Angie said...

LMAO @ Emily!

Isn't it strange how good things like armpit hair look on Rob. When we would be saying gross to any other man. LOL

Emily said...

Thanks Loisada! I'll be honest though, I did not even notice the writing.

Delle1 said...

He just keeps gettin more gorgeous if that's even possible..........

Emily said...

I know ADM! I would totally snuggle my face in there. Do you want the other side?

Angie said...

Emily, make room!!!!

Loisada said...

Emily.... when I've recovered a bit, I'll just pull myself back up by that armpit hair. You think he'll mind? I mean, every man likes a little rough teasing now and then, right?@?@? Or maybe I'll start a little lower, or.. never mind! It's way too early for letting my thoughts wander down that road. I'll just stay down here and moan for a while longer.....

JUST BECAUSE HE IS
ROBERT FUCKING PATTINSON.

Hello bulging biceps!! One of the sexiest pictures of him that I have ever seen. Now, how am I going to get to sleep tonight?

DJ_ said...

OH GOD

Anonymous said...

OMG! He is gorgeous. I don't think we've ever seen this one before! Gorgeous and great for sweet dreams...

Loisada said...

BRW Dina, have been meaning to send condoleances (?) for all the turmoil in your country right now. Hope you and yours are all well and it all works out in the end. EU membership is no easy thing....

Carole UK said...

Another gorgeous photo for my Rob photo wall - this is costing me a fortune in ink! But worth it!

solas said...

I just don't like the title of the article. Couldn't they have said something like--Eternal LIFe becomes him? Or--living forever becomes him? Don't want to give him an evil eye. :-(

dina said...

@LOIS it's not as bad as tv shows, but we have been around for a while so we are used to surviving through troubled times, it's not the first time in our history and for sure not the last one. Thanks alot very kind of you to mention it.

LM said...

Slow and easy, count to ten, breathe, count to ten breathe. This IS a great picture.

Monique said...

Is anyone at a loss for words? Because seriously... I can only stare.

acullengirl said...

FILTM!!!! That is all I have to say

Lemonless said...

He's leaning against a banana palm leaf, and that is all. HOW THE BLOODY HELL IS HE DOING THAT? Everything else is upright, so it's definitely him doing the leaning back at that luscious angle. Unless...

I think I've found me a new job: prop for Mr Pattinson on photo shoots (I'm short enough not to get into the shot).

Now, where's that cv?

drabrasil said...

oh my good god!!! I just cannot help myself...
he is soooooooooooooooooooooo handsome...
BICEPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LTavares2011 said...

You're so desirable

Billie Holliday ( American Singer )

You're so desirable
I just can't resist you
You're so desirable
I have to give in

That tirm resolve I made
Has vanished away now
I'm happy to say now
You win

You're so adorable
The moment I saw you
It's just deplorable
The fool that I've been

And yet I'm glad
You've got my heart dear
Like a butterfly on a pin
You're so desirable
I had to give in

Rob, I love this photoshoot, especially the new photo, you, wearing white tshirt, your beautiful arms, your careless way, the look, oh the lazy look, thoughtful, your delicious mouth ... You are so desirable, Rob!! I can`t resist!!
B-day is coming up!!!

HOLY MOLY QUACAMOLE! This pic is a reminder of just why women drool over him. I say this alot, but it's true. He is the most beautiful man I have ever seen. It's genetic. ;)

Belladonna said...

These are the most beautiful photos of Rob... haven't we seen the cover shot before somewhere? That one, I'd love a copy of (too) if I could find it.

beanie said...

First time I see this pic and it's a very sexy one! Love Rob in black&white (clothes and pics).
Back to the fifties, you're in good company there, Rob!

nikola6 said...

Oh my god!

THOSE ARMS!!!

They are my weakness!

Stop it Robert!

Stop it right now mister!


Oh don't you dare!

BellaMarie247 said...

Now I know what awaits me in Heaven.

Jeezie Creezie...that is one amazing hunk of man.

These Beautiful photos make sensual dream inspiration, but while I'm still awake, my heart is pounding and my breath gets shallow and fast just looking at himmmmmmmmmm....

captain said...

That gaze...

Just when I thought there can't possibly be a more beautiful photo or angle, another one pops up.

Oh Rob,

Your beauty is unrelenting.

nikola6 said...

I know I've said this before, but it continues to astound me, the sexual maturity of this man.

Go look up pictures of Clooney, Depp, Pitt, Jackman, whoever, when they were this age. They still looked like boys and it wasn't until they hit their 30's that they started to mature into the men they were going to become.

But Rob?

He's already there.

My god. What is he going to look like in his 30's and 40's when he reaches his full sexual maturity?

Were all gonna drop dead, that's what. One by friggin' one.

nikola6 said...

Oh I hear ya captain. Just when I think, that's it, there cannot be a better photo of him...by damn, another one shows up.

