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. Its possible that its 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 Rons 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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:38:13

6 or 7? Well, at least its SOMETHING.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:38:18

WTH! God dont blink or youll miss it during the previews... Whats the point, WB? They just like screwing with us...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:41:18

If they didnt want to show too much, Ive got to say they DID IT very well!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:42:49

WTF, I most definetly agree with all you people above. I mean cmon fifteen seconds. Yes, its something, but its a disappointing piece of crap. Why cant 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 doesnt screw this movie up.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:43:17

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:46:15

whyyy must they do this to us....

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:46:27

In the immortal words of Porky Pig. "Budee budee budee, thats all folks!"

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:51:28

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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:53:39

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:53:43

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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:54:17

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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:55:36

I dont think we could expect much more from 15 seconds. By the way, so far we just havent 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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 10:58:16

LOL! BellaBlack7! I totally agree! Dont we usually have a really long trailer by now?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:04:24

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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:07:40

Totally! Youve got to feel sorry for him!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:11:41

Are they frigging KIDDING us with this?!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:12:56

... woah, thats a lot. =|

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:13:42

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 dont forget her other son that has a missing ear and the one thats 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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:16:35

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:18:45

wow f[_]ck WB...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:19:57

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:24:09

Pray God that the movie isnt as bad as OOTP!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:24:58

first of all, other commentors, TEASER trailer, dont 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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:26:23

This seems canon.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:28:22

I actually find this exciting. Thats one line that is in the movie, so thats pretty cool. :) I dont care that its only 15 seconds, at least its something.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:30:30

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:32:42

*screams*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:35:08

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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:45:30

FINNALLLLLLY!!!! SOME EFFIN NEWS :P

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:46:37

The teaser is a black screen with Dumbledores voice... OK.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:47:08

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

Well, since theres no teaser trailer, theyre probably just saying, "Hey everyone! Guess what! Were 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 theyre going to do it? Yet, how can they cut it? Its so important! Its a fun scene, plus Harry wouldnt have stayed at the Burrow as long if it werent 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 Lupins 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 wouldnt 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 dont get to see Teddy at all (just a pregnant Tonks), or Teddy doesnt exist. One of the three.

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 11:56:15

Oh, in response to what people are saying- this doesnt 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. Its a definite start. Oh- and by the way, now that we know Andrews up and on the Internet, why isnt Stephenie Meyers 3rd Quote of The Day from Breaking Dawn on Twilight Source yet? Weve 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: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:00:40

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

DAVID YATES IS PERHAPS THE BIGGEST IDIOT I HAVE EVER MET. AND THE FACT THAT THEY REPLCACE BILLS ENCOUNTER WITH GREYBACK TO MR WEASLEY GETTING MAULED IS TRAGIC. IF YOUR GONNA F U C K AROUND WITH PLOT LINES THEN AT LEAST DO SOMTHING THAT YOU DIDINT DO IN YOUR PREVIOUS FILM..(DAVID YATES). f

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

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:09:35

this totally sucks! there are trailers on utube that are better than that! WB is really exhibiting their skills here! AND WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS GOIN ON ABOUT ARTHUR! THAT IS SERIOUSLY MESSED UP! POO ON U WB!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:12:41

WHAT!! I thought bill was going to be in the 6th movie?? what is this.Why does Arthur get attacked by Greyback, thats just weird. Since the third movie theyve messed everything up. Well the 4th was pretty acurate. Well anyway Ill still go see it for sure, cause Im such a Harry Potter junkie :P p.s this is totally off topic. My dad was watching TV and i walked into the room and the guy that plays Arthur W. was on some TV show and they were like firing guns or something and talking about random things out in the woods,and I just burst out laughing. Especially cause he isnt a red head!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:15:23

right, youll blink and miss it, but that one line does sound pretty intense! I had thought about the possibility of a lupin/tonks wedding, I think thats what were gonna get. Im pretty sure they couldnt pull off the trio leaving without the wedding scene.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:18:10

huh????? that is soooo weird.....just lkike them to do sumthin lyk that....idiots

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:20:39

If thats fifteen seconds, how long is the actual movie gonna be? Movie: Dumbledore and Harry meet Slughorn, Harry goes to Hogwarts, Quidditch, Ron falls in love, Katie gets pwnd, a few pensieve scenes, the cave, Dumbledore went crashing down, and END. Thats one hell of a movie. *cough* not *cough* Excuse me. I said NOT.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:21:54

From a publicity point of view, this is an AMAZING move. This would make me want to see the film more than a few very quick cutty clips (which is what most teasers are like). Then we have the full trailer in about a month. GENIUS.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:29:17

What the F*CK did you all expect from a FIFTEEN SECOND trailer? You all are effing getting pissed off for NO goddamn reason. Did you expect the whole golly movie to come out with this? GOD! You guys are such b*tches. (the ones complaining) Calm down! We`ll all see a trailer soon. At least this is SOMETHING. If this didnt even come out, you guys would all be crying your a$$es off about not getting ANYTHING. Well, this is something, so be fudge happy. Golly gee. You guys are so freaking whiny, its pathetic & annoying as hell.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:32:07

That was exciting!!! (Starts to snore)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:32:39

I agree - its good to see something. Especially since we were only expecting the title and "Coming to IMAX". That line is a blessing.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:35:33

I CANNOT WAIT!!!! Although I must admit, the teaser line provided is disappointing. I want more!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:38:56

PPL READ THIS I THINK THIS IS HOW THEY ARE GONNA DO TEH FLEUR SCENE!: okay well im going to tell u how they are gonna do it in the 6th movie then ill tell u how they should do it in the 7th movie if the wedding convo is not in the 6th: THE SIXTH: harry would be at trhe burrow then the phone rimgs molly picks it up and then u could over hear her talking and shell be like " YOUR MARRYING WHO?!!" then later shell be like " OH NO BILL U KNOW WHEN SHE VISITD OVER THE SUMMER HOW SHE WAS! WE THOUGHT U WERE JUST DATING AND NOW UR GETTING MARRIED!?" so then later shell be like " well yes,yes i KNOW its ur choice but couldnt u pick someone better then HER?" and then shell be like " okay Bill Bye" harry would be all confused and he looks at ginny and says " whos her marrying" " Phlegm" " whos she?" asks harry and then ron would be liek " oh shut up ginny say her real name" " NO! she treats me like a little girl!" then ron gives her a dirty look and he looks at harry and says " fleur" harry would be liek " WHAT? FLEUR?" " yea..." " when did tehy start seeing eachother?" harry asks " they met during our school year and he brougth her here during teh summer they just left a week ago" harry would be all confused then later itll show the next scene. AND NOW FOR HOW TEY SHOULD SHOW IT FOR THE 7TH MOVIE:well in teh end of the 6th movie ron asks harry to come over for teh summer just dor a while before tehy do anythign and harry agrees. so in the 7th movie when harry goes in rons house he goes in his room and ginny walks in " OH I CANT STAND HER!" yells ginny " and harry asks who ginny says " phlegm" and harry would be like " phlegm" and rons sitting on his bed and hell be like " what ginny means is Fleur" " WHAT? whats she doing here?" and ron would be like " shes getting married to Bill" " whern did this happen" harry would ask then he is interupted by fleur who comes in and kisses harry on the cheek then it woyuld show the next scene. TELL ME IF U LIKE IT

