Regular Men VS Edward Cullen
Digital Spy have the following story:
An Australian film expert has said that the Twilight series sets a new, impossible benchmark for the perfect man.Dr Lisa Bode, an associate lecturer in film at the University of Queensland, says that after reading the books, women are gaining unrealistic expectations of men.
She believes that Robert Pattinson's vampire character Edward Cullen is so perfect that 'regular' guys don't stand a chance with girls.According to the ABC, Bode said: "They're idealising Edward to the point where real men can't compete anymore. It's a kind of performative thing, an empowering gesture."She continued: "If you consider the way that women have had to put up with men's ideals for centuries, and feeling insecure in relation to that, there's perhaps a little bit of revenge coming through.
"Facebook groups such as 'Twilight has ruined any chance I have at a realistic relationship' and 'Because I read Twilight I have unrealistic expectations about men' have recently been launched.

Twilight Director Catherine Hardwicke on "Tortured" Robsten
Since director Catherine Hardwicke is about to finish her crazy-ass ride on the Twilight train, we couldn't pass up an opportunity to chat with the dame director, again.
Why? Because she's friggin' unpredictable, and we effin' love it.
E! Onlines' Ted Casablanca's The Awful Truth Interview with Twilight Director Catherine Hardwicke
Cathy confirms what everyone else in the cast is too scared to say: That Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are not just friends.
Check out our interview with her from Sunday's Teen Choice Awards:
Your poor cast! They've all become insane tabloid targets. Do you pay attention to all the rumors? When I'm in the airport on trips I'll look at the magazines. It's pretty wild. I feel pretty bad for everybody. You wish you could just have a life!
Some aren't exactly rumors though, like Rob and Kristen being more than "good friends." Do you like them as a couple in real life, too?
Of course! I cast them together, so obviously I think they're awesome together. There's no question about that.

Rob & Kristen - The 'Dating' Saga continues...
Socialite Life are reporting on the new article in Life & Style Magazine about 'Robsten' being 'back on'.
"And according to Life & Style, we fans aren't the only ones who've noticed something. Their co-star Nikki Reed, who plays Rosalie Hale, said to Rob during their flight to Vancouver yesterday, "I saw the pictures -- getting in cabs together, going for lunch. I thought you were going to keep it undercover?" This was obviously before Rob whispered to her to keep her voice down."
This particular die hard romantic blogger, whilst wishing to believe all these speculations are true, is still waiting on definitive proof i.e. actual admission from either Rob or Kristen.
