    God, these pictures basically replicate what was in m mind when I was reading New Moon, the hillside to the alleys to the tower....ah!
  • Tina
    Are you kidding me!? You are absolutely right in your comment...is it not (almost) just as you imagine it? Wonderful! It is a breath of fresh air to see visually what you create in you minds eye. Actually, there are a couple of photos that are a bit more breathtakingly beautiful. Can't wait to see what is in store for the movie. I do so hope that it meets everyone's expectations!
  • flicka_girl
    Me too, Tina!!! The Twilight movie was kind of a let down because they took out the whole chapter, Carlisle, which kind of pissed me off. Then they just added that weird seen about the greenhouse trip or whatever, I mean what was up with that.
  • TeresaTwi
    Every pictures of Volterra... wow! I cannot believe how i didn't find this place before. Thank you Stephenie Meyer!
    Palazzo del Priori is magnificent and one of the places in the world i'm dying to see. I'm counting on you to go with me there (ZÉ, RICARDO, ANA, MARIA JOÃO), but if you don't i'll get there alone!
    I also wish that they do the filming there and not in Rome. New Moon movie would surely be better!
  • BetOnAlice
    Wow!!! The narrow streets are exactly the way I pictured it in the books. Absolutly gorgeous. Why not film it there and give Volterra the revenues it would appreciate. Rome is so over done!!
  • Corrupted
    rome isnt over done! it's an awesome city. have u ever been there? anyway volterra looks abs amazing <3 love it.
  • delly
    rome is kind of overdone. besides, rome looks nothing like tuscan towns. even the lighting is different, as is shown in the pictures. volterra is absolutely beautiful (take it from someone who has visited there) and is absolutely perfect for new moon. rome is too gritty, too much of a metropolis. to get the real effect, i think they need to use the original. FORZA VOLTERRA!
  • Corrupted
    im not saying that it should be chosen instead of volterra, im just talking in general. im just saying that rome is kind of magic, but it has lots of problems.
  • switzerland
    i ve been there and i agree its way overodone i mean its cool but not as beautiful as volterra.

    It's perfect! just how I pictured it. Shooting there is gonna add so much richness and credibility to the film. It's gone beyond a cult phenomenon and has blossomed into a beautiful film franchise.

    I honestly didnt like Twilight the movie. i was very dissapointed. The book was so well written to make a movie that bad...it moved along way to fast. anyway there's more i could say about how bad the movie was... but i rather not..because it would take away from how GREAT!!!!! the books are..I hope the new movie will be worth MY money this time around. it would be nice if they could; maybe stick to the book.

  • I cannot agree with you more!! Nothing can top the books!!! And I too believe that they moved wayyy too fast in the movie, also, Rob Pattinson is NOTHING LIKE EDWARD!!!!!!!! No actor can come close to how perfect he is, thats why i dont think they should have everrrr made twilight the movie in the first place. of course i LOVE the idea of putting these works of art into real life, but i just wish they could have found someone better to play edward...
  • I'm a film student from American Film Institute in Los Angeles. I was also a driver to the movie studios for 4.5 yrs. This movie is so beautifully realized and romantic, all because of Rob Pattinson's wonderfully mature acting skills, he is the perfect Edward. No other actor could have done a better job than Rob. The movie made $370 Million dollars in 12 weeks it play in the U.S. Your taste sucks, it that you sour grapes, because they DID GET RIGHT FOR THE RIGHT ACTOR:ROB PATTINSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE IS ALSO THE MOST GIFTED MUSICIAN AND SINGER I'VE EVER HEARD!!!!!!!!LOOXOXOXOXLLOVE & SUCCESS ROB; CAN'T WAIT FOR
    "HOW TO BE", LITTLE ASHES, HAUNTED AIRMAN, SUMMER HOUSE TO BE RELEASED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen Twilight 10 times in the theaters and I think it was worth every penny I spent for it, if New Moon is as good and I think it will be I will spend even more to see it... The only thing is I hope they write some more parts in for Edward, he is what truly keeps me coming back for more... I LOVE YOU EDWARD (ROBERT PATTINSON) WILL YOU MARRY ME?????

    E' "Palazzo dei Priori" non "Palazzo del Piori"....povera Volterra!
    Oh...state bene attenti quando venite qua! Questa città è fatta tutta di tufo, è unica nel suo genere...al mondo! Non ce n'è una uguale e non siamo a Las Vegas dove ricostruiscono Venezia!
    Siete i benvenuti naturalmente, ma CAUTELA PLEASE!!!

    Wow, that is so..... amazing! It is so much how I imagined it in the book, and I
    think that filming there is a great choice! The Palazzo del Priori seems so strange when you finally see it though. I wonder if they're actually going to used it in the film. Either way, Volterra looks AMAZING!

    im not saying that it should be chosen instead of volterra, im just talking in general. im just saying that rome is kind of magic, but it has lots of problems.

    Hi. I was just wondering ifyou happened to find out the answer to your question? When are they going tobe filming in Volterra? I was going to be there last week of April but perhaps I would delay that visit until sometime in May (if we can narrow it down anymore?) Thanks
  • I visited Volterra a few years ago before the books and it was amazing. Very eerie at night. They have an alabaster sculpting school there.

    It looks a bit drab in the photos, I always imagined it full of sunlight. But the old ruins suggest amazing architecture and are always cool to look at. It will be an awesome set for the movie. :)

    All of those pictures are beatuiful, absolutley breath taking, what will be even more great is just picturing the tension filled scenes when Bella runs through the back, dark alley to save Edward.

    Wow! Volterra is nothing like what I imagined it would be. There's too much sunlight. I was expecting it to at least look a little bit overcast, like it had too much pollution or something. I trust the movie makers, though so I'm sure they'll do a fantastic job of making it resemble how it was described in the book. Can't wait to see it!

    It's wonderfull! I think that it brings out the sorta old fashond love story, to the modern people. It also gives a chance for Volterra to be reconized, and looked at, because the writer give so much detail to the location, and I would so love to see it on the screen!

    Edward ofcourse!!!!! I agree with you, Robert isn't that great... they could have casted him better..... Robert was too "uncomfortable" looking all the time... Edward isn't like that.... he has his moments but for the most part he's not. Did any one listen to the commentary on the DVD... Rob kidda pissed me off.... he's really not that into the character and you can definently tell.
