Good call, Fuggers!

I saw this abysmal EW cover while we were out in the Midwest -- I read the article, but left the magazine behind in a hotel room because the cover scared me.  How, how, how, how, how could the editors look at that and say, "YES.  Perfect -- Cedric Diggory, YES!  In this photo you are perfection personified and everyone who looks at you will WANT you and your pasty, grodily* hairy chest."

Eeeeeeewwww!

(Their take on Twilight in general is fab, too -- the similarity to Love You Forever hadn't struck me until just now...  YICK!)

*I don't think that's actually a word, but let's just roll with it, shall we?

Thank you for this! This is a cover that I kept looking at trying to get my eyes to blur over and make this guy good looking. Even without my glasses- it doesn't work! Book or movie- Edward is not my man! Neither is Jacob.

"Grodily hairy" bwahahaha. It's a hilarious Eeeeeeewwww. I wish there were sparklies on the cover, to complete it. Like maybe one on his eyeball, and then his pecs and his jeans.

One thing that cracked me up about the trailer was the fact that Bella actually RODE Edward, like he was some Magic Flying Vampire Ride circus attraction. I love things that are unintentionally hilarious. Between that and the EW cover, I might have to see the movie!!

Things do not bode well at all for this movie. I've seen some behind the scenes footage on the website, and the bad vampires? They're wearing lace ruffs and fur coats and stuff. WRONG. So wrong. And yeah, that cover is grody.

i can't help it. i just don't care- i can't WAIT till the movie comes out. and definitely more than that i can't wait till the next book comes out- all i have to say about that is that she (meyer) better give us something good bc it's been quite a (sometimes tedious) wait!!!
