The Twilight Book Series (Discussion Thread)

[MarkWaldorf]

For followers of the Twilight saga to discuss the books.

http://i43.tinypic.com/25eutr4.jpg

This seemed more appropriate to be put in here than in General Chat or Chat and Games.

I'm about to start Eclipse tonight. It always gets better reviews than New Moon from fans so I'm pretty excited!

[MrGaryy]

OMFG.
new sig. :shocked:

[MarkWaldorf]

LMAO! I noticed JUST as I was about to post it!

[Jen]

Gary put them in order. :D

[MarkWaldorf]

ikr Jen, how rude of Gary!

[Tom4784]

I read the first one in the Christmas break last year, It took me like 2 days. It's a very addictive book. I need to read the other three though.

Saying that I haven't even watched the film yet.

[MarkWaldorf]

The film's pretty good. I don't like how it messed a few things over though (in some cases bits of the book were completely changed :/) but I still love it.

New Moon's just as addictive imo. :P

[MrGaryy]

UGH. I will never forgive them for what they did to the Port Angeles scene in the movie.

And I don't have them in order cos of that white line on one side of Eclipse and one side of New Moon lol. I can not get rid of it.

[pinkmichk]

i'm about to start breaking dawn tonight i am hooked on the first 3 will def be reading again i found they are the type of book i can get lost in and lose all track of time with my fav in order of preference is eclipse twilight new moon i defy anyone not to like these books

[MarkWaldorf]

I know, it was pretty tacky. I'm hoping New Moon fixes it up a lot better.

You could just paint over it in black Gary lol!

[MrGaryy]

I tried that lol it only seemed to make it fade a little. I'll try again when I have more patience hehe.

I meant read it or seen it

[MrGaryy]

Eclipse is my second fave Mark, you'll love it. WAAYYYYYYY better than New Moon.

[pinkmichk]

eclipse is fab i am watching the film tonight with a very open mind cos all films from books never live up to the books imo which is why i read the books first before seeing the films

[Jen]

I bought twilight in hardback for my friend god knows how long ago. She has been addicted to them ever since.

I haven't read them... they don't interest me. I wish they did, I just can't get into it.

[MarkWaldorf]

ty Gary/pinkmichk, should be good. The Cullens being back = :lovedup:!

The film is good. Hope you enjoy it. I was surprised by it, but in a good way

Why don't you watch the film to try and get into it? :tongue:

[MrGaryy]

Those bastards in Blockbuster didn't have the 2 disc edition and said they wouldn't be getting it for 2 weeks so I had to order it for Amazon. Can't wait to see it again tho.

[MarkWaldorf]

My dad only came home with the one disc version :( Theres literally no features on it at all apart from commentary :/ lmao

[pinkmichk]

so is everyone a cullen fan or any jacob fans?

[MarkWaldorf]

CULLENS FTW! I'm not a huge fan of Edward personally, but the Cullen family I LOVE. They're all really interesting imo. You?

I didn't mind Jacob in New Moon, just post-Werewolf he got on my nerves.

[pinkmichk]

i'm a cullen fan through and through and there is something about edward as well but yeah i find the whole cullen clan interesting i do like alice

[MrGaryy]

Originally posted by MarkWaldorf

yeah I saw that in there and saw that was all there was, so I decided if I was gonna buy it, I'd buy the real one lol.

[MarkWaldorf]

Alice is awesome, I completely agree. She's my favourite Cullen (both in the film and the books). I was glad she had a bigger role in New Moon! :cheer:

LOL Gary! Wise decision.

[MrGaryy]

ALICE<33333 Love her. Espesh in the movie.

[MarkWaldorf]

I can't wait to see her more prominant in the New Moon film<3

Ohh speaking of: I read that they were planning on adding scenes about where the Cullens (Edward more obviously) were and what they did to fill their absence in the story. Good idea imo, especially because a film with lack of Robert probably isn't the smartest thing to release.

