Yeah I guess that scene would be kind of bad for kids to watch. . .
It is sad that they'd have to cut that part out, but I can see the logic in it.
But does that mean that they're cutting everything out, like the dress shopping,
and the dinner afterwards?
Oh in case you haven't heard "Twilight" goes to the big screen Nationwide on
December 12 this year.

This entire discussion over looks is ridiculous.
There is no one who can play the Cullen family in terms of beauty. No one. They're vampires. No human will ever compare. So, if you're judging solely on looks, too bad, but you're going to be disappointed.
Looks do not reflect acting ability and acting is the only important part. There could be someone who could be Edward's twin, but if he cannot act, you're not going to be seeing Edward onscreen. And I think you all want someone who acts like Edward rather than just looks like Edward.
Frankly, I don't like how Jasper looks. The wig is doing nothing for him. But, it could have just been an addition for the pictures and in the movie he will have his hair grown out and will have it dyed to look like Jasper. In the movie, he could be the perfect Jasper, regardless of how he looks.
It is all right to feel disappointed that the actors chosen do not reflect your impression of the characters. It is not all right to criticize them simply by looks when there is no way ANY actor will please everyone or be anywhere close to how the Cullens are. Careful in how you phrase your negativism. If you don't like it, that's fine. But if you're going to criticize, criticize intelligently. Criticize the actors based on acting ability rather than just looks alone.

Am I the only one who thought Stephenie looked better in those pictures than the actors? The others appeared exhausted almost. Still, she looked like she was having the time of her life.  |

Concerning hair... (Information found on Lion_Lamb Livejournal community)
As all of ya'll have mention about Jasper's hair looking weird...well here's why. The actor that plays Jasper, Jackson Rathbone, is currently finishing another movie so the makeup artist can't really dye his hair yet. So in the pictures posted in Stephenie Meyer page his wearing a wig. But it is said that once he wraps up at the end of this month the movie his currently filming in now, they'll dye his hair blond which will look more natural and way better.... I hope this info helps ya a little about the weird hair helmet that we've all seen from the pictures.
--
People wearing wigs:
Nikki Reed
Jackson Rathbone
Ashley Greene
Ashley will be wearing the wig for the movie as you all see she has long hair compared to her character Alice. And her manager stated the she will not cut her hair.
As for Nikki and Jackson their actual hair will be dyed once shooting starts the coming week.
Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Kellan Lutz and Robert Pattinson have all dyed their hair for their characters.
Robert dyed his hair well before the photo shoot was scheduled stating that it helped him be in character and focus.

Let's clear something up about those pictures.
They are not the final shoots. They're not even official ones for the movie seeing as Summit is not posting them on its site. Those pictures were taken so that the fans could have something to dig their teeth into. Summit did not have to take amateur pictures (and you can tell they were spur of the moment: a line where the backdrop ends, cable showing in the picture) and give them to Stephenie so that the fans could be appeased. Those are not the final looks of the actors, not by a long shot.
Secondly, it doesn't matter how close to your mental image they are. What your mental image of the Cullens is probably not the same as mine or Dazzle's. No one would ever be truly happy with the actors. And, in the end, the argument about looks is a moot point because what matters is the acting. Hollywood has enough make up to cover the world, but there isn't anywhere enough make-up to mask horrid acting. And, despite how some of the actors may not be what you hoped to be, the fact is they can act. And that is all that matters. That, on screen, their tone, their words, their body language reflects the character they're portraying.

I totally understand where you are coming from ..
and yes the pictures are for the fans i personally don't like them so far but everything is going to change for the movie , i no that i aint stupid .. but your taking this a little to harshly .. if you dont like my opinion well thats chocie but that what i think .. i have a wide imagation and there are actors that do look like them to me but i understand not to everyone .. its just how i personally feel , and yes hollywood has been all about make up and not enough about acting but It seems to be changing from what i've seen . Thats how i feel ,you might not personally like it or agree but thats it .I think this disscusion about it , should stop because everyone has a strong opinion about it and its not going anywere ..

I think this disscusion about it , should stop because everyone has a strong opinion about it and its not going anywere .. hence my first post about look discussion. Everyone has incredibly strong opinions and I do not want a flame fight to start over whether the Cullen family is perfect or horrible. On another note, *teehee* I love the actor who plays Mike. I especially love that his acting career shadows Robert and Kristen's put together. He is amazing. But, nothing beats this message and the fact that he changed his MySpace layout to a Twilight one. Hey gang. Michael here.
As many of you know by now, I’ve been cast as “Mike Newton” in the upcoming film, “Twilight, which, based on the on-line response, appears to be the Hannah Montana of vampire books. The film hasn’t even been fully cast yet, and there are already over 50,000 posts on IMDB. So, for those of you die hard Twilight fans, or as I like to call you, Twi-hards, Hi. I hope I can please you with what I have to bring to the character. So far, your response to me has been very kind, and I appreciate that. Feel free to continue to comment about how you picture the character and I WILL take it into account, I promise you. The satisfaction of the Twi-hards is my first priority. At this point, the only constructive note I can find is to have a “puppy-dog” like quality. If there are any other qualities or traits that you as a Twi-hard see as essential to the character, please let me know.
...
P.S. I hope I didn’t insult anyone with the “Hannah Montana” reference. I was just referring to its cult-like popularity. I’m not making comparisons in any other way. That is all.The Hannah Montana of vampire books. well, if the forums at IMDB are anything to go by... *falls apart giggling* How sweet is this guy to reach out to us humble fans like that? |

Wow, I didn't know Ashley Greene was going to wear a wig for all of the movie. That annoys me.
I think the whole cast is decent. I LOVE Robert Pattinson; he's Aweeeeesome! And Kristen Stewart is GREAT! I've always liked her as an actress. Ashley Greene I think will do good I can't really tell but from what I've seen from pictures she seems Alice-like in a way. And eww at first Jasper looked horrible with that wig and now he looks much better but I still don't like him as a Jasper at all. Kellan is a pretty good Emmet I suppose. He has the muscles lol. Esme is, well, I can't really tell I personally think that her and Carlisle were suppose to be a bit younger, but I think they are okay. Carlisle looks better than Esme at least. I love who they picked for a Mike Newton and for a Jessica. The girl Angela is good. I was surprised to see Angela so pretty but they will probably make her more meek. As for Erik, omg, he is nothing like an Erik I would picture, but then again I haven't seen the movie so I can't really be sure if he's a horrible Erik or not. Rosalie is okay. I honestly think she could've been better. But all in all its a really good cast...

Honestly the girls playing Bella, Jessica and espically ANGELA look perfect to me.
Alice would probably be REALLY hard to find if you're looking for the perfect girl.
Nikki Reed looks pritty good though except the hair is too long!

well I dont like all of the characters, but as Alcyone has already stated looks dont really matter at this moment (in my own words) but you also have to think that when they start the process of filming the movie the characters will be put through makeup and costume, so the Cosmotologists will try their hardest to make the characters fit the discription of the characters that they are playing on the big screen. In makeup and hair dye and costume Im sure that they will all fit the part of looks of Cullens better than they do right now...
