New Moon Gets New Look

This is the new cover for New Moon, courtesy of the second movie in the Twilight series. Sooo...Jacob looks pretty hot. But seriously, did they even read the book? That pose is way too intimate for their friendship (even if Jacob wants to be more than friends). In my humble opinion, the follwing movie poster would have made for a better, more accurate cover:



Jacob trying to protect Bella from her obsession with Edward. That's more like it. Gee, wish someone would protect me from my obsession with Edward.


p.s. For more Twilight fun, see the Buffy the Vampire Slayer vs. Edward Cullen video mashup on the Heritage Library wiki.
