French New Moon Contest: Win a Trip to Italy Set

by Will on April 16, 2009 · Comments

in Italy Set

200904161129.jpg

If you live in France, you have a chance to win a trip of a lifetime to the set of New Moon in Italy. What’s interesting about this for us folks outside of France is that the tentative dates listed for travel are May 26th–29th–more or less confirming at least part of the dates for the New Moon shoot in Italy.

Interestingly, the traveller will stay in the Hotel Baglioni in Florence, with promise of travel to wherever the shoot is taking place. Does this mean some scenes will be filmed in Florence? Or is the travel from Florence to Montepulciano–about an hour and a half drive away?

France is the first in the world to see New Moon–on November 18th, and now this! Jeez, Paris is sounding mighty find right about now…

[thanks, Lydia!]

  • official_cullen_disorder

I practically almost fainted and he asked if i was all right it was kinda funny

  • daphne
    Summit released that they would be filming in Tuscany, Italy. Thats not so far from Florance..
    So before something is posted you should read other news first i think...
  • babayaga
    Hi!
    I think you're right Daphne. Florence is in Tuscany...and if we compare photos from Volterra or even Montepulciano with some of the Palazzo Vecchio and of the Piazza della Signora in Florence...
  • vanessa
    I live in france and i play !
    I hope win !
    and thanks for your encouragement.

  • HannahDfromnewjerseeeey
    lucky french people! i wish that everyone was allowed to participate in EVERY contest and that the movie release dates were the same in EVERY country! Is that so crazy to ask???? I guess so.......... Well, good luck to all that entered!
  • iLoveEC
    Yay yay yay finally a contest in france !!! =) I entered a couple of hours ago and i'm praying that since the results will come out on my Bday (may8th) i might get lucky LMAO Aaaw let's get real, i'll never be THAT lucky ! But I do hope someone from this fansite will win, that'd be so cool ;)
  • kathleeen
    Good luck!! and happy birthday for may 8th lol :)
  • iLoveEC
    Aaaw Thanks ;)
  • sabrina
    I don't think you need to live in france to enter the contest, I'm from Montreal Quebec and I just enter. But you know what I saw everyone comment about how it is unfair, let me tell you what unfair, Living in the province of Quebec is unfair because we don't get any chance to win any of these contest because of some laws that make it to damn complicated to included us. We don't get any Premieres, we have to go to toronto for that and even so they don't come here, they are filming most of it in Vancoucer but still no Premieres for us... There always special thing that are exclusive for America but not for us. That just pissed me of!
  • toietmoidanslememepyjama
    Yeah! I sooo have to enter the contest too since I live in France too!!!!
    And did I read it well? Is NM gonna be released in France first? So it'll be an international release?! God I was so upset NM would come out almost 2 months later like the first one that I didn't even google it to know the exact date lol I should check out Allociné or french twilight sites more often. Now that made my day! I just have to win the contest now and I'll be in heaven ;)
  • mandy14
    j'adore ton pseudo, c'est qui dans ton pyjama d'ailleurs ?
  • anne-so
    Wow french power XD
    Didn't think there were so many french fans on this website ^^
    I was hopping that I would win this contest but now I know that I don't have any hope to have anymore ^^
    Good luck to us ...
    And for the others, don't be jealous, I think that we have waited enough to see Twilight, we deserve a little bit of luck too ^^
  • mandy14
    Bonne chance à toi aussi Anne-so.

    Oui, je pense qu'on est pas mal de Françaises ici,(je me compte dedans, malgré que je sois Anglaise mariée à un Français) car c'est bien ici qu'on a des nouveautés en prems.

    Vive les Françaises !

    Now in English for those who don't understand !

    "good luck to you too Anne -So
    Yes, i think that there's quite a few of us Frenchies here (I count myself in there, even though i'm English married to a Frenchman) cos it's here we get the freshest news

    long live French laides !"
  • GOING TO BE IN Montepulciano
    I live in France lol !! yayyy I dont believe Ill win !!!!
    BUT who cares lol i feel so lucky im american from nationality and go there very often....

    Im nottttt missing an opportunity... so i rellay hope I get to meet the cast and just see the setting !
    hahaaa cant wait! :)
    GOD I mean I go to America twice a year but I mean NOT where they are lol so this is my onlyy time !
    :P
  • Shawny
    France is so lucky :( first they get to see New Moon before any of us and now they get a chance to watch it being made?! Maybe they'll be hope for us when they film Eclipse. Good luck to all who enter though.
  • hello... I'm from Norway and will tell you that this is a great site.
    Now i wished that I lived in France!!! do you know if anybody in europe have the opportunity to wisit the set or do things like that?

    I think that the movie will be released in france first is just wrong...but I can be happy that the movie also have the same released date like US. 11.20.09.

    sorry for bad languages :-D
  • LenaStew2917
    YOUHHHHOUUUUUUUU
    OMG I just entered the contest. I don't know why I am so happy about that, i know that I have no chances to win with all the people that are going to enter this contest xD but hey , I don't care, the crazy fan in me has hope! =P yay!
  • twilover
    I'm just jealous that whoever wins gets to go on set while they are filming. I live in Canada and I could fly to Vancouver, but if I went to the set I would have to deal with security guards and screaming tweens. I would love to be allowed on set..... **daydream** watch them film scenes.....Rob without shirt.....dinner with the cast....hanging and partying.....Rob without shirt......jam seesion with Rob and Jackson......alll Twi boys without shirts....*drool**wake up**.....oh poo!
  • yvette
    omg.
    well, good luck to those who've entered.
    and well that makes.. US.. UK and France.
    Holland next???? PLEASE?????? o_o
    u___u
  • hmmm.....angel
    I know I wish they have a contest in the US at some point. I live only 20 minutes away from Portland Oregon I wish they would come back and film over here again...sigh. Good Luck on the contest.
  • Kimberlina Dirty Pirate Hooker
    Hello!!! I live in the US, when is my chance???