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:40:07

why the hell cant WB listen to the fans and gives us a teaser trailer that is worth going to see a movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! i give WB not going to listen to any more news from WB now.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:41:44

NOO!!! WE...NEED...THE...REAL... TRAILERR!!!! *cries* why WB? WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO US?!?!?! and why are they taking Bill and Feur out>? THATS INSANE!!! HBP is my favorite one of the series, and they better not mess it up even more.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:42:50

Rose37, lol

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 12:54:45

gosh, only 15 seconds? honestly?..........*sigh* well, you gotta admit, its better than nothing, right?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:00:43

Knowing what the line is now, knowing also how more dark and more scaryer the movie and the area around the viewers are going to get and know how busy this weekend at the movies are going to be, for right now, I know for a fact I will not be seeing the Dark Knight movie in imax, but only in the regular movie theather. Also the other day, when I was at the movie theather, all of the pictures of faces was covered in glasses and werid sayings from the Dark Knight movie. I think the theathers or atleast the theather near where I live is getting ready for the release of the Dark Knight movie, with out a dought!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:03:15

Are you kidding me? We have been waiting for a long time for this teaser trailer and we find out its 15 seconds... =/

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:05:48

Ok quick! Someone that is at home near their HBP book. Look and see if that quote is in there or not. For some reason I think it is. Does anyone know for sure?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:06:00

God, this was not worth the wait. GOSH DARN IT WB, DO SOMETHING RIGHT!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:12:28

About the teaser trailer, at least its something, and being a teaser trailer it would never be much mora than that. The ridiculous part has to do with Mr Weasley getting mauled. I mean, as someone already pointed out, from the 3rd movie on they have been messing everything up. OOTP was a complete mess, they invested more in the graphics than in the plot itself. So, I wouldnt put it past WB to start the 7th movie with the Trio already on the run, maybe at Sirius house or something, and we only know about the wedding through their conversation, when Harry would say something like "Remember at Bills wedding when Xeno Lovegood told ...". I have been disapointed once and again since PoA, so...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:14:28

A whole 15 seconds... You know, I think WB is full of crap for this. They really are...I dont know what their problems is this time around with HP... I dont mean to start any fandom wars here, but Ill just say...I think a certain other film based on a book with a huge following is going to squash HBP in the box office if WB doesnt get their act together...Im a fan of both series, and I can honestly say Im looking forward to this other film much more than I am to HBP. Im afraid that WB is going to wait until the absolute LAST minute to start putting the public on HP overload, instead of steadily building up the buzz like this other film is doing. Granted, HP has been out longer and has a bigger fandom, but for those who are not exactly fans of the series and just go to see the movies, WB is shooting themselves in the foot with their retarded antics. I think theyre risking the chance for a lot of people to be like "Whats this nonsense? More Harry? I thought it was over? Now all of a sudden its back...Forget this. Im going to see ________ instead." I do hope Im wrong. Perhaps things will change when it gets closer to the release. But as a fan, I am just not at all happy with WB. (Im not even going to comment on the Mr. Weasly thing...itll just make me more upset that I already am. Again...this other film is staying MUCH more true to the books. Why do HP films always manage to screw something up? Its ridiculous.) *Sigh* And I used to be so positive about the HP films...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:19:20

Its not a teaser trailer man, Its a preview. What did you expect of 15 seconds, lol.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:19:20

Wow, people are overreacting a lot. WB did warn us that this was just a 15-second preview...you can hardly fit any action sequence into 15 seconds, so they just promoted the movie with the name--it gets people thinking about it. And as for replacing Bills attack with Mr. Weasley...I dont think itll be too bad. I mean, I really wanted to see Bill and Fleur cause that wouldve been hilarious, but we have to remember that EVERYTHING THEY PUT INTO OR TAKE OUT OF THE MOVIE IS OKD WITH JK ROWLING FIRST. Thats why they fit Kreacher into OOTP. Thats why Alfonso Cuaron wasnt allowed to have a graveyard in the Hogwarts grounds or to have "little people" dancing around Hogwarts everywhere. So I really dont think replacing Bill and Fleurs wedding with Lupin and Tonkss would be too detrimental to the plot of the film, and theyll probably be the owners of Shell Cottage instead of Bill and Fleur. As for Mrs. Weasley having to cook raw meat from now on...I cant see that being too much of a problem for her, because her husband isnt DEAD.

Looking in the book, I know for sure that the line has to do something with the cave, but I couldnt find it. I promise that once I find the line, I will report to you here, on mugglenet, MagicMaker222!!!(Gets up and leaves the room, to better view the sixth book)

Does anyone else think that twilight is going to do more justice to its bool that the HBP movie does? Oh and ashurlito: Umm do they even have a phone at the burrow?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:32:02

After thinking for a long time ive decided WB is officaily gay.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:32:16

DAVID YATES, I fudge HATE YOU! Why do you have to change up the story so much in the HP films? Goddamit! And 15 seconds is practically nothing! Why does Arthur have to go through so much...I thought it was Bill that was attacked by Fenrir Greyback! Sheesh, thats why I totally hated the Order of the Phoenix film. What is your fing problem? Its like he cant leave JK Rowlings work alone! This movie is going to suck ass now. I want to get David Yates OUT!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:32:39

Its better than nothing! Its the first good piece of news weve got in a while, and anyhoo, isnt half the magic of the film waiting for it? Once it comes out, only 2 more films to look forward to, then....................( yeah, I dont want to think about it!!!!!!)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:33:13

