My Favorite Character in The Twilight Saga New Moon Film

Later tonight, I will be watching the twin bill of Twilight and New Moon at the Lido Theatre, organized by the wonderful Twilight Singapore
Curiously enough, the performance I am most looking forward to is not from any of the Twilight stars, but, from the newly introduced character of Aro of the Volturi, played brilliantly by RADA trained and BAFTA nominee Michael Sheen, whose mixture of civility, savagery and insanity is just astounding.

I also liked the scene where Aro got Jane to try her powers on Bella, and when Bella wasn’t affected and Aro laughed had me in stitches. Perfectly portrayed by Michael Sheen, far cry from his character in underworld, tho both great performances.

I loved aro! I wasnt sure
if I was going to like his performance
cause in my mind aro was always Johnny Depp XD I had the character so clear in my mind.
But I loved michael! he was great, just how i pictured.
I also love alice so much, i think ash is so perfect for it! (love her since the 1st movie)

That is so strange you said Michael, Lorna! As the page was loading, I was thinking of what I would write about his wonderful performance. He was hands down the best actor/tress in the whole film. I was pleasantly surprised. Aro rocks!

me too, Aro’s the best. very well played by Mr. Sheen.

Sorry, guys… although i have to agree with all of you. But i liked the way that Kristen played Bella, and Robert played Edward. I can’t explain really, but I like how they ‘became’ Bella/Edward. Like i said, I can’t explain…
But Aro was pretty great as well as Alice (who is awesome!).
Thanks, Lorna!
PS: That’s the Twilight Marathon, right? Have fun!

Just saw the movie and I have to say that you’re right Lorna. Aro is creepy and I can’t explain it. There’s something about Aro. Awesome movie btw however I was very disappointed at how they ended it. I stayed seated until the credits rolled STILL waiting for the ‘punchline’ line. And what’s with the “I love you Jacob but I don’t want to choose” thing? Anyways, awesome movie and way better than Twilight movie
