Kimmy619 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I really like Jacob now. I didnt like him in the books but after seeing him in the movie I may have been converted to Team Jacob! I know what you mean. I hated him in the books, but he came accross as quite likeable in the film. I wouldn't say that I am in Team Jacob yet though!

Kate Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I have to agree that they made him more likeable in the films; I guess to appeal to the viewers. I'm still not on his team but he seemed more caring in the film, not so persistent, desperate and just irritating in the book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Ditto, Kate! He was less irritating and desperate than in the books. I'm still so not on his team though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I was definitely Team Jacob by the end of the series as I just found Edward a bit dull and soppy (please don't throw anything at me!!) After seeing the movie I'm even more Team Jacob. It's probably down to the whole 'Taylor Lautner in the rain.......half naked!' element of the movie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Too many people are switching sides. I'm going to be the only left on Team Edward I haven't seen the movie yet but I don't think I'll change my mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 You don't have to worry about me, Stephanie! I'll be on his team with you forever . When are you going to see the film, btw? How are functioning not having seen it yet?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I'm hoping either Sunday or Monday. I was waiting for my friend but might go tomorrow and watch it because she keeps changing and I'm not sure how much longer I can wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I hope you get to go soon! I'm off for the 3rd time on Saturday . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nollaig Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 My change in heart largely came down to the complete inbility of R. Patt to act. Lautner really put a serious amount of work into this movie. Like I say, I need to re-read the books, then I'll decide which rendition I like better and therefore which side I'm on.

Peacefield Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I would have to respectfully disagree on the point of RP's acting, since I think he played him like the Edward of the books. And even though I'm on his team, I'm also definitely on Team Charlie . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nollaig Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 There is ZERO chemistry between Patt & Stewart. Zero. Then again, there was none in the book either. Lautner upped his game massively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nici Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I shall remain loyal to Team Edward when I go and see New Moon tonight. There's no turning me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nollaig Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I was dreading the Jacob parts. I was thinking, 'God I hated this book, why am I even bothering?' I despised Jacob. I had no time at ALL for that boy. Then, by the time Alice turned up in the movie I was like NO NO NO GO AWAY. WANT MORE JAKE. So we'll see. Also, Taylor has way buffed up and man is he haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola-rose Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 in eclipse defo jacob ,especialy towards the end .however in the others probably bella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheeta Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 My favourite characters are Jacob and Jasper (not to mention that Jackson Rathbone is the most handsome boy ever ). Jacob is more sincere than Edward, I think (but in the first place, when I was 14, I obviously fell in love with Edward ), and he's more interesting in my opinion. Not clinging on Bella all the time to finally say "ok I have to go now". And Jasper has the most interesting story (although I can't remember it cause it's been a long time since I read it -_-'), and I found really relevant that he was the one who couldn't control himself, and that his power was to... control emotions.

Nollaig Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Jasper was a Texan soldier recruited to aid in the training and discipline of mini-armies of newborns during the southern vampire wars during the 1860's-ish. He was good for the job because he had military training, but his power as you said, was to control emotions - which also involves feeling the emotions of everyone he killed as they died. This developed a compassion within him for human lives and he left his 'sire' I suppose you'd call her, and went with his friends Peter and Charlotte to test out the vegetarian way of life. Alice found him shortly after in Philadelphia, and they went to seek out Carlise. Another favourite character: Seth Clearwater. I love the absence of prejudice in his youthful innocence - he easily befriends Edward and is then quick to stick up for what he believes is right, irrespective of species. Being an enthusiastic young kid works in his favour too - he's sweet. A kid called Boo Boo Stewart (who is really cute) will be playing him in Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, so I'm looking forward to seeing him.

Nollaig Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 No problem - there's a load of stuff to remember over the course of the four books! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*phoenix* Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Edward is definitely my favourite character. I'm totally into him, I can't help it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfsbane Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Difficult to choose one favourite.... hmm.... Am gonna cheat and pick one from each book!! Twilight - Edward New Moon - Jacob Eclipse - Bella Breaking Dawn - Seth and am probably gonna change my mind again when read them again... x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leannex101x Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Team Edward all the way through the whole saga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elin Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I'm with you Sheeta, Jackson Rathbone is amazing. So Jasper's a clear favourite and his story is one of the most interesting ones as well. Rosalie is another favourite, I've spent hours defending her actions and thoughts and now I really feel for her. I wish she had more backflash scenes in Eclipse.

lola-rose Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Team jacob because bella never gets with him properly in the books and I always want what I can't have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I'm on New Moon atm - but I've seen all 3 movies - and from a movie stand point, I like Rosalie and Alice. from a book standpoint - as much as I've read there hasn't been much of either of them :/ so I unno - I'll have to repost later when I'm done the series. :/ but... from the movie stand point - Wolf pack vs. Vampires - I'm team Wolf - they're just so much cooler. for characters - Wolf pack / Paul & Sam | for vampires - Alice and Rosalie <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Alice is my favourite character. She is a faithful friend. I think, Bella is lucky to have such a friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