No, the Twilight movie wont do the book justice but it will be better than the book itself because the book is not that good. I know, I just finished it and it doesnt live up to the hype at all. It just drags on forever with no vampire action at all. In the movie however, from the clips Ive seen so far, we actually get to see Edward bite someone. In the book that stupid idiot whiner called Bella faints and misses the whole thing. And Im hoping they skip all the listening to each others heartbeats crap!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:37:05

You have GOT to be kidding me. Honestly, thats just CRUEL. Its like theyre honestly trying to get under our skin. What use is that? I mean, Im somewhat happy that there is some sign there ACTUALLY IS a movie, but its just like rubbing it in our face. Gahhh, blech.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:38:57

arry6, gay isnt a bad word

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:39:17

Im sorry, but that is the lamest "teaser" Ive ever heard. Harry always does the "impossible" because, well . . . hes a wizard. Yeah, we got that by now, thanks. Lame! I dont know what WB is thinking lately.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:39:18

Twilght is going to be fudging shhh. Why cant movie directors leave the books alone! Im already dreading the sixth movie. Arthurs gone through enough. I agree with PotterGurl08 and arry6. WB is sooooooooooooooooo gay!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:39:57

Are you people sick or something? Overreacting like babies o.O As if David Yates wrote the script and cut Bill out. Hes not the one that will be editing the movie either but I bet youre still gonna blame him if you hate it, right? Awesome. Please stop going on about the trailer also... youre going to see the movie anyway :( grrrr!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 13:47:43

I have noticed that some of you are talking about the twight series. Right now I am part of a book club near where I live and we were to continue to read the lord of the rings series for awhile, but because of the twight number four book coming out at the end of this year, the group decide to change the book reading to the twight series. Now could anyone please explain what is so big about the series. From the summary that I have read for the twight series(a vanpire and something else are in love with eachother), I know I wont like reading the books, but in order for me to go to the meetings I will have to read the books. Also because of the four book coming out this year, the other three books are most likely sold out or there are tons of waiting list. So where would I get my hands on the first twight???

How queer is that??? If they have the trailer with The Mummy, I am gonna be sooooooo pissed.

Okay, sorry to all those people who are reprimanding us "whiny-types." Yeah, OK, so maybe were overreacting just a little bit, but....GIVE US A BREAK! Were cranky HP fans who just want some sort of sign that this movie is really out there! Sure, we maybe acting a little childish, but people WHAT THE HECK WAS HARRY THROUGHOUT ALL OF OOTP, HUH?? Its just, maybe I should speak for myself, but I think most of us just want a trailer, because, well, because this series is so freakin important to us. Yes, I understand the meaning of the word "teaser," but I have seen other teaser trailers longer than 15 seconds with something at least other than a black screen. Im not even asking for a clip, OK? Someone could probably manage to at least throw in a few movie stills, add some dramatic sound effects after each one popping onto the screen, then slowly fade to black and have the quote. Am I childish? Yes. Should you blame me? No.

Yeah guys, that was ME who said the news about Arthur Weaseley getting MAULED (CAN U FUCKINNN BELIEVE THAT?!?) in the film. I have to be honest with ALL of you, for the first time in history... im actually SCARED about this upcoming HP film, so many cuts ive heard make POA look innocent. I liked OOTP, no matter how much you fans bash it, lol. but now im not so sure about this one. I BET YOU GUYS THAT DOBBY ISNT EVEN IN THIS FILM! HOW THE HELL R THEY GONNA EXPLAIN HIS OUT-OF-THE-BLUE APPEARANCE IN DH??? AND ARTHUR GETS MAULED??? WHAT ABOUT BILL? WHAT ABOUT SHELL COTTAGE??? SO DOES THAT MEAN HARRY GOES BACK TO THE BURROW, WHEN THE MINISTRY IS WATCHING THE WEASELEYS HOUSE??? THIS JUST MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL.! I hope these are all lies and the movies will be good, b4 no matter HOW LONG DH is.... its still gonna be crap because Yates fucked up with HBP... id never thought id write a complaint about the movies like this, but this is INSANE@!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:14:09

Amen, and thank you to Rose37 and Pirate99. Oh yeah, and does anyone know what the heck is going on the the Mr. Weasley mauling bit? Because that just makes me unhappy, and more cranky on top of the whole teaser trailer deal. Unfortunately, this is not a good day to be an obsessive Harry Potter fan. :-(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:17:56

Rose37: Im not sure where you live but i just bought twilight book at Wal-Mart while i was at lunch earlier today. It was the paperback but they didnt have the hardback and they were sold out last week when I was there. So i got in because I was afraid they would sell out again. I got New Moon and started it but Im to put that off and start twilight tonight. Oh and thanks for checking out the quote for me. I would do it but Im at work and surf mugglenet when Im bored(*always bored at work*) but i do intend to check when i get home this afternoon.*gets off work in 1hour and 44 minutes* see told you i get bored,lol

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:20:09

Some birthday present this is. I mean, its great that we finally have something, but 15 seconds does not do our anticipation and excitement justice. What is anyone going to get out of a black screen and dumbledores voice?????

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:20:31

Ladies and Not-so-gentleman of Mugglecast! We have been thoroughly gypped of a trailer. Sharpen your axes and get out your chainsaws! get out the cheesecakes, and release the mary sues! They must die!

WB should go choke on pie. yeaaaaahh. :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:23:50

About the trailer- I lold. But you cant really fit much into a 15 second trailer anyway unless you just quickly flash tons of scenes together. But that wouldnt make sense for promoting purposes unless it was an actual trailer. About Arthur Weasley and the Fleur thing- Honestly, I think what theyre doing is a great idea. Yeah, Im somewhat disappointed that they arent making it Bill and Fleur but you have to remember that the movie goers dont know who the hell Bill is! And they barely know who Fleur is. Theyll just just be like "wait... I think that chick looks familiar." So it makes more sense to the condensed movies to have it be characters people are already familiar with, or else those scenes wouldnt have so much of an emotional effect on the movie goers because they arent attached to those characters. Also, if they were to keep the Bill and Fleur thing, they would have to spend time in the movie trying to explain who these people are when they could be using that time for more important scenes. It just makes more sense for movie purposes and for the movie goers to make it Arthur Weasley being attacked and Lupin and Tonkss wedding for DH. To be honet, Im glad that theyre most likely going to have it be Tonks and Lupins wedding because itll give them more screen time in DH and make the movie goers more connected to them before they bite the dust. And dont worry about all the little loop holes this creates because WB will find a way to make it work since JKR is working with them and approving it all. You have to remember, JKR is the one giving the green light.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:23:50

