For the love of Bella!

We at The League realize that we are prone to having a laugh at Kristen Stewart's expense and think she's a total piss ant, but in the essence of fairness, we are determined to dedicate a post where we applaud her work in the film Twilight. We will attempt to separate Kristen Stewart the person from Kristen Stewart's portrayal of Bella in the Twilight Movie. Wish us luck.

I know that if I try hard enough I can find the Golden Onion within Kristen's incessant pouting, twitching and eye blinking and give credit where credit is due. Unfortunately, even though through most of the movie she did a GREAT job as Bella I choose to focus on the scenes where she blows because I actually think I resent her having the audacity to turn down Rob Pattinson. I think there's a compliment in there somewhere...

There you go again... you can't do it! Neither can I, it's so hard. WE will have to give each other the strength to do it. For the fans, for our professionalism, for our integrity, for our character, we have to be positive!! We have to be brave for one post!

This may require heavy doses of medication and bottles of wine for us all.

Oh, I think we can handle that.

You guys had me at wine!

Just like Spank is our resident Jacob-hater, I'm our resident Bella-lover. Oh wait... that didn't sound right at all. Sorry, too much wine. I loved KS as Bella in the movie. LOVED her. And thought she was cast perfectly. In fact, I liked her version of Bella better than Stephenie's version. *GASP* Yes, I just said that. Only because I like strong women, and Stephenie's version of human-Bella is very weak, always needing protection. I felt like KS played Bella as a little more strong, which I think matches Bella better. And I loved the blinking, jerking KS did and felt it was so Bella-esque. The only Bella part I didn't care for was the hospital scene, which I REALLY didn't like. It's KS and how she's acted AFTER the filming that has me annoyed at KS the person. But KS as Bella I liked. There I said it. I need that wine back now please.

**passes bottle**

Oh Ginger, you've got me all teary! Actually one of my favorite Bella moments is a teeny tiny one but I thought it was perfect and so real. When Bella and Charlie are in the kitchen and she just came home from school (greenhouse field trip) and was so utterly distracted by Edward that she couldn't even really speak. The way she responded to Charlie's questions and drank her water before emptying it quickly. And then the "hmm" before leaving the room was fantastic! I loved her in several other scenes too but let's not get too crazy with the Stewart Love Fest 09'.

OMG! Spider listen to you; you're drunk! But I actually agree: I enjoyed all of Kristen's scenes with Charlie. I felt she played off the father/daughter vibe between the characters brilliantly. ** tilts back head and empties bottle. **

Notice how I haven't actually said anything in this post? **sipping wine** I propose a toast to not saying anything if you have nothing good to say.








If we're really going to do an homage to Kristen Stewart right shouldn't we be hitting the bong instead of the bottle?
