If you've worn out your copy of the Twilight soundtrack (and you know who you are), you know that there's a soulful, sensitive musician within soulful, sensitive actor Robert Pattinson; his soft warblings pop up in the background of a scene in the first film and everything!

Believe it or not, there is still a subset of moviegoers who have no interest in seeing anything Twilight-related.

If there's one thing we've all learned from Sheenpocalypse, it's that nothing good has ever come from watching Two and a Half Men. And who do we have to blame for keeping ratings high enough that Charlie Sheen became the highest paid actor on television before his descent into madness? Robert Pattinson, that's who.
