Dagens sitat: "I think about Twilight as much as men think about sex". Men snakker vi Rob eller Edward?

Jeg har en bekjennelse å komme med. Jeg er mer forelska i Robert Pattinson enn i Edward. Det betyr ikke at jeg ikke er litt forelska i Edward også, men det er kanskje riktigere å si at jeg er forelska i hele Twilighuniverset - med Edward som favorittkarakter.

Jeg må også innrømme at jeg har gått i den fella at jeg trodde andre fans var som meg, og at jo eldre vi var, jo i større grad var vi besatt av den ekte, virkelige, mannen Robert Pattinson, og i mindre grad opptatt av Edward. La meg gjenta: Absolutt opptatt av og forelska i og stor fan av Edward, for ikke å snakke om dratt inn hver gang jeg leser Twilight, men BESATT av Rob. Dessuten har jeg aldri sett på Edward som perfekt (Stephenie Meyer er enig med meg!). Rob er perfekt.

Jeg tok feil.

Edward.

Fra twilightmoonlighter.com.

Mannebladet Details - det bladet, ja - har en herlig artikkel skrevet av Jeff Gordinier om godt voksne Edwardfans. Nytt favorittsitat: "I think about Twilight as much as men think about sex":

So the Woman You Love Has the Hots for a Vampire. What Does That Say About You?

Jeg hopper inn et stykke ut i artikkelen. Det handler om en gruppe kvinner i sin beste alder (30 - og 40-åra), som har resit til Forks for å feire Stephenie Meyer Day.

"I dream about him," says Tanna Noble, a 46-year-old Twihard from Eatonville, Washington. Dangling from her neck is an ancient-looking pendant that represents the Cullen family crest. "I dream explicit dreams about Edward. You can't put down what I dream about Edward. It is very, very erotic. It's not Rob Pattinson. It's Edward.""

Robward.

Fra sodahead.com.

""Rob is just Rob," chimes in her friend Lynn Robbins, a 46-year-old mother of two who has made the trip from Virginia. "It's not about Rob at all." Tanna and Lynn first met electronically, on a Twilight fan site where Tanna, using the pseudonym "Cynder," has logged more than 7,200 posts. Right now, Lynn is wearing topaz-colored contact lenses that cover her normally blue-green eyes, because—well, it's complicated to explain, but in the first Twilight book, Bella tells Edward that her new favorite gemstone is topaz because of the color of his eyes. Twilight fanatics are as precise with their details as Civil War reenactors.

"I would love to be bitten by Edward," Tanna says. "He's just everything. Oh, my God. It's O.M.E.—oh, my Edward! Not a day goes by that I don't think about Twilight. I think about Twilight as much as men think about sex.""

Pattinson. Robert Pattinson.

Fra newmoonbuzz.com.

"Ask these two friends why so many women their age have latched onto Twilight, and they answer in unison: "Forbidden love." Then ask them if Edward bears a resemblance to their husbands.

"Not at all," Lynn says.

"Nooo," says Tanna. "No way."

They go on to talk about something that becomes a running theme during this weekend—so much so, in fact, that a casual visitor might come to the conclusion that all that vampire stuff is little more than a red herring. What Stephenie Meyer Day really boils down to is a cloaked symposium on the state of American marriage. In other words: Gentlemen, your wives have something they want to tell you. The polite way to put it is that the pressures and demands of running a home in the 21st century have a way of siphoning off the platelets from even the most red-blooded of romantic unions. To be blunt: Life is a grind, and our wives are bored shitless. Edward Cullen has, for millions of passion-starved better halves worldwide, become the undead embodiment of everything the contemporary schlub seems to have shed: danger, poetry, strength, speed, eternal devotion, and an insatiable hunger for the jugular. Meanwhile, the defanged mortal males of Earth, their rumps firmly planted in front of the flat-screen and their breath faintly fragrant of Pirate's Booty, have become, thanks to Edward, one big collective cuckold."

Robnostalgi med Cosmogirl-Rob fra 2008.

Fra Cosmogirl.

""A lot of guys tell me they think Edward's a stalker," says Kristina Hart, a 30-year-old Boeing employee. "I wouldn't mind being stalked by Edward." She's wearing a T-shirt that says, "Edward can BUST my headboard, BITE my pillows, and BRUISE my body any day!"

Apparently it's not Edward Cullen who's been living in the dark. It's you."


Mest Robfan - som meg? Totalt uenig i at "Rob is just Rob" (WTF?!??)? Fortvil ikke, vår objektivisering og sexploitation av Robert Pattinson er også veldokumentert!

Dagens sitat: "You can't get AIDS if you wear a condom."