To anyone complaining about Arthur getting attacked here is some common sense for you: Bill has been cut, and for good reason. Introducing him this late is pointless. Plus, having him get attacked wouldnt carry as much weight due to the fact that he was introduced so late in the game, and the average movie goer who hasnt read the books would think he was put in the movie to just get attacked and add to the on screen carnage. Truth be told, I never cared one bit about Bill getting attacked. Yeah, he is Rons brother, but who cares in the larger skeam of things. It didnt effect Harrys journey in the slightest, and Harrys journey is the most important part. That being said, at least by it being Rons dad I will care a little more, because Arthur is just as much a role model for Harry as he is for Ron. So this allows it to be a bigger impact on Harry, and makes it relevant to the story. Whereas with Bill it was sorta just a oh yeah here is some more carnage Bill got attacked. I am glad that they made it Arthur who gets attacked, because him I do care about.

Wow. I mean W O W. Talk about tossing a morsal of food to a bunch of starving inmates in the dungeon! WB has given us a morsal - we are S T A R V I N G for anything new on Harry Potter, right? The books are done, we have nothing further to look forward to except these movies - HP is a very large part of most of our lives...WB gets that. This is nothing more than a brilliant marketing ploy to attempt to get the hungry fans drawn in that anticipation of the books. Watch, next week, the teaser will be out followed quickly on its heels with so many promos, we will become inundated and punch-drunk with Potterisms. Relax, youll get your fix. And please, this isnt an admonishment, however, those of you who choose to use, shall we say colorful language, please dont. As far as Mr. Weasley goes, Im confused; just because there are supposed scans (not that Im saying the person who posted this info is wrong) from Movie Magic makes it so? Do we have absolute knowledge and proof this is a fact? Until then, Im not going to get my knickers in a bunch.

LOL... is all I can say right now. Who knew movie trailers were so important to peoples well being ;) Im really excited for the movie and would love a trailer right now but I gave-up long ago already and Im not expecting anything from WB any more :( I think once they confirm it or something then we can get excited and get our hopes up. It was your own fault for getting so excited over nothing.... but just think how happy we will be when it finally does come out :)

MIRDALA, ok... if u support the Bad-Luck Arthur getting Mauled... then what about Shell Cottage? Where the heck do Harry, Ron, Hermione, Dean, and Luna go to when they escape from Malfoy Manor??? Back to the Weaseleys house? When the Ministry is CLEARLY monitoring the house... it just makes NO SENSE! Clearly David Yates is gonna end up like Chris Columbus... 1st one was good, 2nd one was a nightmare! the worse...

Hmmm... WHEN WILL THERE BE A REAL TEASER TRAILER?! If there even is one. I say skip the teaser and go right to theatrical.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:39:55

A few things. One, Mirdala, I dont exactly get what you said here: "I am glad that they made it Arthur who gets attacked, because him I do care about." Why would you want someone you care about to be attacked? Thats your personal opinion and I respect that, but, personally, Im crushed whenever someone I like gets hurt. (You should have seen me at Dobbys death in DH. :-( Not pretty) Anyways, aside from that, I understand what youre getting at. At this point, I suppose it doesnt make as much sense to insert Bill and everything, but what bothers me is that they DIDNT insert him in the first place before. I guess whats done is done, but...yeah. But I disagree that Bills accident was just carnage. The built up tragedy over all the different problems in the Weasleys family (Georges ear being sliced off, Fred dying, Percy ignoring his family for such a prolonged period, and Bills being mauled) really affected Mr. and Mrs. Weasley a great deal and in a deep way. And if you really care about Mr. Weasley so much, you would care that he would care about Bill. I dunno really, Im just one of those people who really just wishes that stuff like this would just plain follow the books. Maybe its just the inner over-obsessive fan in me, but yeah.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:42:11

wow thats it. its still pretty cool. . . . that we finally get it! BUT THATS IT! i remember the dark knight teaser was just a dialogue between alfred and bruce/batman and then the joker saying something . . . . . . no visuals but the batman logo shattering. . . . . but 15 seconds?! COMMON! at least were finally getting .... SOMETHING!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:44:56

Mirdala....I agree totally.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:45:35

Can I just say how absolutely amazing JK Rowling is in how she created these characters and brought them to life? Look at the lot of you (yes, including me) all in a tizzy over a 15 second (brilliant I might add) preview of a trailer; over Arthur Weasley allegedly being mauled, because admit it, most of you view him as a father figure, correct? Take a step back and look at the world Jo created and how R E A L it is to all of us....

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:46:27

MagicMaker222, Rose37, I agree with R_U_Sirius, I thought it looked familier too and I skimmed the book for all the dumbledore converesations anf found nothing. Either its not from the book or its from a different book. Imagine finding out now that this rumur is completly false....

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:49:58

At least we are getting something... *sigh*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:55:06

I think that quote from Dumbledore is from OOTP. After the the big Dumbledore vs. Voldemort scene.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:55:16

yay. go wb. they created a super short teaser trailer that tells us nothing about the movie.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 14:57:55

thats so stupid! i cant believe they havent released the trailer yet! this is RIDICULOUS !!!! IT IS WAY OVERDUE!! I AM SOOO PISSED OFF!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:01:31

I think I found the quote!! In GOF, page 695 of the American paperback version, Dumbledore says, "You have shown bravery beyond anyhing I could have expected from you. I ask you to demonstrate your courage one more time. I ask you to tell us what happened."

