I fell in love with Twilight Edward and he will always be my favorite. Bella is fantastic and Vampire Bella. Jacob looks great in all of them.

Edward went from bada** to soccer dad….what happened he used to be so sexy and dangerous…

I love Bella’s look in New Moon . In BD 2 she looks so hot.
Edward looks the best in Twilight <3 and BD 1 (really sexy ). ;F
Jacob doesn't change ;p

Edward looked the best in Twilight, just maybe not in this picture. I haven’t really swooned over him since the first movie.

I love New Moon Bella and BD pt 2 Vamp. Twilight and BD Edward and New Moon Jacob…I mean he kinda looks the same in all of them except Twilight so I guess all of them?

Of course, and this deserves a special explanation, I never forget Edward in Volterra! Definitely, the best!

I never noticed it either!

I’m caught between the Twilight Bella and the Breaking Dawn Part 2 Bella. Both have their attributes. The Twilight Bella looks so fragile and… human. Yet like a beauty. Like a Bella. My FAVORITE Edward has to be HANDS DOWN… New Moon Edward. He just looks so hot and just… masculine. The jaw, the eyes, the suit. My favorite Jacob would also have to be New Moon. It shows his innocense almost. His youth yknow before the whole werewold shinanigins happened. Overall. I was pretty pleased with pictures. But it just made me so sad at the same time… Yknow to see all the pictures there from every movie.
Its almost as if a big smack across the face like to tell you that its ending. My only reason for even dealing with people for the past 5 years. Is ending. I honestly don’t know what I’m going to do with myself when its over… -starts pondering-

Surprised to say Jacob was the one that changed the least:/ especially wen he was the one that was suposed to changge the most and everyone else is not supposed change

Twilight Bella is the most beautiful and fragile one, really true to how she’s supposed to be but I also think she gains confidence throughout the story and that kinda shows in the pictures. And of course she’s badass as a vampire (her mouth bothers me though, it looks very high up but that’s just this image ) But I will always love Twilight Bella

Edward looks the most alien in Twilight, he really looks fierce and those cheekbones… wow! I must say he looks more and more “human” in the other pictures but in BD2 he looks pretty fierce again with those eyes

Jacob, besides him looking very innocent in Twilight there’s not a big different in his face, but if u take a look at his body, wow what a transformation! He had a nice body before but now he’s buff ;P He looks very determined in BD1 which I really like cause that was a big challenge for him and took a lot out of him

and that’s what I think

Bella – twilight and bd 2
Edward – twilight and bd 2
Jacob – both bd’s

Mail.comI don’t think I can find better words to describe them the way you have

It does feel like a smack in the face. Like no mor are gonna come out

Bella- Twilight, although I liked her look in New Moon and BD1 as well (she looked so cute with a tan)
Edward- Twilight (without a doubt)
Carlisle- Twilight (also without a doubt)
Esme- Twilight
Alice- Twilight
Emmett- He looks good in all of them
Rosalie- Twilight
Jasper- Twilight (again without a doubt, during that baseball seen, ow owww!)
Jacob- New Moon

As you can see, most of mine is Twilight. And that’s because they didn’t go crazy with the makeup. Everything was subtle. I loved the blue tint in that movie, I feel like that helped too. Also, Peter and Nikki dyed their hair for Twilight, which really helped. I mean, Carlisle was HOT in that movie! Bella looked the most Bella-ish (in my opinion) in the Twilight scene where she is talking to Edward for the first time in their biology class. She looked sooo Bella there. I loved everything about Twilight. The right feel, the right look, the right music. That’s how I got hooked!

I’ll just say my least favorites for all of them… Bella – did NOT like Eclipse because of that blasted wig. Edward – he’s good in all of them. Jacob – did NOT like the Twilight one because, I’m sorry, but Taylor should NOT have long hair… he just can’t pull that look off right.

Bella in New Moon was my fave too! Pea coat Edward’s eyebrows! I like the sideburns in Eclipse. LOL! I like Jacob in New moon.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who feels that way! I agree about the script, but jeez, like you said, the first Twilight made you FEEL like Twilight is a real world. It just made me feel something so strong, like nothing I’ve ever experienced with any other movie. After I saw the movies I read the books so many times, too many times to count. Anyway, (haha I’m getting off topic too!) I agree with you about the low budget thing. It was almost like an indie movie. There wasn’t so much pressure. Sometimes the simpler, the better. They toned down the film with simple makeup, simple set design, simple surroundings, toned down colors, that way the acting/the story really, really shined. It made the movie powerful. And I can’t forget to mention the music. The music should have won an Oscar. I’ve never heard such an amazing soundtrack for a movie, it was absolutely perfect. Like you said, “haunting.” Nothing can match that!