When I hear women say that they don't think he's good looking and in fact, they think he's ugly. I simply cannot comprehend that. I can't. Although I think that for many they've only seen pics of him as Edward in the make up. After Remember Me, I heard ALOT of women say...'my mistake. He really is beautiful.' Yup. He really is.
Handsome, yes. But 'beautiful' is really the word that describes that unforgettable face.

I know this is gonna sound like hyperbole, but I'm beginning to think that he may just end up being the male version of Garbo. And she is considered the most beautiful female face to ever grace the screen. And her beauty has often been described as 'unforgettable.'

So is Rob's.

nikola6 said...

Other adjectives used to describe Garbo's beauty?

* other worldly

* ethereal

Same with Rob.

jessegirl said...

Go, GQ AFRICA!
There's a GQ Africa???

That black and white...this is what we live for. And don't tell me he's not a god.

Who is the photographer of the b&w??

Nik...unforgettable...mais oui...
and for your information, speaking for myself, already dead and this picture proves I'm in purgatory--'cause heaven would let me at him, lol--
Sexually mature...don't go there,

captain said...

Hey Nik

Yea, when I look at his photos, this one in particular, I can FEEL who he is, all this triumpths as well as weaknesses. I can't say this for any other stars, no matter how pretty.

jessegirl said...

nadiadas...You almost didn't buy it? What, are you nuts?
THANK YOU!

jessegirl said...

Oh, solas, I'm not looking at the writing! Get your eyes on that face, woman.

jessegirl said...

Nik...Garbo ain't got nothin on Rob. Hyperbole doesn't exist with Rob. He is hyperbole incarnate.
No, sex-god incarnate.
No, an angel on earth.
No, the devil.
No, all of the above.
Hyperbole away, Nik...we are with you!

MsTaurus14 said...

Love this pic, he is simply a beautiful human male specimen. I've never seen a guy photograph as well as he does, I've only seen a couple of angles of him that didn't do him justice, but other than that....just beautiful. I do agree that when he gets into his 30's and 40's then what!!!!He's like a really good wine, he'll only improve!! But at 24 he looks older than his age, there are some photo's of him where he looks quite boyish, but I've always thought he looks older than most guy's his age do, to me he looks more like 27, 28ish, and I think that's part of his appeal amongst a whole lot of other "things". He's a handsome/sexy little bugger that's for sure!!

Jesse--you still don't get it about me and the way I see him, do you? ;-) To me, he really is a boy, a sweet talented boy. And I like to read about him, see how he is doing, and what he is saying and how he is learnng and growing as a person. Sweet beautiful boy. :-)

Cheeky Chops said...

Nik is gonna kill me..but ummm..there is one thing I always notice about Robert..one arm is really really more muscular than the other..hehehehe

Kristen, care to explain this???

*EG*

jessegirl said...

solas,..I'll try to remember that. But I don't get it.

solas said...

Jesse-= Like I've told you--I've been strange, and reminded of it, since I was born. So just chalk it all up to my weirdness. :-D

marina mia said...

oh my god - where did the hell did this pic come from? Breathless, he actually took my breath away.

solas said...

Nik--from what I have seen of photos and film, James Dean and Marlon Brando (may they rest in peace)exuded what most of you would consider 'sexual maturity' ( I know, I have different and weird standards and needs and desires), at a younger age as well.
And I wonder how much of that is what reminds people of them when they see Rob.

womadsart said...

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lolli said...

These are all Stewart Shining photos but we obviously haven't seen that exact photo of him in the white t-shirt. There were other white t-shirt photos from that shoot. It is also frustrating that there were other photos from that shoot of which we have only seen the thumb nail pics. I hope some day that all of these photos will be released for our viewing pleasure.

nikola6 said...

Solas...

I think I get where you're coming from. Although speaking for myself, my feelings for Robert are varied, a bit confusing and I guess some could say, they contradict each other. Couldn't argue with that.

Initially (that day at Comic Con where I watched him struggle), he brought all of my maternal and protective instincts roaring to the surface. And those feelings are still there. I think I've made my 'mother hen' feelings towards him quite clear as I go 'clucking' about around here worrying about his safety and railing against the intrusion into his life that I worry has eroded the quality of it (much to the chagrin of many who I'm guessing would love to hollar out to me...'geez, lighten up willya? what are you, his mother?).