[MrGaryy]

yeah lol the emo 12 year old girls couldn't function other wise. Plus the time when he's gone does drag on a bit. I hope they don't make it too tacky, like not too many scenes of Edward ripping up a tree in his frustration lol.

[MarkWaldorf]

LMAO yeah, exactly! I guess it's okay Taylor is the main male focus, he does have a pretty strong female following as well. Argh same! I want some focus on the other Cullens though. :bigsmile:

[MrGaryy]

I always thought Esme was a tragically under developed character, maybe this could be a chance to see more of her.:lovedup:

[MarkWaldorf]

Yeahh! I love her maternal behaviour towards Bella<3

[MarkWaldorf]

"It's fine, Alice." He grinned. "They can't all be 911 Turbos."
She sighed. "I may have to acquire one of those legally. It was fabulous."

When I read that, I fell in love with her. :lovedup: Aside from the major 'LOL' it just cemented my love for Alice.

[MrGaryy]

ELL to that OH ELL.
She is so fierce.

[MarkWaldorf]

IKR :lovedup:

[Hugo]

I need to read New Moon :sad:

[MrGaryy]

go buy it then.

[pinkmichk]

has anyone seen breaking dawn in the shops i'm borrowing my friends but i'm gonna want to buy it but tesco and sainsburys only had the first 3

[MrGaryy]

I went to Easons to get the New Moon hardback, but they only had Breaking Dawn in HB. So I ended up paying 70 pounds for the boxset of all the books. It was worth it tho cos I was planning on buying all of them in HB anyway, plus now I have this cool box for them. and I got 10% off because I noticed a tear in the wrapping LOL.

[pinkmichk]

:shocked: £70 i havent heard of that shop i got twilight new moon and eclipse in paperback they were 2 for £7 so to make up numbers i got a jodi picoult book as well

[MarkWaldorf]

Yeah, the hardbacks are so expensive in a collection :/ I bought Eclipse in paperback for £3.49 earlier LOL

[MrGaryy]

^It's online Michelle. tho I think they have actual stores somewhere. But yeah, I was mega pissed that was the only way of getting the hardbacks. But I love them, I hate paperbacks. On and I got a set of mini-posters for each books logo free too.

[MarkWaldorf]

Same Gary! When I bought New Moon last year, I got a Breaking Dawn (?) poster with "Team Edward or Team Jacob - time to choose!" on it.

[MrGaryy]

Hehe, they're cool. And my ones have a little passage from each book on the back. I stuck them on my wall, they look fierce althogether.

[MarkWaldorf]

Aw cool! :lovedup:

Can't wait to read Eclipse! :lovedup:

[MrGaryy]

It's awesome! Seriously if you liked New Moon then you deffo should love it.

Here they are btw, the posters. [on the side of my book shelf, just above the fountain]:

[MarkWaldorf]

Haha! They go really well.

I STILL WANT YOUR ROOM ;(

[MrGaryy]

IFKR. lol thank you, it is rather fierce even if I do say so myself.

[pinkmichk]

i dont have a card to buy stuff online hmmmm will have to chat to my sis very nicely
i've just finished watching the film :lovedup: its quite possibly the first book to film that hasnt disappointed me
i agree if you new moon then you will love eclipse

[MrGaryy]

Yeah to be fair to them, they stuck to the book very well and everything looked exactly as it was described.

I guess personally the thing that made the book so magical for me was that Bella detailed everything so carefully right down to the last little detail, she didn't skip days or hours ect. I suppose partly that was to illustrate just how boring and small the town of Forks was, but obviously they couldn't translate that to a 90 minute film.

[pinkmichk]

the film is very well done be interesting to see how the do new moon
my friend told me about a online version that got leaked or something that is twilight but from edwards point of view anyone read it gonna read it think it was gonna be the 5th book (still might) but someone leaked it

[MrGaryy]

Yeah I've read about it. The first 12 chapters were leaked, not the whole thing. Then Stephenie posted them on her official site so her fans didn't feel guilty for reading them. I think it's still a work in progress, I may not ever get a full release.

