French Challenge!
Our next mission is to help France in the campaign. And just like we have been doing a lot lately, we will be tackling several media sources. First, we have two French entertainment websites to write to. They are Cinema-France and Comme au Cinema. We are also writing to two French entertainment magazines called Geek le Magazine (which is the French edition of the American magazine, Geek Monthly) and the ever so popular Premiere Magazine. The email addresses/ links at which to write to them are as follows:
Comme au Cinema- http://www.commeaucinema.com/contact.php (Note: This is a feedback form. When you write your letter, you will see a list of reasons under “Contact” for contacting Comme au Cinema. Click the second option that says “Vous souhaitez poser une question à la redaction, faire une suggestion :”. This is indicating that you want to ask the editor a question or send a suggestion. Then, fill out the form. You don’t have to fill out the section for your last name (Prénom), but you will definitely want to give them your first name (Nom), E-mail (in case they want to write back to you), subject (Sujet), and your message (Texte) where you will write your email.)
Cinema-France- press@gamekyo.com
Geek le Magazine- David Bianic, Editor in Chief: dbianic@geeklemag.com
Premiere Magazine- Gaël Golhen, Editor in Chief: gael.golhen@lagardere-active.com (Note: This magazine has already published an article about the Cherrybomb Distribution Campaign, but we want to tell them a little more about the movie itself and ask them to publish an article that gives a synopsis of the movie and maybe even leave a little reminder about the campaign. For this you might want to give them a few reviews from people who have already seen it, such as this one from Drfunkenberry.com.)
Just like we always tell you, when writing your email remember to be professional. Mention Rupert and Cherrybomb, and briefly tell them what this movie is about. Also, give them the link to our campaign site, the petitions page, the trailer, the offical Cherrybomb movie site, and our Rave Reviews section on Rupert’s performance in this film. You also might want to make a reference to his performances in other films. This could remind them that Rupert’s an incredible actor and make a point that Cherrybomb is another movie where he can have an opportunity to further show off his talents if it is released internationally.
Once again, when you have written your email, please let us know by posting comment below or by letting us know in the Cherrybomb Distribution Campaign thread in our forums. Good luck!
Thank you so much to everyone who has emailed!

Showbiz Tonight, TMZ, And People!
We thought it would be good to contact a few popular American media outlets to help us shed more attention on Cherrybomb and what we have accomplished so far. Remember the American deal is in talks but not confirmed the way we heard Britain was so it’s important to keep the buzzzzzzzz going!!!!
Showbiz Tonight just mentioned Rupert again and the whole Swine Flu so why can’t they talk about the fact that his fans helped his film get a movie deal? You can write to Showbiz Tonight by filling out this contact form.
We also thought it would be a good idea to contact TMZ. You can do so by clicking here and filling out a tip form.
And finally, we are going to do a Rupert Grint/Cherrybomb Challenge to coincide with this. We all know that every year People Magazine features an entire spread of many celebrities sex appeal, accomplishments for the year etc…. Rupert’s yet to be featured and with this being “Year of Grint” we owe it to him to it least nag People magazine and tell them that he deserves a spot as People’s Sexiest Ginger/Sidekick 2009. You can contact the editor of People at editor@people.com.
Think about all of the amazing things Rupert has done this year with photo-shoots, interviews etc…. Link or attach some of those photos from Blag or Daily Mail, link our Rave Reviews for Half Blood Prince, tell them about our campaign and mention the big news outlets that reported about it so they can see how much he’s been in the news. Shoot! Even the Swine Flu reports can help make him into this spread. Use all of your resources.
Do your best to “SELL” them. Put yourself in their shoes like if they were coming to you and your big magazine. What would they need to say to make you consider their candidate. 
There is a thread that was started on the ICM Forums if you need more ideas on what to write. You’re all pros at this point, though. But, if you do need tips just let us know!
Thank you to everyone who has emailed!

Italian Challenge!
Okay, we are going to help out or Italian friends this week! We are going to write to an Italian magazine called BestMovie. You may write to them by filling out their feedback form here. The website is in Italian, but in the feedback form all that is required is your First Name (Nome), Last Name (Cognome), E-mail, and your message (Testo del messaggio). If you don’t speak Italian, it’s okay. Just go ahead and write your letter in English. As usual, be polite and professional. Mention Rupert and Cherrybomb and tell all about the campaign. Of course, you’ll also want to tell them about our recent success in helping Cherrybomb get a UK distributor and that negotiations for a US distributor are in the works! And talk about the recent media buzz that has been surrounding it. Link them to the campaign site and the petitions page as well as the brand new official Cherrybomb movie site. Also, send them a link to the trailer on YouTube as well as our Rave Reviews section on the main site on Rupert’s performance in this film and give them a brief synopsis of what Cherrybomb is about. Lastly, another thing you could tell them that they might find interesting is that Cherrybomb was screeened at the 39th Gifonni Film Festival in July 2009. You may also want to send them a review from the festival written by SentieriSelvaggi.it. Read it in our media archives here.
When you send your email, please don’t forget to let us know in the comments below, or by making a post in the Cherrybomb Distribution Campaign Thread in our forums. Happy emailing!