On the other hand...
He is without a doubt, the most beautiful, sensual man I have EVER seen and therefore, I find him sexually desirable in the EXTREME! I admit it. Which is where all my silly sex talk comes from and I won't apologize for it because that would make me a hypocrite. And I'll also admit that at first, these feelings made me feel quite uncomfortable. I mean, there is an age difference here. But then, I did get comfortable with it and that's because, desire doesn't recognize age. Which gets us into trouble when we've got adults desiring children (although I think that has more to do with illness than desire). But when both are over 21, some may go ewww, but no laws are being broken. And since he's over 21, I got no problem here. And too, he doesn't look like a boy to me. He looks like a man and I just cannot feel guilty for responding to a man (and yes, I have passed judgement on those women who made passes at Taylor when he was still only 17 and now I hear, there are many women who have gone ape-shit over this 16 year old Justin Bieber. We're not suppose to judge, but I just don't understand that kind of attraction to a 'boy'. But that's me).

Then on the other hand (Crap. I'm running out of hands here)...

I find myself attracted to Rob on a cerebral level. I'm fascinated by the way his mind works and the way he expresses himself. My real fantasy about him? It's not making sure his shoe laces are tied and his hoodie thick enough to keep him warm on a cold night. It's not the bedroom as -believe it or not- I really wouldn't go to bed with him. He's a stranger and with some of my life experiences, I couldn't give myself to someone I didn't know and trust (although I'm pretty sure I'd sit on the sofa and neck and pet with him for awhile. lol. That would be safe). No. My real fantasy would be to just sit and talk to him. Really talk to him. There are things he knows that I want to know. And there are things I know, that I'd like to tell him. Yeah. Just talk. And I have a feeling, that we really could talk to one another if given the opportunity.

So...yeah. Conflicting, strange and confusing feelings. And I apologize if by expressing these thoughts, that I've made some uncomfortable. I know that talk like this does for some people. Sorry. But Solas and I tend to really 'discuss' not just 'comment' on things. We don't always agree, but we do like to engage one another.

And there was something else I wanted to say to you Solas, but I got sidetracked and now I can't remember what it was.

Crazy brain needs a nap.

LLOVESEDWARD/ROBERT said...

I LOVE THIS PICTURE!!

THIS WOULD MAKE FOR A BEAUTIFUL POSTER!!
HE IS SO GORGEOUS, SO HOT, SO SEXY
L

nikola6 said...

Ah yes Solas. Now I remember.

James Dean and Marlon Brando.

Yes. The comparisons certainly have been made. My first impression
of him was that he reminded me of Dean; his youth, the shyness, the awkwardness, the ethereal beauty, the stare, the hair (lol). All reminicent of James Dean. And I read that for some he reminded them of Brando too, but I did not see that initially and thought...'oh, lets not get carried away here'. But then...

Several months ago, I finally caught Last Tango In Paris (in it's entirety) on late night cable and I sat straight up and thought...'oh my god. It's Rob in 20-25 years'. I sat there literally dumbstruck. Then I went out the next day and rented Streetcar Named Desire because I wanted to take another look at Brando when he was young (nearer Rob's age now) and there it was again only now I could really 'see' it. And now for me he is much more reminicent of Brando than he is Dean. And I don't know what it is. Yes, he looks like him, but it's more than that. It's...I don't know. It's easier to make the comparisons to Dean. More difficult to Brando. But now when I see pics of Rob, I don't see James Dean so much anymore. I see the young Marlon Brando.

And yes, like Rob, those two men also exuded that sexual maturity in their 20's. Also, an intelligence. A soulfulness. And I'm not saying that currently, Rob is the only one. Heath Ledger (bless his heart) was incredibly mature looking for his age as is Ryan Gosling. But handsome though those two are/were, they did not and do not, possess Rob's extrodinary beauty or that powerful sexual magnetisim. It's strange in a way. He's so beautiful, yet there's nothing feminine about him. He's completely masculine. And I don't mean macho. I don't think there's a macho bone in Rob's body. But he's masculine. Male. And it oozes out of his pores.

And this is what I think women are responding to. At least that's what I'm responding to (amoungst other things). And normally, I like to like those things that others do not, that others haven't discovered yet. I hate nothing more than jumping on a bandwagon. But in this instance, I am so happy that there are so many along for this ride. Just having this place to come to, to express these thoughts and knowing that some (not all) will understand what I'm trying to say. It's comforting and...well...rather touching.

And thanks guys for letting me talk and letting me get these feelings out. Your comments to me are beyond kind. I do so appreciate them. And they make me feel that I'm not alone here in my...oh dear lord. What do you call it?

I don't know. And that's because for someone who grew up around stars, I've never had such a response to one before. Never! And so...I really don't know what to call it. And it's not obsession. I think I know what that feels like. I think this is more...fascination.

Yeah. That's it. I'm fascinated by him. In addition to all I've said about him here tonight, at the heart of it all, he's just a damn interesting person. And for me, that's one of the highest compliments I can pay someone.

LM said...

Oh boy, Nik, you really got it right with this last comment (2:45). He is fascinating. His brain must be working at mach speed. I want a peek in there and a long talk too. And he is so male. It is absolutely the most wonderful thing to see.

nikola6 said...

Oh thanks Laurie.

