Yeah, I have no idea

Just a random guess as to what the similarities between P&P and Twilight could be. Although Bella did think Edward hated her from his glares early on in the book?

Maybe Stephenie will explain one day, fingers crossed.

Also loved the bickering between Edward and Jacob in the tent in Eclipse

Such as:

"Go to sleep Jacob, you're starting to get on my nerves"
"I think I will. I'm quite comfortable"

The bickering was cool in the tent. But, I have no clue either how P&P can relate to Twilight. Maybe it is because of Bella thinking Edward hated her, maybe...But, I too hope she'll explain some day.

Yeah lol lets just keep our fingers crossed...

I liked the moment in the tent, it was good to see Edward & Jacob to actually talk to each other without ripping each others throats out, I loiked how when Jacob thought he could piss of Edward because he was sleeping next to Bella, Edward just threw it in his face on who Bella would be sleeping next to forever basicly lol

Man Edward is a nobal guy but when it comes to Bella, the rules change

That was my favourite chapter in the book!

I was so glad that we got them forced to interact in at least one chapter.

BTW as there are new posters here

who might have missed it before - if you would like a Twilight board you can go here at Special Requests thread and suggest Twilight.

Oooh! Done

I was a bit worried at first about Edward and Jacob being in the tent together, but they did well, remaining civil yet still snarky towards each other

Welcome to the thread Sacha

Cris, thanks for sharing the link again

Stephenie said about Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse the following -

Quote:

But I can say that if Twilight is about finding true love and New Moon is about loosing true love, than Eclipse is about choosing true love

You can watch it here

definitely

they are true love.

For Twilight icons I'd check:
Twilight Graphic Community
Twilight Series Quotes

thanks for the link for the icons.

about twilight being mirrored to Pride and Prejudice, i guess you could go with how they're from two different worlds and about how they probably never thought they'd find someone like that or be with someone like the other or find a true love and yet they are and found their true love in the most unlikely place?
yeah, she might explain one day the mirroring aspects.

Welcome Sacha!

civil but snarky, yes.

i agree.

I saw that too, I really liked it when she said that, now I wonder what Breaking Dawn will be about... having true love forever? hmm

well at least we know that it wont be about losing true love again... I hope

A_Lullaby · 08-25-2007, 12:42 PM

my guess is breaking dawn would be staying forever because finding, loosing, choosing, keeping.

I hope also...

Man me too, I don't know what the hell I'll do if that happens

Let's just keep our fingers crossed

I can finally post here without being spoiled

. It seemed the universe was against me when it came to reading Eclipse. But it's all good now. I'm going to go read through the previous thread because I assume that's where I missed all of the action.

ETA: Andie can we put a link to the previous thread in the first post? It's on the second page by now and I'm to lazy to go find it every time I want to refer to it

.

Fatale, I love your sig. I so died in that whole chapter...

*Dominique* · 08-26-2007, 10:17 AM

New fan here... I just finished Twilight so I have New Moon and Eclipse left. I know I know I shouldn't be here if I don't want to know what will happen but just wanted to stop by and leave as quickly to start New Moon. I still cannot picture any actor or actress as Edward, Jacob, Bella, etc. Maybe I will get a better picture as I read the other books.

twilight15 · 08-26-2007, 03:35 PM

Welcome to the forums

I picture Emily Browning for bella and Gaspard Ulliel for Edward.
