in Italy Set

Twilight Fans New Moon Montepulciano Crowd Italy

The cast of New Moon has recorded a special video greeting for the residents of Italy that will premiere before the film My Best Friend’s Girl with Kate Hudson on June 19th.

The message will express gratitude towards the residents of Italy for the time they spent filming New Moon there, and apologize to the some of the more than 6000 fans that gathered in Montepulciano that weren’t able to meet the stars after waiting hopefully the hot Italian sun.

This is defintely a nice gesture, and will surely boost the ticket sales of My Best Friend’s Girl to boot!

  • xxxMsJacobBlackxxx

  • the_nina
    Yeah, 2008? I never saw it, though. Guess they're trying for more sales in Italy.
  • 5ctBauble
    Ages and ages ago i swear! Its already on DVD and all...
    It wasnt all that good but i guess they will do well in italy if new moon is there to boost sales!
  • Ashleyfan

  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    Its a win win for both movies, My best friends girl and NM. Again smart.
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    I have to say I've never heard of My Best Friend's Girl.... did it already hit the US?
  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    Yeah a long long time ago, if its the same one I saw.
  • ya i agree very smart :D
  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    Now Summit since your watching what is said, PLEASE get Rob better security! I don't know if I can handle another stampede like yesterday's.
  • Ashleyfan
    That just a PR move they dont really mean what they will say.
  • destined to be a cullen
    im sorry, what? i hope YOU didn't mean what you just said.. i think that's pretty unfair on their part, they have been nice since then., of course, they mean what they say..
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    WTF?

    The entire cast has never been anything but nice in interviews & with fans, even when they STAMPEED and invade their personal space.... I have no doubt they will mean what they say....
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    8th!!! YES!
  • alexa
    so weird how some of the people who went there didn't even see the actors while others were handed a contract, got to be extras and saw them filming the whole scene.

    i wasn't crazy enough to go lol but i'm thinking the people who went and didn't see anything must be just a little bit annoyed. haha
  • alexa
    oh and personally i don't think the actors needed to issue an apology for that. they were there to work not to take pictures with fans lol
  • Tiffy
    Very true! They where there to do their job, but you still have to think of all the fans that want to go and see the movie!
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    They can't please everyone.... those are the chances you take when you go camp out to see them.... sad, but true.
  • alexa
    yeah i know and i never said they should. that is not their job i completely agree with you there :)
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    Sorry Alexa... I was more talking to the fan that sent that email in a while ago complaining about how Rob didn't take time to come talk to her and sign her book for her after she sat in the sun ALL DAY LONG.... your comment just reminded me of that... ;)
  • alexa
    omg yeah that was soo wrong. he's not obligated to do anything especially after how those "fans" treated him yesterday
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    That's exactly how I felt about it. He's never been anything but nice to people, and he was ... WORKING.... the expectations of some of these people, I swear... it kills me.
  • alexa
    have you seen this? http://twitpic.com/7hqm2

    they actually dare to look proud of themselves. disgusting.
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    LMAO, my favorite is the one on the right... lord help the future.
  • alexa
    lord help Rob. the man needs better security! it's actually very saddening that he even needs security at all :(
  • Dutchie (Rob sets me on fire)
    OMG!! F-cking unbelievable!! Looking all smug like they won the World Cup or something... Grrrr this really gets on my nerves...

    They should've read all the comments on here yesterday, then they should dig themselves a hole in the ground and jump in to never show their faces to the world again!!
  • alexa
    haha AMEN to that! :D
  • IndiesR
    I really dont understand why they have to apologize, they are only human, they can only meet and greet so many people....this is beyond ridiculos.
  • FL95 (Team Unicorn)
    OFF TOPIC: just read this on A/G's FB page:
    UPDATE from AG!: "I'm going to finish before CC. I swear to all that is holy and pure (Jackson) that I definitely will. You doubt me now... but... you'll see, bb. You'll see. Once I get in the zone... I'll be unstoppable. Win or fail. " That means, the worst condition is we'll get the new chapter one month later, before the ComicCon (23-26 July).
  • Kim1524 (Fanfic Junkie)

  • combat
    lucky bastards.

    Inflict every movie with a glimpse of the NM cast and the movie will make double so much money.
    Imagine how big the twilight Imperium will be after the release of the 4th movie.
  • mschicklet
    "My Best Friend's Girl" has been out on DVD in the US for like 6 months....

    Now I'm wondering when NM comes out in theaters in Italy.... They filmed part of it IN Italy, so doesn't Italy deserve to see it before anyone else??!
  • 5ctBauble
    hey now...no need to give any other country the chance to see nm first!
    wonder when they will start selling tickets to the midnight screenings?

    LOL...can you imaging that day(11-20-09)...nmm.org will be deserted cos we'll all be at the theatres lmao!!!
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Aww lucky Italians *pouts*
    That's so nice of the cast... they're always doing something nice and gratifying for the fans... BEST cast EVER!!!
    Now, about that personalized video for me, Rob? Where is it?
    Can't a girl dream? *sighs*
  • steph69100
