Team Jacob

When I entered the midnight showing of NEW MOON, I was an Edward Fan, always had been...but NEW MOON transformed me - into a Jacob Fan. Blasphemy! How could I so carelessly switch sides so fast!?! Easy: Jacob is simply hotter, nicer, less awkward, and more alive than Edward. I never picked this fact up while reading the books, but after seeing the movie, I finally realized why the Team Jacob existed. I was pleasantly surprised with Taylor Lautner's performance and accomplished exactly what the NEW MOON novel wanted: you should want Jacob as much as Edward, if not more. The movie was faaaarrr better than Twilight, although I still say they need to tone down R.Pattz' makeup...its making him less attractive to me. Anywho I cannot wait for eclipse to come out - its supposed to be this summer!

What did y'all think of NEW MOON?
.
Here is my New Moon playlist - songs about moons, werewolves, blood, and twilight:
.
1. Full Moon – The Black Ghosts
2. Werewolf - Cocorosie
3. Fresh Blood - Eels
4. Blood Bank – Bon Iver
5. Moon - Sia
6. Twilight – The Raveonettes
7. Moonlight Fantasy – The Golden Filter
8. You’re A Wolf – Sea Wolf
9. Twilight – Vanessa Carlton
10. Exit Music – Vampire Weekend
.
**Also check out the OST for the movie, it has some really great new indie music on it

^^^ HOTTT (literally and figuratively haha)!!!

I've always been "Team Jacob"! Ever since the books came out. There's just something so rugged and kind about his character! *sigh*

I had the exact same realization while watching the movie last night! I used to be an unwavering member of team Edward, but after seeing the movie it completely changed my mind.

I Seen It Last Night And I'm Still Team Edward. I Must Admit, Jacob's Six-Pack Caught My Eye More Than Once. Still, Team Edward All The Way!

Cara said...

I've always felt equally about Edward and Jacob. However, after the movie I think I like Taylor more than Rob!
xx,CC
P.S. OST is amazing! I'm particularly obsessed with the Thom Yorke song.

I've not read the books, or seen the films, so I feel like I'm Team no one. Scratch that - I read about 200 pages of Twilight and liked Edward quite a bit, but I can't say that I'm all for him, as I was hardly introduced to Jacob.

Anyway...love the playlist. I heart Vampire Weekend! :)

I can't wait to see the movie! I enjoyed Twilight more than I thought I would... but I haven't read New Moon yet. Should I see the movie or read the book first?
And Jacob Black beats Edward Cullen any day!

Miri said...

Team Jacob! Heck yeah!!!! Edward is creepy and pale and a big stalker. I can't wait to see that movie!

By the way, I looove your blog! I've actually been reading it for awhile and now I made an account so I can comment! Woohoo!! I love the fashion posts and all that jazz.

Jacob is everything a guy should be and more, I've been a fan since the beginning and the movie just made me more sure of it :)

I wasn't converted completely, but that's probably only because I don't consider the movies much of an authority compared to the books. If we're talking purely movies... mmm, Jacob.

I couldn't help laughing at the slow-mo scene when Edward takes of his shirt during his suicide attempt... it was very suspenseful... and then.. disappointment. Must say I liked RPattz better in Harry Potter. :P

And yes, this one was much better than Twilight was!

Unknown said...

I read the 4 books already and always felt way more drawn to Jacob than Edward... I'm totally a Jacob girl.. and once the movies came out and saw Jacob in the flesh.. WOW!.. I don't regret my past choice.. he's so much hotter than Edward.

I went to go see the midnight showing when it came out here in the UK, and I really liked it, but some parts were soooo awwwwkward.
The whole cinema was laughing at some pieces of bad acting, and the moment Alice had a vision of Edward & Bella running through the forest had everyone in giggles.
My favourite part? Marcus' giant man hands. Try holding your hands in weird claw-paws, saying "You already know what you are going to do, Aaaaaaaro"

Team Jacob!! I've always been one and I'll never change that but I couldn't say why I was one. While reading your post I was nodding and thinking "That's WHY I'm team Jacob!" :)
