Still on Team Edward?

With the upcoming movie New Moon, I have heard that alot of Team Edward members are switching over to Team Jacob. Is this because Taylor Lautner is lookin' so hot in the trailers and teasers that are out now? I am forever a faithful Team Edward member, but I would love to hear what other Twilight fans are doing. What team are you on, and have you contemplated switching sides?

Robert Pattinson is hotter and sexier than Taylor Lautner. He is irresistible and alluring as ever. I don't find Taylor Lautner amazing in New Moon trailer, he is still the same Jacob I dreaded in Twilight.Nothing has change.

I think Taylor Lautner is hot, and I love the character Jacob, but I am in love with Edward! Nothing can ever change that! Yes, Robert Pattinson is a hottie, even if his hair is dirty and he acts clumsy. He just adds to the entire allure of the Edward character!

I think that anyone who is suddenly switching teams is doing it because they haven't read the books and completely fallen in love with one of the characters. They're switching purely because they think the actor is hotter, lol. Which is fine, it doesn't bother me at all. I personally read the books previous to seeing the movie, and just adored Edward from the start, and was never a huge Jacob fan... so side switching, no matter how good-looking the actor playing the role, just isn't possible for me.

I believe you are right. Perhaps people are switching purely because of the movies, and not because they actually know the characters from the books. I am the same as you, I could never switch sides. Edward is so beautiful, inside and out, and there is no hot actor that could make me change my mind.

LOL... I was on Team Edward when I read Twilight. But when I read New Moon and the rest of the books I switched to Team Jacob. I guess it was the moment Edward hurt Bella in the book and how Jacob was there to comfort her and showed love for her and still showed love for her even till her wedding day that I just admire his strength and showing that his love has no limits. The love that it hurts but still waiting to sacrifice (I think still hoping that she will change her mind). But when I read the intimate moments that Bella has alone with Edward it still brings me goosebumps and I understand and am happy for it. I guess the book would have made me stay on Team Edward if it would have somehow made Jacob happy with a girl.LOL... I know it sounds silly but I just feel his character deserves to be happy and not a wanderer. He serves a great purpose though wasn't given a choice and deserve his Bella after all the protecting he has done for her. Thats just my opinion. So glad I can let that out have no one reading it with me. This is neat.

Haha, I feel the exact same way. More and more people are now Team Jacob just because he got 'hotter' and more buff... I've been on Team Jacob from day 1. I dislike Edward Cullen, but that's just my opinion.. don't be offended! :)

No worries, I could never be offended! I appreciate your honesty, and I truly believe that everyone has the right to like what they like. Jacob is definitely hotter and more buff, and even though I am on Team Edward, I love Jacob too!

I am still a Team Edward person. I don't go for Edward because of his looks (although he is hot) I go for him because he is sort of funny in a strange way, romantic and would do anything for Bella. I think Edward is every woman's ideal man because of the fact that he respects her. Also Edward is sooooooooooooo much more mature than Jacob because he can deal with the fact that Bella is friends with Jacob as well as loving him and accepts that fact. Edward also doesn't seem to make as many snidey remarks about Jacob being a werewolf as Jacob does about Edward being a vampire!!! All in all Edward is pretty much my perfect guy!!!!
