Robert Pattinson playing Edward Scissorhands? We’d rather have Johnny Depp put our eyes out.

Robert Pattinson playing Edward Scissorhands? We'd rather have Johnny Depp put our eyes out.A crazy internet rumor picked up steam over the weekend. Whisperings of an Edward Scissorhands remake have been floating around, with everyone's favorite unwashed vampire, Robert Pattinson, in the lead. To which we say, "No."

Clearly these rumors got a big push thanks to the current Eclipse promotion, but how is it possible that people could equate Johnny Depp with R.Patz? This is the silliest thing we've heard of since the fake rumors Eddie Murphy in Batman 3 as the Riddler. Thankfully movie Moviefone is reporting that this is merely a rumor. *Shudders.*