[pinkmichk]

is it worth the read?

[MrGaryy]

I haven't read it yet lol, I'm hoping she'll announce an official release of the whole thing soon, and I don't want to spoil it for me. It's called Midnight Sun, if you want to have a look.

[pinkmichk]

i might have a look but like you kinda dont want to spoil it if she does release it

[MrGaryy]

Wells she's stopped writing for the time being you see, cause she said the leak of the 12 chapters has put her in a bad state of mind, that would probably end up effecting how she ended it.

[MarkWaldorf]

Yeah she was pretty angry at the leak. I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't a while before its released.

I love reading the sections on her site for the books. I find it interesting to read about how each story came about.

[pinkmichk]

i started breaking dawn last night in my insommina and am not far off being half way through i wont ruin anything for those not read but :love: wow its fab

[MrGaryy]

^Yeah, I loved readin about how Twilight was created lol.

[Hugo]

I'm so excited about starting New Moon, I'm whizzing through Twilight again though, just so its 110% clear in memory after remembering the film more so than the book. Should start New Moon tomorrow.

[MrGaryy]

^New Moon is such a drag after Twilight.

[MarkWaldorf]

eclipse<3

[MrGaryy]

itoldchuso.

oh and look, got my sig fixed :D all in order now.

[MarkWaldorf]

About time <_< lmfao

[Ninastar]

[MrGaryy]

Erm, I like Eclipse best, personally. They're all pretty great tho.

[Ninastar]

Oh yay!!! Omg that was the worst thing about new moon, It dragged on for a bit because it was so gloomy x

and also (Sorry for the like billion questions) but does eclipce involve the cullens alot more than new moon? thanks x x

[Ninastar]

and omg yay about the new book! Does anyone know when its released?? x

[MrGaryy]

Originally posted by Ninastar

not for a very long time. Well for starters she's not even writing at the minute as she was so pissed off about the leak. I would guess at maybe 2010 at the earliest. But like I said you can read the first 12 chapters on her site.

And yes, naturally Eclipse does have more Cullens, as they weren't in New Moon for like half of it LOL.

And lmao I cant belive I said that! x :blush2::blush2::blush2:

[Tom4784]

I just read the first chapter of Midnight Sun. It's very interesting from Edward's point of view and it starts in the Cafeteria. I don't really wanna read any more since I don't wanna spoil it. I'm getting New Moon tomorow so I'll be reading that.

[Ninastar]

[Ninastar]

[MarkWaldorf]

I'm just about to start Jacob's book in Breaking Dawn tonight.

[Ninastar]

Lol. I think it was the best book. Jacobs part is the worst part. x (imo anyway lol)

[MarkWaldorf]

Ohh! I was worried about that, so I texted my friend (who's a huge fan) and she said it was pretty funny! It looks too long for Jacob though D:

[BigSister]

[Tom4784]

I've been meaning to get New Moon for ages. I saw it in Asda for £3 the other day but I was in a rush to catch me bus. I'll get it soon though.

haha :tongue: the film is awesome! ooh, have you noticed how new moon looks a lot brighter than twilight? i think i prefer it. i always thought the blue-ness to twilight made it look like an indie film or something.

[MarkWaldorf]

have you seen the trailer to new moon, christina?

Nope.. please don't tell me it's only on YT :bawling:
If so.. this is torture!

[MarkWaldorf]

it's everywhere!

it had 5 million views on just myspace and mtv.com in 24 hours.

[Christina]

Ooh do you have the link?? :bouncy:

[MarkWaldorf]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-v3Xrnwu-Po&feature=player_embedded

[Christina]

Omg that clip actually worked!
That looks amazing but oh no Edward leaves Bella :shocked:
You're right about it looking much brighter btw! Thanks Mark +k will be on your way when my time limit is gone :thumbs:

[MarkWaldorf]

Thanks :hugesmile:!