And I was just about to sign off when I realized, I never did read the article. So glad I did. They really hit a few nails on the head.

** Comparing his level of fame to that of Brando and Presley and the Beatles (and of course, only time will tell if that holds up). Part of me would like that but only in terms of his work. He remains this famous, then his career has a chance at being deemed very important and I'd loved that. But in terms of his life? NO WAY! This level of fame is almost always (in the long run) unsurvivable in that it can destroy a life. And this is one of my fears for him. That he'll have to deal with this kind of fame for the rest of his life. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. I want this level of fame to ease up for him, yet...I want his work throughout his career to be seen as important. A conundrum for sure; how to have a career at the top, yet a life lived under the radar.

** Once again, reference being made to the fact that he looks like he stepped out of another century. He absolutely does. They didn't mention this specifically, but his looks are very Byronic and in fact, I'd love to see him play Lord Byron one day. God, he'd be perfect.

*And this is the big one that hasn't really been written about before but that I've always thought is true (and I think we'll see more reference made to this in the future). They said he is the first true movie superstar of the internet era (in my opinion, of his generation) in that, the internet is what has helped to make him such a global presence. It's so true.

It's a pretty good article. I know we've been drooling over the pictures, but if you haven't read it yet...do. And even though this isn't a major sit down interview with him (it's mostly acute observations by the author), this isn't a rag either. It's GQ.

nikola6 said...

One last thing and then I swear I'm going to bed...

These photos (all of them) have really captured that magnificent facial bone structure of his. Especially that b&w. Just look at his face in that one. Those sky high cheekbones (if I didn't know better, I'd say he's got Native American blood in him...who knows? Maybe he does) and that incredible jaw. Honestly. It looks like his face has been chisled by a sculpter.

It truly is a work of art.

And on that note. Me done.

Nite Nite (or in my time zone...a very early good morning)

Nancy said...

OMFG, FILTM, thank you for this fantastic picture. So Yummy.

Rob is a modern Cary Grant. I still love his movies and even as he got older he still acted like a boy. Hope Rob is that way too. Notice he seems older in some scenes and younger in most. He's still a boy to me even if he's 24 now. Maybe because I'm twice his age?

nikola6 said...

Damn. I forgot this last thought and if I don't say it now, I'll forget it by tomorrow (or rather...later today). And it was something lolli said that made me think of this.

I think ALL of the photographers who've photographed him these past two years (the dawn of his stardom), they should jointly approach a publisher and make a deal.

Take the very best of all of these photoshoots (and none of Edward, just Rob himself) and compile them into a massive hardcover coffee table book. Sell the damn thing for $75.00 bucks, everybody gets a cut and I swear, they'd sell 20 million plus copies, they'd all make a fortune and we'd have all the pics in one book. THAT is a brilliant idea if I do say so myself.

Or maybe wait until the Twilight Saga has ended as I'm sure were gonna get more photoshoots over the next two years. But think about it. All the best of the professional shots of him by some of the world's best photographers taken during his Twilight years when he shot to to mega stardom.

Tell me women wouldn't pay $75.00 a pop for that and that it wouldn't be a bestseller? Hell. I'd buy two. One to keep forever and the other to wallpaper the house with.

And no one's gonna tell me THAT wouldn't increase the sale price of the house.

If anyone's still reading this thread tomorrow (okay. later on today), I'd really like to know what you think.

Memè said...

@Nik:
if so, i'd buy at least 10 copies and work as maid in my freetime not to burden on domestic savings (what a responsible woman...).
even if licking paper pics (that's why i'd buy so many: reiterated melting) could cause me some little health problems... maybe a digital book? or something like Official Illustrated Robkipedia?
but actually, the dear, old printed photos are still my fav..
i'm quite sure such a publication would replace the Holy Bible at the top of worldwide bestsellers of any time in just 3 days...oh well, in any case we would be still reading about God, right? :-)

tedgirl said...

Nic,

Better start the ball rolling~ perhaps you could be the intermediary between the various photographers and publishers.
sure you do know what entails this kind of project. Also there are professional ladies in this site to help you out.

If you're not keen, perhaps this Blog can do it or you can tick Rob's Management Team to handle it. (Dunno if Rob will approve) Then you/whoever does it can donate the proceeds to Rob's chosen charity. OR - This Blog could organize fan activities, i.e. attending his premiers, etc. Details could be discussed later.

tedgirl said...

Proceeds, I mean profits after deducting all expenses and not sure of the legalities & tax consequences.

Jane said...

I am now "Team African GQ Rob" wanna make a club anyone?

solas said...