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:03:36

Just to everyone who is explaining the whole "Mr. Weasley being mauled" and all that by saying stuff like it makes sense for the "average moviegoer who hasnt read the books." Now, Im the sort of person who accepts it, but IN NO WAY UNDERSTANDS OR SUPPORTS this obsession with money. OK, I used to be 1 of those "watch movie but dont read books," types but now Im an obsessive HP fan. And yes, it wouldnt really make sense to introduce Bill at this point. But I just have this thing where my mind is extremely opposed to changing all that happened involving him, even if it would make it easier on people who havent read HP. I guess the movie should make enough sense to someone if they havent gotten around to reading the books yet, but we wouldnt have that problem if one of the earlier movies just took three seconds to you know, mention Bills name. I understand the concern of time, and I know what Im arguing is unreasonable, but.. And, from what I can see, I just..I dont understand the money thing. Okay, you want as many people as you want to see the movie. And lets face it, our world is a money obsessed world. But, I just think its...UNFAIR. I mean, all those people who havent read the books? Honestly? I dont see why the movie should be changed for THEM, when its WE OBSESSIVE FANS who really, well, care. Ok, so the other people will have a few minutes of confusion during the movie. But, ok. In the end, they really dont care as much about HP. And then take someone like me. Stuff like this? Well, IT MATTERS TO ME. Yes, Im nitpicky about my details. But, it matters to me. It may not matter to the hundreds of other people who just want something to do on another Saturday so go and watch the new HP movie. People like me are the ones who started a countdown for HBP the day after OotP was released. People like me are the ones who spend each day getting excited for being 1 day closer. People like me are the ones it really matters to.

Im glad i decided not to be not spoiled because if i was in thetheater and i saw that i would did like i did in my house:SCREAM AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS:IS THAT IT?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:09:14

Why don`t we just look on the bright side of things. This line will definitely be in the movie. (hopefully) This is intriguing! It makes us even more trailer hungry than we already are. Thats good then. And when we finally see the real (and two minutes+ long, hopefully) trailer, we will all be happy. :) As for Arthur getting attacked, I see no problem with it. Its just a change in character, thats all. People say that Mr. Weasley has "already suffered enough", but thats better IMO. The audience will feel for him, and care more about him, because weve known him longer.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:21:29

OMG!! that is so not fair. 10 words does not make a trailer...the first trailer and its a freaking sentence??! wow. im excited anyway though..dont care to see the trailer though...i wonder why they arent giving much in the trailer though,..they released so many clips and stuff for ootp...like way in advance of the release of the movie..so its weird..

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:24:30

WOW!!! i am IMPRESSED!!! a WHOLE 15 seconds of the movie 3.5 months b4 realease.. this is ridiculous

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:25:15

Okay, first of all, that teaser description is epic fail. Second, there are no trailers before an IMAX film, so I have no idea what theyre talking about...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:27:54

hedwighummer... you would go see the movie no matter what. They (WB) got you already. They want casual fans. They want people who may never pick up one of the books. Were hooked, we HAVE to see the movie. In fact, the lines we stand in on opening night will help WB even more. The casual fans want to see what all the fuss is about so they wait until the next weekend. They care about us, but the care about everyone else more. Weve already proved to them that well keep coming no matter what.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:32:54

even if they have no trailers...im sure hbp is gonna make a lot of money anyway..thats probly why they havent bothered with the publicity..cuz they dont need to

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:34:53

R_U_Sirius, I guess youre right. Thats true. But, I guess Im just in a cranky mood and am pissed at all...this thats happening now. And it just makes me upset sometimes when I realize stuff exactly like what you said, because its probably true. But that doesnt make the situation any less sad in my opinion.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:34:54

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! IM SO EXCITED! THIS IS GOING TO BE REALLY AWESOME! hopefully they show the whole teaser in the mummy. if not ill be angry cause im spending like 30 dollars on movies i really dont wanna see. well besides the potter preview and the teaser.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:35:47

MagicMaker222 and R_U_sirius well Molly is married to Arthutr and Arthur LOVES the telephone ( as said in the end of OOTP) so i think he tought molly how to use it.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 15:39:17

Yourlaughter, I wouldnt blame the person who described it, Id blame the person WHO MADE IT. And I have no idea about IMAX films, but, I dunno, either a) this whole thing could be a hoax, or b) theyd make an exception for something as epic as HP.

PotterGurl08, Im actually more exited for HBP, because the other film will be released here on January 9, which is still VERY far away...And Im nervous ...I hope they dont mess up that film too...but there is always August 2nd to look out for first..the daily quote of today (The tanya one) is really making me crazy.. About the Arthur Weasley thing...it could be a fault in the Movie Maker Magazine..there were some other faults in it anyway. I dont like Bill being cut, because I love the wedding and Shell Cottage...and when they cut Bill..its like killing someone, like making someone not exist..I mean wht about Victoire, Dominique and Louis? (not that they would show them in the film anyway, but it atill feels that way...). And if they are cutting Bill, they ca leave Greyback out to...I mean, if they leave him out they will have more time for other things and thy dont have to hurt poor Arthur..

My god peeps, stop throwing hissy fits. Its meant to be a tease and um tease you, which looks like its worked. But all you I-need-it-right-now dudes just dont know what it means to wait for something. The film is out in November, go and do something productive untill then...I know some really great knitting circles. :)

congrats Yates! you have officially ruined the rest of the Harry Potter series (in movies that is) :D how does he sleep at night >< as for the teaser trailer... Im rather disapointed...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:16:09

this is actually funny...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:16:53

You make the text black on black so you can only see it if highlighted. . . Umm one thing Ive noticed is that no one seems to be blaming the screen play writer. MR STEVE KNOWLS who wrote the script for the movie. Yates didnt write it down he just shoots it. However I would think that Jo who put so much effort and love into her books would have put her foot down on some of this. But alas no. I mean for example: 1) Dobby is the one who gave the gilly weed not Neville 2) Dobby is the one who tells of the Room of requirments not Neville. 3) They didnt put the sneak thief Mundungus in the movies so how is Aberforth going to get the mirror that helps save them? 4) How all of a sudden is Dobby going to be important enough to get his grave dug by Harry. (and so help me if they cutt that scene there will be hell to pay!) 5) How will they meet Lovegood and see him and Krum arguing? Sorry to take up so much space but I am so mad at The hole movies of Harry Potter. Im sorry but they have just one too far. . They really havent shown in the movies just how important the Weasly family is to Harry or really just how Harrys own family just really hates him.. How are they going to show Dudley changing towards harry. They just didnt play up how much Sirius meant to Harry, Nor am I happy about in POA when Lupin said "I reconized you not by your looks but by your eyes you have Lillys eyes" if Lupin and James were best friends wouldnt it have been he saw his father. AND.. God help me for saying this but that greasy haired Teacher Pro. Snape has not been done justice either. and if they mess with his memories in DH its on.. Sorry to ramble but Ive said my peace for now.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:17:18

i just think cutting things out like the wedding bill and flur gregovitch convo with HP just sucks it not staying true to the books i can see it be the same with as the ootf they cut to much out

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:20:24

stop all the yates hate. he has nothing to do with the advertising/trailer decisions. he probably had very little to do with the fact that bill was cut. its all production and writing and wb. yates is awesome! leave him alone.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:37:01

I wish I could use magic so I could curse WB to the deepest, darkest, pits of hell!!!! All this shows is that they are able to give us some proof that they know how to put a trailer(even this 5 second screen of darkness)into a movie! Why cant they just give us the trailer? Or at least give us a 5 second clip from the movie instead of this black screen then the movie title. At this point, I would settle for WB to start playing a message saying that they have filmed something! *kicks wall and screams*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:37:18

How the hell do you call it a preview (let a lone a preview of a teaser trailer) when there is basically nothing happening in it! And its not telling us something new, as its just one of Dumbledores many life teaching quotes... Ohh well, I suppose it is better than anything..

