To follow up with last night article I give you this from SciFi Wire


Twilight's Edward Speaks!

Robert Pattinson, who stars as the century-old vampire Edward Cullen in the upcoming big-screen adaptation of Twilight, told SCI FI Wire that he didn't feel beholden to any previous depictions or interpretations of vampires and explained that he chose to play Edward more as a diseased human than an otherworldly bloodsucker.

"It's funny, some people talk about vampires, and there have been encyclopedic amounts of fiction about it, but some people forget that they're a fictional creature," Pattinson said in an interview. "So they think behavioral traits are standard in portraying a vampire. I kind of abandoned everything and saw it as, I guess, being a disease. There's nothing really positive about being a vampire."

Pattinson (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) thought of Edward as a 17-year-old boy, the age at which the character was turned. It's also the age of Edward's human girlfriend, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart), whom he engages in a risky relationship.

As I like to remind anyone who reads this journal is that I have no particular fondness of Twilight in any form but I do v a softspot for Robert...Er wait that's not what I was going to say. What I was going to say was that this is a journal for anything vampire-related. Although despite the fact that the Twilight -vamps and not vampire in any shape or form I'll post whatever I please and....well Robert amuses me.
