Did you think Kristen was right for the part of Bella?

Truthfully I hadn't heard anything of the Twilight Saga until Twilight came out on DVD(I know I know. I was a sleep deprived new mom out of touch). So I saw the movie at a friends and thought she was eh not a great actress. I was so rapt by the film I had to get the books(always the better option) and that's when I thought "oh ok I understand where she is coming from" or "oooh this part is helpful when visualizing Kristen's acting" i.e. her expressions, tone and mannerisms.
Maybe my experience helped me to appreciate her portrayal. Where as reading books first-there will always be some level of disappointment.
I'm more disliking of the films being so short and lacking. I mean it's a SAGA. 3plus hour films would have done more justice. Wouldn't any actress have a hard time conveying their character in such a condensed way?

ps. feel so bad for RP . Can't believe Kristen Stewart cheated on him. They were perfect together. :-(


A: I think she did portray Bella alright. I actually also saw Twilight before i started reading, so I could see why she did some of the things. I thought she got better at acting during the series. I don't think she's perfect for the role, but I don't know who could have played her instead of Kristen.

B. Eww, no. (Say who you wanted in the comments)
C. I guess
D. I didn't really care