Nik--thanks so much for your take on it all. I DO understand, and do not condemn, that most, if not all other, women here see Rob differently than I do, as far as sexual desire, etc. As far as the latter part of your explanation, the FASCINATION-- THIS is what I have said all along, that i am here, robsessed, because the lad intrigues me. I don't have a problem being frends with anyone of any age; if you have read my profile you would know that I can, somehow, relate to and enjoy the company of anyone of any age, and have had wonderful satisfying cerebral and even emotional (as far as loving on a human or friend level) relationshps with people of any age, including younger than my own children. This is the kind of relationship I, too, would have with Rob if it were possible. Beyond that, I also am fascinated, as a psychologist, wth Rob, as through his interviews we get to see, either by direct comments or undertones and reading between the lines, his growth and way of dealing with stress, that, quite frankly, is brilliant, insightful, creative, and mature beyond his years. I would love to bottle it and portion it out to so many in my care or just people whose lives I see in turmoil, who could learn even more from Rob's way of dealing wth things than from sitting in therapy with someone who may or may not have expereinced similar or parallel garbage, someone closer to their age. I would love to sit and talk with Rob about what influenced him to do this or that or react this way or that way. Some may be from his parents, but not all, and whatever WAS from his parents, would be very helpful for others to know. And it could be that some of his coping mechanism and twists could not be quite replicated (such as holing himself up in a hotel for months, having a friend and kindred spirit to hole up with, having body guards to ameliorate the panic of fear of attack, etc.) even those can still be learned from and possibly extrapolated into what DOES exist in others' lives.

solas said...

And it is not that he has everythign under control; he does not have everything figured out and often contradicts himself or reveals a paradox or outright conflict or contradiction. This too is fascinating, because it not only reflects a REAL person, but also shows growth, learning, struggle.
Totally intriguing.

solas said...

and as for myself not seeing him as a man of sexual maturity, as someone to phantasize about, and even cringing about some of the stuff I see-- there are a few elements here. First of all, I have had a notion for quite some time about the kind of man I am sexually attracted to, and need, and desire, and it is simply not his type. I wouldn't say one particular actor is my type, but a few are appealing sexually to me. However, to be really sexually desirable, to me, there are other pieces there, that no matter how gorgeous, sexy, etc, a man is, if he doesn't have those components, he jsut isn;t what I want or need. I will say that as far as intelligence, interest, and creativity go, Rob has that component, but so do many of my friends of various ages. Then there is the build of the body--I think I like a more mature build--not bulk, just something that is, to me, pure man. And this is where another apsect of my life and reality comes in: I have a son older than Rob. My son is 30. I still see him as my little boy. I see his friends whom I have known since they were 3, as little boys. I see my nephews who are older than my son, as little boys. But for me, seeing people as little boys doesn;t mean I still play Junior Scrabble with them or send them in for a nap after He-man and cookies and milk. I just see beyond the surface, and see this little boy soul peering out from the eyes. It is part of why and how I relate to any age of a person: I don;t see people as marked by the age they are physically, but by something else. It is too much for me to get into further here, but suffice it to say, I see Rob also as a little boy, even though I think he has quite an old soul, partly because he/his soul--whatever you want to call it or however you describe it-- draws out the thread and relating of nurturing, caring, and specifically not in the way I would care about a mate.

Solas....Come on, don't spoil it for everyone. It is hard to believe that you can look at this man and think of him as a little boy and you do not have not one sexual fantasy about him. This site is to fantasize how hot Rob is and what our fantasizes are about him, not feeling like you have just walked out of a psychologist office when I read your comments. It takes away my buzz of daydreaming about Rob and I am around your age and definitely do not think of him as a child. Sorry, but this psychoanaltzing shit takes away my buzz.

Barbara said...

@ nik - Fanfuckingtastic idea about a photoshoot best of Rob for a coffeetable book. Hell, yes, I'd pay $75 to buy it. My shekels are ready.

His expressive eyes have no peers. There is a depth to his soul and he definitely does more than just see with his eyes. He communicates on many levels with merely a look.

What a great experience it must have been for you to speak with Rob at Comic Con. I know why you treasure the memory.

Unknown said...

@ Solas I've only posted once before, I'm mostly a lurker but I just wanted to say I enjoy your comments and psychological analysis. I'm a psychology major so I find your own ideas and analysis on here very interesting. :)

solas said...

Jane, I am very sorry to kill your buzz. I can honestly say that I do not have any sexual fantasies about him at all.
I was not aware that this site was specifically for fantasizing about Rob or how hot you think he is. If so, Gozde and Kate, etc, ought to let me know and I will stop posting.
I thought this was a site for fans of ROb, who are addicted to him, and although I am not interested in him sexually at all, I am, as i said above, intriged by and fascinated with him; I find him incredibly talented and a really charming intricate REAL person. Genuine and interesting human being.

