twilight tuesday!

hello all...or none...i'm still not really sure if anyone actually reads this or not...but it doesnt really matter cause it gives me something to do on the train...but if you are reading dont be afraid to comment...let me know what you think or if you have any suggestions for future topics...thanks in advance...

so to celebrate twilight tuesday i want to talk about tayor lautner...he plays bella's bff jacob black in the movie (only 3 more days!!! get excited!!!)...while i do think he is a cute kid i'm not here to talk about how hot he is or anything like that...to me he will always be the kid from cheaper by the dozen who takes sally (from mikes super short show) on a date to the movies...so yeah i'm like an old lady in comparison...lol...anyway i'll be moving on now...there seems to be many people out there who are concerned about taylor playing jacob in the rest of the movies...not becuase of the actor but becuase of the character...i must admit that i had my doubts at first too but now i think he will make an awesome jacob in all the movies...and here is why:

1) in new moon jacob grows a good foot in a short amount of time...i think that they were smart in casting a young actor to play jacob in twilight so in the time between filming twilight and new moon he will age (possibly have a growth spurt) and look more like the jacob in new moon...if they were too cast an older actor for the role the chances of him looking exactly the same from movie to movie are much greater...so i have faith that taylor will be able to pull off older jacob no problem...and is it just me or does he already look older and buffer (more buff??...whats the proper way to say that??) compared to how he looked in the movie...so while it is important for the rest of the cast to look the same taylor needs to get older and he obviously is

2) it will be impossible to predict just how tall taylor will actually get but i'm sure the movie people can work their magic and make it look like he is close to 7 feet...in harry potter they make hagrid tower over every one and in real life he isnt nearly as tall as they make him in the movie...i think that looks fine so i'm not too worried about the hight issue...

3)last thing that makes me think taylor is a great jacob is watching him on "my own worst enemy"...he plays the son of the main guy...not really a huge role but in last weeks episode they showed him at some type of martial arts fighting event...i dont know any of the right terms to use here so just bare with me...he was in a match using a long metal stick...i read somewhere that taylor was good at that kind of stuff but WOW after seeing it for myself i was super impressed...that was the moment when i said "yeah...he is def our jacob black"...i was sold and from that moment on theere hasnt been a doubt in my mind that taylor is going to be an AWESOME jacob in twilight and the rest of the saga!!!

alrighty thats all for now...if i'm going to continue to have twilight tuesdays maybe i'll have themes for the rest of the days of the week...any suggestions...
