Stop bashing Kristen Stewart (and Robert Pattinson)
I am addressing this issue because I am sick and tired of people doing this, and it needs to be stopped, or at least tried to be stopped. It's not okay for people do be doing this. Sure, your personal opinion should be respected, but most of you are just doing this for the stupidest, most shallow reasons. Please read on.
Okay, to understand what I'm going to be talking about, you HAVE TO READ THIS ARTICLE in its entirety:

Now do you people understand? Catherine Hardwicke isn't saying that she wants Robert and Kristen to try out ONLY for MR, but for this IF I STAY also!
Robert Pattinson; personally, I am not a fan of this guy, but I am not a hater either. He's alright with me. But, I don't think Hardwicke is that stupid to put Rob in MR. I don't know if there is a role for Rob in IF I STAY, since I never read it, but definitely not in MR. So CALM DOWN. If anything Hardwicke will give him a cameo role. Also, Hardwicke didn't say the names of ANY CHARACTERS FROM 'MAXIMUM RIDE' OR 'IF I STAY'. So that doesn't necessarily mean she want Rob and Kristen for Max and Fang (or any other characters in either book/series).
Now; Kristen Stewart. Personally, I love this chick. I am a huge fan of her's. She is stylish, beautiful, smart, nice and a GREAT actress. There; I said it. GREAT. For those of you Twilight fans who have only seen her in Twilight, just shut up. That role of Bella was not good to begin with (yes, I have read all four of the books). Bella is a big Mary Sue. Not one actress would be able to do her justice, because they are all better than that. Watch INTO THE WILD, CATCH THAT KID, IN THE LAND OF WOMEN, CUTLASS, PANIC ROOM, and all of her other movies, and tell me then what you think of Kristen's acting then. Enough with the "Oh she looks nothing like Bella" or "She had one expression all throughout the movie." Bella, in the books, was basically all the same, personality/expression-wise ( 'I blushed chagrid,' 'I stifled a gasp,' was said a heck of a lot by Bella through the series). So please don't give me that crap, Twilighters.
Personally, I wouldn't mind Kristen in the movie...and/or as Max. I think she could pull it off. Heck, she's playing badass Joan Jett in THE RUNAWAYS, I think she can play a badass Max. Do I think she is the best for the role of Max? Actually, no. Do I think she would be good as Max? YES. As big of a fan I am of her, I think it would be...interesting to see a fresh face that has a great deal of talent. Like a new Angelina Jolie (acting-wise). But Kristen would be good in the role, nevertheless. She could totally kick major Eraser-butt. Also, in the interview it said that there may be a role for Kristen in IF I STAY; not MR. Are we all calmed down now?!
Okay? So please stop bashing Kristen. She has quite a few movies coming up (like...five I think?), so I don't think she will be very able to pencil in MR. Leave the girl alone. Kristen herself isn't saying she wants to take the role, it's Hardwicke. If KStew isn't how you pictured Max, fine, it's your mental picture, but that doesn't give you the right to talk crap about her because she isn't how you pictured Max. How would you like it if you met your boyfriend's or girlfriend's family, and you were extremely anxious to meet them, and they said, "Oh, you aren't how I pictured my son's/daughter's girlfriend/boyfriend to be. Now I don't like you and never will." or "You don't act like how I think my son's/daughter's boyfriend/girlfriend should act. Go away."? Not good, I'd guess. The same thing goes for Kristen Stewart. That is what you are doing to her. She wouldn't like how you're treating her either. Give her a chance at least. You are just automatically shunning her for her looks/acting/age. And for those of you who are saying that Kristen is too old to play Max, on the contrary, she is right on target. Max described herself in Book 1 (which they will be filming/adapting) as being of the height of 5'8. Kristen is also 5'8. Max also described the Flock and herself as looking older than their actual age. So if Max looked about 19, and she is supposed to be14, that would be just perfect. So Kristen Stewart could be Max. So now, stop with these lame petitions and discussion threads and comments and all that stuff. Even if Kristen (or Rob) were casted, it isn't life or death; just re-read the books to console yourself from your worst nightmare casting and picture whoever you picture as your characters. You know what, if Kristen or Robert were casted in the movie, see it anyway. I'm sure it wil still be great.
For those of you, very few of you, who have no problem with Kristen Stewart in any way/matter at all including this MAXIMUM RIDE debate, I applaud you for being open enough to give Kristen a chance, or if you are just a fan. You are truly awesome people.
So: Kristen Stewart as Max?: Okay. Robert Pattinson as Fang?: No. He has the acting chops, but he is 25, and just not Fang. He isn't how JP described him. But, I will not bash him just because he doesn't look like Fang.
So, please. Stop bashing Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. Give Kristen specifically, and Robert, a chance.

seriously to the last two people who replied take your crap and do something better with it. If you think their ugly you have serious judgement issues. You remind me of jealous girls at my school who gank on other girls because their self-coscious or something. Just because you dont like them dont rank on their appearance because they are good actors in most parts they play. I dont think they are exactly fit for the roles but I think kristen would do a good job playing max and rob could play a whitecoat or something. Who knows and plus no one said they would get the roles and catherine cant just give a role to whom she chooses. Get a life its not the end of the world if every single actor you want isnt in the movie and some actors you dont like are. MY god people act like little kids sometimes. I agree with mickey-izz entirely.

Personally, I read your post and I can see your opinion on it, but I didn't like either of them. I thought that they shouldn't have tried tog et a british actor to play an american character, and I didn't like how in the movie Bella always sounded...angry or unemotional. It was kind of annoying. I don't really think they fit the quota for Maximum Ride, their personalities are too different from the character's to play them right.

I dont think Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson should play the role of Max and Fang. Coz people really recognize them as the "Twilight Star". They will just compare the two story (MaximumRide vs Twilight Saga). And beside Max and Fang where not romantically involve yet on the prior books and this will might disappoint the "bella and edward's fan" that their where not, you know all sweet or lovibadi to one another.

I don't really have a problem with Kristin and Robert as people or actors, but I still don't think they should play Max and Fang. You all are right about make-up and hair coloring being able to change any one into Max and Fang. So the only problem is age. I don't think fourteen year olds should play them because they act way more mature than that, but someone in their teens at least. Also, I like Twilight, and I love HP, but we DO NOT need another reason to compare all the teen fantasy/sci fi book-movies. I think I may be sick if when MR comes out a reporter is all like "Maximum Ride, the next teen phenomenon comes out on Friday. But will it top Twilight?"

I agree with you there I hate it when we get all to familier actors in movies as they start comparing them. This isnt a romantic vamp love story. The characters grew up in dog crates and have to fight lupin hybrids. They also have wings grafted onto their backs and have many weird powers. How the hell are they supposed to be alike. That would be like comparing a fish and a bird. Twilight is for romantic weirdos MR is for action packed fight-scenes with some romance.
