I know this might sound insane!!!!!!!! but I was thinking!!!
Alright .. let’s start from the beginning, you know where some people, or maybe I’m one of them compare the character of Edward Cullen to the Jane Austen hero Mr. Darcy? well… yeah… that’s what I think, he kind of reminds me of Mr. Darcy. Actually while I was reading Twilight, I was thinking of Mark Darcy (from Bridget Jones’s Diary), he completely reminds me of Mark Darcy, which is actually the same of Mr. Darcy !
Alright..so now we all sort of agree that’s Edward is the latter-day-teenage-vampire Mr. Darcy (or Mark Darcy).
Great then!
And who played MR. Darcy and Mark Darcy??… Colin Firth!
so I once was discussing the casting of Twilight and I said “if Twilight was written about 20 years I would totally Cast Colin Firth!”
and yes I meant it… I would totally say Colin is perfect! I mean I know he’s not American (but neither Rob what’s his face is … he’s a brit), but Colin is so perfect for Edward… I saw few pictures for him where he looked younger (and he looked so handsome by the way).
It was just a thought… I know some people might think “how stupid!” …but blame me for that!!!!
anyone else agrees ??

I totaly agree. In fact, I was just conversating with someone about this. Edward is so condisending like Fitzwilliam Darcy, and irritating as well, and yet, you cannot help but be so drawn to him. Meyer does an excellent job at writing her characters. I have to wonder if she was inspired by Pride and Prejudice, as she even alludes to the novel in her novel.
Comment by Lynn December 23, 2008 @ 5:08 amshe was actually inspired. she once said “twilight is based on P&P”.
Comment by Arwen December 23, 2008 @ 8:40 amI don’t see it. Darcy is just pompous. Thats why he acts like an ass. Edward is afraid to be around people to keep them safe. Nothing could be different. Edward is actually very concientuious. Darcy not so much.u
