Jasper's Twilight Tuesday Fame

[kira kira fuwa fuwa]

I am a little bit not happy with the guy that plays Jasper. His voice is a little off to me; I don't like that guy's voice. Also, he was all, "I want to keep Jasper's power down to a low level, I want him to be more realistic. I want to steer around it and not really use the power, I am not really going to act out his power very much blah blah." What? I mean, um, Jasper isn't very big in Twilight; and if they take out the main part that makes him important in Twilight; I mean, um- What? Whyyy? :
I'm a little disappointed, but don't get me wrong; I'm still excited and hyper about the movie.

Twilight Tuesday: Jasper Cullen

So what do you think of:
The actor?
The hair?
The accent? (both; the actor's and Jasper's)
The powers?
This Twilight Tuesday?

I think it would become more effective for his powers to stay suttle. We, as the readers, already know what he can do, but if he's just doing it in his mind and not really acting as if he is, then no one else will realize it for awhile. I think he's just saying that he doesn't want to do it in an obvious way such as in Star Wars where the jedis just kinda wave their hand over the other person's face and say "you don't want to..." and they do it. It's cool, but corny after awhile. Besides, he's a vampire who's trying to be inconspicuous. Obviously if he walks into a room and the whole crowd all of a sudden feels a lot happier or calmer... That might peak a few people's curiosities.

I'm sure the actor will do fine.
I have no idea why people would have problems with his hair...
I would think he would have a southern accent but I haven't paid closely enough attention to protest against it if he doesn't sound like he is from the south.
I've already explained how I feel about the powers on the paragraph above.
I don't watch MTV.

i read the interview, && i think he has a point.
btw, i was born && raised in Texas, so it might be because i hear the accent so often that i'm used to it, but i can't really tell he has one.

Jasper's gift has always been discribed as being rather subtle. It's not like he does all these crazy arm motions and says phrases. He does it all in his mind, you can't really act that out, it would just look like he was staring at whoever he was manipulating (he doesn't even need to stare . . . ), so I cannot find a problem with him not acting it out, because there's really nothing to act.

I quite like Jackson Rathbone. I think he was a good casting call, and I really liked what he had to say in that interview. He's quite intellegent and brought up a lot of good points I had never considered myself. And so that bumped him up quite a bit in my books.

His hair is fine. I can completely see Jasper's hair looking something like that. I thought it looked a little bit too much like it belonged on That 70s Show, but I've accepted it now. It looks good.
I never actually noticed he had an accent . . . But it would make sence that Jasper would have a little bit of a Southern twang. Of course he would loose most of it, but there would still be that subtle twang to some of his words (Like Carlisle's faint Brittish accent).

I can't say I follow Twilight Tuesday too closely. I check up on it now and then, but because I cannot view the videos from my lovel location here in Canada, it looses a lot of it's appeal . . . They should really make it more available, it's hardly fair.

Overall, I am please with the choice of Jackson Rathbone. He gets the Tanis seal of approval!
