I Predict a Clusterfuck of Epic Proportions

This weekend, the lovely Bill Condon's partner tweeted pictures of the Breaking Dawn calendar.

After dousing my eyes with bleach, I got to thinking. What an appropriate time to launch into a tirade about my frustrations with the costume/hair/makeup departments on these films... there's one little word that I believe in, that apparently Scummit have no concept of: 

CONTINUITY is consistency of the characteristics of persons, plot, objects, places and events seen by the reader or viewer over some period of time. source

Let's take a look at Edward:


Twilight Edward. The original. Pale, polished, oozes sex appeal.

Cut to Breaking Dawn Edward:


Oh dear. For a start, he seems to have broken his nose in the first picture. I get that these shots are taken in a red light, but really, Scummit? I'm glad I've  seen  heard about certain leaked and pap pics that show it may not be as bad as this in the actual film.

Let's move on to the other Cullens, shall we?

Twilight Jasper - the best Jasper hair, I believe. (Although I know a certain someone who may disagree)

At this point I feel the need to remind everyone that these are VAMPIRES. Immortal beings who never age, and never change. I can't remember if it's the books or the fan fiction, but I'm fairly sure I read somewhere that their hair doesn't grow...

So how exactly can we explain this then?


Yeah, yeah. He's hot. He looks more like Jackson (especially with the jewelry). But he's NOT THE SAME as he was. Let's not go into the differences between all four Jaspers, we could be here all night.

Now, there are at least a couple of examples of Cullens who look good. Take Emmett:


Not too bad, huh? Looks like he wants to take his shirt off and arm-wrestle Bella at any second, yes?

And Rosalie:


This is the first Rosalie look I've liked. Let's not dwell on the New Moon wig or the Eclipse eyebrows. She looks pretty here.

Alice:


Firstly, THEY GOT RID OF THE CHOKER! Hurrah! It's not 1996, after all. I'm not sure I dig the shorter hair, but she'll pass.

OK, I've saved the best/worst/biggest train wreck until last.

Dr Carslile Cullen. Remember when we first fell in love with Dr McVampy? *sigh*


And now look at this monstrosity. It's such a shame, Peter Facinelli is so hot in real life!


So, we've got a square face, transvestite lips, and fuckawful hair. Not exactly Dr McHottie, right?

I'm horrified. I'm just hoping the sex scenes will blow  me  my mind so much I won't notice the hair. 

Twilight = making hot actors fugly since 2008

Agree? Disagree? Thoughts in the comments please....
