Talk:Edward Cullen/@comment-66.138.59.115-20130411003240

I think many fans have trouble indenifying with Edward. This is because we see Edward as ultra-perfection since the stories are told thru Bella’s view. Is Edward sheer perfection? No, but this is how Bella views him, Edward can do no wrong as far as she’s concerned. Is it weird that Edward spies on Bella while she’s sleeping. Yeah, it is.. but we’re judging Edward from a human standpoint, and Edward’s not human. Edward and Bella are obsessed with each other, almost to an unhealthy standpoint. We have to remember that this is just the way Myer wrote these characters. Edward feels a strong need for Bella and vice-versa. Is this an unnatural relationship? Of course it is… Edward is supernatural and it’s fiction for Pete’s sake! But, the saga still entertains and even mesmerizes many fans. Despite the fact that Edward often looks constipated, Robert P. does a fantastic job. I couldn’t imagine trying to play a role such as Edward and still maintain a serious facial expression. I’m just glad that Robert P. grew his eyebrows back in for the majority of the series. I also believe that many viewers see Edward as wishy-washy. I mean, one minute he’ll tell Bella he wants her human and he’ll miss her human feeling and reactions. Then later tell her the polar opposite. That is bothersome, and I can’t explain it either. Edward is just… “Edward.”
