Sweet! NOW how about that teaser, WB. =P
YES ...finally something more on HBP 2nd?
it's about time some news came freakin in
And now i fully expect the trailer to come out with the Dark Knight because of these pictures and previes (which are comfermed by WB). So in the USA Today article...do they imply that Harry and Ginny almost kiss in the movie? Like they never really kiss in the entire movie? and the Death Eaters at the Burrow...how are they gonna pull that one off? Wouldn't the Burrow have protective charms and stuff around it? Whatever, i'm happy there's some news!
the newspaper report sounds really interesting...seems like this could be one of those bigger new weeks...like a roller coaster ride as andrew described speaking of which...theyve got a lot to discuss this week in mugglecast!
Yay! Trailer soon now, PLEASE WB!!
FINALLY we get something! Even if it is just a few paragraphs of info and a blurry pic. By the article with Ginny/Harry it seems like there will be more Ron/Hermione than in the actual book but i dont really understand that 'shoelace' thing with Ginny and Harry. I can feel it-this movie is gonna be amazing.
What The Bloody Hell! They ALMOST kiss! That aint cool! yay top 10 but POO! no kiss:(that aint the way the book was! shame shame but at least the info is coming. please let the trailer follow!
YEIII!! OMG!!! Today was full of HBP!! i hope this trend continuessssssss.... love this book and love almost every sneek peek of it!!
Like the article except for the "they almost kiss but get interupted by death eaters" part. HELLO, there better be a kiss somewhere in that film. That is my favorite part of the book. While reading HBP I was screaming inside when Harry and Ginny kissed. I do like the idea of a lot of sexual tension between the two. Bonnie did such a great job in OOTP with her longing looks at Harry when Cho was mentioned. Can not wait till November!!!!
TEASER PLEEEEASE?!?
YES! hopefully the teaser will come out really soon now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D
I can't wait to see how Rupert will play Ron after he consumes the chocolates spiked with love potion. hehehe
umm, idk, but the article made it sound like they're never going to kiss. Is this just the woman trying to hype it up? Cuz, if you didn't know lady, the book already came out, and we know whats supposed to happen. lol. and I'm glad to see that the hogwarts robes will make an appearence in the film! Sticking to the facts! Way to go W.B.! pfff. bloody film makers.
that picture of Hermione looks like every single other picture of her sitting in class.
WHAT??!!! There BETTER be an actual Ginny /Harry snog - and more than one!!! I'm praying this is some sort of tease and that there really will be some luving. If not... I am pretty sure I won't be the only royally ticked off fan.
yay for more STUFF! now..um..give us a freaking teaser? please?
Is it just me, or is Emma Watson absolutely beautiful!?
I agree, if there is no Ginny/ Harry kiss in the film than the fans will be furious ( me too) but why would the kiss come in the beginning of the movie.... it takes them most of book 6 to figure out that they are in love...
If they don't kiss I swear I'm going to kill someone ;)
I have a feeling the romantic scenes between dan and bonnie are going to be a little awkward...
No, dpholst, it's not just you. lol.
yay!!! now hopefully we'll get a trailer soon!! awww bonnie and daniel are soo cute together :-)
what do they mean "about to kiss" they have to the movies always change everything!!!!
ohhhh, man! i took "preview" to mean "trailer," and i got all excited. i was hyperventilating and covered from head to toe in goosebumps. wow. still calming down. the pictures look great, though, and the improv. sounds interesting.
Yes...so it begins!!!
Yes...so it begins!!!
OMG LOOK AT HERMIONE'S HAIR! I bet you Micah's pissing himself with excitement right now
Okay its cool that we have info but.... whats this whole deal of ALMOST kiss?? I mean in the book they do kiss. I WANT A KISS! Thats my favorite part! And this whole death eater comes and stuff? Uh, hello, they kiss in the common room after they when the quidditch cup, no death eaters included. I don't but I really want that kiss in the common room! I better have it or I WILL be mad. The director was good the last time, lets see if he can do it again.
IT WAS ABOUT TIME!