I don't want to go in a psycoanalysis of any thing lets leave that to the shrinks and others , but has any body thought (many have commenting so far )but for argumentsake why are all the double 'xx' going all beserk with this fine specimen of a young man in his early 20's , is it because he played Edward cullen apty called as perfect alpha male that even men for generations have to lookforward , or it is something else. Many of you out there would be snickering by now because of all the cellbiology discussed in the begigning!I admit that I am with most of you here , that why we are all here!Seriously,most of us have a viseral reaction to him?
Hope non of need therapy after this!
Best wishes to Nik , Sol , others who regularly respond here , most of all thx to Kate and Gozde for this creating this blog , make sure that while procuring the pics of the most desirable one pl dont fund the paps , those will make life even more harder for him then it is now.Last of all god bestow all the best for RTP.

Thanks.
(with this I end my speech !)

solas said...

Barbara--do you live in ISrael?
Also, I was not so much analyzing Rob as am tryn gto analyze and explain how I view him, which I am aware is in a manner different from ohers (possibly everyone else). And I do not judge, about the age differences or anything else. Just trying to explain, and, as Nik says, discuss and not just comment.
Am I being judged because I do NOT see Rob the way most or all of you do? Because i do not desire him sexually or phantasize about him? Because my approach is to explore and understand and discuss? Because my taste in men, my desire and needs, are different from yours?

solas said...

sars--I don't see it as having ANYTHING to do wtih Edward Cullen. I have been on this site for about 9 months and I think the women here are mature (not talking about age) to know the diffrence between role and person, and everyone is, each in her own way, sexually and otherwise, taken with Rob the person, not the part he plays.

sarsaparilla said...

thx for your response Sol, it is not Edward cullen per se( he only looks 17 but he is not, he is 109, mentally mature how you want to see it), and the same I do not see him as a object of desire,most of the time I do not see the pics (I can hear a collective sarcascasm from all of you here, I accept it)it is not looks , something else that sol pointed out in her post ,Thx again and hope have not offended anyone here

ROBsessed89_MIAwithROB said...

OMFG...look at him IDK what im gonna do with myself now...i have the rest of the day to think about this...in unhealthy way lol...this man is fuckn' GORGEOUS!!!!

MsTaurus14 said...

Nik: As always you have a great deal of insight and such an eloquent way of putting things. What you were saying about how you feel about Rob, I'd have to "ditto" all of it, you hit the nail on the head as to how I feel about him too. I'm considerably older than he is, and even though I've thought other younger men attractive...(I mean, hey, I ain't dead ya know)the attraction I have for Rob isn't just because of his looks per say, I think he's absolutely fascinating, and he would be so interesting to talk to, just to see what makes him tick. And I'm very grateful for this site to share about these sort of thoughts and read others thoughts about him, without feeling like a "weirdo", I actually don't discuss him to anyone really outside one or two people that really know me, 'cos I'm sure anyone else would think I was a total "nut job", but I can't help it, I'm drawn to anything Rob.
As for your coffee table book idea, it's an awesome idea, it should be done...hell..I'd buy it, he's a work of art.

Barbara said...

@ solas - I'm from SW Michigan, 90 miles from Chicago, right on Lake Michigan. Did you think I was from Israel due to my use of the word, "shekels"?

There are people here from all walks of life and all viewpoints are welcome. As long as we treat each other with respect, everybody is allowed to say what's on her mind.

I am totally Robsessed and addicted to Rob Pattinson. While I cannot imagine anyone beholding him and not being responsive in many ways, including physical, I think we're all allowed to think what we want. You explained yourself well. We don't all have to be carbon copies of each other, but I'd say that 99.9% of those who visit this site are hot for Rob. Don't feel you have to give up being here because you don't want to jump his bones. The rest of us would be delighted to help out with that delightful action.

FILTM!

solas said...

barbara--yes--I thought since you used the term 'shekel' you were in Israel. Is that a term used for payng moeny, and if so, why? I don't know or understand all idioms.

Thanks for your other comment. My physical response to Rob is a need to just pinch his cheek (facial cheek, that is) if I knew it wouldn't hurt, because I think he is just so 'chenovdik' (have no idea how to say that in English, but it is kind of sweet and charming and cute) or to shelter him and protect him from the screaming crowds. And again, it is not that I don't find him beautiful; he is just not my type physially or sexually; my body simply doesn't respond at all to seeing him the way it might for seeing a dfferent man.

Lemonless said...

Well I hope this thread isn't dead yet, because I want to respond to both Solas and Nik to say that you're both true fans, each in your own way, because you look at everything about Rob from the perspective of supporting him, rather than that of fulfilling your own needs above all. And THAT is why I'll always read the comments of both of you, despite your differing viewpoints.

Now, some of the less mature people on this blog might not apreciate that it's possible to be in the same room as one's passion and not start tearing cloth, but I agree with Solas & Nik: I'm fascinated by him, too.

