    When i read a story, I imagine the characters in a very unique aspect. I honestly hate watching movies based off of books because they ruin my mental image for each character. Hence why i never watched any of the Divergent movies. HOWEVER, I was quite surprised when I saw the Twilight movies. I remember debating whether or not I should start watching them cuz the books had a huge impact on me. But Hot Damn! Each character was portrayed perfectly, and now every time I think of Edward and Bella, I think of Robert and Kristen. There could not have been any other actors who could have pulled off the roles, and It was absolutely worth watching each movie👌✨

      Shows how dumb the book fans were and how no one should listen to fans about casting actors. They wanted a French man named Gaspard Ulliel who cannot speak English like an American, he always has a French accent. How could that possibly be Edward Cullen, born and raised in Chicago? He's also only 5'10, Rob is 6;1" He's also 2 years older than Rob. Book fans knew nothing.
      Failing Gaspard, they wanted Hayden Christensen, who can't act and who is 5 years older than Rob. But they wanted him to play a 17 year old vampire. Rob is a stellar actor and that stood out at the audition.

    Rob had self-taped in London but he never sent it in. That's partially why they wanted him to fly to LA and audition in person. Summit had been after him for 6 months, but he didn't like the script. Then he got a $25,000 tax bill in the UK for his HP4 salary, but he hadn't put any money aside and he was flat broke.
    So he finally decided he would take whatever was offered and his agent set him up to meet with the director and the rest is history. He aced the audition and signed on to do what he thought was a little indie horror movie that no one would see. Joke was on him, lol

      @@mardybum4562 I was around at the time, I've been a fan since Rob was in Harry Potter 4. He talked a lot of sh!t in 2008 when he was promoting Twilight, but partly because he was too embarrassed to admit he was broke and in debt. He did admit he was too poor to pay for a hotel room, so he slept on his agent's sofa the night before he auditioned for Twilight.
      Then in 2018 for the 10th anniversary of Twilight, he finally admitted he wasn't only broke, he had that tax bill and he would have taken anything that was offered. It just so happened that Twilight was the only thing he got offered.

      @@mardybum4562 I heard that Kristen's mother is the one who told her to do Twilight. KS had read the script and didn't think much of it, but her mother understood that it was a leading role, along with Edward, and she wasn't getting offered anything but small supporting roles at the time, like Into the Wild. So instead of being on screen for 10 minutes, she would be in the front the whole time.
      Her mom saw it as an opportunity for her, even if they thought it was another little horror indie. No one had any idea that Rob would captivate women of all ages and make it into the phenomenon it became.

      @@a.madison9625 no, actually Emile Hirsch her castmate in Into the Wild recommended Kristen to the Catherine Hardwicke (who went to into the wild casting so as to offer her the role and see Kristen and the guy who plays Jasper audition together) and when she saw the script Kristen said that’s so superficial there’s no way I’m doing that but Emile and her friend Suzie probably convinced her to get the role. Besides she was the main character in so many more movies before twilight lol. Speak was all about her and, adventureland, the messengers etc. She even played her first role with Jodie Foster at the age of 10 and it was so more than 10 minutes. Also she would never accept the role if she had known twilight could get this popular she was okay with acting in indie movies.

    Even though I LOVE the books more thank I love the movies (which I love a lot, anyway) and I do think too, that Robert isn't the perfect Edward Cullen (at least as I picture him to be...) I'm so glad that he and Kristen were chosen to be Bella and Edward. They're chemestry in the movies was just SO perfect. They're perfect for each other. That's what makes the movies being watched, for me. You can FEEL they truly are in love. Just like Edward and Bella...

      Rob is a great actor. He seemed truly in love with Reese Witherspoon in Water For Elephants and with Emilie deRaven in Remember Me. He would have chemistry with a door knob. Actors with his kind of charisma make everyone in a scene with them look good.

