that ugly little guy. They are just young.
-
I'm a guy and I see it. There's something about him. Something interesting, something mysterious. Has a strong jawline and he looks pretty too.
-
He's cute..but i'm not obsessed.
-
It really isn't anything but his character. Every girl, especially teens, tend to fall in love with an actor's character in movies. I have read the series and watched the movie. I however, like Jacob's character better. :o)
-
He's got that same joie de vivre that Elvis Presley did when he was young. [A lot of] women just gravitate toward him like a magnet. In my opinion, he is cute, and the chemistry that he has with Kristen Stewart on screen reminds me of that searing heat that I feel for my husband.
-
He's loving, protective, and has a nice body. What else can you want?
-
He's just hot. I like the movie because I felt that heat once. (and after twenty years of being married to him, I still do ;)
-
I don't even know.. :/

Well, there's the fact that he stalks Bella. That's always a plus, if your man stalks you within the first week he meets you. Then we have how he's always freezing cold. Useful in the summer. Since they live in Washington. He could lash out on her at any second, the suspense and risk is incredibly romantic somehow. He's also strikingly beautiful. Meyer never uses the word "hot", like most 16 or 17-year-olds (does it even say how old she is? Damn.) would say. So, what, he's got that going for him? Nahh. I don't really see it. Well, I did. Long ago... *sigh* I just don't want to be considered a 13-year-old fan girl anymore. Believe me, if you say you like Twilight, it is automatically assumed that you are a 13-year-old fangirl. The book is not good. The movie is not good. It took me a long time to realize it.

i am a girl and i personally HATE him, but i think its becuase how strong and protective he is. i dont want a guy stronger then me, i really hav eno intreste in feeling weak. plus he is a vampire and in many opinions he is hot.[not in mine]
-
i've been wondering the same thing. i'm more of a jacob girl cause he is 1) way sexier and 2) closer to my age
-
cause hes gay and women want what they cant have. ive never seen twilight but i hear its pretty horrific. vampires walking around in the middle of the day???? sounds stupid to me.
-
I honestly don't think he is so HOT... he is alright looking, but not hot. The only time I thought he looked good was in the movie, and that took about an hour for him to look good in the big screen (i thought he was ugly lol). And even looking at him in regular everyday look... still not all that great. So... to me, he is nothing special.
-
He is romantic and mysterious. Women love that.=)
-
he's Gorgeous!!! duuurr! he is also a REAL nice guy
-
Both genders love a fantasy. The kind of fantasy is just very different.
-
he's a vampire
-
defo good looking look at his other films!
-
The character or the actor that plays Edward? If it's the actor, he's a gorgeous guy with a great smile and mysterious eyes. The character, he's caring, loving, protective, mysterious, and gorgeous. I myself am not obsessed about him.
-
Because tey are brain washed, just like the whoooole world, who adore and are obssesed with famouse people.. Hello, I can't understand why. I consider them as psicos..
-
OH MY GOD I HATE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont me to sound mean but god i see his stuiped picture everywhere on folders binders eveywhere!! Hes ugly. ps im a girl
-
I'm not sure. I always thought the relationship between him and Bella was unrealistic and encourages women to be needy and dependent. Maybe girls like being weak and frail... so much for feminism.
-
His eyes are so very sexy
-
Same reason teens have been obsessed with one or another teen idol since mass media and like any other trend its the in thing to like Edward Cullen, therefore like him or not most young girls will do the in thing.
-
Well I thought they'd be afraid that Edward was gonna bite them.
-
im not sure...jsut how he acts in the movie maybe...when i first saw him i thought he was ugly. it wasnt until i saw the movie that i liked hime better.
-
As you've noticed, Meyer's audience is predominantly comprised of teen girls. Since they're not old enough to go out on their own and form adult relationships, Edward is an appealing alternative--he's a young, sexy guy, but he also acts as a sort of guardian for Bella. Of course, there is a dark side to Edward's protectiveness over Bella. He treats her in a very possessive, even stalkerish way (i.e. watching her sleep). I can see why Edward might appeal to a 14-year-old, but as an adult, I saw him as a controlling boyfriend in the making.
-
Because he's lucky to get that role and become famous. He's not good looking or sexy for me ..I'm 40 Y/O though hahhahahahha
-
Because they are idiots, really. Anyone with half a brain can tell that he is an abusive boyfriend in the making. 1: He follows Bella everywhere 2: He breaks into her house and watches her sleep 3: He has his siblings "watch" her when he can't 4: He won't let her make her own decisions 5: He trivializes her opinions and needs 6: He won't let her see her male friends, forcing her to sever ties with them 7: He monopolizes her time
-
He's dead and stiff, ideal boyfriend.
-
my wifes obsessed with edward cullen but not with robert paterson, i guess its the whole vampire erotica thing, a guy that could easily crush her or bella as it may be but chooses not to. strangly she actually thinks robert patterson is ugly so its either the vampire connection or the way he wears his hair when playing edward lol
-
I don't get it... the puppet with the red hair from the Seed of Chuckie movie reminds me of him for some reason.
-
crux of d movie was......gud wins over bad.....love finds its way even in d most impossible situations.....though edward had both gud and bad aspects..of his nature....d gud ones overshadowed d bad ones...moreover a vampire fall in love wid a human...nd d tenderness wid which he considers it..made it all more interesting.....edward deserves popularity for d same...not jus teens..but ppl from all age groups admired him...so do i!!
-
he's good looking and he carries that mysteriousness that girls love so much. also he is protective of bella always looking out for her. He's like the guy we always knew of in school but didn't get the chance to get to know.
-
I have no idea, why?
-
he's always being rescued by bella, so how is she the damsel in distress. i love the storyline. people jus gotta stop looking so deep into it
-
Edward Cullen is the Man(vampire) of my dreams. He is mysterious. He is beautiful. He is so dedicated to the girl he is with that I yearn so much for that connection. He loves Bella so much that it doesnt matter what happens, he will always be there. He is so sure of the love between them. Also, I am a major vampire lover since I was in middle school and I am in my 20's now. When i say "I love Vampires" it isnt a light thing. i truely do. God, Please send me one.
-
I guess girls these days are into extraordinarily bland and emotionless men.
-
one word- Mangina
-
He watches people as they sleep he stalks bella he sparkles in the sun Hmmm yeah not that great i like emmet, and jasper way better plus Robert P. Is kinda ugly <no offence> and doesnt suit real edward in the book
-
Because he is supposed to be so romantic and special and just awesome. I don't quite get it. But oh well. +5
