Miss on a Mission {Nina/Elena} #28: "She’s a revelation." ~ Kevin Williamson
Welcome to the 28th NINA DOBREV | ELENA GILBERT appreciation thread
"Every role is a challenge. I want to keep doing everything! I want to try to do things that aren’t similar to one another." Nina SUPPORTERS. I love Elena because she has guts. She's strong. She's not afraid to stand up for herself and what she believes in. She's the most relatable character on the show and she has a huge heart. She always tries to see the good in people and is constantly there for her friends and family. She's extremely loyal and passionate and is always there when someone needs support. I see very similar characteristics with Nina. Not to mention that Nina is beautiful and extremely talented. She seems to get along really well with her castmates and she plays both of her roles on the show perfectly. Alexa I am a fan Nina because not only is she beautiful and talented, but she seems so down to earth. Even though she has became very popular within the last year, it is still obvious she just loves to act and is grateful to be able to do so. Nina seems to still be a young adult, not a celebrity. I can relate to her, and could see myself simply hanging out with her because she is fun and kind. infallible love Good Canadian Girl! I remember first seeing her as Mia on Degrassi: TNG and really enjoying her character, but of course Ms. Elena Gilbert takes the cake. I'm so happy she gets to be on such an amazing and popular show. She's a great character and a total sweetheart. allybubba I’ve known Nina for a few years, as Mia in Degrassi. I liked her but I wasn’t a fan. Yet. By then, I wouldn’t imagine her playing Elena. I felt weird about that. But she proved me and everyone that she was an amazing actress and that she would be the best Elena we could have hoped for. I’m so proud of her. She made of Elena an amazing character, and despite the success, she stayed down-to-earth. She’s a pearl. Pauline<3 When I started watching the show I was not too sure about Elena Gilbert, if I was going to like her as much as I really wanted to, because I love her in the VD books. Luckily, Elena was a more loveable character than a lot of people expected and more than people give her credit for. I love her fire and determination to do what she thinks is right, her courage to just jump in to dangerous situations to help those she cares about. And what I love the most is that Elena is not just a girl you can push around. Her love and compassion are really the two most obvious qualities in her, and to top all of that she is a fun girl given the righ circumstances and company. And now to the girl who plays Elena, Nina Dobrev. This girl has one of the most adorable personalities in Hollywood. She seems so down to earth and really sweet to her fans. And I love the fact that she's not above goofing around in front of all the fans and photographers. In the beginning of the show I was not the biggest fan of Nina's acting in very dramatic and emotional scenes, but she quickly improved and proved me wrong. Not only can she portray sweet Elena with perfection, but she also plays fierce, evil Katherine Pierce, the exact opposite of Elena, to more perfection than perfection itself. It's just so believable and her scenes as Katherine are amazing! She juggles the two different characters flawessly. With time and the right decisions, I think Nina Dobrev will become a superstar with this kind of talent. MissDK I think Nina is a gorgeous, talented and funny actress who has given the character of Elena a new life. I do love book!Elena so I was a little afraid when KW and JP wanted to change her character around but I feel like Nina has been able to portray Elena as someone who can be sweet, nice and compassionate but also fiery, fun and who would protect the people that she loves at moment's notice. When she plays Katherine, you really feel like there's a completely different person on screen, a sinister person with ill intentions. Nina is the only person that could have played these two roles with such beauty and precision! naturellebella Previous threads: {01} {02} {03} {04} {05} {06} {07} {08} {09} {10} {11} {12} {13} {14} {15} {16} {17} {18} {19} {20} {21} {22}{23} {25}{26} {27} Future titles: “She’s very strong and courageous, and she takes on every challenge to the best of her ability" - Nina "No matter what happens in the future and what gets thrown her at her, she will gracefully try to deal with as much as she can" - Nina When Elena stepped in front of Caroline... she proved again how frakking brave she is-- CrissyCalhoun "Trust us, there's much more to love about Nina than just a few pints of warm blood." ~ Maxim "Nina Dobrev. Even garlic breath can't keep us away." ~ Maxim Nina Dobrev’s performance as both Katherine and Elena was superb - TV OverMind Nina Dobrev effortlessly slips between Elena and Katherine and plays both to perfection. TV OverMind She commanded both roles showing that it takes more than wardrobe and hair to portray these different characters. - TV OverMind Nina Dobrev had better get ready for an extraordinary career, because she just proved that she can pretty much do anything. - Zap2It Were I wearing a hat, I'd tip it in Ms. Nina Dobrev's direction, for her nuanced portrayal of these two very different characters. Sharp, sharp work. - TWOP Elena stands in front of Caroline to block Damon because she is sort of a badass in a human way. - TVChick I think it's a bit of a stretch to compare Elena and Katherine, but I like these darker layers on Elena. - Zap2It Daily dazzler @ninadobrev is fearless. - Kevin Williamson Sweet little Elena has a dark side - CliqueClack TV Nina Dobrev has been masterfully playing Elena Gilbert and her as-yet-unexplained ancestor Katherine Pierce - PopWrap I hate to be redundant in every. single. recap, but it has to be said: Nina Dobrev is killing it. Full stop. - Zap2It When this series ends (hopefully ten years from now), she is going to be able to walk right into whatever kind of acting career she wants to have. - Zap2It The kind of dedication, talent, and work ethic it takes to pull off an episode like this - where Elena or Katherine is in almost every scene - is undeniable.' - Zap2It Again, can we get a round of applause for Dobrev? She's my hero - Zap2It I'm starting to worry about her mental state. Nobody should be able to slip between characters that easily... Incredible- Zap2It 'This week's MVP is obvious -- Dobrev probably didn't sleep a wink for all eight days of shooting, and we love her for it.' - Zap2It Elena is, as always, smarter and sneakier than those around her (including the viewers) give her credit for. She's not a passive ingenue. - Zap2It 'It was great to see The Dobrev face off against The Dobrev. I love her as Elena, but as Katherine she's really showing me something.' - GMMR Nina Dobrev is doing a fantastic job with these two characters this season and making it totally believable that these are completely different people. - TVOverMind The two come face to face for the first time, nicely showing off the differences in Dobrev's performances. - LA Times This episode would have crumbled if put in lesser hands than Nina Dobrev’s - Crissy Calhoun She gives us two distinct performances that make Memory Lane a contender in my mind for one of the best episodes - Crissy Calhoun Nina "kicked ass" - Crissy Calhoun "I am who I am, and I don’t want to change, or do anything except feel fresh and happy" - Nina Nina's sweet charm and outgoing nature have helped her become the most sought-after starlets of the moment - Portrait She has found her way into our hearts with her down-to-earth nature and humbleness. - Portrait “Every morning, I think to myself, ‘This is so cool. I’m so lucky.’ I don’t want to let it slip away...I’m in such a great position. I live a lovely life" - Nina "The acting (particularly Nina Dobrev's execution of dual roles) deserves a standing ovation" - TWOP On successful books: "I start off by thinking of a heroine...a strong-minded girl like Elena." -LJ Smith Last edited by arakha; 04-25-2011 at 01:14 AM |

So...my theory on this that will prob NOT be true but just something I was thinking about: I feel like they are 'getting rid' or going to kill most of the family she has...that way if and when Elena turns into a vampire in the future of the show it won't be seen as selfish or have that 'Bella-effect' to it (how she kind of just left her parents to become a vamp). Like i said not saying this is likely but it's my theory on it

So... if Elena isn't already traumatised with the happenings in Mystic Falls, I'm willing to bet money that her vampire birth mother setting herself on fire in front of her will send her on the way... __________________
