MTV wonders about the success of Robert Pattinson in Water For Elephants

From MTV.com "big-screen pairings we're most looking forward to checking out this year":

Robert Pattinson & Reese Witherspoon in "Water for Elephants"

Sure, RPattz will once again share the screen opposite Kristen Stewart in 2011, but he's been mining the same limited "Twilight" material for a while now, and we're keen to see how he manages when his character has more emotional motivation than simply protecting his beloved. (Tink: *bitchface* Edward is way deeper than this...or am I reading too much fanfiction?)

While we enjoyed his turn in last year's romantic drama "Remember Me" (Tink: YAY :) MTV "got it"!), a performance opposite the Oscar-winning Witherspoon in "Elephants" will mark Pattinson's biggest opportunity yet to establish himself as a formidable talent. (YodaTink: establish himself he will)

The first trailer mostly showcased RPattz in smoldering default mode (Tink: hey! Not the worst thing in the world!). Can the 24-year-old Brit step it up? (Tink: yes.) Can his chemistry with Witherspoon begin to compare, in fan's eyes, with the Bella-Edward-Jacob love triangle? (Tink: leave Jacob out of this and yes.) Answers will arrive with the film's release in April. (Tink: the answers are here NOW. While Edward is love, Rob is more than just Edward. Robert Pattinson will prevail!)

Let's remember how Rob is more than just Edward.
