Blog 15 Character Backstories

Stephenie Meyer gave us some details behind the characters of Twilight. However, I don't think enough information was given about them. I realize that the books and everything are supposed to revolve around Bella and Edward, but more details and such about the supporting characters would have been a great addition to the books for the fans of Emmett, Rosalie, Alice, Jasper, and any other characters. Just saying.

Blog 14 To be Famous or Not to be Famous

We all know how famous all the actors from the Twilight Saga are. But, have you ever stopped to think if it would be that way if they hadn't done the movies? Yes, all of them had played a few other roles before taking on their roles in Twilight. However, they honestly weren't that well known before then. Nevertheless, who is to say that they never would have gotten as extremely famous as they did in the Twilight Saga movies?

Blog 13 Twilight Series (Books and Movies)

First off, I have to say that I did enjoy the Twilight series books when they came out. Plus, I was excited about the movies coming out too. When I went to see Twilight, I was definitely disappointed. Everything about the movie could of been way better. I think all the movies, so far, could of followed the books a lot closer than they did. Plus, most of the acting was just awful. *Cough, cough* Kristen Stewart.

Blog 12 Jacob and the Wolves

Jacob Black can be very pessimistic. Especially when it comes to Bella and Edward. He seems to see the worst in everything, not the best. That probably has to do with the wolf in him, because, you know, he's a werewolf. And we all thought he was the normal human friend of Bella. Well, he's the most normal anyway. Personally, he's my favorite. He has a funny sense of humor and can make jokes that would hurt other peoples feelings, but to people who know him realize they're just jokes. Kind of reminds me a few friends of mine.

Blog 11 Edward and vampires

Edward Cullen. The name alone makes girls swoon everywhere. I don't quite understand it, but to each his, or her, own, I guess. Edward is supposed to be this perfect, smart, and dreamy guy. Only he's a vampire. Great. What I don't understand is the fact that he sparkles in the sunlight instead of bursting into flame and turning into ash like all the other vampires do. I guess it just makes it that much harder for vampires to die in Forks, Washington. They have to be shredded to pieces and burned before they're fully dead. Weird right? Whatever happened to good old fashioned stake in the heart and holy water? Oh well.

Blog 10 Bella

Isabella Swan is a disgrace to the female population. Throughout the Twilight series, she's been absolutely useless, helpless, and in need of protection by both the vampires and werewolves. The only parts that she seems even remotely independent and strong is when she's pregnant with Renesmee and after she's turned into a vampire. Even then, she still needs help while she's pregnant, protecting her ferom herself, and protecting Renesmee. It's a wonder Bella hadn't ended up dead before this point due to all her "accidents." Of course, this is abook written by a woman who wanted a happy ending, I suppose.