Itsa about time we got something worth looking at. We have went forever without a scarp of news on HBP. Hopefully this means we will be getting out teaser some time soon.
cant wait for trailer!
What a heap of crap. Ginny and Harry don't even kiss!
we know they always change stuff and cut things off but sometimes they go a lil to far with stuff.. lol
awwwwwWWWWWWWWWWWW! yesss!!!! I almost jumped up and started dancing when I saw these posts. I actually *did* wave my hands in the air when I read the article. I'm pathetic. but seriously, this is great - let the floods of news come! come on, WB, you're killing all the Mugglenet readers....and some besides :D
I like the picture and the aricle, I am ready for the trailer or anything more from this movie. GO HP GO!!!! :) ;) =)
Ok, so I'm quite a bit nervous about the whole throwing in an entirely random scene. Harry and Ginny being interupted by death eaters? Seriously. But I really doubt that they'll leave out an H/G kiss, because if they do, it will be harder to accept that the characters in a relationship for a significant amount of time. It wouldn't make very much sense for a 15 and 16 year old to just sort of skip over anything physical. And the alternative, leaving out a relationship entirely, would make it harder to believe Harry is pining over her in DH, and it'll really psst of the fans, haha.
Too bad Daniel Radcliffe and Bonnie Wright don't seem to have any chemistry together on screen... That might make those scenes awkward and not believable.
Yates is making me mad. OOTP was my lease fav movie and he better not screw this one up too! whats with this "almost kiss" deal!?! i agree with u all above, i will be so pissed if they dont kiss!!! hopefully the newspaper is just trying to leave some mystery for ppl who havent read the books...but thats not how it sounded... :( and did anyone notice they called poor Bonnie the wrong name? :( i thought it said "Knight" not "Wright" but since no one else seemed to have caught it i will have to look again... BUT THERE HAD BETTER BE A FLIPPIN KISS! I'm going to go write to mugglecast...
Okay, eveyone is overreacting about the Harry and Ginny almost kiss. It is one scene guys! If the Deatheaters show up like Yates says, that means this almost kiss happens at Christmas at the burrow. That leaves a whole other semester for them to kiss. Besides, Daniel already said awhile ago that he and Bonnie kiss. There is nothing to worry about!
ok well if ur sure Clean0002, then we can have an almost kiss and a real one. as long as there is a real one :) o and about Bonnie's name, they do call her Bonnie Knight in the third paragraph but get it right in the caption...whats up with that?
i didnt even notice the name thing wow. i guess i was so excited just to get the news i skipped over that but read it right in my mind
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I LOVE that they didn't kiss! Not that I'm obsessed with Harry and want him all to myself. Its because people who haven't read the book may think like... uhhhh is he just going to kiss someone else every movie?? I love the tease, then in the 7th it will be more exciting when they kiss :)
OHHHHHHHH F* YEANOW THATCS WATTTTT IA M TALKING ABOUT TRAILER TRAILER IS GONNA COME OUT FINALLY SWEEEEEEEEETTTTTTT OH MY GOD HARRYYY GINNY :P BEST BEST CUTEST COUPLE EVER :)
Holy hell, is that Lavender behind her Hermione? No wonder Ron starts to sway, she looks like a veela compared to Hermy there! And I'm really trying to take the shoelace thing seriously, but come on! How sexual can tying someone shoe be? Couldn't she like.. button up his shirt? And obviously there WILL be a real kiss... I'd be disappointed if there wasn't any hit and misses before it. That burrow scene is probably one of those. It's just to tease and make us giddy as we watch the film.

They better kiss! HBP is the book where H/G shines! There is no other time to devlop that, or do it. If it will be in DH it will be out of nowhere. Stupid WB.
I can't believe they got her name wrong! That seems like a total slap in the face. Maybe someone had their mind on The Dark Knight when they wrote it. I like Bonnie WRIGHT. She's quite good.
OHEMGEE. now we can talk about hermione's hair again! ....sorry. still slightly bitter over the fact that we still don't have a trailer. haha.
I. NEED. A. TRAILER. NOW! :(
