:
