Description of IMAX Half-Blood Prince teaser
Description of IMAX Half-Blood Prince teaser Back in late June, we broke news of a "teaser trailer" coming with The Dark Knight in IMAX on July 18th. Last week, we learned that this teaser trailer is actually a 15-second preview.

A MuggleNet reader who works at an IMAX theater has provided us with a description of the trailer, as well as the one line of dialogue in it. We understand that some people may want to be surprised, so highlight in between the arrows below if you'd like to read it before Friday!

-->A black screen with Dumbledore saying "Once again I must ask you to do the impossible, Harry." After that, the title is displayed as well as the release date.<--

HEY GUYS READ THIS IS NOT FAIR! ARTHUR WEASELY NEARLY GETS KILLED! Megacalendars company has released today, in its website, a new image from 2009 Half-Blood Prince calendar, which possibly shows Harry and Dumbledore in the cave where the false Horcrux is. It's possible that it's a manipulation rather than an official image, but we hope WB confirms it soon. Also, new scans from Movie Magic magazine reveal that, since Bill was cut from the sixth movie, the werewolf Fenrir Greyback "attacks Harry, but Harry or (someone unseen) petrifies him in time. But Ron's Dad is not so lucky -- Fenrir mauls his face and nearly kills him."

Oh exciting! Short and sweet though i really cant wait to see the movie :)


Posted by InvisibleAparecium Jul 14th 2008

6 or 7? Well, at least it's SOMETHING.


Posted by kleigh629 Jul 14th 2008

WTH! God don't blink or you'll miss it during the previews... What's the point, WB? They just like screwing with us...


Posted by Edward88Italy Jul 14th 2008

If they didn't want to show too much, I've got to say they DID IT very well!


Posted by deathly_fan Jul 14th 2008

WTF, I most definetly agree with all you people above. I mean c'mon fifteen seconds. Yes, it's something, but it's a disappointing piece of crap. Why can't they just give us the trailer. We usually have the teaser trailer by now with the universal trailer only two months or more before the movie comes out. Jeez, Warner Bros. I really hope that Yates doesn't screw this movie up.


Posted by citylove3583 Jul 14th 2008

welll....that tells us a lot. wish they would just show it to us.


Posted by sevviesnapples Jul 14th 2008

whyyy must they do this to us....


Posted by ImmortalShark Jul 14th 2008

In the immortal words of Porky Pig. "Budee budee budee, that's all folks!"


Posted by BellaBlack7 Jul 14th 2008

Wow! A whole line! This teaser must have taken months of grueling work to prepare. At this rate, we should have a full length theatrical trailer about a week before the movie comes out.


Posted by Fia Jul 14th 2008

They freakin took out Bill and Fleur???? WTF??? Why?!?!? So Arthur gets attacked? What's with that?! Are they going to do Bill and Fleur's wedding in DH?? And 15 seconds? That's crap! We need a longer one!


Posted by ihavethepower Jul 14th 2008

u guys got me so excited for nothing. o well, it was quite close to what i guessed it was gonna be, which was WB logo, harry looking sad, hp logo. i got the shortness of it right.


Posted by the_shrieking_snack Jul 14th 2008

Its should be "Once again, I must ask you to do the impossible, Harry, and FIND ME THE FREAKING *REAL* TRAILER BEFORE I DO SOMETHING REALLY BAD!!!!!"


Posted by R_U_Sirius Jul 14th 2008

I don't think we could expect much more from 15 seconds. By the way, so far we just haven't met Bill in the movies. The emotional impact of Arthur getting torn-up will be far greater. Inaccurate? Incredibly. Harmful to the core story? No.


Posted by Fia Jul 14th 2008

LOL! BellaBlack7! I totally agree! Don't we usually have a really long trailer by now?


Posted by phoenix_knight Jul 14th 2008

Well Arthur Weaseley already got attacked by a FREAKIN snake in the 5th movie, now his face gets MAULED by Greyback?!? Poor Arthur, thi is sadistic!


Posted by Fia Jul 14th 2008

Totally! You've got to feel sorry for him!


Posted by axlgirl Jul 14th 2008

Are they frigging KIDDING us with this?!!!