I’m so with you guys! Twilight hit the mark. The script may have been off, but according to sources it was supposed to be really more away from the book than what we saw and Catherine H. and Kristen insisted it stick more to the book, so it was rewritten. Thankfully, or else it would’ve been another Eragon. A huge literary success, but only one movie because it didn’t follow the book series. . . Anyways, I digress. I will always love the feel, the music and the characters and their visual presentation in Twilight. Once again, Catherine Hardwick hit it right on the mark. A woman knows what we women fans wanted. I do think Bill did an incredible job with the final films, but I miss Edward looking like Edward. But, Rob’s so handsome we overlooked it. The only one I liked better after Twilight was Rose in Eclipse. When she’s standing on the balcony in the moonlight, she looked like a goddess. But, Jasper playing baseball in Twilight, Mmmmmm, what a hottie. And, Carlisle was so handsome, I forgot about Edward for a few minutes when he walked in for his first scene. Nevertheless, I’d be remiss to miss saying, Kristen is flawless as a vampire, in both color eyes. Simply gorgeous.

Dear DearJacob_I_Win_SincrlyEdwrd & Ryder:
Wow! I KNEW I was not alone in my musings I could honestly go on and ON about my strong feelings for the first Twilight movie (and all things Twilight, too!)….I want to make it clear that I L.O.V.E. all the books/movies equally, HOWEVER I find myself watching the first movie and listening to the first sdtrk and score WAAAAY more than the others because it is in those very moments where Twilight feels the most tangible and ALIVE to me! Again, I LOVE all the movies, sdtrks, scores, directors, etc. however, I just think that after the first Twilight movie became soooo popular, HOLLYWOOD decided to become involved and while Hollywood has provided such great entertainment, movies, etc. I just think that it became a bit less “Twilight”….less Stephenie Meyer..does that make sense? It just seems that from New Moon on, everything seemed to look and feel almost TOO perfect and that is where I lose SOME of the magic that is Twilight….for example, some have complained of the lack of quality of the camera shots in the first movie, but I kind of like it that way because it gives me the sensation of seeing something that I could actually see in real life (i.e. KIND of like watching a home movie for lack of a better comparison)..thank you, Ryder for the insight of how Catherine (and K.S.) wanted to follow more of the book. I would also like to add another little known fact is that she, C.H., has said in an interview that I have read myself saying that they were doing Twilight during the writers’ strike and had to wrap up production a lot earlier than anticipated so she had to rush the movie which made her feel that Twilight’s quality was not where she wanted it to be. Ok, I have written a BIBLE of a comment here, but I do want to say one more thing….Rob (and his hair) is the BEST in the first one (everyone else as well)…he looked like he could have been a “real” vampire and his hair was EXACTLY how I felt SM described it!!! I think the make-up and costume teams NAILED it during the scene where Bella goes to the Cullen house for the first time (LOVE Rose’s highlights, Esme’s hair was right on, etc.)…and MY MOST FAVORITE SCENE is when “Claire de lune” is playing and Edward gives Bella his PERFECT crooked smile and then they play in the trees where Carter Burwell’s PERFECT song (have you read the story behind that? Go on his website—don’t just read the cd jacket!) makes my heart just smile Oh, I KNOW what movie I am going to watch tonight

p.s. I am 30, I teach at a Univ. , married, and I am NOT like my 14 yr old cousin who loves Twilight because her hormones tell her to! I really love Twilight because of its pureness AND I have colleagues that are in their 40s and LOVE Twilight too!

Thank you for this great post and to all the interesting comments below! I would just like to say that while this post is quite fun and intriguing, it just reminds me of a small annoyance I have with Hollywood: Whenever there are sequels of movies that involve different directors, instead of thinking of COHERENCE in the esthetics of the characters, it gives me the impression that when a NEW makeup team is hired (albeit their talent) they are trying to “out do” the previous team’s work. Does that make sense? Let’s just say Jasper’s and Alice’s “hair” have been the victim of this “effect”. I mean, come on! S.M.’s vampires, once changed, can NOT change in length or color Ok! Off my soapbox now….

i love them all and love how they have transformed throughout the whole series. they did an amazing job making them seem more grown throughout them all!

Agree Bella’s new moon and BD1 are my faves. Edward’s BD1 too, he looked young and sexy, extremely hot during the honeymoon! the rest of the Cullens looked best in New Moon, especially Esme! they have ruined her look in the other movies, she looked sophisticated, elegant and very much of a vampire! I liked Eclipse’s Rosalie and Alice too

It’s nice to hear people feel the same that I do about the first movie. The colors, the music, their makeup, hair, they all looked better in the first movie for sure. Edward and Bella seemed more natural. Using a different director for every book sure didnt help Twilight. If it hadnt been for the first director, Twighlight the movie wouldnt exist. She’s the one who had a script written from the book, she’s the one who pitched the movie to big film production companies, who all turned her down. I bet Paramount’s big wigs are kicking themselves now. The movies could have been so much better from the beginning had a bigger production co bought the rights.
