I found this statement to be a tad bit disturbing. Flattering for Taylor, of course, but disturbing, nonetheless. My BF is Team Jacob only because he knows about my infatuation with Robert Pattinson :D
Lol, yeah I can be a bit disturbing at times. I'm just obsessed with Taylor Lautner

The first time I saw Taylor Lautner was signed on to play Jacob, I saw Jacob come to life. In my mind, Taylor is perfect for the role! He has that big Jacob sunny smile, is a complete cutie (dammit why couldn't he be six years older and me not married... argh... hahaha dreaming again :P), and seems to be really mature about how he's approaching the role. Movie magic can take care of the height thing, but he really doesn't look that little in the Twilight calendar. I think he'll be perfect, and I can't wait until he comes on screen in the movie so I can shout "Team Jacob" and annoy all the Edward-lovers out there :D Hehehe.

Go Taylor!

Taylor Lautner I think will make a great Jacob! He's soo cute! I pictured Jacob in my head a little differently, but that's mostly because of big wolfy Jacob. ^_^ Taylor I think can totally pull it off, and now when I reread the books I only picture Taylor as Jake. I think Taylor will be able to become super wolf in the next movie, have you seen his sixpack? *faints*. And his smile! *swoons*. I think Taylor was a perfect choice! I think the cast they put together is going to be awesome in the film! I can't wait to see it!

Well yeah, he was Sharkboy when he was younger. And usually they have older people play like, younger kids. Plus it was a kid movie anyways.

I mean, Freddie Highmore, yeah he's sixteen and he plays like ten year olds.

I think Taylor will make a great Jacob.

no no no! no! no! im so not-liking taylor lautner playing jacob black! not only does his face look like a darker version of my younger brothers' but he also does not look like someone that could look "25" in future films. taylors face looks very young (& way more pretty-boy than i imagined jacob to look like) which is good for this film, but i was thinking someone that looked more like the actor thats playing sam uley would have been more fitting for jacob's role. i never imagined jacob having taylor lautner's baby face. he's way too cocky & matured & warrior-like for that.

now i cant crush on jacob's character either :( ill feel wrong crushing on someone so young-looking at taylor.

Wow so before today, I never really took notice of who's playing Jacob Black in the movie. I got bored and went to Greetings from Twilight and watched a clip of him on the beach, and I can't lie, I'm excited to see him in action.
And he's cute!
