Sorry, but you all have to know this RIGHT AWAY. Thanks to Dylan for just informing me of this on a comment to the last post. I now have a picture and and press release to show all of you. Cedric Diggory (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire–keep up) has just been cast as Edward in the film version of Twilight!!! Let the fantasizing begin!!

He is lovely.
And he’s only six years younger than me, so I won’t feel guilty for swooning.
December 11th, 2007 at 8:53 pm
lol how old is he?
December 11th, 2007 at 8:53 pm
Or not…I read the wrong article.
Dang. That hurts.
December 11th, 2007 at 8:54 pm
Stupid internet.

Aw man, I got all excited. I thought you were talking about a different Swoon: http://www.flickr.com/groups/swoon/pool/

Interesting… I think that works for me.

Totally excited about this news, so thanks, Dylan! I loved Twilight, and I’m trying to get Katie Sis to finish the book. C’mon, Katie, you’ve already read DH. I was the one at my friend’s most recent Harry Potter party (celebrating the DH release) to sport a T-shirt reading “Support Cedric Diggory” and featuring Robert’s beautiful self. He will be quite gorgeous enough for Edward, and I think he’ll have the acting ability as well.

Maybe I need to clarify in this whole age discussion: the part of me who swoons at cute teenage (or twenty-one-year-old) boys is the 15-year-old in me who swooned at Twilight to begin with. My teenage self and I are very close friends, and I am not embarrassed to think and act like her as much as I do.
I mean, come on–it’s not like I think I’m going to marry him. Because obviously I’m going to marry someone my own age, like Colin Firth.

oh I am drooling!

“I mean, come on–it’s not like I think I’m going to marry him. Because obviously I’m going to marry someone my own age, like Colin Firth.”
Heh. I’m so with you there.
I think Robert will actually make a good Edward. That’s assuming, though, that the script is even worthwhile. Here’s crossing my fingers.

I think I have to read the books. Sounds like he might be as hot as me. I mean, it’s fiction, so it’s possible that he could be as hot as I am.
December 12th, 2007 at 10:57 am
Edward’s definitely hotter than hot. He’s one of those incredibly perfect-looking demi-god men that no one can even touch. Except Bella gets to.
And Robin, no explanation needed! I think most of us, with the exception of Dylan and a handful of others, are also a bit beyond Robert’s league, so to speak. But we can always look and enjoy what we see!
December 12th, 2007 at 12:03 pm
Read the books Patrick! And he is still a bit beyond my league but I don’t care! lol just add him to the list of boys I swoon over yet can’t have… >_
December 12th, 2007 at 12:04 pm
No Problem Kelly!
December 12th, 2007 at 10:25 pm
Okay, Robin. You get Colin, I get Gerard Butler, and the rest of the ladies can have Patrick.
December 12th, 2007 at 11:50 pm
No offence Patrick but I want James Mcavoy! *swoons*

I hope they don’t butcher the movie. Twilight was unbelievable, and it will be so sad if the movie doesn’t do it justice.
And I know I’m in the minority here, but Robert doesn’t do anything for me. He’s too much of a pretty boy.
Or maybe I’ve been watching too many reruns of A Beautiful Mind and Gladiator and I’ve got Russell Crowe on my mind.
December 13th, 2007 at 5:33 am
Dylan, it’s perfectly acceptable to want a lesser product.
December 13th, 2007 at 10:08 am
Oh Heather..Gerard Butler! He is dreamy! Can we share him?
December 13th, 2007 at 10:44 am
I’ve got to admit, I used to be into the smooth, clean-shaven pretty boys until I met my husband. It’s funny, but meeting him really changed my perceptions of attractiveness. Then again, my husband said to a friend, “I never knew I had a rival until I came home a few days before my wedding to see Alkelda and her mommy bouncing up and down on the bed and saying, ‘Mr Darcy! Mr Darcy!’ while watching the A & E Pride and Prejudice.”

Why is everything in italics? I’m going to post the code for ending italics right now.
December 13th, 2007 at 10:45 am
Did it work?
December 13th, 2007 at 10:46 am
…Yes!!!
December 13th, 2007 at 10:47 am
Looking at Gerard makes me all kinds of dizzy. And to answer your question, Shai, that would be a NO.
I called him first.
December 13th, 2007 at 11:20 am
Gerard is kinda cute…. XD and ok patrick lol
December 13th, 2007 at 12:28 pm
ok Heather, I will let you have him, you called it fair and sqauare! But I will swoon from afar
December 13th, 2007 at 1:27 pm
Alkelda, good work on fixing that! I didn’t even have to lift a finger!
Now I’ll let you ladies get back to fighting over Gerard Butler . . .
