Half-Blood Prince teaser poster?
Half-Blood Prince teaser poster? Over the past couple of months, hundreds of you have sent in links to an alleged Half-Blood Prince teaser poster that was confirmed to be a fake. Now, a new one is making its way around the web and we want to tell you about it before it gets out of hand. CanMag.com has a picture of a reader standing next to a new "teaser poster" in the UK. It depicts a green Dark Mark with the caption "Everything Will Change" at the top.

Two reasons why this could be fake: 1) It's blurry, as all fakes-taken-in-real-environments are. And 2) The caption is very similar to lines from other Potter films (most notably "It's changin' out there" in Order of the Phoenix).

UPDATE: We've learned from TheDailySnitcher.com that this is indeed fake. A real one to come soon? We sure hope so!

I could care less about the posters, I want the movie.


Posted by kpotter24 Mar 28th 2008

yes I realize going 'first' is lame, but I never have been before and it's somewhat exciting, especially since I've been coming to this website for like four years and this is my first 'first'. About the poster -- blah, blah, blah. Looks super fake to me. I want more stills!


Posted by Arry Mar 28th 2008

How about 'Everything is going to change now isn't it?' for a comparision for a similar line? I do think it's possible that it is the poster, actually.

It's fake per Warner Bros. http://www.thedail ysnitcher.com/news/hp6-tr ailer-poster-update.html# jreactions


Posted by hpintwense06 Mar 28th 2008

it is realllly blurry. it probably is fake. then again, i thought that the opening paragraph of the 7th book that leaked a week before the book came out was fake, and it was in fact the real thing. =/

I saw this image yesterday while browsing through google.I think its a fake. I must admit i do sorta want the death eater symbol in some part of the poster. Im happy that the movie will be out soon :]


Posted by ickle_diddykins Mar 28th 2008

That picture is so fake that the person standing next to it isn't even real. :D


Posted by angelina_johnson92 Mar 28th 2008

The picture is obviously fake.


Posted by heronxobsessed74 Mar 28th 2008

we have been getting NO real information from this movie! No pictures. No posters. No teaser trailer yet, either! Argh!


Posted by stephenoreilly Mar 28th 2008

Ive seen this in my local yesterday!!! How can it be fake??? whose saying it is????????


Posted by LadyEvelyn Mar 28th 2008

Hmm...I swear there was a poster like this for GoF. It had the Dark Mark and pretty much the same tagline.


Posted by xoxoshannonxoxo Mar 28th 2008

hmmmm...I think its a fake. But who knows?? It COULD be real. (but I doubt it) But who cares about this??? We want the MOVIE!!!! ;-)


Posted by ashleyyosaurus Mar 28th 2008

Wait, so the one with the cave is fake as well? It looks pretty good to me.


Posted by CROOKSHANKS99 Mar 28th 2008

yeah im confused is the one in the cave a fake or not i can understand the dark mark one but the cave one looks real confused. Hopefully someone has an answer!


Posted by oasismeltdown Mar 28th 2008

This looks like the real teaser poster here! --> http://www.movieweb.com/m ovies/film/07/3607/poster 1.php


Posted by oasismeltdown Mar 28th 2008

Oh, and this one might be the real one as well. Sorry for double-posting. --> http://canmag.com/nw/1058 9-half-blood-prince-tease r-poster


Posted by theQzone27 Mar 29th 2008

i had sent this address in at one time but never heard back if was received. i for one think that this could be the genuine thing,what do youpeople think: http://www.wild aboutmovies.com/movies/Ha rryPotter6MovieTrailer-Ha rryPotterAndTheHalfBloodP rinceMovieTrailer.php


Posted by ashleyyosaurus Mar 29th 2008

The second one you posted, oasismeltdown, is identified in the article as being fake. It was fake-job-well-done, though!


Posted by ashleyyosaurus Mar 29th 2008

If the cave one has been marked as falsified, why are people still bringing it up? The "real thing" will be released officially and obviously by WB. Just wait for it.


Posted by halfbloodprincess96 Mar 29th 2008

Okay, call me crazy, but this looks more like the grinch when jim cerry played it then the dark mark. :.o


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

OMG!!!!!!!!! THERE IS A REAL ONE AT http://www.movieweb.com/m ovies/film/07/3607/poster 1.php THIS MAKES ME SO MAD!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE SENT THIS INFROMATION IN LIKE THREE TIMES TO THE "SUBMIT NEWS" SECTION AND THEY HAVEN'T DONE A SINGLE THING ABOUT IT!!!!!!! I HAVE POSTED ABOUT THIS POSTER ON THE COMMENT BOARDS MANY TIMES ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM ALMOST POSITIVE THAT THIS IS REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT HAS TO BE, BECAUSE IT IS ON A OFFICAL MOVIE DATABASE WEBSITE!!!!!! CHECK THIS POSTER OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by slugclubgirl77 Mar 29th 2008

I don't really care about the poster! I want to see like a trailer but mostly i want the movie now!!!!