New Moon is actually an amazing story! I think Jacob is really going to outshine Edward with this film, everyone's going to be changing ship! I'm trying not to spill stuff so I don't spoil it, but Edward's leaving is really made up at the end.

[pinkmichk]

my view on the new moon looking brighter is cos its generally more the wolves story rather than the vampires and they are a lot hotter than the icy cold vamps so the warm tones in the film would suit that (just my view though)
i'm such a soppy moo i cried a little first time i saw the trailer when edward leaves bella and then i watched a spoiler vid from filming in italy of the reunion between edward and bella and proper bawled my eyes out

[pinkmichk]

yeah jacob is the werewolf

[MarkWaldorf]

Yeah Christina, the guy with his top off.

That's a good view, Mich! I never really thought about the imagery like that. Are the Italy on-set photos the ones of a topless Robert kissing Kristen? If so I saw them!!

[Christina]

Ooh okay.. don't know alot about him so will be interesting for me!

[pinkmichk]

yeah thats the ones

[pinkmichk]

christina once you have read twilight you'll have to let us know which 'team' your in team edward team jacob or team switzaland

I'm undecided, I dislike how protective Edward is of Bella post NM adn can't help but feel sorry for Jake. But at the same like, I love the Cullens so much.

And im a team edward girl ^_^

[Christina]

Lol true Gaz, I didn't even know who he was. But i love Edward and the Cullens <3

[Novo]

Guess what

i love edward and the cucklons

[SiaSiaSia]

book 3 is really bad i've heard. is this true?

[MrGaryy]

yeah like its annoying how people who have just seen the film don't even know the relevance of Jacob and are all screaming for Edward and by November they'll all have shifted to Jake. I think you really should read the books before you make a judgement.

i have to disagree on that i thought new moon was worse imo

[MarkWaldorf]

the only thing i hate about eclipse is that it builds up something which isn't really that relevant. so i agree with gary. i was told by a lot of people it was better than new moon, but i thought new moon was miles better than eclipse.

[BigSister]

Ive got it for my holidays so ill tell you what i think when i get home

[MrGaryy]

Ooh, btw, guys for anyone who doesn't want to fork out for the 2-disc edition of the movie, this weeks Bliss magazine has a free dvd which features interviews with all the cast members, taken from the DVD extras.

[Christina]

I got three of the books today. I got Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse i know Twilight and New Moon are 1st and 2nd but is Eclipse 3rd or 4th?

Going to start reading it soon, i could'nt read it straight away cos my friend came over.

[MrGaryy]

yeah Eclipse is the third one! :thumbs:

[BigSister]

Yeah eclipse is third thats the one im going to start reading next

[MarkWaldorf]

YAY CHRISTINA!! :lovedup:

[pinkmichk]

you started reading yet?

[Christina]

Thanks guys and lol yep just on chapter 2, haven't got very far cos people always seem to be coming to my house. Will start properly tommorow.

[Tom4784]

I FINALLY HAVE NEW MOON AND ECLIPSE!!!!!!

I'm on chapter 3 of New Moon, so far so good. I hope Emmett and Rosalie are in it more then they let on though.

[MrGaryy]

LOL - they;re not. In fact they practically don't feature in it at all. We find out quite a bit about them, particularly Rosalie, in Eclipse though.

[Tom4784]

Awww, I was like 'NOOOO! Don't go to Africa!!'

EDIT: I loved the chapter with Carlyle.

[pinkmichk]

i started twilight again last night already up to chapter 3
i like emmett he is my second fav after edward

[Tom4784]

I think my favourite's Alice. She needed more air time in the film, I didn't like how they didn't go into the Cullen History in the film.

