exactly!its not like him being taller or looking older is going to change the base of the plot. him and bella are still going to hang out all the time, edwards still going to leave, everything will still be the same. yes, he's suppose to be a grown man, but most movie adaptions of books have to leave some things out.like a mentioned before, harry potter is the same thing. harrys eyes are suppose to be green, like his mothers, yet the actor has blue eyes. Did that change the plot of the story? Not at all! In the third movie, it was never mentioned that it was actually harrys father who helped make the map, yet it was still there, and the plot was still the same. I agree that they should take more time on the movie instead of rushing it to get out, but they also have to think how the vampires are not suppose to age. think if they took 2 years between each movie, all the actors that play vampires would look a lot older. In my opinion, i would rather the vampires stay looking younger rather than jacob looking older, seeing as it might be a choice of one or the other. Since the first movie, we all know that edwards been seventeen for "awhile", we (perhaps as people that did not read the book) know he's not going to age. So I think the plot point of vampires staying young is more important than jacob looking older. they can make him look a bit older with subtle make-up, maybe make him look around 19-20, which is better than 16.
too bad im not 'first nation' / 'native american' and i live on the other side of the country . . .
i'd kill to go to that
or he needs to find a way to get to me.
either way, i'm GOING to meet him.. somehow !
