NewMoonMovie.org: Beautiful Sights of Montepulciano, Italy: Volterra Redefined

  • The Original Paulex Girl (TWP) · 8 months ago
    One - gorgeous pictures!

    Two - That is EXACTLY how I imagined Volterra in my head. Especially the darkened streets and that hallway with the stairs. I'm happy with it.
  • miahamm90 · 8 months ago
    OMG!!! Thats BEAUTIFUL!!
  • emmalouise · 7 months ago
    If volterra is the actual place in the book then why are they filming it somewhere else? Obviously volterra is the place stephenie had visioned it all happening when she wrote the book, so why not use the place where the author had originally envisioned it?
  • Brooke · 7 months ago
    twilight wasn't filmed in Forks. and New Moon isn't being filmed in Forks, either. It's being filmed in Vancouver and Montepulciano. Get over it! You should be glad they are making New Moon into a film. If it looks the part, why does it matter?
  • Rachel · 7 months ago
    I agree. As long as it looks good they should be able to film where it is easiest to film. If it doesn't look right then film it somewhere else. :)

    yah right,

    Hi everybody,
    I'm from Rome and I know very well both Montepulciano and Volterra.
    I think they chose Montepulciano beacuse it's a little bigger than Volterra, and it's quite more similar to an old italian town.
    I had prefer Volterra, too, but I think it should not adeguate for the filming.
  • les_24 · 1 week ago
    I like your idea
  • JamesJones · 7 months ago
    Well they will obviously make the set look and feel as much like the actual place she envisioned, sometimes just because the place exists, doesn't mean your allowed to film there or the fact that the actual place in question isnt practical, as doing a movie has a lot of baggage ie. crew, cast, equipment etc.

    (I mean u can say the same about loads of film, i guess the funniest comparison would be titanic lol, they didnt film that in the ocean, and they didnt even use real icebergs lol...tut tut)
  • Berta · 6 months ago
    There is no place like the one mentioned in the book in volterra.
    Just a market place without a clocktower or a fontain...

    Thats why.
  • Lisa fragoso · 5 months ago
    The main town square or "piazza" looks very very similar to Volterra. I went to Volterra 4 years ago. Montepulciano probably had more areas to work with around the town. Either way this looks like a great site. In the book it was stated that there was a big fountain in the middle of the plaza where the clock tower was facing and there is no fountain in the plaza in Volterra.....creative license....just shows that things change and still be fine.

  • darceydanielle · 1 month ago
    your an idiot..if you have read it sooo any times you should know how to spell! Its is in the city of Volterra..and the vampites are the Volutari...
  • CrazyCullenCookie · 1 month ago
    umm, u cant spell either. They are the Volturi vampires that live in Volterra, not the Volutari. and there vampires, not vampites
  • dorsa_cullen · 1 month ago
    darceydanielle,
    ur an idiot urself....the vampires are the Volturi not the Volutari ! =)) I-D-I-O-T !!!~~~
  • JocobMyHottie · 1 month ago

  • les_24 · 1 week ago

  • twilightluvinmommy · 1 month ago
    They didn't even film the first movie, twilight, in Forks Washington... They actually filmed it in Oregon somewhere, Forks was said to be too expensive or something like that, at least they are filming it in Italy not in a studio with a green screen or anything like that.....
  • Z28 · 1 month ago
    I have to agree with you on that.
  • lilykaro · 3 weeks ago
    When Stephenie wrote the book, she first never named the place, it's after, she look for a city that was not to far from the airport, so Alice could drive her super car. The she realise that Voltera existed, and was actualy freaking out because without knowing, she created the same city in her book!

    See her web site to have the details !
  • Taw nya · 7 months ago
    Someone complained about the setting in Italy. You have to remember that they dont always get the permits that they needed or maybe the angles where not all correct for them to shoot in Volterra. Maybe a Volterra is being used for another project or its under construction. You never know so where ever they are filming just be happy they are getting it done for us.
  • LUVLUVLUV_Twilight · 6 months ago
    Absolutely Amazing!!!! Its everything I imagined and more. This pictures are surely breath taking and I definitily had a goose bump moment!!!
  • tneb_EJay · 5 months ago
    yeah true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • can't-wait-for-new-moon · 6 months ago
    this is nothing like what i thought it would look like, where is the big town square were bella runs across to save edward?
  • Tiffy · 5 months ago
    I have to agree with you TWP. It's what I expected!
  • Donna · 8 months ago
    Italy is lovely! I had a wild summer romance there once........ Are they still gonna call it Volterra in the movie? And, I hope it is not close to where the big earthquake happened this week...... All those poor people killed and beautiful old buildings knocked down.... You have my prayers Italy.
  • ilovetwilight · 7 months ago
    my bestfriends family were all killed during that earthquake. you can see the sadness in her eyes. i pray for all of them in the villages. ♥
  • sad_for_you · 5 months ago
    Aww that's so sad ]:

    I'm so sorry.
  • Hillary · 7 months ago
    No. Montepulciano is in Tuscany. The Earthquake happened in Abruzzo, centralized in the city of L'aquila (although it was felt as far as Rome).

