Twilight Vs. New Moon


Thanks to NMM.org here is a beautiful comparison chart of the look of the main characters from Catherine Hardwicke directed Twilight (1st, 3rd column) and Chris Weitz directed New Moon (2nd, 4th column). The differences are stunning when you see them side by side. Here at TB.net we are digging the Chris Weitz take on the characters, however, Twilight still brought the goods to the table. Your vote Twis?

  1. Sorry to say but i think the new director just isnt doing the better job. They should never have let Cathrine Hardwick go. I mean, Edward doesnt even look like Edward anymore!

  5. Victoria looks more like she was described in the books, her hair a more fiery red now instead of so orange-y. Laurent looks like he spent time with the Denalis because he looks slightly more peaceful, although he has the red eyes. Esme has the more rounded face now as she had in the books, Bella looks older which goes along with her desire to become a vamp, Edward looks more like a person and not the monster he thinks he is, Jacob looks perfect, older and muscular, I wish Alice's hair had stayed the same pixie-ish cut as in Twilight, Rosalie has the I am gorgeous attitude from the books, Jasper ooks more like a vamp now than before, Emmett still looks the same and Carlisle looks more like a doctor now and less like a vamp. I think it's great!!

  6. I think new moon is going to be 10 times better. I love all the books but I think Chris Weitz is following the book better. The characters seem more like how they sounded from the book now.
    I love it! especially Jacob and Edward.

  11. While I like the colour treatments on the new photographs, and I don't have any issues with Alice's hair, I think they've nailed her dress style even more too. I don't like the way the photographer shot them. Rosalie looks horrible in the new shot, Jacob looks all t-shirt with the top of his head cut off.

    While Victoria's new hair is more the colour it says in the book, to change it seems odd - why would a vampire dye her hair? And though I love the new cut of Esme - vampires hair doesn't grow, so it better not be long again for Eclipse!!

    The only thing I don't like about the new photos is the red eye-liner on the vamps.

  12. I really liked the movie Twilight. The story, and the actors...it's like they were chosen especially for teenagers.

  13. I think chris is doing a much better job than cathrine hardwicke did. The way he created the characters mathes much better to the way i imagined them when reading the books.

  14. So much better! They actually look real!

  15. I think some of them looked better in Twilight, but Viktoria and Jacob look better in New Moon...

    ReplyDelete
  16. tbh, I think that most of the characters looked better in Twilight... as far as I can tell, it seems like they lost some of their "natural beauty" in New Moon.

  17. Catherine Hardwicke did a SHITTY job. SHe RUINED Twilight. Off the bat, New Moon will be 100% better than THAT crap they tried to sell us with her in charge.

  18. Wowo i think they look much better. and for the person that said they look evil...well they are vampires.
    and i think the first photos looked way to fake and dark these ones are still dark but there no big shadows and they look more realistic. like seriosly look at the photo of edward compared to the new moon one is a huge difference it actually looks like a real photo.
    Oh and they didn't replace kathrine she didn't want to do new moon. she had her fun in twilight did a great job i think but her photo were dodgey.

  19. Well, maybe I'm gonna wait 4 d' film.... to see who's better...

    ReplyDelete
  20. I love the new looks! Much more realistic and much more intimidating looking... I mean they are vampires! They're supposed to be scary! But still beautiful!

  21. I think Twilight wins. When it's going to be included in the TV contents, the audience numbers will go very high, I'm sure!

  22. Am I the only one that's legitimately dissapointed that they canged Jaspers hair? It looks terrible now.

    ReplyDelete
  23. i will love both movies but i think this one looks creapier, which is wat the second book is! i love there looks tho... the only one i dont like too much is alices hair... its not pixie anymore... but they all look great to me.. i think the lil more color that they added really fits for pics so the movie should be great

  24. The new Alice looks just like Brook from One tree Hill!! Not some much like a Vampire!! And the old Rosalie and the old Emmett were better!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. THEY LOOK MORE TANNED!!!
    Edward doesnt look like Edward....
    Bella looks like she has too much make-up on
    and what the hell have they done to Alice's hair!??!
    WTF?
    but all the other characters look better

    ReplyDelete
  26. I really like the old looks. I mean, Bella looks to pretty, & with Make-Up to be an Average, Tom Boy!

  27. I prefer the new ones but i dont think are white enough they all have a similar tan too jacob. Bella looks better and they are all a bit more edgy

    ReplyDelete
  28. i think jacob is the only one that look nice the vamps look weird and evil. bella looks weird in the new moon pic soo i think twilight pics are better

    ReplyDelete
  29. I like Edward and Jasper in Twilight a lot better.

  30. I think the new ones are MUCH better. edwaed looks much better in the new pictures, in the first there is too much shadowing used...

    but its used on all of them, far too much.

    The new ones show ore of the angst in rosalie and the pain in jaspers faces. Esme is much softer in her new one which is like her character. Robert is more controlled like his character not angry like the first one. Bella is prettier in the second, and seemingly more like a lamb. ;)

    Alice is better too, more playful :)
    I think Jacob and Emmett dont look better or worse.
    And Carlisle looks better. :)

  31. i like the old edward, victoria, jasper, and alice better. i mean alice would be fine but i cant get past the hair. the red eyeliner is too scary, and they r to tan! does alabaster mean anything???? the others i can live with just ditch the freaky eyeliner, but really, you dont see the cullen the whole movie like the first so the only one i would b worried about eclipse more. the twilight saga needs cathrine back badly.

  32. Catherine botched the entire first movie. The characters look more like they are described in the books. I'm praying Chris doesn't screw up the 2nd movie as badly as Catherine did the 1st. So far, I am very excited to see New Moon.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I think that New Moon is going to be a lot better than Twilight... I think that is was a lot better made. I wish that the director of New Moon would have also done Twilight and the rest for that matter. The only thing I do not like is that I think they made Bella look to good for New Moon. She is not like you would picture her at all by reading the books.

  34. i like the new ones better, they are easier to see, like Laurent is liek hardly noticeable, and Jazz looked plain wierd before.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Jacob looks better 2! Bella looks much older, and in the old one, she looked like 14! now she looks 18!

  36. Cathrine Hardwicke did a good job, But Chris is doing 200% better. I hope he directs Breaking Dawn too :)

  37. If you had the same photographer then you could compare.
    I like the white on the vampires more than the tan. vamps don't like sunlight.
    I like Alice's short hair.
    SIX days and I can tell first hand. got tickets to the midnight show.

  38. I like the new Edward but I think the pictures are taken by another photographer i mean it's not about the director. but, for me i like twilight more, no offense, new moon's good (i've watched it 4 times) but i think there's something about a girl director that makes it more "girly" or more good for me.

  39. I like the new ones better, except their eyes.
    the vampire eyes they have in the new movie are not as subtle as the old ones. other than that chris did a MUCH better job.

    new moons gunna be better anyways..
    less edward and more jacob ;]

  40. I dont like how they are all so tan! Also, Rose and Esme just look way too different. Not that its bad, but vampires arent supposed to be able to change, and they did-big time. Everything else was good. Love Victorias new hair. Its more of the way I imagined. Team Edward

  41. I think New moon is better except Esme(she looks not as cute as should be), Alice (the hair just doesn't fit) and Edward (he looks 2 old)
