Edward, although after reading new moon again I almost switched sides. almost..

Tara said...

Ugg. I don't even begin to understand the fascination with Jacob! :) Can't wait for the show this week.

Kristin J. D. said...

Um, Edward, Edward, Edward, and lastly Edward! From books 1-4, he was my one and only ...

Cody and Kylie said...

Edward, but i waiver every once in a while. Its a very tough decision. If I went solely off of the people that played them in the movie, I would lean more Jacob. And because of the life Bella could have had with Jacob, I have a hard time siding against him. He has such good intensions. :) TORN!!! But ulitmately, Edward.

monica said...

lets be honest. i would take either.

i cant wait for the movie!

Cranberryfries said...

In the books Edward, in the movie Jacob. As my friends say, "Why Choose" :)

Olivia Carter said...

Lindsey- I'm almost done reading it & it is REALLY the one that made me waver. I wanted to like HIGHLIGHT parts to be like, "See! Her own personal SUNSHINE!"

Tara- Really?!? That's so funny. You don't want to get me started. I can make a good argument. We should chat sometime! HA!

Kristin- HA! I love it!

Susan- Oh no! I almost just wet my pants! Did you just call jacon a biatch?!?! Oh no.... oh no... SO FUNNY!

Kylie- I hear you sister... exactly how I feel though I might just be a hair to the Jacob side. I gotta be honest.

Monica- Oh my goodness... again... dying laughing! Because, really you are right!

Debbie- Yeah, I can see that... I might ACTUALLY be MORE swayed by 'movie Edward' than 'book Edward'. And, amen to "why choose?"

Leah said...

Hi Olivia!

1. I know it's been a long time (man, is it almost 10 years already?), but I've been reading your blog and thought I'd chime in on this subject. Obviously, y'all are nuts. In the second book, it's all Jacob, all the way. Love Edward, don't get me wrong, but in this instance, it's gotta be Jacob!

2. Love your blog. LOVE IT! I'm so glad to see that you're doing so fabulously. You're family seems absolutely spectacular. I hope you're enjoying the West as much as I am (I'm in California now)!

Maybe I'll see you at a reunion sometime?

Leah Zuckerman (Halpert) :D

Katie said...

Edward, because I married my Edward.

Katie said...

And thanks for the link to the extra Oprah interview - didn't see that one!

Audra said...

I am sort of the book Edward, movie Jacob type person. But when it comes down to it I have to be Edward, the Edward in my head is a lot hotter than Robert.(if we extended it to other teams, I am also team Jasper)

Joan said...

Hi, blog friend (ps & fyi...if you comment on my blog--oh, how I love commenters--then you are officially deemed my "blog friend.") How much do I love that you have Twi posts!? Best thing ever.
How ADORABLE are these Entertainment photo outtakes?! LOVE these three.
Okay, so in answer to your question: My heart says Edward, my mind says Jacob. In other words: EDWARRRDDD!!!

Anne said...

Hey Olivia! So, I love reading your blog, and I get so many great ideas from you! Your family is absolutely beautiful, and it looks like y'all are seriously enjoying life:)

Anywho, I definitely have to weigh in on this question, haha, cuz I was a bit obsessed with the books myself...:)

Originally, I was an Edward fan. However, after some serious consideration (because obviously this is a matter which deserves serious consideration;), I have changed my mind. Edward is way too controlling for my liking. He doesn't give Bella any say in the matter. He thinks this is the best thing for her, but he doesn't even talk with her about it (stupid boy thing to do). I'm sorry, but if I were Bella, there ain't no way I'm taking him back. I'm not a huge fan of Jacob either (though the actor is definitely incredibly HOT, way hotter than Edward...), however he is there for her when she needs him. Unlike Edward...

haha, that was a lot, sorry! I can't wait to see the movie though!!!:)

Lyric said...

I haven't read the books, so I 100% do not deserve to be in the poll. I can say that strictly off of what I saw in the first movie, and the previews for the second...I feel like a Jacob fan all the way.

Olivia Carter said...

Leah- Oh my goodness! It's been SO LONG! How the heck are you? Glad to hear there's another Jacob fan willing to stand up. Thanks for stopping by- I love to see your FB status updates & congrats on the marriage!

Katie- Yeah, it's the only one part of the interview I could find. And that's sweet that Chad's your Edward!

Audra- That's true. Edward looks different to everyone it's funny. He's gold eyed & bronze haired but I see him dark haired and brown eyed (maybe like my hubby)

Joan- Totally blog friends! And they are adorable pictures. Can't wait for the movie!

Anne- I am SO WITH YOU! That scene in Eclipse where he takes out a part of her car so she can't go anywhere I was like, "Oh no he didn't" That kind of sealed my WAY TOO CONTROLLING Edward fate.

Lyric- Oh man, you gotta read the books. I'll bet you'd like them. They are strangely universally liked. Thanks for the imput!

Susan said...

Can I just say that, (gasp!) I almost stopped reading the twilight series after New Moon. I hated that book so much! I bet if I re-read it though, it wouldn't be so bad. However, having said that, I must say that movie Jacob is HOT HOT HOT! And I agree that he's way better looking than Edward. But, in the books, I had to roll my eyes and gag every time I read, "It's a wolf thing."

Also, I'd rather be a little cold than too hot. "It's a Susan thing." ha ha.

Cindy said...

I think I've decided I'm Team Jacob. I've gone back and forth, but in the end, I think he would have been the best one for her. I would have liked to see her stay human, and I liked the person she was with Jacob. More playful fun relationship, less obsessive, infatuation. I'll stand by that...

p.s. I just looked at your twitter updates and we still LOVE Survivor!! One of my favorite shows!! AND, last weeks show was SO fun to watch! I started out not liking Russel but now I'm TOTALLY rooting for him! He is amazing!! Wish we could be there with you to watch!! I'm so excited for this week!

Esther Noelle said...

Love those pictures of them! Team Edward all the way. Always. :) Love that someone called Jacob a biatch. So funny. :) Can't even wait for the movie!!!

Princess Mommy said...

Hands down Edward.

dede said...

yeah its always been Edward...but I have to admit that Jacob did work for the for this new movie, which swayed me just a tad.

Em and Russ said...

Go Jacob!!!! Bella needs a little less drama in her life, and a little more fun. Jacob has a real personality and Edward is just handsome and brooding. Wish I could see the premier with you guys! It was so much fun last year.

April Carter said...

I am with Em. I wouldn't want to be cold all the time, plus Jacob can change when he wants to, whereas Edwardo has to always be a Vampire. But I guess in the end Edward turns out ok. Just in the book, his chisled jaw made me crazy!

Elise said...

Edward is totally winning!!! hahaha!!!

Susan said...

For real, girls. Just cover up with an electric blanket. I mean, if you're hot, there is only so much you can do about that...

GO EDWARD! :)
