Oh, that was it - a track star. I don't know why I thought of a secret agent. Maybe it was the night-vision goggles. *shrugs*
And yes, you're right, heaven forbid that Bella be independent or resourceful in any way. *rolls eyes*
I understand that Meyer wanted the movie to stay true to her characters, but couldn't she see that even though Bella having a gun or jet skis would be OOC, it would be a vast improvement? No, Bella can't have a gun, because it's not like any girl would want to arm herself after learning that dangerous creatures are out to get her. No, it's more romantic for a girl to just lie back and swoon about the vampire who stalks her and wants to drink her blood. *sighs*
I wonder what Meyer thought about the pepper spray that Movie!Bella had.
