LOL, my neighbor really likes Jasper. He really does stand out in this one and I can why Alice was drawn to him..

If Jasper actually looked like Jackson Rathbone in the films, I could definitely see myself being swayed to his team. ;)
Jasper is a cutie. Knowing his backstory definitely helped.
Wow, only picture of Jackson came up but damn, he looked good in it!
Usually I wouldn't buy the Twilight Saga movie companions but for Eclipse, I'll make an exception...only cause it's got more Jasper in it! Hehe! ^^
Wow i think i am the only person who does not like any of the movies! i guess i loved the books to much. To me way too much got left out and the important scenes were twisted up and in the wrong orders.They focused on the less important stuff to sell the movies and to me that was a shame. There makeup just keeps getting worse and in new moon edward looked sick when he should have looked georgeous.There acting is not good lol its bad so bad. I think there is way too much hype when these movies are no way as good as they could be if they werent being rushed.I went to see this movie at 12:00 and i even went in with really low standards so that i would not be too sad about it not being good but i still left the theater very unhappy.
Hey Caylin, we won't hate you too much, LOL! I understand and it is cool to see what others think..
Caylin, I agree with you. The books are definitely better than the movies but Eclipse is the first out of the Twilight Saga movies to resemble anything close to the books. Yes, they did leave out some things but I think they added the major points and fitted a lot in to 2 hours. But, I also would've liked to have seen a bit more. And in Eclipse they did put a few things in the wrong order but I think it was only 2 or 3 bits. At least Eclipse wasn't as bad as Twilight and New Moon but I do understand what you mean and where you're ocming from.
Movies are never as good as books. You can't take a 500 page book and turn it into a 2 hour movie without losing some of the good parts. Some book-to-movie adaptations are way better than others but still don't come close to the book. With that said, I still love the Twilight movies and Eclipse is the best of all of them.
I reread Eclipse right before seeing the movie and they pretty much nailed it. There were a few things that got changed, left out, shorten,etc. It is the same thing for the HP series; those movies cut so much out but they still made it work.
