'New Moon' Opening Early in France?

LimeLife.com is reporting:

Trip to France, anyone? We might have to if we want to be the first to see New Moon. Reports are saying the second movie in the Twilight series is set to open in France 2 days earlier than in the U.S.

According to the New Moon trailer that debuted in France, the movie is set to open on November 18. It's set to open in the United States on November 20. Does that mean France is going to see Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart reprise their roles as Edward Cullen and Bella Swan before anyone in the U.S.?

Well, we're still hoping the U.S. will change their mind about that November 20 opening date. Yes, most movies do open on Fridays, which November 20 is. But some movies that are expected to be extremely popular actually open on Wednesdays, giving them a 5-day opening weekend. For instance, the recently released Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, opened on a Wednesday; as will Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

There's still 5 months until November, so we're hoping Summit will change their minds and decide to release New Moon on November 18. We think they will since they surely won't want all of France seeing the movie, and possibly spoiling it, before anyone in the United States.

i'm french, and "yes" new moon will be in theatre november 18. I know, it's strange to watch the movie before the american... But in france all movies open on wednesday. That's why we will watch new moon before us. I hope it won't do a war between usa and france ^^