[pinkmichk]

i do like alice as well
i agree if you compare the book and film there is so much missed out but if the film was a standalone and forget the books i think its good
i'm hoping there is a bit more alice in new moon film

[Tom4784]

Yeah the adaptation was good apart from that, and the glitter skin lol It didn't translate well.

I hope Stephanie finishes Midnight Sun one day, I've read the first chapter but I couldn't read any more just in case she finishes it one day.

[Ninastar]

Emmett kinda reminds me of ben (30stone) lol. And lol Yeh!! I wanted more of rosalie and emmett in them. lol x

:laugh: now you have said that i agree

for twilight they didnt really have much in terms of budget to make it the dazzling bit is a tad cringe worthy new moon should be miles better since they have a really good budget for it (i mean the went all out for the porsche scenes and hired 2 matching ones for different parts of the set including changing one of thems brake pads so they were same colour as other at a ridiculous amount of money per piece)

i read all of midnight sun i really loved it but i do hope she finishes it though

[Tom4784]

I'm on Chapter 8 now, It's making me really wanna learn how to drive lol.

[MarkWaldorf]

Look out for a car line towards the end by Alice. Its epic :thumbs::laugh:

[BigSister]

I bought Breaking Dawn at the airport and read both of them. I liked Eclipse but thought it was a bit slow paced it was better than New moon though. I loved breaking Dawn though

[pinkmichk]

breaking dawn is my fav of all 4

[BigSister]

Same here:thumbs:
It was Twlight but now ive read BD thats my fave

[pinkmichk]

my order of the 4 goes
breaking dawn
twilight
eclipse
new moon

[BigSister]

hehe yeah thats my list as well. I wasnt sure about NM because i read it on a coach but now looking back its prob my least fave

[pinkmichk]

i dont like new moon as much cos not enough edward in it but i'm going to read it again after i finish twilight but saying that i am really looking forward to the new moon film in november

[Tom4784]

I'm on Chapter 12 now, I don't like the new Jacob I want him to go back to how he was.

EDIT: Judging from the trailer the film version of the Laurent scene is gonna be quite different.

[Tom4784]

I'm on Chapter 19 now! I'll have another hour or two of reading tonight and I'll have it complete I think.

[Tom4784]

And to complete my trilogy of posts, I've finished the book! I liked parts of it, generally everything before Jacob turned into a werewolf. I disliked his character after that although I liked the 'Family' Chapter. I like how Alice had a larger part and I thought the Italy chapters were good if not a bit anti-climactic. I don't think it was as good as Twilight but I'm quite interested in reading Eclipse now as the ending of New Moon built it up quite a bit.

I could have killed my friend though......

'Have you read the one where she becomes a vampire yet?'


ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGG HHGGHGHG!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH! This was before the Volturi and Vote chapters so I had no clue about the deal or anything.

[pinkmichk]

arrrrrrrrrghhhhhh your friend :nono:

Which line was it? I'm guessing it was either:

'Bella? How averse are you to Grand theft Auto?'

or

'I must aquire one of these legally, it's fabulous.'

I love Alice, she needs a spin off series.

I think I'm gonna have to pace myself with Eclipse, if it ends on that spoiler it's gonna be a pain to wait for Breaking Dawn to come.

thats one of my fav alice lines:laugh: have you got bd on order? i noticed in tesco today its gone down to £7 from £9 but moved up higher on the chart in there i need to buy my own copy seeing as i borrowed it from a friend

[Tom4784]

I've got it ordered, it's gonna be here in a few days hopefully. In the meantime I've started Eclipse and I'm on Chapter 5. I love how they've continued the car thing from New Moon. Screw everything else! Alice must get her Yellow Porche!!!

[pinkmichk]

i dont drive but i want a yellow porsche :laugh:
where is christina anyway has she fallen off the twilight wagon

[Tom4784]

I never liked Yellow cars, Inbetweeners just confirmed my dislike.

