After carefully criticizing the movie verses the book I've decided 2 critical things are wrong.
1. there are about 10 different guys who would have made a sexier, more believable Edward. and he and Bella lacked the right chemistry. As Solae put it they were too busy seeming like they were going to eat eachother. It wasn't loving to me it was lustful. He's supposed to be so romantic.
2. Bella's room lacked her rocking chair. don't ask my why, but that chair added so much. It made her room more homey and it was Edwards spot. Not to mention he would hold her in it too. And don't get me and my sis started on his house and room, we're just going to drop that with a grrr.
So - any nominations for a better Edward? he needs to have darker hair, a slightly better build and be more believable that he stems from the early 1900's. (Maybe if they took some of his lipstick off.)
There were many things that were good- don't get me wrong. It's just never as good as the book.
My first nomination:
1. Tom Welling - Smallville's Clark Kent (now he's hot)