I, also, would love to find out his views on all manner of subjects, all the while appreciating his beautiful form. And I'm also old enough to know for sure that that's never going to happen, so I'm quite comfortable letting rip with ridiculous suggestions and innuendoes here, because this is my playroom.

The rest of my world is so uptight that it's fun to come here and let rip, so I'm happy to side with Nik on that, all the while appreciating and accepting Solas' viewpoint. And she's not the only one to have expressed that opinion. A couple of other brave souls have also said their attraction is not physical, and I will defend to the death their right to say it (paraphrasing a rather famous saying), against the silly things who cannot conceive of an opinion that doesn't concur with their own. Poor fools!

Nancy said...

I repeat, Rob is Sex Personified! Girlie parts tingling. Had to get the vibrator out today for this pic since hubby is working. hehehehehehehehehehehe

Thud,
FILTM

Nancy said...

@Lemonless, great viewpoint.

I also love Rob for his Soul, personality, not just his looks. I have saved his interviews on TV and checked out the YouTube interviews I missed. That's where the real Rob comes out. Not in his movies per se, but more his interviews. Have watched both Comic Cons, love him on Ellen, looking forward to Oprah tomorrow on his Bday. Even the Jon Stewart show is a great one too. He giggled like crazy on there and Jon even acknowledged his greatness. Floored me.

Looking forward to Oprah and Ellen so far. Forgot the 3rd one he's doing. And can't wait for Remember Me DVD on sale June 22! I will be first in line!

solas said...

Thanks, Lemonless. For myself, a thread isn't dead until it is at least 2 pages back. :-)

Wonkyfootalert said...

Lemonless, thank you for really summarizing everything I feel for RP and for this site in general. I have never commented before (RL is just too much so I don't get to visit often enough) BUT this time I just had to because the comments were so fantastic. I see this site as my "playroom" too and many times the lovely ladies of this blog have lifted me out of a bad day with the funny comments or, in the case of today, just simply made me realize to a greater extent why I am so captivated by this man.

Wonkyfootalert said...

BTW, the "Wonky Foot Alert" is courtesy of one of the fine commenters...there was a pic of Rob at a bar and someone said that a few weeks back somewhere in the comments and I just about fell out of my chair laughing. Just another example of why I love dropping by and getting away from RL for a while.

solas said...

Maybe I was the one, in kindergarten, who got the box checked for 'Runs with Scissor' instead of 'Plays well with others.' ;-)
I personaly don't use or need this room to play, but I do enjoy the conversation most of the time, and I learn something almost every day. Thanks, folks.

solas said...

On the other hand, I DO see this space as an alternative to RL, as I would not have met, even online, such interesting and diverse individuals, some of whom I converse with in emails and would like to meet someday, and in RL there is no one with whom I could possibly discuss or even divulge, my fascination with ANY boy or man, Rob or anyone else. So thanks again. :-)

pattid53 said...

@Nik and Solas- I so enjoy reading different points of view. I am a mature fan who has a son that's 30, but I am Robsessed. This is a wonderful site with incredible ladies that admire Rob.
There is something about this young man that's special. I save his interviews on VHS, my husband would delete them from the DVR.
He is a beautiful person inside and out. A refreshing change for Hollywood. I just hope he is able to eventually have some semblance of a normal life once all of this madness is over. I would definitely buy a book of his photos although I couldn't put it on the coffee table.

@nancy - Cary Grant was my favorite also. I especially loved An Affair To Remember.

Nancy said...

@pattid53, yes, that is my favorite too. I have the VHS tape but not a DVD yet.
I still cry at the ending of it.

Hated the new version with Warren Beatty. It was terrible.

REally looking forward to my Remember Me DVD. Had tears on that too. Can't wait to show the family. They all missed it.

solas said...

I thought Cary Grant was OK.

Jane said...

Hey remember, there are two Jane's on here. All I have to say is that Rob is the boyfriend we never could have and the husband we always wanted.

solas said...

For most of you, Jane. 0:-)

solas said...

BTW=how do we tell the difference between Janes? Are you both Jane, or are the screennames different?

Jane said...

Both are Jane. I have been on here for a long time. I just noticed the other Jane just recently. So, I follow you ladies.

Cheeky Chops said...

Lemonless-"against the silly things who cannot conceive of an opinion that doesn't concur with their own. Poor fools!"

Hahahahahahahahaha

If that wasn't the most FOOLISH statement I have ever read in my life..I don't know what is..LMAO

I respect everyone's opinions on this site..but when they start name calling and judging other fans..u notice THAT is when I turn into BITCH..and yes..I do exactly the same thing you "Ladies" do. I've said before..no fan is better than anyone else and not just on this site.

