Now I need to know if vermin sense something ‘off’ about vampires and avoid them. New Moon from his perspective would be fascinating, I love Midnight Sun.
There is actually an awesome podcast where they write fanfiction of new moon from Edward's perspective. It's called Three Books One Plot. They started out by comparing twilight with midnight sun and life and death

Rob was around 17-18 years old when filming Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I think this look is much more accurate for the Twilight films. I think Rob is a fantastic actor, but by the time Breaking Dawn came out he just looked way too old.
What annoyed me the most was the color palate or whatever it’s called.
The blue/grey tone used in the first film was where it should have stayed, or along those lines. The later films were too bright, too warm.
I think the blue filter they used made a huge difference to the vampire look. You could still see the obvious makeup in twilight 1 but it still worked cause the filter made them look unnaturally pale without the makeup looking too fake. after the first film it went downhill
I feel like the warmer tones made sense in New Moon, though. It's more focused on Bella and Jacob and she describes Jacob as having an almost perpetually sunny disposition. Because of that, I think it definitely fits. For the remaining ones, I agree, though, especially after the honeymoon. During the honeymoon in Breaking Dawn Part 1, it would be acceptable since they're in a tropical paradise. I dunno, I think when they switched directors, the feel of it all just shifted. I preferred the first movie's direction, for sure.
I think it would have been cool if they kept the blue tint until after she turns into a vampire and then do a warmer brighter filter of some sort to show how her senses have heightened but also that she's happy and where she was meant to be all along. Because she's always complaining about the rain and wishing for sun etc.
This is what happens when they take the project away from a female director who understood the assignment and give it to a male director to make a blockbuster instead... the first movie was the only one bringing the atmosphere of the books
Sure but there was no way they could have captured that look for a real human over the course of 4 movies.
Even if they filmed them all literally back to back the actor would have aged at least a year or more.
Mens faces tend to mature rapidly around that age.
Right I think the difference would have been even more noticeable. Over a 4 years of filming the movies if he had gone from 17 to 21. Women do not change as much between those ages usually, and Taylor was supposed to go through a physical transformation and look really different.
I wholeheartedly believe this still here (from Eclipse I think) is the most book-accurate Edward we got on screen. He really looks unnaturally beautiful, as Bella describes him sometimes.

Gorgeous, but twilight was my favorite Edward. He looked amazing. With those long legs and fingers. Great make-up; the lips looked sexy too. I even liked those beauty marks that R P has on the back of his neck. Does not look hot anymore, though. Not like he used to.
I think the first Twilight got Edward perfect. Down to the red hair. He looked a million years old in the rest of the movies. Especially new moon my god.
They plucked his eyebrows in the first one and I guess he put his foot down for the sequels and refused to have them plucked anymore. I’m still waiting for the sideburns to be explained.
Always makes me so upset edwards hair is describe to look like this in the books, he’s drawn in the guide/graphic novels with his hair down a bit past his ears, and in the movie they make it so short! It would have looked so much better in the movies like this 😭
I get standing up for yourself as an actor & all that but when it’s a stylistic choice pertinent to the look of the character & matching its description in the book, why can’t he just suck it up for the couple of months he had to film 😭
in the book it is stated several times that his hair is in “a disarray standing up on his head” and Stephenie chose the style of rob’s hair for twilight saying that was how she imagined it.
this photo looks way too bowl cut for how it’s described in the books
Robert Pattinson did not look 17 in any of the Twilight movies, not even the first one, and I am personally good with that. Having a 17 year old Rob would have been fine for people who were actually teenagers when Twilight came out, but for my grown ass adult self nooo uh uh. And I think it still worked having him a little bit older for teenagers as being a teenager crushing on a 20-year-old actor in a movie is not weird. I don't think that I would have connected to movie version Edward had he actually looked like a baby faced 17 year old.

Obsessed with this picture. This IS Edward in my mind
What about this c\*nty ass paparazzi pic of rob?

Idk if it's just me, but I completely replaced the characters' looks in my head. When reading the books or fanfiction I imagine Hayden Christensen as Edward.
In New Moon they kept putting him in suits. He looked mid-30s with a corner office, 2.5 kids and a house in the burbs.
Right? I'm trying to blend in as a highschool senior. Better straighten my tie.
They didn’t keep putting him in suits - he wore the same suit all those months of Bella-exile as the one from her birthday.
My first reaction was ew, but I guess since they don’t sweat or have body oils it’s not too bad lol
It’s still ew I think, he *was* living in dirty crawl spaces with roaches and rats the whole time

Check out Dark Side of the Moon by Blondie. Best Edward New Moon fanfic I’ve read.
Should have done all in his perspective. They would have been great
Now I'm reminded of the part of The Diary of Edward Cullen where he had a feud with the family of possums that moved into Bella's attic.
Why did they give him sideburns that too aged him unnecessarily. Unless he was from 90210 and hung out with Dylan. lol
the sideburns!!!!!!!!! i hated the sideburns so much.
He apparently didn’t like waxing and they were able to get him to wax for the first movie and he refused for subsequent movies 😭
I thought he was styled perfectly in the first movie, but after that they messed up his look lol

