Well, Hello there! Its me........wait.......you probably have no idea who I am! Oh woe is me! Anyhoo... I found this totally adorable pic of the Cullen family:

Isnt it adorable!!!!!

 Oh, sure, we can people the Twiverse with the Perfect Cast (according to our personal preferences and specifications) and we do. Often.

But what about the Anti-Cast?  The actors that should on NO ACCOUNT be allowed to play these roles, ever?

It's Jack Nicholson's 73rd birthday today.  Even in his heyday, I would never have wanted him to play, oh, CARLISLE CULLEN.  

On the other hand...  Hmmm... Might he have brought a whole new skew to the role?  Mwahahha!

"I'm afraid you're going to have to make a choice."   Carlisle Cullen  Twilight, chapter 19

So! Who is on your Anti-Cast?  The most NO WAY ON THIS PLANET Edward?  The Don't Even THINK About It ALICE?

ETA: Yeah, I know Nicholson's too old right now, but this is all a mind-game anyway, right? :) 

Am I getting annoying? I'm sorry!! You guys all gave me really good stories and I read all of them, but now I NEED more (wow.....i sound like an addict)!Can you give more stories? Please? Lets recap:

I want a story where Bella has really cool powers or is one of the supernatural (witch, goddess, angel, feind, fairy,etc.), or where shes a werewolf.

I also love Emmett so any story with him is pretty awsome. But the super stories dont have to be Em/B.

It cant be AH though cause I dont do that stuff. I mean if its Twilight the vamps arent supposed to be human right? I dont get some people, but I guess its their taste.

Thank you guys!!!

Hi all you people who like getting fic recs. I've got one for you that's just been updated.

I'm going on a field trip with the entire 3rd grade on Friday.    There's a 2 1/2 hour bus trip there and back.    I need a nice LONG completed story to get me through the drive.   A nice "Calgon take me away" story.    Hit me with your best shot.   I need some recs!

PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS pic that just surfaced.

So, there's been campfires about who you'd like to play different characters from Twi before. There's been a campfire or two about what fanfics you'd like to see turned into movies. Now, I'm asking you this:

Pick one fanfic. Only one. That would would like to see turned into a film. Now that you've picked one, I want you to CAST it too. And to tell me WHY you picked that fanfic.

So please, humor me with this because I am very bored and am running out of reasons not to write. I'm interested in what everyone's picks would be - fanfic and actor wise. Plus I even went and made the post all pretty with different colors, not to mention the pretty below.

FYT:

Umm...Hi, Campers!

So, I write some fic. Kinda underground, cult/indie type stuff you prolly haven't heard of. This is my first campfire and I'm nervous - sweaty palmed and heart beating like a hummingbird - so, be gentle? I am a virgin, after all.

I've noticed a lot of differing opinions from the lovely ladies on this site, and I wanted to pose a coupla q's:

1. Do you tend to search for fic or wait for it to be recommended to you? Either way, will a summary deter you from reading or will you give a fic a shot 'just to see'? Also, does it hinder you from reading if the story has a low review count?

2. My writing stems from life experiences...and I don't shy away from this fact. Does knowing too much about an author turn you off to their writing? Or does it draw you in more and make the reading experience more interactive? Does 'knowing' a writer outside of the direct FFN 'bubble' wear down the third wall and make you have less respect for them?

Anyhoo...that's all I have.

Thanks!

I can't remember if we have had a campfire about this or not. If so, I can't find it.

Who has read these? Are they any good? Seems like fun, campy, vampire smut. Good? Bad? The vampire porn you hoped Breaking Dawn would be? 

 you guys should really check out this new moon video it really hIts you to the core..

CHECK IT OUT CHECK IT OUT CHECK IT OUT CHECK IT OUT CHECK IT OUT 

So I was looking around some of my favorite random websites... you know, cuteboyswithcats.tumblr.com, thisisphotobomb.com. I got to awkwardfamilyphotos and...

TELL ME THIS DOES NOT LOOK LIKE BABBY ROB.

To make this interactive:

Have you ever seen a doppleganger for any of the Twilight cast? Like a celebrity or a person at the supermarket? If you have pictures, post them.

I love looking for humourous Twilight spiffs.. art.. manips.. anything to make me laugh.

