User blog comment:Mrs.CullenFOREVER/ROBERT PATTINSON DISSES HIS TWILIGHT FANS??!!/@comment-7600752-20130901204454

I like Robert P. just fine...but I don't consider myself a fan. But I do think what he said makes sense. He honestly doesn't understand why people are so caught up in Twilight and stay glued to their computers debating every aspect of it. It makes perfect sense.

From what I've heard and read....Pattinson thought the entire idea of Twilight somewhat silly. I saw him in an interview where he said that whenever he read Twilight he felt freaked out because he realized that he was actually reading Meyer's fantasy world and considered her quite mad (crazy).

I think that's why Rob is pushing so hard to play Edward's counterpart, Christian Grey, for the movie, Shades of Gray. It's a character quite different from Edward...who sadistcally beats and punishes Anna (the Bella Character). I think he's actually wanting this part to help distance himself from Edward. I believe if Robert could go back in time, he possiblly would choose NOT to play the part of Edward. He's never liked that particular role and has not kept it a secret.
