Robert Pattinson in Twilight vs. How To Be
The world's most beautiful immortal versus a twenty something on the verge of a quarter life crisis: Robert Pattinson's two latest roles as Edward in cult thriller Twilight and Arthur in British indie flick How to Be are polar opposites, and Rob's wardrobe choices make their differences even more crystal clear. As the ever-intangible Edward, Robert was outfitted in fitted tees, tailored trousers and elegant overcoats, not to mention a sculpted coif, that showcased his fashion-forward sensibility and model-like physique, while as Arthur, the actor wore vintage polos, sweats and a disheveled mop that was adorably clueless and very geek-chic.
But what do you think? In which role did Rob look better?

Goz -- I absolutely love the pics you posted here! They're perfect!! RobArt vs. Robward indeed!! Sorry, I can't choose!!
That is the beauty of Rob, he can make any character appealing. ~sigh~
He's sexy in both.. no need to choose-I'd TAKE him either way.. Edward, Arthur or suspender pants Rob (my personal preference!)thud
LOL, Kim, that's because you're now on HTB overload!!! :)
I think RobArt is so cute because he looks so relaxed and more of himself, as opposed to Robward, who's so poised and angst-ridden in his appearance. But right now, until I really get to watch Rob as Art, to see him in action in that role, I'm going with Robward, since that's where my heart lies right now. It's what started my Robsession to begin with.
But, really, I'd take him any way I could get! LOL
I haven't seen HTB yet (I've ordered the dvd today wow!) but I like his style in that movie. It's hard to choose b/c in twilight he had really nice clothes and hair (most of the times lol) but in HTB he has a beard and I love him scruffy :) He's thin so I guess fitted clothes look better on him.
My favorite outfit though is in LA, the naked swim scene :) LOL
Impossible choice.
Perfect sexy boyfriend Edward vs. lovable, I want to take you home and take care of you, Art
Would have nervous breakdown trying to decide.
Too hard to choose....
Agreed Ellie...havent see robart so I cant make a valid choice...
Rob brings something to each character he plays .... I love them all... because their all apart of HIM..
Gah Robert your brilliant...
He is better looking, more handsome, gorgeous, beautiful as Edward of course.
Meh...it's a tough choice. Hmm, I'll take both, please.
LOL
Srsly-two totally different characters...they each have a different sort of HOTNESS about them.
ART, ART, ART!!!! I can't resist a dork....
hmmm hard to choose since i haven't seen htb...
i am naturally drawn to art because rob's beautiful eyes are not hidden behind contacts... but i love edward's intensity. *throws hands up* impossible!
i'll just take rob...any day, any way!
He looks like a different guy in both. My vote is for both.
I really don't care for what he is wearing, I would take him NAKED! What is the meaning of clothes anyway? I would undress him in the first minute!
Art - absolutely....He's beautiful as Edward but so...appealing as Art!
edwards hair but arts complexion, so ummmmm i'll just take rob please......
and OMG those hands wrapped around a basketball!!!
*THUD*
Kristen - MAJOR HAND PORN
(gulp)(gulp)(stammer)....
Thats like asking me to choose between 2 different slabs of chocolate.
I just cant choose because they are both scrummy and edible in their own different ways.
*sigh*
Absolutely beautiful as Edward, but completely believable as Art. Just watched HTB on IFC. Very good movie....breaks your heart for his character. I don't think he could make a bad movie....he's great as either or both.
He's so multifacited it's hard to choose. I don't think I can. Most of my favorite looks are in candid pictures and interviews.
I love all of the characters he's played in all of his movies.
Nope can't do it. He's one the universe.
Hannah - LOL @ chocolate.
Lindt or "Flake"????
Decisions like these could seriously injure the brain
Tina - It reminds me of this..
Have you it before?

Although she makes a decision in the end :-/
LOL!
Goz- This is my first time posting but I just had to thank you for this amazing blog. I am now able to fully indulge in my robsession.
Not only is Rob gorgeous as both Edward and Art, I truly think he is a great actor (his range and talent is so rare). And I have to agree, Rob manages to make both characters sexy in their own right just in different ways... but IMHO nothing beats the hotness of the man as himself! ~sigh~ :-)
I just love how he's smiling as Art but I love his hair playing Edward. Same lips and same eyes. mmm
For daytime: (post-pub) Art.
For nighttime: (post-nuptials) Edward.
I just saw "How To Be" last night and it is your quinestinal british art house movie....it is quirky, original and definitely worth watching. His character is so depressed though, so it's not the easiest character to fawn over.
I do think he is sexier in Twilight; It's the pain more than the whole vampire thing that makes him so alluring in Twilight...
Then again, to each person their own :)
Art is the reality. He would be a great friend that you can confide in, cry on each other's shoulders, go out with and have a few pints with, and occasionally sleep with to subside both party's loneliness. He would always be there for you because he knows what it's like to be hurt by the one's you love. He's adorable, sensitive and unintentionally hilarious. Someone you can hug for hours upon hours.
Edward is the fantasy. He's surreal, magical, super strong, super fast. Sexy as f**k, mysterious, animalistic, dark, interesting and a genius. He's someone who can spend the rest of eternity with you and protect you from all the "vile and repulsive" men/creatures out there. And I really like his style. His driving is erratic but exciting; it's not like he can crash or anything. Can you imagine the sex? o_O Oh my.
If I could I'd choose Art as a best friend and Edward as a husband.
I'm gonna have to pick RobArt for this one ladies. I think he did such a great job playing the character (my friend and I have come to the conclusion Art is probably the most like Rob which is why he was so good). I love How To Be on so many different levels, so definitely going with RobArt!
It's actually such a difficult choice if you really think about it.
As as first glance clearly Edward is the more handsome one, but looks are not the only thing to make a person attractive.
Art's apparent personality (haven't seen the film yet, you see) and quirky clothes/situations make him appeal to me more.
So yh. RobArt this time pls.
RobArt - it seems more natural. Robward was too restrained.
he's perfect all around, and also so beautiful that its painful. i prefer just plain rob ;) he is undeniably sexy as edward, however.
Divinesally, I think you're right about Art and Edward (Edward is mysterious, stylish and sexy, and Art is someone I really want to hug and say it's all going to be OK)!
Rob is fantastic in How To Be and I really enjoyed the film itself too.