Dette er vel mer en historie enn et sitat, whatev. Jeg fant den på Facebookgruppa Twilight Secrets (den er åpen - bli medlem i dag). Her er historien:

"My mother had never seen Twilight, so a few nights ago, she wanted to sit and watch it with me. In the cafeteria scene when you first see Edward, I said to my mom, "That Robert Pattinson is so hot. I am pretty sure I would still sleep with him even if he had AIDS." To which my mom replies, "You can't get AIDS if you wear a condom.""

Jada, Team Buffy leverer varene. Dagens bilder og sitater: Edward Cullen. Den glitrende vampyren

Team Buffy leverer varene. Et medlem av Facebookgruppa mi - en nyfødt som akkurat har lest Twilight i påsken og forelsket seg i Edward (selvfølgelig) - får nå denne skreddersydde posten. Jeg lever for å tjene dere, folkens.

Edward som viser Bella hvordan han ser ut i sollys er en nøkkelscene både i boka og filmen, samtidig som glitringen er noe av det som er blitt latterliggjort flest ganger av haterne. Her er det avgjørende øyeblikket i hatversjonen, bokversjonen, filmversjonen, og jada, selvfølgelig, i Robert Pattinsonversjonen(e):

La oss ta haternes versjon først. Det er jo bare herlig:

Fra Shelby hos Twilight Sucks!!!


Bokversjonen - avdempet og lekent:
Edward seemed to take a deep breath, and then he stepped out into the bright glow of the midday sun.

Edward in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn’t get used to it, though I had been staring at him all afternoon. His skin […] literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface. He lay perfectly still in the grass […] A perfect statue, carved in some unknown stone, smooth like marble, glittering like crystal […]

“I don’t scare you?” he asked playfully, but I could hear the real curiosity in his soft voice. “No more than usual”.

Filmversjonen - dramatisk:

Bella: It's like diamonds... you're beautiful.

Edward: Beautiful? This is the skin of a killer, Bella... I'm a killer.

Bella: I don't believe that.

Edward: That's because you believe only the lies... the camouflage. I'm the world's most dangerous predator, Bella. Every thing about me invites you in. My voice, my face, even my smell. As if I would need any of that... as if you could out run me... as if you could fight me off. I'm designed to kill.

Bella: I don't care.

Edward: I've killed people before.

Bella: It doesn't matter.

Edward: I wanted to kill you at first. I've never wanted a human's blood so much, before.

Bella: I trust you.

Edward: Don't.

Film - Edward viser Bella sitt sanne jeg:

Jajaja, han glitrer mer i filmen. Bittelitt.

RPattzversjonen:
Fra kommentarsporet på DVD'en: "I'm sorry, Bella. I'm just like a sweaty guy."

TB's favoritt: "This is what I am...I don't have a six pack, Bella!" Må sees.


Fra xsomethingxspecialx

Det er mulig jeg ikke er helt objektiv nå, men jeg har sansen for RPattzversjonen:-) 221 dager igjen til du-vet-hva i et italiensk smug!

Dagens sitat: "If he is not shagging me I don't care who he shags"

Hvorfor skal jeg bare ha sitater fra filmen og bøkene? Hva med fansen? Skal ikke vi ha en stemme? Dette kan også leses som en oppfølging av den enormt populære posten I hvilken grad RPattz er ei hore, om han ligger rundt eller er for SHY GUY til å ha one night stands, og alt det andre vi lurer på om sexlivet hans som jeg skrev for en stund siden.

Jeg innrømmer at jeg er litt hårsår hver gang romanseryktene går. Og jeg er IKKE alene. Gozde borte hos Robsessed vet råd, og har følgende motto hun oppfordrer resten av fansen til å innta også: "If he is not shagging me I don't care who he shags".

Det funker...nesten. BTW, hva synes vi egentlig om Nikki Reed og Rob? Just sayin.

Her er en pre-Twilight hyllest til Rob:


Fra magdavess.

Variasjoner av mottoet og fankommentarer:
"I hope he is getting shagged because he is too hot not to be."

"I don't care who Rob's shagging as long as the poor guys is getting some from someone ;)"

"From what I hear shagging Rob can cure cancer. True story!"

"...he's sex on legs to not be getting any. It's actually kinda sad if he's not."

"I've heard that shagging Rob can not only cure cancer, but also repair the ozone layer, solve the global economic crisis and bring about peace in the Middle East."

"Of course he is getting SOME...he's Robert Fucking Pattinson!"