Posted by HermioneIsMeX Jul 14th 2008

... woah, that's a lot. =|


Posted by phoenix_knight Jul 14th 2008

I mean i still love David Yates to as a director to the HP movies, but seriuosly, Why Arthur??? Now Molly has to be burdened with her husband eating raw meat, oh and don't forget her other son that has a missing ear and the one that's dead by the end of the series! Gosh! At least make Charlie or someone get mauled by Fenrir, not Arthur! now ppl will think he has bad luck or something :(


Posted by Beyond_The_Veil Jul 14th 2008

I KNEW IT. I said it would be a Dumbledore quote!


Posted by Firebolt7 Jul 14th 2008

wow f[_]ck WB...


Posted by Fia Jul 14th 2008

It must have taken a really long time to decide what to put in this totally worthless trailer...


Posted by Fia Jul 14th 2008

Pray God that the movie isn't as bad as OOTP!!!!


Posted by tiassa Jul 14th 2008

first of all, other commentors, TEASER trailer, don't forget that. and second, I find it very lame that it took WB that long to manage to film a dark screen. Not a good show of their talent


Posted by randomchat Jul 14th 2008

This seems canon.


Posted by hpninjaskills Jul 14th 2008

I actually find this exciting. That's one line that is in the movie, so that's pretty cool. :) I don't care that it's only 15 seconds, at least it's something.


Posted by Fia Jul 14th 2008

True talent, WB. True talent. Like tiassa said, it's lame, but then again, it's *sarcastically* almost impossible to film a dark screen.


Posted by the_shrieking_snack Jul 14th 2008

*screams*


Posted by rob1007 Jul 14th 2008

thats it? well i know its better than nothing but just... *sigh* i expected those 15 seconds 2 be a little more exciting...


Posted by paranoid4 Jul 14th 2008

FINNALLLLLLY!!!! SOME EFFIN NEWS :P


Posted by Ruubski Jul 14th 2008

The teaser is a black screen with Dumbledore's voice... OK.


Posted by LilyFan564 Jul 14th 2008

You have got to be kidding me!!! That's it??? We want a real teaser trailer!!!

Posted by heronxobsessed74 Jul 14th 2008

Well, since there's no teaser trailer, they're probably just saying, "Hey everyone! Guess what! We're making a movie!" But anyway. About Arthur being attacked and not Bill. This is making me nervous- very, very nervous- about the wedding. How is it possible that they're going to do it? Yet, how can they cut it? It's so important! It's a fun scene, plus Harry wouldn't have stayed at the Burrow as long if it weren't for the wedding, and it sets them up to go to Shell Cottage, AND he learns a lot about Dumbledore. If they cut it, I hope the rumors of it being replaced by Tonks and Lupin's wedding (and of those two then becoming the owners of Shell Cottage) are true. But how would Teddy being born fit in if they were staying at Shell Cottage when Teddy was born, like in the book, and Tonks and Lupin were the owners? They wouldn't want Harry to actually have to be there when Teddy was born. That would be totally not with the theme of the book. My guess is that Teddy would already be born when they arrived there, or else we just don't get to see Teddy at all (just a pregnant Tonks), or Teddy doesn't exist. One of the three.

"Once again..." Warner Bros. has failed to deliver...


Posted by heronxobsessed74 Jul 14th 2008

Oh, in response to what people are saying- this doesn't neccessarily mean we dont' get a real teaser trailer. This could be in addition, or a sign that they are ready to start promotions and give us a teaser trailer. It's a definite start. Oh- and by the way, now that we know Andrew's up and on the Internet, why isn't Stephenie Meyer's 3rd Quote of The Day from Breaking Dawn on Twilight Source yet? We've been discussing it in the comments of the post about the previous Quote of The Day. Just a heads-up, since the Mugglecasters say they read comments.


Posted by heronxobsessed74 Jul 14th 2008

By the way, I was reading more comments about Arthur being attacked by Fenrir Greyback, and someone- I don't remember who- made a good point- Arthur has already suffered enough in movie 5! So, not only "Why him," but "Why him AGAIN?"

well going back to the wedding thing if we are going to see the tonks and lupin wedding that means some people in from the other wedding in the DH isnt going to be there like krum and then we wont have that gregovitch(sp?) wand conversation with harry (aka rons cousin) and thats a bit of a problem and not to mention ron wont have the chance to get jealous and ask hermione to dance and i thought that woud be funny to see :P