    My fiance is in Pescara (a city near L'aquila) and there was not any serious damage there, so I doubt there was ANY damage at all in Montepulciano.

    PS. Does anyone know WHEN the movie is being filmed there?
  • Brooke · 7 months ago
    Yes. They are done in Vancouver and are filming there now. :)
  • bella425edward4445 · 7 months ago
    ya i agree
  • Victoria7 · 8 months ago
    When i read the book I so pictured Volterra like that!, specially the square part. All with that kind of beige bricks.
  • nomesters · 8 months ago
    I love the pictures - they are beautiful, but Volterra is really what I imagined, and I feel like if there is any way the filmmakers can film thee scenes from New Moon there, that would be better. Montepulciano would work, it would be great, it would be beautiful and not many people would be able to tell that it wasn't Volterra, but Volterra is what is described and I feel like it fits a bit better.
  • WetDishRag (AKA deedee81) · 8 months ago
    I think Montepulciano is beautiful the only thing is it doesn't have a water fountain! I suppose they could make one though.
  • Rosalie · 7 months ago
    This is EXCATLY what I've been imaging in my head right as soon as I finished reading what it looked like I pictured this place excatly.
  • bella425edward4445 · 7 months ago
    ya i agree :D
  • Lisa fragoso · 5 months ago
    Volterra doesn't have a water fountain in their town square either. I went there 4 years ago.
  • DamselNotNDistress · 8 months ago
    Its beautiful!!
  • Elloo · 8 months ago
    Looks awesome! PERFECTO :D
  • Hillary · 7 months ago
    the italian translation of "perfect" is actually PERFETTO lol "perfecto" is spanish.
  • Alice_the_control_freak · 8 months ago
    Italy is so pretty! i can't wait to see the finish product of all the filming done there for this movie!
  • Twilight_fan_forever · 7 months ago
    Jacob is awesome. Jacob is stupid and annoying have you read Eclipse and breaking??
  • Alice_the_control_freak · 7 months ago
    yeah and in my opinion he is one of the more less annoying characters. i dnt like that he likes Bella or that he imprints on her daughter but i like him in general hes entertaining.
  • can't-wait-for-new-moon · 6 months ago
    I hate how he thinks Bella will pick him
  • Name · 4 months ago
    me too thats really annoying
  • JocobMyHottie · 1 month ago
    I love jacob too yes he gets annoying but the stories would be nothing with out him and plus he is awesome eye candy Yummy Yummy
  • Mandy-Team Jacob · 5 months ago
    Whateva! Jacob is f*cking awesome! He was there for bella when edward wasnt! geeez
  • CrazyCullenCookie · 1 month ago
    so f*ing what ig Taylor Lautner !!! Edward only left because he was trying to protect bella. Jacob also didnt protect bella very well, (ahem, cliff diving) and if he did, then there wouldnt be a need to film in Italy.
  • Jolie · 6 months ago
    Je tu J'adore Twilight et Taylor lautner ill ai chaud!!
    Italie est beau!
  • coco<3 · 6 months ago
    could u PLZ tell me wat lang ur speaking in?!?!?!!?!?!?!!?!?!?! LOLZ c:
  • actuspurus · 4 months ago
    Jolie is speaking in slightly incoherent French Coco. A rough translation would be "I love Twilight and Taylor Lautner is hot. Italy is beautiful."