Anyone have some to share? Here are a few of my favorites.

from the other night when he was out with TOM, Marcus and Bobby. I'd tap that. ;)

IT'S TIME TO SHOW OFF THOSE FAN VIDEOS

DO YOU MAKE FAN VIDEOS?  DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE YOU WANT TO SHARE?  

POST THEM HERE!

FAN FICTION VIDEOS

VIDEOS FROM ANY FANDOM (but let's try to stay somewhat ontopic, eh?)

SHOW US YOUR FAVORITES!

FOR ALL YOU ROB LOVERS OUT THERE...

"Robert Pattinson - In The Beverly Hills" by Vera

ALSO, LET'S DISCUSS DIFFERENT VIDEO DOMAINS TO POST FAN VIDEOS.  YOUTUBE IS AN ASS. WE KNOW THIS... AND UNFORTUNATELY, BAM VID VAULT IS BEING SHUT DOWN. 

SO WHERE ELSE IS THERE?  LETTUCE DISCUSS.

ok, who is this guy?

I've heard of him & his gang of holier-than-thou skeezy losers, and I've also heard that they are the reason why a bunch of our favorite authors got banned from ffnet and made a blog, or a livejournal account, or went over to TWCS with their amazing stories.

So, now i'm apparently being 'targeted'. But isn't t true that he isn't even a site administrator? That he can not dish out this so-called disciplinary action that he has threatened me with in a review? I am not sure what to do, as i was faced with this issue this morning. Do I withdraw my story from ffnet of my own free will, and leave an author's note up as a chapter, explaining what happened and letting people know that they can read my twific at The Writer's Coffee Shop or on my BLOG, or do I just ignore it? Does this Lord Klevin person have any damn clout? Can he get me banned for advertising TWCS in an author's note and for having content not suitable for those under 16yrs old?

What is your advice, cuz I sure as hell don't know what to do and I'm a little more than pissed about it.

(First campfire... deep breath)

I don't even remember how or when this started, but it has entertained me endlessly, so I thought I'd share, and maybe get some more great/hilarious ideas for recasting.

Recasting the entire Twilight ensemble in other films that is. 

Because seriously, the idea of a film like The Breakfast Club, but with Kristen, Rob, Jackson, etc. just cracks me up.

I would totally have Jackson playing Bender, and have Rob playing Brian.  Kellan as Andrew, Kristen would be Allison, and Billy Burke would be Principal Vernon.

Or how about Glee?

Can you just imagine Forks High School but Glee-style?!  Oh my god, the thought of Bella and Edward bursting into song, a la Rachel and Finn, just cracks me up.  Or how about Rose and Emmett as Quinn and Puck?

And Topgun?  Everything is better with a little bit of 80's cheese right?

I can totally see the Cullen boys talking about MIGs and wearing aviators while playing beach volleyball in supercheese beachwear.

One of my all-time faves, Star Wars.

Or even better, Spaceballs?

C'mon, you know who you want to cast as Yoda.  And I think Jackson would make a perfect Lone Starr. ;)

So tell me, what would love to recast the entire Twilight cast in?  Or what casting changes would you make to the ones I listed?

For your time:

Because it's one of the prettiest photoshoots evah. :)

I stole this idea from edwardville  donut judge me

this was approved by wtvoc. i have the gchat to prove it.

So, I see a lot of chatter on twitter, on reviews, on messageboards, etc, about how certain things/phrases/whatnot have become cliche. I.e..  Mushroom ravioli, Jeff Buckley, cores, chocolate orbs, Darlin', etc, etc, etc. (Yes, some of these are not in the "real" books).

But the question I have is where do you draw the line between canon and cliche? I mean, this is fan fiction, and we're writing based on certain aspects of the books we love.

Personally, I expect a certain about of similarities and borrowing from the books. And certain things/phrases/characteristics lend themselves to multiple scenarios, so it doesn't surprise me when I see it. 

What do you think? Shouldn't there be some holdovers from the "real" series? What do you often read that really is unecessary borrowing? Where do you draw the line? What things do you expect to read in your fan fiction and what things are you bored with seeing?

No fic naming please. 

BTW greeengoldfish wrote an interesting article: TLYDF 

For your time and viewing pleasure.... a fuzzy but ultra sexy shot of Rob in glasses (and I do not care if it's chopped/real/whatever). Unf.

And what?  He´s gonna say - OH BITS I GAVE YOU CHANCE TO SAY NO ITS OVAH NOW!  .. rape much?

Am i wrong?