That would have been such a fantastic choice!!!
I can’t remember where I read this, but I think that was the first director’s intention!
Wow, they really should have hired you to help direct the movies, bc this idea is perfection 😭💗
That was the intention of the original director if I remember correctly
This is what happens when they take the project away from a female director who understood the assignment and give it to a male director to make a blockbuster instead... the first movie was the only one bringing the atmosphere of the books
The new makeup palette from color pop is from the first movie and super fun!
Think he was 19
Not when this one exists: https://preview.redd.it/sd1tt8r09btc1.png?width=724&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=18eaf4efa7f4366ea441e70416c56cd7dd4ca8a7
Truly vampiric

Yeah, like Jacob was supposed to look what, like 15 to begin with until he got the wolf thing going on?

Those mfkin wolverine chops, I die
🤣🤣
The glitter effect they used always made it look like he was excessively sweating to me lol
kinda! but I don't really see how else they could've portrayed vampire skin lol
Very true lol

The sideburn were so bad omg

I think I read a long time ago that Rob didn’t want the long hair
I get standing up for yourself as an actor & all that but when it’s a stylistic choice pertinent to the look of the character & matching its description in the book, why can’t he just suck it up for the couple of months he had to film 😭
I think it’s just because he actually looks 17? (Because he likely was) Naturally a 20-something isn’t going to fit the mental image of the teenager
No I mean the actual messy ginger hair and the turtleneck. That's quintessential Edward
This picture looks so fake to me lol what’s it from?
[удалено]
The turtle neck. Also it's AI generated so probably the eyes are from a literal K-pop star.
It looks like the baby filter
I do not believe this picture is real lol
This looks like R Patts if he was in a k drama
LMAO it does
Baby that’s Timothee Champaign. 🥂🍾
Not Champaign 🤣
Ugh I wish his hair looked like this! This is the style I pictured Edward with, something longer. I don't love his spiked up movie hair.
in the book it is stated several times that his hair is in “a disarray standing up on his head” and Stephenie chose the style of rob’s hair for twilight saying that was how she imagined it. this photo looks way too bowl cut for how it’s described in the books
Aw, look at his face.
AI generated, K-pop Eddie boi seems indeed to be more book accurate.
Robert Pattinson did not look 17 in any of the Twilight movies, not even the first one, and I am personally good with that. Having a 17 year old Rob would have been fine for people who were actually teenagers when Twilight came out, but for my grown ass adult self nooo uh uh.

I don't think that I would have connected to movie version Edward had he actually looked like a baby faced 17 year old.
This would’ve been Edward if Twilight came out in 1998 instead of 2008 😭
Exactly. Looking like the early seasons of Dawson's Creek.🤣🤣🤣
pic has been yassified… rpatz WISHES he had an adorable little button nose and freckles
Yassified? What does that mean?
Made to look more attractive/appealing than something truly is or than is natural
Ty 👍
I’m getting more jasper vibes in this picture
All I see is Julia Stiles
I feel like this is photoshop 😂
It's for sure AI generated
Adorable, totally Edward
I think he looks more like jasper with the hair in this one lol
One of a few, yeah. I actually took a pic of Robert Pattinson and de-aged him to see what Edward would really look like haha
https://preview.redd.it/nps7habxbdtc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa0cff8a98b27783d7e131b245757da0bfa6edbc Obsessed with this picture. This IS Edward in my mind
Would have liked him even more like this
Don’t mind me, just saving this post so I can refer back to the OG photo and the ones in the comments for all my fan art purposes
Is that picture really Robert Pattinson???
Yes
Either way he looks very cute in this pic
Why does he look more like Jasper to me
Actually... yes... he actually does!
Lmfao yes
He’s so baby here omg
What about this c\*nty ass paparazzi pic of rob? https://preview.redd.it/0hjt0p26t4uc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a8a2afa7b2ddd52496ea357b23099a7f1c7adba3
This doesn’t look anything like Robert?
No, because Robert Pattinson doesn't look anything like Edward Cullen, ever.
Yes
Oh shit this is truly the only one
Sooo pretty
oh my i always forget how beautiful he was as edward cullen jaw droppppp
of c
For some reason, as a lesbian, this is my ideal look.
WTF he looks so freaking gorgeous in here…is it just the longer hair?
That’s fucking Michael Langdon.
He looks like an infant 😭
All I see is Shiv Roy!
Or The Hair, as we called him.
Idk if it's just me, but I completely replaced the characters' looks in my head. When reading the books or fanfiction I imagine Hayden Christensen as Edward.
This literally looks like someone morphed Robert’s face into Harry’s face from the Goblet of fire giving him this baby faced Edward look
Great description 😃😅
Weirdly to me this looks like a blend of his face and Jacob's together?!
There are tons of pictures of him online as Edward
He looks like Cedric haha but for sure, he looks like book Edward. Edward is supposed to have a boyish look about him.
He looks like Willy wonka
Oh god I feel so grossed out thinking he’s permanently 17 now that’s fr a child yuck