I don't believe in "cliques" and I don't believe in stereotyping..(teens..older women..women that are in between like me)..LOL..but if you wanna go there..I'll go there..some ppl just can't stand it that I'm better at it..this is Robert's website..not mine..not solas' and definitely not ur's Lemonless..anyone here wanna psycho-analyze him..that's fine..anyone here wanna be his Mother..that's fine too..anyone here wanna say he's butt-ugly..hey that's fine too..they are talking about HIM..that's not trolling..trolling is when u get on a site and talk about everything else BUT him or attack each other (calling each other names).

So..don't be NEWBIE FOOLS..know what trolling is..figure out who's website this is..If there's pics or posts about other ppl..you can talk about them as well (negative or positive).

Sorry, just my OPINION.

HYPOCRIT

solas said...

Jane, after reading over comments, I really have to say, I had some wonderful sweet gorgeous intelligent and talented boyfriends (although not in the definiton that boyfriend seems to connotate today; sex was not part of the boyfriend-girlfriend relationship) and male friends; Rob would have fit right in, but I would not say he is the boyfriend I never had. And he is DEFINITELY not the husband I ever or always wanted.
Or were you joking with that comment? Sorry, i cannot always tell.

jessegirl said...

Lolli...thanks, yeah Stewart Shining, the worm, keeping so many from that shoot as thumbnails. Can't tell you how often I've looked for them in a larger size.

And this white T pic: Gahhhhh!!!

jessegirl said...

Nik and Solas...
Nik, your comment at 1:44 am: In many ways, that's me, and I've made that pretty clear on many posts since I've come out of lurky hiding some months ago.

I don't understand why seeing this man doesn't send all of every woman's hormones into a raging overload.(That's where you and I part company, Solas.) That's also why, if he did turn out to play for the other team, I'd be crushed (no anti anything intended). All of which is irrelevant, given, well, everything.

Feeling this way this hard is so primal on so many levels. I don't know but surely Taylor, Zac, even Justin--now there's a kid, looks 10--or the older guys, Brad, Johnny, George don't have web blogs like this. Okay maybe they do; I don't want to waste my precious time researching that. (I want to waste my precious time HERE!) Actually, if they do I couldn't grasp it. At all.

Robert is in a class by himself, out of everyone's fucking league, by any measurement: looks, intelligence, heart, soul, etc. Once you've seen him, you're blind to all the rest. All of them.

I'll probably click 'publish' before I think, but I don't think I'm alone. So, Nik, nope, you're not alone.

jessegirl said...

Nik at 5:59 am...bone structure...I think it's obvious in these photos because he is clean shaven. More obvious.

jessegirl said...

Nik...about the book of photos. I've thought of that before. High quality glossies, all 8x10, all those gorgeous outtakes...Ah, Weber, Wenner, Shining, Segal (!), Goldberg (?), Hedi Slimane, Pizzello, and whoever did those VMAN shots with the Edward hair and the blue shirt with the tee underneath. I'm not a Details fan, except for the cover. All those photos in one place, the mother of all coffee table books.

Which reminds me, he's due for another photoshoot.

Nancy said...

ITA Jesse, Rob is a "Class of his own" There is NO one to compare him to really.

Kinda like Cary Grant, James Dean, Robert Redford, since he is
Robert f***ing Pattinson! He broke the mold and NO one can compare to him.

jessegirl said...

solas...your views and comments are always welcome here.

jessegirl said...

Okay, solas, if it's not too much to ask--feel free to ignore this if you think it's invasive--what man we know do you think is sexy?

jessegirl said...

Jane...8:08 pm...with apologies to my HB...ITA

jessegirl said...

Nancy at 12:15 am...*waves* I'm with you, babe. Broke the mould. Yup. And they only have one like it every century or two.

jessegirl said...

Now I liked James Dean, the tortured soul in East of Eden, and a bit in Rebel. (Giant? sexy but...)
Brando was always too, hmm, cruel is the word, for me to be turned on by him.
Cary Grant was bisexual and wonderful--loved Affair, did Warren Beatty really do it too--uh, yuck--.

Grant was suave--Rob too;
Brando dangerous--Rob too;
Dean tortured--Rob too;
Redford with the hair--Rob better;
Clooney charming--Rob too;
Pitt beautiful--Rob uberbeautiful;
Depp quirky--Rob too.

Shall I go on.
There ain't no man to touch his appeal. No way no how.

Belladonna said...

I love all your comments here. We are in agreement about one thing, it seems.

We all see Robert in different ways: beautiful face and youthful body, charming accent, refined manners, silly humor, childlike memories, hottest guy, sexual fantasies, wonky legs, triple jointed fingers, messed up hair, shy lover, tortured artist, soulfull musician, bookish specimen, intriquing thinker, movie star...

We love him, for all these things, and a million more, but one thing we all love is the way he makes us respond to him without knowing a thing about how. We love that he exists, that he shares his life with us, through his photos, his words, his roles, his music, his stunning good looks.

We love that he makes us feel...

solas said...

I responded to Jesse via email--answer too long and not for this space.
