No way. Don't like it. She's WAY to pretty. But of course, what do you expect, its a movie. They're not about to actually cast someone who is plain looking.
She is pretty dang close to how I picture Bella. So excited to see this movie!
I am so excited for this movie!
I never would have picked her, mostly because I don't know her. I guess I must be behind the times after reading her film credits.
I actually think she is perfect now that I see her. She looks a little like she would think she is too cool for school. She is pretty, but not too pretty. I always thought Bella would be, just she didn't think so herself.
i think i like her too. It isn't who I chose but I never did make that call to hollywood to throw my ideas around. I think they will do a good job with her.
I've never heard of her but she looks like a good match to me. I can't *freakin'* wait for that movie to come out!!!
i've never heard of her, but she looks very close to what i had pictured her to be! i am very excited to see who else will be cast!!