"As long as he is shagging anyone, so he can become an even more adorable man I´m totally supportiv ;-) Seriously, nothing is worser than a man with no expierence at a certain age, just my decent opinion :-)"

Dagens sitater. Og et bilde. Og, ok da, et gammelt intervju

Entertainmentwise.com bringer oss 15 gode RPattz-sitater. Jeg har videreformidlet noen av disse tidligere, men vi tar da virkelig ikke skade av å lese dem om igjen. Og om igjen.

Jeg vurderte å poste alle 15 med tilhørende bilder, men ombestemte meg og poster 3, med bare tre (og små) bilder. Beklager å måtte være en skuffelse.


Bildene er fra et radiointervju hos Ryan Seacrest.

On being unable to stop talking during interviews: "During interviews I’m literally sh*ting my pants. I don’t want there to be a silence, because I’ll start crying.” *Når skal du innse at vi er skapt for hverandre, Rob*

On scary obsessed fans: "There was a group of girls that left little notes in my car, outside of my apartment. One of the first notes said: I’m not weird, but please call me. The next day the note said: Please don’t ignore me. And the next day it said I’m going to kill myself if you keep ignoring me! (but I’m not weird, ok?)." - OK! *Dette ville jeg aldri gjort mot deg, hvem er det som skriver sånne beskjeder til deg?*

On being attracted to 'mental' women: "The stuff I find attractive in women, I always regret finding attractive. I always like a kind of madness in a woman, and when they are really, really strong. And they're the worst - mental, strong women!" - Closer *Hva venter du på? Jeg er her! Jeg er her!*

Ok, da. Her er radiointervjuet fra Ryan Seacrest, i 3 deler:




Det finnes et opptak fra dette intervjuet, tror noen filmer med et mobilkamera gjennom et vindu, og Rob blir så fantastisk flau og rødmer og ser ut som om han bare vil dø når de spiller litt av musikken hans. Love it.



Takk til Robsessed for tipset om de 15 sitatene.

Dagens bilde og sitat: “It’s the thought that counts. I ought to know.”

Haha. Stakkars Edward. Men *spoiler alert* det blir jo noe på deg tilslutt! Jeg ler så mye at jeg ikke husker i hvilken av Twilightbøkene jeg hentet sitatet, men jeg syntes det var en utrolig god ide å koble det til dette bildet:


Fant bildet hos TwiCrack, som ikke visste hvem som opprinnelig laget det. Takk uansett, you made my day.

Dagens bilde og sitat: AS IF U COULD OUTRUN ME. AS IF U COULD FIGHT ME OFF

Det skjer noe med hjernen min når ulike univers som dette møtes. Jeg vet ikke om det er bra eller dårlig (for hjernen min, på lengre sikt, mener jeg). Men dette var sånn en cutie at jeg bare måtte få det ut på bloggen.



Bildet kommer fra Viktoria Liepold fra Fighting Evil by Twatlight. Tusen takk.

"Well, then I hope you enjoy disappointment." Også kjent som dagens sitat og bilde. I dag: Bella og Edward på sykehuset.

Dette er fra scenen med Bella og Edward på sykehuset. Edward har akkurat reddet Bella fra bilen til Tyler, og Bella vil ha noen svar:

Edward: What?
Bella: How did you get over to me so fast?
Edward: I was standing right next to you, Bella.
Bella: No. You were next to your car, across the lot.
Edward: No, I wasn't.
Bella: Yes, you were.
Edward: Bella, you injured your head. I think you're confused.
Bella: I know what I saw.
Edward: And what exactly was that?
Bella: You...you stopped the van. You pushed it away with your hand.
Edward: Well, nobody's going to believe you.
Bella: I wasn't going to tell anybody. I just need to know...the truth.
Edward: Can't you just thank me and get over it?
Bella: Thank you.
Edward: You're not gonna let this go, are you?
Bella: No.
Edward: Well, then I hope you enjoy disappointment.

Dagens bilde og sitat: "About three things I was absolutely positive..."

Bella (bokversjonen): "About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him - and I didn't know how potent that part might be - that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him."

I filmen sier Bella dette i voice-over. Det er morgen, hun er på rommet sitt, hun hører et bilhorn, titter ut av vinduet sitt...Og der står Edward, lent mot volvoen sin, og venter på å kjøre henne til skolen. Å, Edward. Du var og er en gentleman.

"Yes. No. To get to the other side". Dagens bilde og sitat!

Bella: Look, You gotta give me some answers.
Edward: Yes. No. To get to the other side. Uh, 1.77245...
Bella: I don't need to know what the square root of pi is.
Edward: You knew that?

"Well, you really shouldn't have said that", også kjent som Robs versjon av det skjeve smilet

Her er det skjeve smilet! Det gjør seg mye bedre på filmen enn på bildet, men likevel. Det. Er. Det. Skjeve. Smilet. OME.