    Cheers,

  • nadee09 · 8 months ago
    i know it is sooooooooo pretty!....im sooooooo ESTATIC! for the actors to go and film the movie!!!!...can Summit already tell us who the heck are the rest of the Voturi Coven!!!!!!! ??????? =D
  • xMissMariex · 8 months ago
    This place is beautiful! After seeing these pictures I must say I'm tempted to plan a vacation to Italy in the nearby future =)
  • bella425edward4445 · 8 months ago
    i cant wait too see how it will look in new moon they r both beautiful places either place they choose to shoot for new moon i will be happy with
  • KINALuvzWolves · 8 months ago
    These are really pretty! Thanks for sharing.
  • Warrenff5 TwiGuy · 8 months ago

  • floridagrl16 · 8 months ago

  • claudia · 8 months ago
    Italy is a beautiful place I'm sadden for the earthquake that just happend, and i wish i could do something to help, but I'm so excited about New Moon...
  • toietmoidanslememepyjama · 8 months ago
    Wow what a beautiful place!!!! And it's perfect for the book. Just like I imagined it. Especially the dark streets and that stairways. Except for the 'Domplatz Montepulciano' square, I'd imagined something much larger. Aaah these scenes in Italy will be my favorite part of the movie, it's gonna be great!
  • Dani · 8 months ago
    I might be going there while they are filming!!! my mom doesn't know my plan but she asked me if i wanted to go anywhere on vacation this year. i go ITALY, MONTEPULCIANO and she's like "why?" and im like "er....cause its really pretty.. and stuff. can we go at the end of may?" so she is definitely thinking about it! little does she know the set might be there!! mauahahah >:))
  • Ann · 8 months ago
    Hey! Do you know what dates they will shoot there? I'm planning myself a birthday trip and I have only one destination in my mind =)
  • emmett's girl · 8 months ago
    het they started shoting there on monday of this week
  • raivotar · 8 months ago
    Glad you like my Italy <3
  • ...Italian Twilighter... · 8 months ago
    IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! but i prefer the real Volterra.....
  • can't-wait-for-new-moon · 6 months ago
    same here, it is nothing like i imagined, but it is a beautiful place
  • coco<3 · 6 months ago
    same. its nice and all, but i wish they'd use the place Stephanie Meyers pictured in the book
  • oceanecho · 8 months ago
    I gotta admit, Montepulciano is beautiful, just like Volterra but I still think it's missing those little things. There is no water fountain that Bella has to run through to get to Edward, no 'real' clock tower like described in the book. It still has that ancient gothic feel, especially from those real misty, dark shots. I think it will look great either way, I know we won't be disappointed.
  • RenataShield · 8 months ago
    SOOO Pretty. I wish I could visit someday.
  • Juju · 8 months ago
    1. Gorgeous.
    2. I'm ready to leave for Italy after seeing these.
    3. Perfect. It's just how I imagined it.
  • ire...from italy · 8 months ago
    oh my god...it's beautiful...it's perfect
    when i went to arezzo last year, i saw piazza grande.
    i think that it could be perfect for new moon....
    but montepulciano is ok!!perfect!!!

    si, l'italia è bellissima!!! Montepulciano è molto carina, ma avrei preferito che avessero girato le scene a Volterra... va bè, non vedo l'ora di vedere il film!
    Le date in cui saranno in Italia, probabilmente variano dal 25 al 30 Maggio!!!

    But Pro Loco agency and Comune don't confirm the rumors yet about the date!!
  • TeamRosalie · 8 months ago

    --taylors#1girl--
  • gedem · 8 months ago
    They should really use Volterra. It would fit so much better with the storyline and look much more realistic. Montepulciano is beautiful, but so not Volterra!

  • Amanda · 8 months ago
    That's how I pitured Volterra to look like when I was reading New Moon. The real Volterra is close but I pitured it to look exactly like Montepulciano does. But both of the cities are beautiful. It doesn't matter to me which one they use; I think it should be filmed in the real Volterra Italy. But I pictured to to look more like Montepulciano. So Which ever one they use, will be great.
  • emmett's girl · 8 months ago

  • erin · 7 months ago

    Nope your actualy...WRONG!!
    You cant believe Everything in mags bc they lie!!
    I saw a video of him and he has said many times that these
    things are 100% not true!!! I'm sure you probably read the one about
    him washing his hair only once a week too but once again...not true.
    And it's ok I fell for it too but then I knew otherwise.
    Just be careful what you read next time:)

  • MMM · 7 months ago
    OK, i understand it can be difficult to figure out what italy is like for someone who's never been here. Italy is a State with one capital (Rome) and is divided in 20 parts (called "regioni"). Tuscany is ONE of these regions. It has one main city (Firenze / Florence) and MANY other cities and towns. Volterra and Montepulciano are two of these other towns, they are small, settled on hills and almost of the same period. Neither Volterra nor Montepulciano has a square fountain in the main plaza, but they both look quite like the town described in the book... even if Volterra is the true one...

