The reason I think Carlisle and Esme work so well in the Twilight films is because Elizabeth Reaser and Peter Facinelli have such genuine care and respect for each other. They're friendship is so obvious it their interviews together that it truly feels like they were ships passing through the night.
The rest of the cast seemed like they just wanted to get through the movies and bring home all the money, but the two most underutilized characters had the most spark between them and they deserved better.
I want their movie! I want E and P the Twilight version. I want long walks in the woods talking shit on Edward's whiney ass. Give me a camping trip where they compete to see who can take down their prey the fastest. I want Esme to vent to her husband about how creepy Edward's kid is... 'we love her, but damn I wish they were better parents.'
Esme and Carlisle/ Elizabeth and Peter deserve better.
In the books, Smeyer gave us little morsels of their affection for each other, but they never even had a conversation.