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 16:43:16

Amen, phoenix_knight, Amen!!! Also that your for that bit of infomation, MagicMaker222, but if I can I would prefear to borrow the twight series, #1 book. Only because I dont really care for the series. All I want to do is to read the book(s), so that I can still be part of my librarys book club!!! Tho if I do decide to buy the book, how much does the each book cost. Maybe I can ask my co-worker to buy the series for me, since she owns me $30 for breaking my habit of bitting my nails. Trust me on this, my nails were so bad, that I am not surprise to find out later on in life that I have a health problem that was caused by unclean and untaken care of nails, but that habit is now stoped within six weeks and I am thankful for the help!!!

Rose37, I know what you mean, I dont care much for the twilight series myself, I only read it because of peer pressure(ask around they are all on this site somewhere) its a really boring and badly written book, I didnt pay anything for my copies and I would have been very sorry if I had. try to get it from a friend or a liberary

i am not a batman fan so for me to drive 1 1/2 hours to see a freaking 15 freaking second trailor is such a rip-off.. AND ITS A BLACK SCREEN WTFH????? WB I AM PISSED x8

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:21:50

wtf..that is the lamest preview ive ever heard of. couldnt they just show a normal teaser trailer!??

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:25:35

1. WB is really pissing me off with not having a trailer out yet. 2. Dumbledores funeral not being in HBP is sadly disappointing. 3. An attack at the Burrow with the Burrow possibly being destroyed...WTF. 4. Aurthur being attacked instead of Bill. Hence...maybe no Bill/Fleur wedding ,so, no shell cottage in DH. 5. Rumors of no Harry/Ginny kiss. I dunno peeps its coming down to the final stretch and it looks as if WB may be dropping the ball. Hope Im wrong. :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:29:11

this is sick... the trailer was supposed to come out in late june!!! and now a 15 second umm... advertisement should i call it? hell, its not even a preview of the trailer, let alone a trailer!! why would they even waste money on something like this!!! some lame thing with a black back round im gonna once again ask you to do something impossible... LAME!!! this wouldnt even be worth the money to put out the release date i mean everyone in america must have been told at least once that harry potter and the half blood prince, the movie made from one of the best selling books in the world is coming out on november 21st!!!!! warner brothers is screwing with us!! im not driving an hour to see a 15 sec. advertisement of the release date of harry potter and a quote from dumbledore!! dont blink or you might miss it!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:34:12

LAME AS HELL!!

IT HAS NOT BEEN CONFIRMED THAT DUMBLEDORES FUNERAL HAS BEEN CUT! K!!??!

*screams*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:46:19

First off, THEY TOOK OUT THE HARRY/ GINNY KISS???? And second, stop picking on Twilight! I for one, personally like the series. Its suspensful and exciting. MAybe the only reason I like it is because I love love stories with action mixed in. Hance the reason Moulin Rouge! and Titanic are my favorite movies. I find it rude that people are insulting Twilight. Would you like it if someone started poking fun at Potter? I wouldnt, the fan that I am. I live off Potter, it is my oxygen. I agree with you on one point, though. 15 seconds is too short. Usually by now we have a 3 minute trailer. Arent I right?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:53:12

OMG! Seriously at least have like from video of Dumbledore saying the thing instead of some black screen. Okay like the quote doesnt bother me that much, its just I want something to ogle over!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 17:55:46

what i dont get is how can u have a "harry potter" teaser trailer without HARRY POTTER in it? i mean whats the point??!! im hoping this whole thing is just made up....

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 18:00:42

Fia, look I did read it first, I actually had no prejudice when I read it, the summary sounded interesting. It was gaining fame and I dont usually read all of those vampire stories so i thought it would be interesting to try one. To tell the truth my taste in books is very different from the taste of other hp fans, chances are if I hated it most of you will like it. I hated narnia and the series of unfourtunate events a lot more. I have a knack for guessing whats going to happen and I hate when it kicks in. Im sorry if I hurt your feelings. I do it quite a lot since there arent many hp fans with my taste. As i said you can take comfort knowing that since I hated it most hp fans will love it if they give it a try. Sorry

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 18:24:31

We waited that long for a blank screen and one line? We should all just boycott the movie on opening night.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 18:31:36

This isnt happening! Ahhhh!!!!!! Im going crazy! I just want the stupid trailer already!!! Now that we got that out of the way... Rumors of no attack on Bill and on Aurthur instead: wtf?!!?! So no wedding? shell cottage? no bill and fleur at all in dh?!!?!? WB better not screw this up, thats all I can say without screaming at the screen

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:16:24

Let us try this again. I was just at the library and was typing up my mugglent comment on this topic, when website shut down and that is when I decided to ask the librarians to help me look up a copy of the #1 book in the twight series. Guess what all of the librarys near where I live has all together 34 copies total and there is a waiting list for 205 people, which everyone has three weeks total to finish reading the book. So in turn I wont have my hands on the book until September, if I am lucky!!!! Also, I was so mad with that bit of news that I took my frustration on the librarians and wasted their time, so that they could understand my pain. I am NOT going to buy a book when I dont even care for the book. I just dont understand why my book club had to choose a most hard time to get your hands on a book, when the group could wait until the fourth book in the series finally comes out and than we can read all of the books and not just three out of the four. Thank you to all for your help on the twight series search and I hope People understand that once you make a die hard fan made THERE IS NO HELP FOR YOU LELF!!! DIE YOU STUPED LIBRARIANS(sorry if you are a librarian and you are readying this, but where I live my library sucks) and DIE YOU WB MEMBERS!!!

