Robert Pattinson: Edward Cullen is a Weird Axe Murderer!
Robert Pattinson doesn't understand all the fuss fans make over him. The actor somehow does not consider himself good looking.
But at least he's a nice, kind-hearted individual.
This is a stark contrast to the character he plays in the Twilight Saga, as Pattinson told Britain's OK! that he truly can't fathom the appeal of Edward Cullen.
“With virtually anyone, the nice guys always seem to come last. You always get weirdos like Edward who seem to attract women for some reason," the actor said. “If Edward wasn’t a fictional character and you met him in reality, he is like one of those guys who would probably be an axe murderer or something.”
Apparently the fact that a vampire wouldn't be a fictional character isn't frightening enough.
As for the attention he's garnered, Pattinson countered claims that he's afraid of fans.
“I had no idea people could get so obsessed. But it’s not scary - it’s amazing. People just project their idea of my character on to me and they just seem to assume that I’m the same, when in reality I’m not.”
Is Robert out of line in dissing Edward in such a manner? We know he plays a vampire, but is it really a good idea to bite the hand that feeds you?

You can flame me all you like for this, but I 100% agree with Robert. Haven't you guys figured out that Edward Cullen is FICTIONAL, and not only that but just creepy too? If anyone other than Edward was watching you sleep for months on end, then you'd be terrified, and would probably file a criminal charge on them. Guys, honestly, learn to type for one, and two - give the guy a break, alright? Not everyone on this planet likes the Twilight series. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. Like Twilight if you want, I'm not saying you have to dislike it, but don't go bashing people for their opinion. It's really good of him to perform the movies for you, don't repay him like this.

Maybe he should have looked up all the Twilight Saga fan sites... Or READ THE EFFING BOOK.
What a douche bag.
Go ahead rag on me, seriously its like the harry potter kidlettes saying Oh I had NO idea... but I'm pretty sure they knew.
How about instead of replacing Victoria we replace Edward?