  • jasperr halee <33
    Why cant they have a freaking contest in america!! since so many ppl come here it must good right?!?! we have hannah montana!!!!!! nevermind screw disney but i take italian in school!!! i should be able to go to italy!!! i mean dont frech ppl take english?? well do you ppl????
  • mandy14
    ughhhhhhh, what's the language learnt in school got to do with anything? I don't see the link ?

    Just for info, all French kids learn at least 2 languages mainly a choice between English, Italian, German and Spanish, they can also take on Latin.

    As for the contest, why begrudge the french fans a choice that they have no say in?
  • Laura
    Indeed. We learn Chinese, Japanese and even Turkish in some highschools !
    Frenchs are open-minded people, we love languages & we all learn English at school during seven years at least ( & even more in college ), so the language is just a detail for this kind of contest !

    Bonne chance Mandy, au fait ^^ !
  • mandy14
    merci Laura, toi aussi !
  • mymy

  • erin
    thanks for the pics! i really dont think they did a good job portraying his sexy looks in twilight. i hope they get it better in new moon, even though he's probably only in one scene!
  • i love rob

  • helen
    lucky french
  • bina209
    Booooooooooooooooo... they need to have a contest like that in the USA
  • Milan
    Besides the contest the release for the movie it had to be a Deal with France for the filming. This is an American movie being released in France instead of USA first? If that doesn't sound wrong I don't know what does. It would make sense that the filming will be in France because it would be cheaper(and obviously a deal was made). Or the cast hotels will be in France because it would be cheaper to keep them there. On the other hand it would suck to drive and hour and a half to get to your hotel after filming. Besides don't you have to be on set at a moments call? Hmm very interesting sounds like there changing location for money or security reasons.
  • mandy14
    No, you got this all wrong!
    Films always come out on Wednesdays in France, that's why we get New moon on Wednesday 18 november instead of Friday 20th, no deals on at all.

    No filming going on in france either, where did you get that idea from ?
    The competition is organised by MSN France, just for one winner to go to Italy on set for a three day trip. The rules are very clear too, if ever the timing changes for filming, it'll be tough luck for the winner, who'll get the trip without ever getting on set.

  • elisa

  • amlluc
    and from spain!!!!!!
  • Steph
    Didn't the summit announcement say it was going to be shot in Tuscany? Just thought I saw that.
  • Marystat
    From what I know anyways Montepulciano is in Tuscany, it is an area in Italy not a city. So he may just have referred to the area :-)
  • Marystat
    First the UK and now France...and yet again I miss out cos I live in friggin NORWAY lol
  • jasperr halee <33
    yeah i miss it because of freaking america! o well obama's cool. but seriously!!!!!!! o well jackson rathbone is from the USA so theres some hope...
  • Kyna
    I Live in France and I participed to this game ! I hope I'll win !!
  • IndiesR
    I hope somebody wins that post on this site, so that they will share details with the rest of us, so good luck to you and everyone else on here who will enter. :)
  • RobRocks
    that would be nice
  • RobRocks
    I might have to go to france for Nov 18th. Thats so fricken unfair. whats makes them so special?
  • Laura
    Maybe because Twilight has been released on January, 7th in France !
  • RobRocks
    And...
  • twilightx3
    that sounded kind of mean lOl
    but yeah you're right i want to be first!
    i seriously cant wait til november!
  • RobRocks
    true...i didnt understand her statement at first so I was like...and...and then i read mandy14 comment and understood but still they need to have one in the US...its only fair
  • twilightx3
    i know..
    maybe 2 days aren't that much..
    i know for me is goin to feel like a eternity!
  • Tijana
    You're gonna have to wait 2 days.
    I'll have to wait more,till they put it on the web,or maybe I'll be lucky and they will play it in cinema,but still I'll have to wait more then a weeks or 2,maybe a month.
    Thanks god for the net. :)
  • mandy14
    i totally get Laura's answer, In France, we already had to wait till January to get Twilight at the cinema, long wait.... the DVD too we'll be waiting till July, (though i've already got the English Special 2DVD edition) why should us Frenchies always have to wait so long ? For once, we're having a bit of luck, and definately not complaining about it
  • kathryn25t
    I speak a bit of french, does that count? ;)

    Good luck to anyone who entered

  • Tijana
    Damnn, lucky you if u get to go x)
    I live in Macedonia,there's no way my dad will let me go to Montepuliano(It's not in Voltera) and there's no contest in Macedonia,they just brought the books here,I'll be lucky if there is a contest for the 4 part :S
  • dAm it why france why not in the U.S?!?!? so unfair
  • sevy48

  • God Damn, New Moon is out in France on the 18th? Why?? Its not out in the UK until the 27th!!!! I swear I hate living here!

    Good luck to everyone in France!
  • IndiesR
    Yeah, but look at the bright side, they wont get a huge premier with Rob present...will they? Dont tell me, I dont want to be bitter! LOL

  • IndiesR
    Ok, as long as you share with us. :)
  • I doubt it, not with the big LA premier 2 days from it, I wonder when the premier is in London? I might start saving so I can go on a Christmas Shopping expedition, but no wait, I couldn't handle all the screaming tweens/teens, my poor ears would think they were being savagely attacked! LOL
  • IndiesR
    LOL. Oh yeah, those screaming tweens will do some serious ear damage, they'll ruin your ear-drum. I stay as far away as possible. :)
