@dont_look_down: Yeah, "other" fit the bill nicely. isn't it funny that they say "your feedback is very important to us" hehehe...not for long.... >:) Just to tick off my superiors: When's the US release date of HBP?!?!?!?


Posted by ally62442 Jun 24th 2008

When do you reckon the UK premier will be? I went last year but cant remember how long before the premier was before the release date. Any ideas?


Posted by hpfan112 Jun 24th 2008

Yeah!!! November the 20th in Greece!! I can


Posted by hpfan112 Jun 24th 2008

What happened to my comment??? Why is it only the half? I said that I can


Posted by Baher131 Jun 24th 2008

Yeah, i get to see it on the 19th (Egypt). That's a whole day before everyone else in the whole world ... whoa I need to sit down... @adriennecray: Dude that was out of line, of course there are fans in Egypt, about 9,500,000 people.


Posted by _Kettleburn_ Jun 24th 2008

How come so many countries get it before America? Strange...


Posted by Myra Jun 24th 2008

I'm so glad I'm a Malaysian. Second to the earliest date. =3


Posted by gandalfxj9 Jun 24th 2008

You Australians should create a peition to move the releases date earlier. It worked for Ootp! ;)


Posted by ancira Jun 24th 2008

YEAH!! Mexico gets it 1 day before the UK, though the 6 hour difference makes it almost the same.


Posted by ancira Jun 24th 2008

shame I won


Posted by OneWingedAngel Jun 24th 2008

great!!!!!!!!!!!!... Peru nov 20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! viva la raza!!! XDD


Posted by ricki24 Jun 24th 2008

Well, I'm pretty sure for America the release date is still November 21st. I feel sorry for those who have to wait so long! :'( But I wish WB would give us the trailer already! I don't remember ever having to wait this long for a teaser! I don't know, they might actually skip it, but I hope not . >

Posted by rooon Jun 24th 2008

Posted by hpfan4444 Jun 24th 2008

Posted by goldfish Jun 24th 2008

Okay, seriously, people? Try READING the comments already here before posting one! People have mentioned about 20+ times that the US release date is November 21st. It's like people don't really want the answer and just want something to complain about, else they'd LOOK for the answer in the most rational place. Sheesh. :-P


Posted by Kamion Jun 24th 2008

@Baher131 ------------------------- ------------------------- ---------------------, of course there are fans in Egypt, about 9,500,000 people.---- think you forgot a zero, the population is closer to 95 million. but of course it could be that there are about 9 &


Posted by Froggyy1 Jun 24th 2008

According to IMDB the release date for the UNITED STSTES is NOVEMBER 21......


Posted by sparkling_jewel55 Jun 24th 2008

why is australia not till dec 11???? wqe got it like the day before the US time :K grrr...is not happy. but maybe theyll do a petition and change it like last time...


Posted by modern_marauder Jun 25th 2008

Warner Brothers, I am writing as I am curious as to why Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince's release date is December the 11th for Australia. I can hardly see this fair as around 57 countries will get to see it before Australians. I believe it should be moved foward along with New Zealand, Hong Kong, Korea and the other countries that recieved a rather late release date OR why not a single international release date? ---- This was what I sent into WB in other and the HP forum.


Posted by modern_marauder Jun 25th 2008

All Harry Potter fans should be treated equally and should therefore have the privlege of viewing Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on the same day. Thankyou. -- with this added on


Posted by Baher131 Jun 25th 2008

@Kamion: Actually the whole population is 75 million, but only about 25 million live in cities where Harry Potter is available, and of these 25 million are about 8 to 10 million fans. Trust me I would know since i live there...


Posted by princess_lisa Jun 25th 2008

Ok, does anyone know how to start a petition? I want to start one, but I don't know how, nor who it should be sent to. We need to move the release date for Australia and New Zealand as well as Hong Kong and Korea right up to a lot sooner than it's current date!


Posted by merry_sa Jun 25th 2008

I'm from south africa and I agree, all harry potter fans should get to watch the movie for the first time on the same day.


Posted by anglone01 Jun 25th 2008

UMMM AMERICA!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! if the trailer doesnt come out soon i might cry. no i will cry. alot.


Posted by claerwen7 Jun 25th 2008

WHAT ABOUT THE USA?! I GUESS WE DON'T COUNT, HUH? WHY DOES EVERYONE HATE US?! hehe, stupid question...


Posted by tiassa Jun 25th 2008

It can't come on the same day everywhere. I live in a country who only releases movies on thursdays(I know this is weird). It should however come within the same week, you should ask it that way so it would seem reasonable and they will listen to it. check the other comments, someone has already said where to email WB.


Posted by NBA Jun 25th 2008

Nov. 27 for the Middle East...can't wait!


Posted by dobbyXkreacher Jun 25th 2008

What about Canada!!!!!!!!! and the U.S!


Posted by dinky_diddy_kins Jun 25th 2008

@dobbyXkreacher : I just read on Google news that Half-Blood Prince will not be released in North America. Has to do with a campagn by the PMRC and the Coalition of American Youth. Bummer.


Posted by miss_black Jun 25th 2008