I'm on Chapter 8 now, I actually 'yay-ed' when Alice got her car :laugh: and was like 'NooOooooOoo!' when she said she was giving it back. I think the Rosalie Chapter has been one of my favourite Twilight chapters, It was written so well, I felt a lot of sympathy for her which proves the strength of the writing.

I think I'm actually obsessed with Twilight now, How demasculating.

:hugesmile:

[BigSister]

I agree with the Rosalie chapter in Eclipse I think i was a really good chapter

[pinkmichk]

i also agree about the rosalie chapter it really changed my view on her prior to that i found her a stuck up pain in the rear

[MarkWaldorf]

The Rosalie chapter is amazing yes! :love: I love it when we're shown their past and how they became vampires. You'll love Jasper's tale too.

[Tom4784]

Oh yay I was hoping we'd learn about Jasper, I didn't think he'd be in it much. I'll look foward to that one I think.

[Tom4784]

I'm upto Chapter 13 or 12 (I've just finished the Jasper Chapter). Firstly, ALICE GOT TO KEEP THE YELLOW PORCHE! :thumbs2:

I really liked Jasper's story, he was the one Cullen that really needed more developement. I like the idea of the newborn plotline, I think i've probably screwed up the plan of pacing myself with this one lol. The rate I'm going I'll have it completed by tomorow.

[pinkmichk]

:laugh: i really rushed through them all restarted twilight the other night with plans of taking it slower to pick up on anything i missed but i am flying through it again its just such a addictive story (and i still feel the same bout it even though i know how it all pans out in bd)

[pinkmichk]

i now have my own copy of bd :banana:
finished twilight and restarted new moon already up to chapter 5

[Tom4784]

I'm on chapter 20 or 21 of Eclipse. I've just read the chapter where she tries to seduce him. Quite a funny chapter.

[pinkmichk]

if anyone wouldnt mind clicking this linky its for a contest to win new moon premier tickets i would be so grateful i need that prize

Omg its one of my faves!!!
I love how much of a vain bitch she is but you still really like her lol! x

[Tom4784]

I've finished Eclipse. I really liked it, I hope they pump enough money into the last one so we get a really good set of action sequences. JACOB BECAME LIKABLE AGAIN!

I think it's tied with Twilight for the best book I've read so far. Am I the only one who thinks that it was meant to be a trilogy? There's a lot of finality in Eclipse.

[MrGaryy]

yeah BD does seem like unnecessary and random, even though it is awesome. Don't know how anyone can rate Eclipse so highly, its by far the worst. It mean it's still really good but compared to the other three.

[pinkmichk]

in part bd does seem a little rushed and not really needed doesnt stop me loving it though and it could well have been a triology rather than a 4 part but i am glad she wrote bd

on a side note i just found the twilight book cover font on a download i want it for some twilighty crafts i have planned least now i dont have to copy from the books and try make up some letters

[Tom4784]

Ack, I NEEED BREAKING DAWN!!

Hurry up Play!

[pinkmichk]

you finished eclipse? or just impatient hope it gets to you soon

[Hugo]

Why didn't you just go out and buy it?

[Tom4784]

Originally posted by pinkmichk

Yeah I finished it yesterday, hopefully BD will be here tomorow.

Originally posted by Hugo

Because it was cheaper online and I'm a lazy b*stard.

[pinkmichk]

how much was it online?

[Tom4784]

£7 odd. I'd normally just go to Asda and get it but it's the only Twilight book they haven't got. I've got one of the biggest shopping centres in the UK ten minutes away and I've only been able to find expensive hardback versions.

Typical.

[pinkmichk]

i think bd is only in hardback least thats all i have seen it in cost me £8 in tesco yesterday

[Tom4784]

Originally posted by pinkmichk

Tut, I wondered why I was having no luck. I suppose I shoulda asked someone but that's SO awkward. Ah well, I got it in the end, just gotta be patient! :whistle:

I've got an interesting question/discussion idea. If you was in Twilight and had the choice of being a Werewolf or a Vampire what would you chose?

