Posted by Moaning_Myrtle Jun 23rd 2008

Oh my gosh! Everyone's comments are so funny ; ) "wheres the united statess!?!?!" "WHERE IS THE ******* TRAILER?!?!?!?!?" "WHAT ABOUT AMERICA!!!!!!!!!! DOES ANYBODY KNOW!" ...hahaha everyone is, like, freaking out about the release and the non-apparent trailer = D ~Myrtle~ P.S. those are actually peoples quotes-- if you're wondering...


Posted by yues_woman Jun 23rd 2008

I'm suddenly jealous of Egypt and Belgium. Well Aussie HP fans, looks like it's time for us to protest again. That, or we could just download a bootleg of HBP before it comes out here, because that's exactly what happens every time we get a film late! Oh well, it'll save half the country from having to buy a movie ticket! I know summer holidays don't start until December, but c'mon! Chances are the film will be rated M15+ anyway, so why wait for the schools to go on holiday first?


Posted by col Jun 23rd 2008

okay, I can work with belgium, whos for that?? Anyone???? Anyone???


Posted by Quidditchgurl90 Jun 23rd 2008

Oh yay...i so can't wait to see this movie!!!


Posted by the_shrieking_snack Jun 23rd 2008

Posted by halfbloodprince6 Jun 23rd 2008

Posted by felixfelicis888 Jun 23rd 2008

150 days for us americans!!!!!


Posted by hughagrid Jun 23rd 2008

YAY!!! but wheres the US?!!?!?!?! ACCIO TEASER TRAILER!!!!!


Posted by Alex Jun 23rd 2008

what the hell.... why do australia get it later again! First twilight now HBP, GRRRR


Posted by yues_woman Jun 23rd 2008

Okay Andrew, I'm thinking you're going to have to add the U.S date here since people seem to have forgotten that the U.S release of November 21st has been out for ages and that it is actually included to the right of their screen in mugglenets list of "Release Dates". Seriously guys, open your eyes.


Posted by hpninjaskills Jun 23rd 2008

I could care less about the release dates. I WANT TO KNOW WHERE THE TRAILER IS, WHEN IT'S COMING OUT, AND IF WE'RE EVER GOING TO SEE IT! Good god, this is driving me mad.


Posted by Popsy Jun 24th 2008

*is not very happy with WB*


Posted by Wand Jun 24th 2008

duuude why is NZ getting it so late!!! i swore the hp movies would be the only ones i musttt not watch online and to watch them first in the cinemas how annoying its gunna be to actually be put under that test!!!! ATLEAST THE DATES ARE OUT AN I HAVE SOMETHING TO SQUEALLLLLL ABOUT!!!!!!! DE 11th will come sooooooooon!!! yeah it will!!!!!!!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEE


Posted by modern_marauder Jun 24th 2008

WHAT!!!!???? December the 11th!!! No way! This is like 20 days after Europe basically! What did we ever do to WB to deserve this?


Posted by princess_lisa Jun 24th 2008

Ok, I think it's time for those of us in Aus and NZ to start petitioning this again! Dec 11 is far to late - we don't want the movie ruined for us! Just because we are further away, it means nothing! if we can download it online the day it's released everywhere else, I'm sure they can get it into cinema's the same time.


Posted by libberino Jun 24th 2008

DECEMBER 11 for aus!? man we truly are at the butt end of the world... that sucks!


Posted by GIngERnuTs_RoX Jun 24th 2008

Well I must agree my fellow aussie's and nz's december 11!?!?! come on they have to be joking geezzzz. =O


Posted by evanna11 Jun 24th 2008

I want to go to Belgium! YAY, for the 19th or 20th of Nobember! (BTW, I think SinitchSeeker removed it from their site..)


Posted by Missalicious Jun 24th 2008

Psh! fine, don't release it in the US! I've been wanting to vacation to London for a long time anyway!! Jerks.


Posted by Crookshanks93 Jun 24th 2008

Hey! 11th of December?! What is this? :( :( Why must we Aussie fans get everything late!! I'm already upset abouting getting Breaking Dawn and Twilight the movie later than the rest of the world... and this is just the icing on the cake! Grrr...


Posted by Erfa Jun 24th 2008

Er... never heard of Egypt? Have you heard about the pyramids then? Or perhaps a sphinx, which is even featured in Harry Potter? And by the way, there's about 80 million people there. I bet they have one or two Harry Potter fans. Jeez, never heard of Egypt...


Posted by lunalovegood30 Jun 24th 2008

OMG, the Philippines would watch HBP on the 20th! I'm so excited! I can't wait! =D We're lucky we're to watch it earlier than other countries!


Posted by Harry1Potter1Loony Jun 24th 2008

Go to schools!! :S:S HOW COME PEOPLE DON'T KNOW IF EGYPT EXISTS OR NOT!?!?!?! EGYPT is in the northern part of Africa and a lot of people are fans to the Harry Potter series not just ONE OR TWO!!! The movies were an immediate success and the theaters get so crowded that when the movie start you hear cheers that can make a building collapse :D I am not overdoing it...It's the truth. I am Egyptian and i am a Die Hard Harry Potter fan.. I have a drawer full of HP stuff from magazine snippets to little pictures i bought from the street :D But anyway YAY WE ARE THE FIRST TO GET THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!! SOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED! Just to add the Harry Potter series in Egypt are the no.1 best seller foreign books! So to correct some people : EGYPT KNOWS HARRY POTTER!