THE TRAILER IS GOING TO BE RELEASED ON AUGUST 1ST! SnitchSeeker.com: "Warner Bros. Mexico has confirmed to BlogHogwarts that the official teaser trailer for Half-Blood Prince will be released on August 1, 2008, where it will be attached to the forthcoming The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor." I even took a screenshot of this beautiful news! [ http://i37.tinypic.com/2h 87hxk. jpg ] Just take out the space. =D HOLY ASS! HOORAYYY! *throws confetti into air & cries*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:25:55

wtf mate? This is a joke. Im not going to go drive an hour to get to my nearest Imax for THAT. And people, the rumours youre all going crazy about are just that, RUMOURS! take a chill pill, theres no point having a stress head about something thats probably not even true.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:28:56

well, that pretty much sucks. whatta rip off. i mean no hp fan is seriously gonna drive hours to go see the 15 SECOND preview of dumbledore saying, ONCE AGAIN I MUST ASK YOU TO DO THE IMPOSSIBLE or whatever he said. i think thats just RIDICULOUS!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:34:27

To hpninjaskills, what great news, because quess what. I WAS AT THE LIBRARY JUST A FEW MINS AGO AND I NOW HAVE IN MY HANDS, THE FRIST TWO MUMMY MOVIES. NOW I CAN WATCH THE MOVIES AND I CAN ALSO STATE MY OPINION WITH FACTS!!! IS THAT NOT COOL OR WHAT???

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:36:40

Siriusly, I agree with Alex. Lets all just take a deeeeeeeep breath, sit back, relax, and CALM THE F**K DOWN, okay? Now, who wants to hear a funny joke? Anybody?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:38:29

Who...this thread is getting heated, lol. I think it all boils down to...why is WB and Yates being so freakin difficult??? HBP is only 4 months away and all they have to show for it is some boring pictures and a 15 second clip...I dont even want to call it a trailer anymore. Its just ridiculous!! Secondly, I just dont understand why they think it is necessary to change stuff in the plot. The whole argument about not wanting to introduce a new character...heck, thats WBs fault. I seriously do not think it would have been that difficult to find a red-head dude to show on the screen for 15 measly seconds, holding hands with Fleur (who the audience will remember from GOF) and saying, "Cant wait for the wedding" and then waste all of 5 seconds showing various members of the Weasley family frowning while Ron whispers to Harry (thats my bro, Bill!)...Then there would be no reason to have Greyback jump on Arthur rather than Bill. Like I said before, cant wait for the other movie to come out..Summit seems to care more about that other fandom than WB is caring for HP fandom right about now...I apolgize for my hostility for those of you who are excited about this "trailer" and who dont mind the supposed Mr. Weasley change... (evanna11...I know! I nearly died when I read it Tanyas quote. I know someone will have a natural fit if shes around when Tanya says that...She was already jealous just at the mentioning of Tanya, so surely trouble will break out when shes actually there! Aug. 2nd cant come quick enough!)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:45:48

geez, whats the point?? They make us wait for EVER, the trailer is MONTHS late and this is all we get????? gawd.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:46:21

this is messed up, just give us a trailer already

texas_hammer, Yes please before I kill wb!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:51:03

ginnypotter719 - This is not made up. Go to SnitchSeeker.com & they confirmed it with this one guy who watched it @ the IMAX theater. Its exactly what it says up there. But the better news is that the teaser trailer is going to be with us on August 1st. :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:51:35

Tell us another funny Texas_hammer we could all use a good laugh! You know Ive never in my entire life obessed over anything but then I read Harry Potter actually the first one I read was OOTP and I started at 2pm and didnt put it down until close to midnight. and the next morning I rushed out to my local Hastings and bought SS thru HBP and was sooooooooooooooo Hooked and as soon as DH came out It was added to the collection. Ive read and re-read all of the books so many times that I can quote the books backwards and forwards so lord help me if the WB screw up these last two movies (ok three movies) Because I do know how to spam the H*LL out of the WB...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:52:52

Rose37, here it is: A blonde, a brunette, and a red-head want to go to space, but they cant decide wear to go. The brunette says, "I want to go to the moon, cause its white, like me." The red-head says, "I want to go to Mars, cause its red, like my hair." And the blonde says, "I want to go the Sun, cause its hot, like me." The brunette and the red-head say to the blonde, "We cant go to the Sun. We would burn and die." And the blonde says, "Duh! Thats why we go at night."

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 19:57:05

I had no idea they werent including Bill in the 6th movie. What does that mean for the DH movies? I thought the whole idea of splitting the book into two films was to do it right and incorporate everything, not to change the plot around. Of all the movies, DH is not one to mess with. And if theyre already cutting out characters, what else are they going to change?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:02:46

skldjas;lifjs;alidjasidjl ;J!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT?! WHATTT?! I AM USUALLY A CALM PERSON BUT THIS GETS A BUG IN A BUTT. 15 SECONDS? 15 SECONDS?!?!!!! UGH. I HATE WARNER BROTHERS, OR WHOEVER ELSE SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE. I know people might say, "well its better than nothing", but no. Nothing would be better. I would not be FREAKING OUT right now if there was still no news. UGH!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:02:52

YOU KNOW WHO THEY SHOULD HAVE CAST AT BILL? Simon Peg!!! Think about it. Hes British a red head adoreable and funny. He also wants to be in the movies. He would have been perfect. But thats just my thought.