I'd edge towards Werewolves, there's something depressing about eternal life.

[pinkmichk]

i dont know there pros to both like being warm when a wolf and the wolves do seem to 'fit' in better than the vampires but then being a vampire also appeals cos of the things like mind reading super speed plus they dont have to worry bout phasing and having to find clothes after

[BigSister]

If you go to airport its in that softback thing its a bit weird but its only available at airports

[pinkmichk]

you got bd yet?
i just read on a blog that they have confirmed eclipse date to be in cinemas is 30th june 2010

[Ninastar]

Omg I cant wait. Thats only like a year away!!!!!

[Tom4784]

It hasn't came yet :mad: but Ah well patience is a virtue.

I heard about the July date for Eclipse, they must start filming soon since it's only a year to go. Let's hope they pour lot's of money into it I want an epic battle sequence.

[pinkmichk]

they have started open castings already for leah and seth clearwater i think and filming starts in september cos rob is currently filming remember me and kristen and dakota are filming the runaways

[Simone.]

Not been on this thread before but I just have to ask.

Am I the only person who absolutely despises Breaking Dawn? lol.

[pinkmichk]

i think the general feelings of those who have read it are liked it

[Tom4784]

Originally posted by pinkmichk

Leah hasn't been cast? I'm glad. I heard Vanessa Hudgens was playing her in New Moon. I wonder if Jane's gonna have a bigger part in New Moon and Eclipse since they've got Dakota to do it, she probably isn't the cheapest of actors to hire for a small part.

[pinkmichk]

nope sure they not been cast yet there was something on one of the blogs i read that showed the open casting for them both with the need to looking like they belong in the tribe like the rest of the wolf pack
i am quite excited about janes role she is from what i gather one of only a couple of the volturi who were actually in italy for filming as some was done in america
does anyone else think the thread title should be changed to something like the twilight saga including films :laugh:

There was a film thread but it was lost to the other pages I think. I'm glad Vanessa Hudgens ain't doing it that girl can't act. I'm intrigued to see what Jane's like in the films meself.

[pinkmichk]

found it the open call casting hasnt even closed yet for leah and seth
http://twilighters.org/2009/06/12/eclipse-online-open-call-casting
so she cant be or they wouldnt be doing that
yeah i am about jane too

[MarkWaldorf]

I always picture Vanessa Hudgens as Leah for some reason, ever since she was rumoured to have been cast as her.

[Tom4784]

what leah? she's part of the tribe so wont she have that native indian pochantas look about her

[MrGaryy]

I definitely dont want the thread to be merged as a movie thread too, the books are infinitely better and also quite different. There's a New MOON thread around somewhere.

*goes to look*

I know, but that's how I imagine her for some reason. Everyone else I see as they are described apart from Edward, he's got pale/grey skin in my head.

[pinkmichk]

ahhh get ya
i actually when reading the books kinda saw edward more like how jasper is in the films but i am not complaining at rpattz

[Tom4784]

Originally posted by pinkmichk

Wasn't he nearly not cast as Edward? I heard something about Henry Cavill nearly getting the role or something, or he was strongly considered or something.

[pinkmichk]

:shocked: i have no idea but then i am kinda late on the twilight saga bandwagon (i didnt read twilight til end of feb ish)

[Tom4784]

I'm the same, I read Twilight last December and as you know the other two last week. I hate Play sometimes it's so erratic with it's deliveries, sometimes it delivers things so quickly others I'm waiting ages.

[pinkmichk]

i didnt even know there was a film til my friend who lent me the books before i brought them said that she had preordered the film so its all her fault for getting me hooked on them

[BigSister]

I never heard of Twlight until the film came out then I got Twlight the book and then i read the other three after I read twlight

[pinkmichk]

i'm on the imprint chapter in eclipse now i'm away this weekend so going to take bd with me
