I don't know I like him. I think it's nice to have him play Edward because Heyden Christensen is just assiciated with star wars. Stephenie Meyer's ideal Edward was Henry Cavill but he was too old for the part. I'm glad coz I think Robert is perfect.
I think Gaspard Ulliel would be a good Edward. I've read the books before the movie came out and I imagined him not like Robert. Well, in fact, nobody can play Edward, 'cause he's not even human.
I thought he was okay.
But when you think about it, I really doubt anyone wold be perfectly happy with whichever actor plays Edward.
Mainly because everyone painted a different picture of him in their heads.

I disagree. Ofcourse nobody Can live up to Edward in the book he's perfect. However this story was about the love between Edward and Bella and Robert and Kristen's chemistry was freaken amazing. It took my breath away more than once. Plus I think Robert brought out some real human qualities in Edward while still being the beautiful, intense vampire. Plus he's just real nice to look at!!! I give two thumbs up to Robert Pattinson!! In closing I do want to say I am a huge fan of Hayden Christianson I loved him in Star Wars and he is totally hot , but I just don't see him as Edward!!!
i also agree.. i don't want robert pattinson as the edward cullen..but there's nothing we can do about it... when i was reading twilight books, a perfect face for that edward cullen pops in my head.. i would want him to play edward because he's the only perfect guy in the universe (well, at least for me..).. but he can't because he just a child like me.. he's my crush at school, by the way...
