Not So Sexy To Me


Now you all know I'm on Team Edward (except when he's smoking or has a beard... and then I'm on Team Jasper) but this has got to my my least favorite Edward part of the movie. Every night when I see this part of the movie, I'm thinking Edward is having some sort of digestive trouble, or maybe Bella's blood tastes like lemons... I don't know. Thoughts? Was this sexy to you? Cause it wasn't to me. I'm always relieved when Bella finally passes out and I don't have to see that silly look on Edward's face anymore.




I've written and erased this next statement once already, but I just cannot keep from the same exact first impression when I see this. Sometimes an ugly face is a good thing - especially his! Oops, I wrote it again!







Well, Kristen Stewart IS known to be a sourpuss so there's no reason to expect that what he was tastin' was sugary sweet. Now if he were to drink my blood, for instance....







Maybe they should've covered KS's arms with beer and cigarette ashes before this take. That way it'd seem more natural to him. (BTW, Rob, if you're reading this... I would bathe in beer and cigarettes if you're interested in practicing your technique with me.)

God this scene annoyed me beyond belief!
But I agree with Spank...her blood must taste so bad! I'd say it's all that pot she smokes!

Ninja Fanpire said...

Actually, Rob happened to look over at director Catherine Hardwicke right at this moment.

JoJo_KK said...

Nah ladies, I can safely say that's the face he pulls during sex ;-)

Ewwwww
You just officially converted me to Team Japser!! I bet Jackson's sex face is, you know, actually sexy!!

Anonymous said...

Just a sec...

I can't believe I just said that about Jackson.

Jackson, if you ever read this, please don't think I'm some kind of stalker freak...but if you want my number I'll freely give it to you!

@Emmy

AMEN!

Ninja Fanpire said...

That was to the post above the last one you just did b/c I posted 1 minute after you did and didn't see the second one so it doesn't exactly make sense.

@Migrah

All good I pretty much figured that.
But...Team Jasper all the way!!

Ninja Fanpire said...

When it comes to the men I am all Team Jazz.

But my absolute loyalty is Team Alice

I used to be completely Team Edward but...nah!
It's just all Team Jasper.
All though I have been known to support Team Emmett and Team Esme from time to time.

JoJo_KK said...

Jasper, if you;re reading this, unlike Emmy, I am a nutter, I will stalk you if that's what turns you on...........now drop me an email and I am all yours MWWWAAAAAAA (joke, kind of)

DeAun said...

Yep....he's still sexy....even sucking blood out of someone's forearm

imbeingheldhostage said...

Ginger, "Every NIGHT when I see this part of the movie"? do you have a your own special copy you're not sharing?

jennykate77 said...

YES, everytime I watch the movie is cringe at this part...it's just weird. I don't like his face or the way he's sucking on her arm...it just freaks me out! However...if the said arm he was sucking on way my arm...he could make any weirdo-drug-addict-gotta-have-a-hit face he wanted to.

~Jamie said...

The way I see it, I'll take it! If that's the only face I get from the man well, then I am still in, is that wrong?

Every night I watch it though... I question ALL the close ups at the end of the movie... why did they get so involved SO close up in the end like that?

Val said...

I might be wrong but I think I remember hearing that this scene was shot pretty close to beginning of shooting. You'd think they would have tried to do a re-take on that. I thought his hair look, well yikes you know. And the face he was doing, oh I cringe too. But I still love him!

lynn said...

This was my least favorite part of the movie. That face he makes just gives me the creeps. I started having to look away for a second!

we seriously think alike, girls :)

JoJo_KK said...

Seriously women, do I have to be volgar? It's his c*m face................ha!

tynie626 said...

yea, this face is so not sexy, but it's one of the best parts in the movie.. the combination of "let me sign" and the visual torment that edward is showing is just moving, to say the least.. knowing how much he lusted for her blood and to finally get to taste that, at the same time, he loves her and is struggling so hard not to take her life.. it's an amazing scene! i think anyone would show the same amount of torment if put in his position. i think rob did a great job with that scene

Sophie said...

