The Smitten Mintons: Twilight Re-Cast

As I mentioned last week, I bought my mom and I tickets for the Breaking Dawn midnight premiere. It would be an understatement to say I'm excited about this movie. I think this will be by far the best one yet. Wedding? Honeymoon? Vampire baby? Yes please.

I've never been a big fan of the casting in these movies, and I still don't find Robert Pattinson very attractive (except in Water for Elephants...that hair worked for him). I recently found this post where Gina listed her picks for each role. I agreed with many of them, but here's my dream Twilight cast.

Edward: As much as I like his personality for it, the looks just don't match up to his description. I completely agree with Gina that this guy fits the bill.

-------------

Bella: I was kind of torn on this one. When I first saw the movies, Kristen Stewart was not who I imagined Bella to be. I remember thinking that they changed her character the most...but I don't remember why. Now that I've seen the movies so many times, she's kind of grown on me. But I think Alexis Bledel is more of who I pictured in my head while reading.

---------------

Jacob: I would definitely keep Taylor Lautner. In spite of the fact that I HATED his long hair. Thank goodness that didn't last long.
----------------

Charlie: Definitely keep. He is perfect in this role.

---------------

Carlisle: I just don't like his fake blonde hair. I agree with Gina...two words. Paul. Walker.

-----------------

Alice: Definitely keep. Ashley Greene is perfect for the adorable pixie-like character.
---------------

Esme: I'm having a hard time coming up with a replacement, so I guess I'll just stick with their choice.
--------------

Rosalie: I think we need more of a bombshell for this role. Charlize Theron would be a perfect Rosalie.

---------------

Emmett: At first, I was going to keep Emmett. And then I remembered Channing Tatum.

----------------

Jasper: DEFINITELY change. I had a hard time thinking of who would be good for this role though. Zac Efron? Ryan Gosling? I think Gina nailed it with Chace Crawford. Hopefully he can do a better southern accent.