Posted by Roonilwwazlib Mar 29th 2008

The phrase "Everything Will Change" is from the third movie. They wouldn't use the same one twice.


Posted by Mrsroonil_wazlib Mar 29th 2008

I'm kinda sad it was a fake, because i liked the picture of harry and dumbledore in the cave, but the quote thing at the top has been a little overused


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

WHO SAYS THE ONE IN THE CAVE IS A FAKE?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

The article doesn't say ANYTHING about the one in the cave being a FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by maki Mar 29th 2008

the cave one IS fake guys... WB said so AGES ago!!


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

Why would a movie database website post it on their website then? They're giving out false infromation!


Posted by Shirley_hpf Mar 29th 2008

Why do they keep bothering us with all this fake stuff. xD Well, I'll just wait for a real poster, hope we will see one soon!


Posted by maki Mar 29th 2008

that fake cave poster came out ages ago... everyone thought it was real and thats probably why that webpage has it as the movie's poster... later it was said by WB (and I think that by the VERY talented fan who made it too) that it was indeed fanmade... but that webpage isnt keeping up with harry potter news much, after all it isn't a website specialized in potter. and that's why they arent listening to you when you report that poster to mugglenet's staff, because they already showed it and they already said it wasnt real.


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

This annoys me to no extent when people put out fake posters and claim them to be real! Whats the point? I wish these people would just wait until the real thing comes out.


Posted by garypotter21 Mar 29th 2008

"Everything will change" is the tagline on one of the Prisoner of Azkaban posters. They wouldn't use it again.


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

I'm a little confused. When you go to the daily snitcher, it is showing a diffrent poster, one that obviously isn't for the movie. But they don't have the picture of the one here. Why is it saying then that the poster here has been confirmed fake by Daily Snitcher?


Posted by codeone Mar 29th 2008

The best way to tell the cave poster is fake is because the silhouette of Dumbledore is the outline of Richard Harris's Dumbledore not Michael Gambon's. I also think WB will distribute a press release to the popular fan sites as the news of a poster is released... rarely would it appear in public without any fanfare. Whoever did the cave shot though - it's beautiful.


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

I'm depressed about all these fake posters...they get you all hyped up for it and then you find out they're all fake. I'm so sad:(


Posted by quidditchfn1 Mar 29th 2008

I'm confused, why would anyone spend time tryng to make a FAKE poster?


Posted by REMiHEARTSRUPERT Mar 29th 2008

Yeah quidditchfn1 I don't know why people would do that either. But you gotta admit those people have a talent at that!! These people have got skills =)


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

Fake posters depress me. *sighs*


Posted by bEtHyBoP13 Mar 29th 2008

At the rate this year is going (really fast!!) the movie'll be out before we know it! And I can't wait! =]


Posted by alexxx Mar 29th 2008

dang get me all excited. on the one where its harry and dumbledore in the cave it looks like, it says "im safe with you, harry." is that actually a quote because i remember one going something like I AM NOT WORRIED, I AM WITH YOU but not im safe with you harry? whateva I WANT REAL POSTERS, STOP GETTIN US HARRY LOVERS ALL EXCITED JUST TO BE SHOT DOWN


Posted by Ganger345 Mar 29th 2008

I know I'm depressed too.


Posted by professorlongbottom Mar 29th 2008

These fake posters are just a watse of everyone's time.


Posted by trueligth Mar 30th 2008

I did not like it at all, and if not the real one it is really depressing


Posted by jimmy2121 Mar 31st 2008

Okay I will be very unsurprised if that first poster titled. "I AM SAFE AS LONG AS I AM WITH YOU HARRY" is NOT the real teaser poster. It is of the cave, and it looks like what the teaser poster would be of, and it is a picture from the movie that we can tell. I will laugh if it is and come out and point out to you all that I SAID IT WAS the real one. T remenber when the teaser poster of DOBBY from COS came out and you all said it was a fake. HMMM came out to be real didn't it? Too many things out here are said to be fake and then turn out to be real. I guess Mugglenet has to say that so that WB don't sue them. Kind of sad really. Wasn't there also a post out her from MASTER EMERSON that said the scans of DH were not real WHEN THEY WERE-- (again) HMMMMM-- I rest my case.


Posted by cheers_watermelon Mar 31st 2008

Why is it always "Everything Will Change"? It's really annoying! Other wise the poster looks really cool and I'm excited!!!


Posted by Mintorateoishii Mar 31st 2008

I like how both these fake posters are better than the real print ad we saw a picture of earlier.
