Who are you most excited to see in the movie?
Sep 26th, 2008 | By Kallieross | Category: Featured Articles, Question of the Week
This week our question is very complex, but we think that you can handle it! We want to know who you think is the best actor for their character… We also want to know who you will have the hardest time relating to in the movie… So here goes…
Which actor are you most looking forward to seeing portray their character in the movie Twilight? Why?
Also, who are you going to have the hardest time relating to as they play your favorite character from Twilight? Why?
I’ve been listening to the show for about 3 months now and never thought I needed to comment but I really loved this question. I am excited to see how Ashley does playing Alice. I hope she can bring that bubbly ,happy, pixie Alice that we have all grown to love. I am a bit worried about the actress playing Esme though. (sorry i can’t remember her name). I have seen her in other shows playing very different characters. The one I remember the most is her acting in grey’s anatomy. She played a very frail disconnected character. I hope she can pull off the warm soft Esme. also i don’t think she looks motherly in the pictures that i’ve seen.

I just started listening to the show last week. i am trying to catch up. I read the 1st book on a sugestion and devoured all 4 in 2 weeks! i am obessed now.
I am looking foward most to the Kristen playing Bella. I think she fits exactly what i saw in my head when reading. I am also looking foward to Taylor playing Jocob. I know he dosesnt have much in the 1st book, but he is almost my favorite character in the series.
I am hate the pick for Esme! I was shocked to see her casted so, she just dosent do it for me. I cannot picture Elizabeth Reaser playing Esme.
Hey Kallie and Kassie and Lindsay! I am so glad you guys are doing a podcast on this because I have wanted to hear other opinions on the cast members, so thank you!! I have to say that there was two ways I’m judging the cast. One is there looks and if they actually look like the character described, and two, if they can really be the character and take on their persona. For me, i think the best cast member that really looks exactly like her character is Ashley Greene. She is exactly how I imagined Alice: cute, petite, a little wiry. I know that there are a ton of “Spunk Ransom” fans out there so I might make a lot of people angry when I say this, but Robert Pattinson is NOT Edward. He is definitely not the gorgeous Edward I pictured. On the other hand, he is the character I’m most looking forward to see play the role. I think he is an excellent actor and even though his looks won’t help him, I think he might be able to pull off Edward through is acting skills. I think I have the hardest time relating with Kristen Stewart. I believe she has the looks for Bella, because she can look plain when needed but also will be able to be a beautiful vampire (if they do Breaking Dawn!) but I really don’t like how she acts. I’ve seen her in other movies and I think she acts almost…dull. Her mouth barely moves when she speaks and sometimes she seems angry when she talks. I dunno…but I think Kristen won’t be able to pull off the lovable, clumsy, awkward, and modest Bella that everyone knows and loves. I love your show and can’t wait to hear your opinions! Thanks!

Hey Kallie! Hey Kassie!!!
Love your show!!! Okay, so I’m excited about a few things in the movie. I’m excited about seeing our Edward(Robert) with his shirt off. Then I’m also looking forward to the changes they made. I heard something that the movie is a little different then the book? I’m not sure, but I think it is. Please, if you read this, talk about the changes, and see if they’re true or not. I love you guys!!!! Bye!!
I’m SUPER excited to see Rob’s depiction of Edward. I think he fits the part lookswise but in an interview he said that he always tended to make Edward seem depressed. I really think he’s done some stellar performances before and I’m pretty positive he can pull this off. Edward is a complicated character. He has an emotional depth that I think will be hard to convey to the audience who hasn’t read the series. I do pesonally think that Rob getting the Midnight Sun Manuscript will help alot too. It did help me decode some of Edward’s twisted logic.
For me I think that the person I’m going to have the hardest time playing my character is Taylor. Taylor is great don’t me wrong but he isn’t really what I pictured. I am confident he can pull it off though. I really hope he does! I love him but I still love Rob more.
;p
Well, keep up the great work. I adore the podcast. Looking forward to the next one!
I’m most looking forward to Robert Pattinson because he is so cute and such a good actor.
I will have the most trouble relating Taylor Lautner as Jacob because i can’t imagine Shark Boy as a serious character.
Hey Kallie, Kassie and Lindsay!
I love your guys podcasts. it always makes me smile 🙂
Well I’m looking forward to seeing Ashley Greene place Alice. She has always been one of my favourite characters. When i first saw who as playing Alice, i thought she was perfect for the roll and just had the special look that makes you think they are the best person for that character. I think they are both alike in many ways and i think that Ashley will have not much trouble playing the wonderful character of Alice Cullen. This person is not one of my favourite characters but who i think won’t relate to there character would most DEFIANTLY be Solomon Trimble who plays Sam. For the first time i saw him i didn’t even think that was the actor playing sam, i was very disappointed about who that had chosen. I mean seriously, he is WAY to short to play one of the Werewolves and he just looks weak, he doesn’t look strong or huge like he was described in the books, he looks tiny and that just doesn’t fit with the criteria of the character Sam. So i think he will have trouble playing the roll of Sam the way we have pictured him, which is very sad since he is such a good character in the book.
I am sooooo looking forward to see Jackson cause he is sooo awsome!
I am really looking foward to seeing Rob. I know everyone is probably going to say the same thing, but I think that he takes his characters he has to play very seriously and I can’t wait to see him completely transformed into the Edward we all know and love!!
i am really excited to see Kirsten Stewart play Bella because she has to go through a lot in this book and it will be really interesting to see someone else plaing “my” Bella because I have my own picture of her in my head. I am going to have the hardest time relating to Robert Pattinson because he is playing one of my all time favorite characters and the pictures I have seen of him playing Edward he looks to hard and more dark then “my” Edward is in my head. As Edward is a very complex and deep vampire(person) Rob might have a hard time relating to him as he hasn’t been around for 100 hundred years. But don’t get me wrong I am SUPER excited to see the movie because I am deeply obsessed with the Twilight books!!!!!!!
i am looking forward to seeing cam and kellan i think they are both alot like who they play
kellan is strong and is very close to what i pictured emmett as
and i think cam will be a great james
I am soooo excited to see Rob’s proformance, it is not just because he is hawt x10 either. Edward is a very complex character and i have total faith in Rob that I know that he is going to make it the best he can. Although, I am very much looking forward to getting some eye-candy on my birthday.
I am so looking forward to seeing rob in this movie. He is an amazhingly awesommme actor. It will we wonderful to see how much he is like edward and i can’t wait for the kissing scenes becuz him and kristen belong together like foa shoa. But i am going to have a rlly hard time relatimg to hi, because the book is from bella’s pov and not his. so yessss thats what i think.
I think that im looking foraward to seeing pretty much all of the characters in the movie. Each roll is very unique and even after reading all the books I couldnt even tell you who the right person to play the rolls should be. Robert I do think makes a very good Edward cullen. After his small roll in Harry Potter im excited to see his how it will be for him to play a character in a huge book series. I do think though that kristen stewart should not have played the roll as isabella. Even though shes a good actress i just dont think she fits the part. I cant wait to see Roaslies character I’ve heard shes such a nice person in reall life and her playing a brat towards bella is just something i think i would like to see. It will be really hard to realte to Robert especially because you dont truly know what he was thinking because the books were in bellas point of view. I want to know exactly what was going through his mind.
i think the easiest character to realate to is Bella because at some point in every girls life she felt clumsy and un wanted, and every girl wants to fall in love with this amazing creature.
i think the hardest character to relate to is proberly jasper in the book hes not a cold character he likes bella and tells her shes worth it but they dont talk in the book i think if he was a warmer person in the films people would be able to relate to him on a more personal level
