WELCOME TO "WE WANT TAYLOR LAUTNER AS JACOB"!
First of all, we apologize for our mistakes. We're from Spain and it's difficult for us to write properly in a foreign language. But we realize this blog must be in English so it can reach the biggest number of persons possible around the world. If there's someone out there from an English country, don't hesitate to offer yourself to beta read us. If you're interested send a message to: taylorisjacob@hotmail.es

This blog was made as an answer to the growing rumours about Taylor Lautner, the actor who played Jacob Black in the succesful movie "Twilight" based in the book of the same name written by Stephenie Meyer, being replaced for the upcoming sequel called "New Moon".

We don't want Taylor being replaced.

Why?

Because:

1) To replace an actor who plays one of the main roles in the series is a HUGE mistake.

2) Jacob and Edward are the characters with the largest fanbases in the series. Changing Jacob's face now would be as wrong as changing Edward's. They just can't do it.

3) The fans relate Taylor's face with the character, and if they replace him, the character in "New Moon" won't be Jacob at all.

4) We want someone in the role who can actually act. We don't want a huge guy with lots of muscles that cannot portray properly the character in the big screen.

5) Taylor is Jacob. There's no other way to say this. He is the character. The gestures, the smile, the voice, the behaviour... He's just great as Jacob.

There are lots of reasons. And that's why we've created this blog. We want Summit Entertainment to understand what a mistake would be to replace him. That's why we've written a text to send them in an e-mail or letter.

If you want Taylor as Jacob Black in the rest of the movies, please send the next text to:

Dear Mr. Feig,

As rumours about Taylor Lautner being fired from his role as Jacob Black are getting stronger, we would like you to know the opinion of the fans about the
matter.

We will not have another actor as Jacob Black.

Why?

First, it’s a HUGE mistake to change an actor when said actor plays one of the main roles in the series. Jacob Black and Edward Cullen have the largest fanbases within the Twilight franchise. The fans relate Taylor’s face with Jacob's character the same way we relate Robert’s face with Edward. Although Jacob didn't play a major role in “Twilight” he was one of the most higly anticipated casting selections.

Second, it would be preferable to see a shorter, less muscular actor that can accurately portray Jacob's dynamic personality than simply an actor that looks the part. The same goes for members of the pack. We would prefer normal guys as the werewolves, thank you very much.

Third, because Taylor Lautner IS Jacob Black. In the few minutes he had in the movie, he won us all. His gestures, his simile, his voice, the way he behaved all the time… He is Jacob, and we don’t want a stranger in the role. We want Taylor.

Fourth, because this wouldn’t be fair to Taylor at all. He has been so enthusiastic about his role, which fans of the series truly appreciate. He’s one of the most loved actors in “Twilight”. Whenever he comes out anywhere, the screams are incredible. Everyone knows that a business must listen to the concerns of its consumers. If you wish to continue the success of Twilight with New Moon it is essential that you listen to us now. The fans do not want Taylor replaced, and if our voices fall on deaf ears then New Moon will play to empty seats.

Yours faithfully,

PEOPLE'S HELPING!

People from the "Team Jacob Spain" got in contact with us to state that they are supporting our initiative:

"Summit, not satisfied with the director's replacement, wants to replace for the sequel of Twilight (announced for the 20th of November 2009) actor Taylor Lautner, who plays one of the main characters in the Twilight series: Jacob Black.

For now, this is just a rumour, but it's creating a wave of discontent among the fans. For all of us this replacement truly spoils the series.

From the "Team Jacob Spain" and the "Crepúsculo Colombia Cullen", we're fighting to stop this. We've sent e-mails and faxes to Summit, we've initiated a signature petition and we're doing campaigns. But it's not enough.

One of our campaigns is this one:

Put a dog and a moon in your nick as a complaint so Taylor can stay as Jacob Black. Take a pic of all your contacts with those symbols in their nicks and send the pics to:

ANOTHER E-MAIL PROPOSAL:

A lot of the "Twilight" series fans are disgusted with this situation about Taylor being replaced. We think that he is perfect to play Jacob's role because of too many reasons that we've commented in lots of mails before. Now, we are showing you the extent of this dissatisfaction. All the fans, no matter the country, are together in this moment. We only want you to know what we want, what we feel about this. We want Taylor Lautner, and nobody else, as Jacob Black.

Please hear the voices of the Twilight´s fans.

MORE HELP!

Some friends in France have started another project to support Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black.

You can visit them here:

http://the-meadow.fr/taylorproject.php

They've also translated to French our e-mail to Summit, and they've also added it (in English) to the form they had created with the slogan "No Taylor, No Fans".

¡Thanks a lot!
