What can I say about Edward Cullen.  Who isn’t holding their breath when Rob walks into the cafeteria in this movie – no seriously – I still swoon no matter how many times I’ve seen  it (and no I’m not going to admit how many times I’ve watched it okay).  We decided that we would focus one week on Rob’s portrayal of Edward Cullen rather than a week on each Twilight Saga movie.  For most, this character was their introduction to Rob, for others it was the end of a long and patient wait for Rob’s return to the big screen *raiseshand*.  Our regular followers will know that I, for one, am looking forward to the day that Rob can tick “complete” to this saga.  It has been both a blessing and a curse.  Whilst it has given Rob opportunities and opened doors that he probably only dreamed of, it has also put Rob in the spotlight and under the microscope and two years down the track it doesn’t appear to be relenting.  That’s all I’m going to say about that.  What I am going to say though is there really isn’t anyone else that could have portrayed Edward so successfully and to the 75,000 MORONS!!! that signed the stupid petition to try and stop Rob from being Edward  – I hope you get really tired waiting in line to catch a glimpse of him at the premieres (I call that sweet justice!)    I am also going to say this – and I can’t believe you will be able to screencap and remind me of it later – after pretty much writing off Catherine Hardwicke’s interpretation of this book, and now  having seen New Moon and Eclipse – I think Summit made a mistake by changing directors – there is something so surreal and dreamlike about this movie that you can’t help but be drawn in.  I was disappointed with New Moon and believe me you don’t really want to know what I thought of Eclipse.  Hahaha – but if you do let me know because I think there’s a draft review somewhere that Vertigo and Michelle found very entertaining.  Plus and this isn’t really Rob’s or anyone’s fault, he is so boyish in this film compared to the latter two –  it’s going to be really hard for me to sit in a theatre look at the man Rob has become and see him as a 17 year old boy – I cringe to think how I’m going to believe that whilst sitting through BD.  No seriously.   Anyway nuf said about that –  here’s my segueway to this clip of some of my favourite lines from our introduction to Edward Cullen  … I’m sure some of you will be thinking  “you really shouldn’t have said that” ….
I for one whole heartedly agree with everything you have just said above Maria. I love Rob as Edward. I have expressed that many times on here, but so want for this to be over..
Oh sorry, fantastic video too 🙂 xo
“A blessing and a curse” So true. Thanks for the amazing Little Ashes week. You never disappoint us.
Welcomme Eddie, hehe.
Hey Edward *waves* 😀 *raises hand high in the air* – I cannot tell you how excited I was to be able to see Rob on the big screen once more on the day of December 11 2008. Seeing his entrance to the cafeteria left me absolutely breathless & still to this day (after watching the film too too many times to count) my reaction is still exactly the same *sigh* – so beautiful.
Agree with everything you have said above Maria. How absolutely ridiculous do those 75,000 imbeciles look now who signed that petition. No one else could have ever portrayed Edward as brilliantly as Rob has – NO ONE & that is a fact! Just a shame those above people were all so blind back then & couldn’t see the brilliance that was so so obvious.
Thanks so much for this brilliant video Maria – LOVE it & am so looking forward to all the Edward goodness that is to come this week 😀
Appreciate and concur with pretty much all you said, especially about Catherine Hardwicke. Remember Me is my fav Rob movie, followed by Twilight. Thanks.
I haven’t watched your video but want to say thank you – somebody has a similar POV re: Twilight. The first movie was by far superior, thanks to CH. The mood of the movie was what made me what to see it again, then buy the DVD (unlike the other movies). I didn’t know about a petition, holy mackerel! I think we’re all glad he got the role, but I wouldn’t be surprised to learn he’s hanging out for new prospects. It’s been a long haul and there’s a couple years yet.
WHOA @ 1:36! I’ll say it: YES PLEASE!! (And yes I am yelling this, lol).
Fab vid, thanks Maria. 😀
Say it. SEX. LMAO!
I can see Maria with her finger poised above the “edit” button!!!! pmsl!!!
What a lovely job Maria! And what a treat for a foggy Sunday morning…. The perfect beginning for a day.
Cathrine did a super job there I agree still i cannot help but be excited about Bill Completing the saga. He’s sooo talented he can make Edward shine just like Cathrine did! Hopefully! A blessing and a curse: so true!
Yhank you Maria! You’re very talented as well: wondeful editing there!
Hahaha @Renee I wanted to make sure you were all paying attention! Plus I love the way he says it.
I love the way he says it too Maria 🙂
Nothing to say that hasn’t already been said. Absolutuely brilliant Maria but your vids always are!!! So exciting to think we’re spending a whole week with Edward. I cannot wait!!!
‘ I just want to try one thing…. Don’t move’
No one but Rob could pull off Edward.
yeiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!

Rob = = Edward Cullen = ♥_♥
Thanks!
“say it”
I LOVE YOU EDWARD!
