My friend Eileen Brennan is blogging today on the Liquid Silver blog about the impending release of the Twilight DVD. She doesn't really get the obsession with Edward.
As I mentioned in the comments, I don't really either. I was always firmly on Team Jacob, a fact which all of my Twilight-reading friends think is very, very weird. I think it has to do with being the mother of two girls. As I told Eileen in the comments section of her blog, I would want my girls to choose the NICE guy who is always there for them--not the suicide-threatening drama queen who freely admits he is constantly tempted KILL THEM IN THEIR SLEEP. This is not a healthy relationship, people.
The movie did make me appreciate it more. I know a lot of people will be headed to Borders at midnight to get the DVD, but as my brother Troy, Font of All Pop Culture Knowledge, informed me, Target's DVD is a better deal. You get more extras and an exclusive digital version for your iPod.

I like Edward. I was just as angsty as Kristen. And would have loved a fellow brooder.
Jacob - well, he needs to look a little more grown up for me to even swoon over him. Maybe all the muscle building stuff will help. But I have other actors in mind who would have been fantastic for that role. Oh well.
I pre-ordered my copy. Not sure what comes with it. I'm looking forward to this series. Brings my youth back to me.

I don't get the Twilight obsession, either, but I'm glad to see another Team Jacob friend. My thoughts are similar -- Jacob is just a nicer guy and nowhere near as freakishly obsessed/overprotective as Edward.
I don't lust after the actor who is playing Jacob at all--I agree that he looks like a baby! But while I was reading the books? Jacob all the way!
High five, Mariann! I am shocked to discover two Team Jacob people in one day!