    BYE

    P.S: for the Italians: scusate le ovvietà, ma mi sembrava opportuno chiarire un attimo le idee a chi non si rende conto di come è fatto un paese che non ha mai visto. Ho letto qualcuno chiedere addirittura la differenza tra Toscana e Montepulciano! mi sembrava doveroso

    My daughter is going to Europe in June. She will miss them shooting. What a beautiful place. I have a good friend who lives in Rome who invited me to her wedding in Tuscany. I pictured the same scenery for the backdrop for Volterra. Would the stairway of the Vicoli di Montepulciano, be a prefect place for the entry way into the Volturi's lair? Of course they would have to spook it up more.

  • coco<3 · 6 months ago
    wat? wat is 'todi'?
  • erin · 7 months ago
    i really dont think there is going to be any sort of confirmation of where they are shooting, for obvious reasons they would want to keep it as quiet as possible, but how are they going to shoot that HUGE crowd scene within the city (and the bright yellow porche screaming up the road) without people knowing about it? Its not like Montepulciano is just going to be PACKED with people wearing red on any given day! lol.
  • trizn · 7 months ago
    As long as they make Edward look great in the Volterra/Clock tower scene, it's fine by me. Montepulciano is a beautiful place, too. I love the brick houses/buildings. It's so romantic.

    edward cullen or rpatz is the most gorgeous, coolest and hottest vampire!
    my mom totally has a crush on him! well i like him too! but if i should say rpatz might not always be the fans choice- i don't care- rpatz is cool! yeah! ># D
    he displays a more deeper aura than the others, his eyes totally gives a deep intensity well he is a vampire! ahaa
    rpatz is totally the perfect role for a vampire, dward cullen. he is totally the unexpected guy that you'll ever know, for a vampire role that is!
    hihi
    saying my part!
    ># )
    oh ya this is from my mom;

  • Jaque · 6 months ago
    At first I didn't know why everyone was so excited about "Twilight" I didn't know what was so exciting about it. I went to the movies with my friends to check out what the excitement was all about. After I watched the movie I fell in love with it I started reading the books and they were grreeaatt!!! Im not the type of person who gets excited over a movie or a book, but I guess there is a first time for everything. And now I am so anxious to see who makes up the Voluri coven, and I can't waith to see all the scenes done in Italy I love Italy and I think the movie is going to be great.
  • emmy · 6 months ago

  • LOVEMESUMEDWARDCULLEN<3 · 6 months ago
    and couldnt u imagine where they mention in the book edward and alice walking down those streets with the volturi following and they have cloaks on
  • jacobs own brand of heroine · 6 months ago
    i actually agree with alot of people, the news and stuff said that they werent going to make any more videos,but we should be lucky,they r filming it.....but it would be alittle more relatable for stepahnie to shoot the movie where it is writen. in the book at bellas party...brilliant exactly what i thought, and when edward leaves her......but the pics....i suspected dark alleys, a big space where edward walks out to expose himself....not walled in areas.but oh well i d realy care as long as every one does there best which they all do....and at least makes it relatiable...i will watch it over 103 times the exact same way i did for twilight..... luv u guys keep up the gggod work!!

    Hi all.
    I (was born and) live in Montepulciano and I love it, but even Volterra is magic.
    Simply they are two (slightly) different things.
    I travelled so many times near Volterra with my byke and every time I stopped there, even for 1 minute at least, to breath that air on the alleys.
    During the film shoots (just on front of my house sometimes) there was sooooo much confusion, all the extras with red cloaks everywhere and the yellow porsche running just under my windows ...
    I just want say that, strangely enough, in the past there REALLY was a fountain on main square of Montepulciano. It was octagonal and on the same place where the production placed the fake one. It was dismounted on 1930 or so and the remaining pieces are on public park now. Someone published old photo and draws some weeks ago.
    My suggest for you all is come and see both Montepulciano and Volterra !

    this is a beautiful place-thanks for sharing your pics with us.

    it really doesn't matter where they filmed the scenes, as long as they were able to film in Itlay. if people never told us that it wasn't filmed in Volterra, then we would never be the wiser and would enjoy the film as it is. so relax a bit and just enjoy the fact that the film is done and will be out in a few months for our enjoyment.

    I went to Montepulciano last month! I happened to be staying with friends who live in Chiusi and we took a trip there! IT WAS AMAZING! Stood in THE doorway RP stood and ate in the cafe where they did all his make up!! It was amazing..beautiful place. And yes Volterra is no where near as picturesque as Montepulciano...although they did have to build the fountain specially for the film!
  • teamedwardgirl · 1 week ago
    NEW MOOON IS AMAZING - I saw it last week, Montepulciano is beautiful, but I thought it was Assisi at first...I went there in October and it looks just like it!