Posted by harrypotter4lyf Jun 24th 2008

Screw the trailer, what the HELL is up with the release dates for Australia? I mean, cmon Americans, if you don't know that you are getting it forst then you have been living under a rock. But that's just unfair that countries like Australia are getting it last. Seriously, we have a huge fan population, and we are undergraded just cause we have less people. Screw Warner Brothers.


Posted by jackso Jun 24th 2008

It sometimes amazes me how ethnocentric many Americans can be. Often other countries get movies before America. Anyway, 11 Dec for Australia. Obviously they have put it back to cash in on school holidays in december. They tried this last time, but then pushed it forward due to demand. They better bring it forward again!


Posted by PottyforPotter Jun 24th 2008

YAY!! This is great! It made my day! Singapore gets it one day ahead of the U.S.!! But of course, the dates may not necessarily mean that my country's getting it before the U.S., there's still the fact that 12pm here could be 12am the next day in the U.S.A... Really glad to know this though!! I'll have to change my countdown now... ;)


Posted by jackso Jun 24th 2008

All Australians, email Warner Brothers. Anyone got a relevant email address?


Posted by dont_look_down Jun 24th 2008

ok before, i was one of the people saying "just be patient people, the trailer should be coming soon." Now ive got to admit... whats up WB? maybe they are indeed skipping the teaser altogether and going straight for the theatrical trailer. either way, only time will reveal.


Posted by modern_marauder Jun 24th 2008

I'm with you jackso. We need to find an email address and attack! ANZACS reunite (okay so this is no where near to what they did ) so maybe it can be ANZPA (australia new zealand potter army). But just because we are isolated from all the other countries doesn't mean we should suffer like this! And it's not even a financial wise move for WB. We'll all download it or something.... okay we'll all still see it in the movies but still! NOT HAPPY JANE!


Posted by hermy0211 Jun 24th 2008

I was like..where's Korea...then I found it..AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST. DECEMBER 18TH??!?!?!?!?!?!?!? NOOOOOOOO


Posted by Fantasy Jun 24th 2008

When is the Irish release date???? Probably the same as the UK? I hate the way everyone thinks Ireland is part of the United Kingdom...


Posted by hermionesfuturehusband Jun 24th 2008

We get release dates,photose,sewing thread,pics of collectibles but NO TEASER TRAILER!By the way in the USA it is being released on November 21.


Posted by eponine_thenard Jun 24th 2008

DECEMBER 11!!!! now come on... seriously people who release movies... seriously? that's way too long to wait.


Posted by MagicMaker222 Jun 24th 2008

I feel so bad for the people who live in Hong Kong because they will be the last people in the world to be able to see the film! It's hard enough for those of us in the U.S and we only have to wait until Nov 21st. COME ON TRAILER


Posted by mrs_black Jun 24th 2008

OMG why do countries like egypt and belgium get it before the UK?!?!?! I MEAN ITS A BRITISH BOOK FOR PETE'S SAKE! i mean it would be bad enough if the US got it before us (sorry americans, but we should at least get it on the same day as it IS british and it would be pretty unfair if you got it before us- argue and hate me all you like but i am entiteled to my own point of view, thank you [and yes, i know you dont have your date yet!]) but other countries? you know what? i might just fly to belgium to watch it! oh bugger it'd be in dutch wouldnt it... bloody hell suppose ill have to wait then :(


Posted by Kamion Jun 24th 2008

@ adriennecray -------------(3)And I wonder why the heck Belgium, Egypt gets it first. I've never heard of that place. How many Potter fans even live there?------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- --- Consider the curious fact that there are other places in the world then your own hometown. And also that with their dense population there might be quite a few Potter fans living there.


Posted by the_shrieking_snack Jun 24th 2008

Here you go Aussies and NZ: http://www.warnerbros.com /main/help/customer_servi ce.html Remove all spaces and "give 'em hell from us!" Yeah, its the feedback forum, but hey, just repeatedly send em your complaints and crash their flipping server.:)


Posted by harrypotterfan392102 Jun 24th 2008

What about America?!!!


Posted by dinky_diddy_kins Jun 24th 2008

For all of you wondering why they did not put the American date up: Read the headline of the post this is a list of INTERNATIONAL release dates. WB is based in the USA so we would be a DOMESTIC release. @adriennecray: You have never heard of Belgium or Egypt ? Wow...I have nothing to add to that but...Wow!?


Posted by dont_look_down Jun 24th 2008

@the_shrieking_snack: done. what did u put the topic under? i highlighted "other"


Posted by the_shrieking_snack Jun 24th 2008

Ok, follow the leader everyone: "Where's America's release date?!?!?"


Posted by tiassa Jun 24th 2008

"Ok, follow the leader everyone: "Where's America's release date?!?!?" " --on the right side of your screen, under Release Dates, exactly where it has been all the past monthes