Okay, if they slathered KS in cheeseburgers and beer...his face would have been a lot more lustful.

And @Lesley you said it so eloquently...it is some kind of combination with Rob's song and the fact that Edward (the character now not Rob the actor) is being awkwardly lustful...maybe that's just the awkwardly, lustful torment face...either way, I get right past it and onto the equally awkward and tormented "Edward Sleeping Position" in the hospital. WTH was that sitting up pose all about?

Unknown said...

@ Lesley - Thanks so much for your perfectly stated comment. That song was amazing for that scene and very emotional; I get chills! It still amazes me that the song wasn't written expressly for the movie.

Valarie Lea said...

Beside the awful look on his face, have you ever noticed the look on Bella's face?? She goes all crossed eyed and stuff, its just weird looking.

Anonymous said...

Valarie Lea... YES, that was very odd the first few times I saw it, but then I just figured since she was blacking out that could happen! Good call though!!

Gingersnaps said...

@imbeingheldhostage You noticed that, eh? ;)

Nicholas said...

That's a great question, how did I miss that. Ginger, do you watch it every night? How?? I didn't think it was coming out til March!! Do you go to the theatre every day or something?

tynie626 said...

@ katarinas mama lol @ edward's awkward sleeping position!! but u've got to remember edward doesn't sleep so it's bound to look staged. lol. he probably hurried over there and closed his eyes right before bella's mom came in!

also, another note about the torment. in the scene where edward and bella finally kiss, right after they kiss that 1st time and they break away, u see edward's lip twitch up, and he hesitates. kristen is the one to continue the kiss there. it was really subtle but i thought it was brilliant, and it showed a bit of the internal struggle he has with wanting to show his love for her physically and at the same time, trying to not cause her any harm.

@spank ransom "let me sign" is a brilliant song, and it fits so well with that scene. i get chills at the part where he sings "i will wrap you in my arms.." and they show the part where they are laying in the meadow, it's snowing and he has his arms around her. ugh, everything about that scene was just perfect

Unknown said...

@ Lesley: okay, that's it... I NEED to see Twilight again tonight. That visual you just gave triggered my OCD.

tynie626 said...

@spank ransom yes you must!! i've seen that scene a billion times and it melts my heart every time i watch it

Sophie said...

@Lesley - Oh dear God, cue the Lip Twitch scene...who has it on YouTube??? Must . See . Lip . Twitch . Now

Anonymous said...

Yeah, I hated this scene. I think Kristin did ok in it, but everything about Edward was all wrong. I can tell it was the first scene they filmed. The outfit he's wearing is butt ugly. He looks like he's wearing his brothers giant hand-me-downs...they don't fit at all..and why the vest? I've said this before. there are a lot of vests in this movie. Vests are so butt ugly. Vests died in the 80's and should have stayed there. And his face? Oh geez. Clearly Rob had not worked out the distressed face for Edward yet. It's also awful in the "look at my sparkly body" scene. UGH. But, it's good in the kissing scene. He looks like he's in pain, but not...ugly. lol

This is one of those times when I just want to smack Rob and say "You need to watch your own playbacks and dailies...how are you gonna improve something if you never look at it!? It's a VISUAL art, silly boy."

*sigh*

See this scene didn't bother me. The one in the science class where he's trying to look like he wants to bite her/hate her etc. is horrible. He looks constipated or something.

I cannot comment on sex faces. Nope. You cannot make me do it. Don't even try.

@brenda jean the scene in bio is eds face when he jizzes!!!! hahaha check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLnJFykb6G0&feature=channel_page

and to the post-- i really like this scene, it shows how he want to blood but at the same time he is thinking about how much he loves bella and wants her to b alive, and how he hates himself for wanting her blood. anyway Robert played the role perfectly expecally in this scene.
though the thirst is in the throat not stomach but it looks better in movie to b from stomach then to gribp the throat. :) haha

(showin the love for rob!!!!!)