      @@a.madison9625 That's actually not what I meant :) Robert is indeed a wonderful actor. But neither with Reese Witherspoon in WFE nor with Emilie deRaven in Remember Me he gave me THAT feeling. With Kristen in Twilight, it was something absolutely magical... you could feel that. At least, I could. And I think that's not something you can do only if you're a great actor... that's something more. That's what gets me emotional, when watching the Twilight Saga. It's like seeing and feeling their own real love and relationship growing through all those years they were together... At least, this is just how I feel. :)

      @@Iris11music Well Iris, Kristen was still sleeping with Michael Angarano in her own parents home all through the making of Twilight and New Moon. So if you saw something between them in the first two films, it was ACTING. They didn't begin to hook up until New Moon was done filming. So you have an active imagination.
      The rest of us saw sparks between Rob and other actresses, especially Christina Ricci in Bel Ami and Mia Wasikowska in Maps to the Stars. Their one kiss in Maps was hotter than all 5 Twilight movies combined. He really has chemistry with Mia, and his elevator kiss in the Dior ad with Camille Rowe is also way hotter than anything we saw with KStew.
      You're just a Twilight fan, you see what you want to see. People who aren't invested are better at being objective. Also, they weren't even together for all of the last 3 movies. They were off and on the whole time. Rob would go off for 2 months to make a film and not even see her. It was never a fairy tale romance in real life.
      They fought on the set all the time, in front of cast and crew. Some of them have talked about it. It was mostly her having a temper tantrum and Rob just standing there letting her rant. it got so bad one time on Eclipse though that the director had to shut down the set for the rest of the day after lunch.
      She had a screaming fit and for once, Rob told her off. She went totally ballistic and David Slade dismissed the cast and crew and told everyone to go home for the rest of the day. She cost the production $300,000 that day.
      So their relationship was no romantic picnic. She was moody and hard to get along with. When you think about it, she was hiding her attraction to women and to other men, so no wonder she was difficult to be around. Rob deserves a medal.

Welcome that. But, nothing you say could make me change the way I feel, and think about it. Unless you personally know Robert or Kristen as close friend of yours, or unless you were as well on the set with them in the Twilight days, your opinion about them has just as much revelance as mine has. You don't hold the only real truth, you know? :) But I'm not here trying to impose mine over someone I don't even know.
      And, nothing could make me change my mind about the way I see love, anyway. And I truly wish to you, that someday you'll be able to see it (again, pheraps..?) as something magical and fairytale-like.

      @@Iris11music Imma try to keep this short, Iris. You're entitled to your own opinion, you're not entitled to your own facts. It's a fact that they weren't dating when they filmed the first two movies, so they were in fact, ACTING. You can make up bullsh!t in your own mind, but you don't get to pretend like it's reality, because it isn't.
      They weren't a couple, so what you saw was acting skills, not real life. Your blather makes you sound like someone who believe the earth is flat. Plus what they had is called "chemistry," which is based on sexual attraction, not love. Her feelings have always been too shallow to qualify as love. Women in love don't fvck their married directors behind their boyfriend's back. That's not love.
      She used Rob, rode his coattails as long as she could, got bored with him and fvcked around behind his back. She has never loved anyone but herself, don't kid yourself.
      Did you miss her interview in ELLE two months ago where she vountered that she had her first lesbian sex in 2011? Yea, that's when you thought she was Rob's faithful girlfriend. Haha, fooled again.
      They were never a perfect couple, it was never an epic romance and you need to learn the difference between reality and your overactive imagination.
      As for my persistence, I'm sick and tired of people like you, who live in their own dream world and pretend like facts and reality don't exist. You are why Trump got elected and why domestic terrorists stormed the Capitol. If you want to believe in your own imagination instead of reality, we're all doomed.

    People should ease up Edward is described as literally perfect in the book and in real life no one is perfect so they had to do the best they could. I think he was the perfect fit. He has a unique strong face. No matter who they picked someone would of thought they were ugly 🤷🏽‍♀️