Ugh. Now I have to go watch the Mummy. -__-

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:17:03

For the fifth movie we had a teaser trailer 8 months before the movie release. Now were closing in on 4 months before the movie release and we get nothing but a few pictures? It doesnt make sense to me :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:32:58

Wow am I dissapointed....And about peoples comments regarding movie changes and such: I am so nervous about DH cause everything just sounds sooooo messed up. Are they planning on keeping anything the same? This sounds like its turning into a whole different story. They better keep the wedding in the 7th film because i wanted to see Rons Aunt first of all and also I wanted to see Ron and Hermione dance. This was a funny/cute scene that will make me sad if they take it out or change it all around :( I am not very happy right now. Well I guess on the bright side we are finally starting to see some action for the movie!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:37:51

I bet theyll keep the wedding in but it will probably be like Tonks and Lupin...idk anymoree

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:44:36

@texas_hammer: good one. I liked it. At least SOMEONE *cough*you*cough* can do something WORTH doing that HELPS PEOPLE. UNLIKE idiot WB!!!!! Gosh!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:45:14

I am so frustrated with the fact that David Yates will be most likely directing the seventh film too. If Arthur Weasley gets bit instead of Bill, this actually affects the outcomes of the future film. I wanted to see a grand wizard wedding, Shell Cottage, and Teddy Lupin. Speaking of Teddy Lupin, has David decided that Tonks should show her face in the sixth film or will he keep her in the dark too? I absolutely hated the fifth film and I was hoping the sixth and seventh would end up making up for it. I think its time we have new director to do the seventh. Im just sick of all this shhh thats ruining the movies! If only I was a witch...

eww...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 20:59:08

No offense, but I think people need to settle down a bit. Not a whole lot of these details people are complaining about havent been confirmed one way or the other (like Dumbledores funeral for example). The whole Mr. Weasley instead of Bill thing doesnt bother me, as itll make the attack more personal, since weve gotten to know Mr. Weasley in the movies, and Bill hasnt even been mentioned, let alone seen in any of the movies. In the end, as long as JK Rowling is happy with the movie, Im happy with it. As for the preview itself, I actually want to see it in theatres, even though it isnt really much. I just want to really hear Dumbledores voice saying that line, and the logo on the big screen. As for why its a bit later than usual, I really dont care. Its not like we werent going to get it eventually. Actually, I like that theyve held it back a bit. Helps build up the wait for the movie a bit more. Its going to be a loooong wait for the next one after this to come out. I really havent seen this much "fan" moaning since before the TF movie was released last year. Its kinda sad, imo, that so many people complain that they arent getting exactly what they want. I think everybody should just calm down a bit and wait to actually see the movie before complaining about it.

hey guys do u like the taste of soap because i DONT. lets all be happy about the trailer because everything is happy. yay.

woww things have gotten crazy here. anyway, is it only in imax??? why wouldnt they show it in regular theaters too? theres not an imax within 6 hours of here, and frankly, i dont care if its just 15 seconds of a black screen, i want to see a freaking preview so i can get irrationally excited!

THIS IS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT MUGGLENET LOL! i love the heated threads (sooo awesome during the shipper time), i love the die hards like myself that care a lot about this stuff and get worked up over it, i love the people who try to calm everyone down and get us less hostile, and the funniest posts come from the in-betweeners who have no clue why were all up in arms... Lol im sorry but i love it! SOO..... dont over load us with info WB!!!! Its not like were blowing up over it or anything! and the whole grayback, burrow, and bill thing is NOT floating my boat...

Wow... one line... a picture of Dumbledore... congratulations warner brothers. Well done.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 21:46:08

Ok. Time for an over view of everything thats been going on, been rumoured and been officially "released." As an avid Harry Potter fan, a dedicated reader for years on years, I have to say I too place alot in store in the movies. For example, when I heard that Dobby was going to be replaced by Neville in the last few movies (Its happened a few times now) I was almost distraught to the point where I was angry at the movie makers before Id even seen the films themselves. But now, having seen them and been through the book-to-film process 5 times and coming up to the 6th of 8th, weve all got used to the idea that the movies arent always going to be exactly the same as the books - and you know what? Perhaps they shouldnt be. The books are fantastic, dont get me wrong. But the movies simplify things for a viewing audience, a 2 hour time slot to take the viewers into another world and follow a quickly running plot - its not like a book where JK can spend countless chapters creating deep and mystifying plots. Sometimes things have to be changed to make the movies more understanding and bring sense to some hard-to-follow plots. JK oversees everything that goes on in all the movies, and if she is ok with, say, Bill and Fleur being taken out of the 6th film, then perhaps we should all get a grip and realise that the films ARENT THE BOOKS and that things like this happen! We should all be happy that our favourite series has the chance to become the award winning, world renowned films that they are today. Even after all this, half the rumours circulating havent been officially released and so people are getting all hyped up or aggrivated over nothing! Breath in, breath out. Realise that the movies arent the books, and they do their best. David Yates and the entire WB team are doing a fantastic job to follow the series through from start to finish and give us readers a chance to see our beloved books come to life in front of us. Now lets all sit down and shut-...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 21:47:47

The reason for the talk of the twight series was because of me, but I was just asking a few questions about the series and that is about it. Nothing more,ok??? Also are you, hpninjaskills part of the snitchseeker website(member) or were you just pointing out some new hp news for us, because mugglenet is too slow to update hp news??? The other reason I ask is because I will be soon a new member of the snitchseeker website!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:09:56

exactly, kokoro_ravenclaw. what are in the books may not entirely be great if transported into the big screen. they are two different mediums. but i must confess i have been also disappointed with the movies at times... but i got over it. cmon, its harry potter! youll love it no matter how it looks on screen :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:13:36

Rose37 - I do not run SnitchSeeker, but I am just a member. [hpnaiv] I checked it (I check leaky, this, ss, hpana, veritaserum, & oclumencia >> [even though I cant read it] daily. :D) Anyway, I checked SS & saw it, and just decided to let you all know about it. (: But I guess no one really saw what I wrote b/c they were all p/od or something about this 15 second teaser. Anyway, PEOPLE, THE REAL TEASER TRAILER IS COMING OUT ON AUGUST 1ST WITH THE MUMMY! :]

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:16:25

Id rather another picture, to be honest. And thats not saying much, as im not very fond of photos of girls with dodgy photoshop-looking glasses. I expect WB are going to have a riot of angry foul-mouths, by the look of these comments. MAYBE I COULD GET MY POINT ACROSS BETTER WITH CAPITAL LETTERS, SWEARING AND INNCORRECT SPELLING!?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:20:17

NO WAY!!! I cant believe how wonderfully long this preview is!=] (btw this comment is absolutely dripping with sarcasm.)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:20:49

I really didnt expect anything substantial. 15 seconds is barely long enough to show the WB logo. And I was right. They just showed a dark screen with a voiceover from Dumbledore. eehh. Great example of a "teaser" trailer. Theyre really teasing us...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:25:55

Like the price of the IMAX showing would even be worth seeing (or should i say hearing SINCE its only a black screen) that one stupid line. Wow. That is beyond ridiculous. And the Arthur Weasley thing? WTF. Just WTF.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:35:06

If their goal was to psst me off, they did it. CONGRADULATIONS WB! YOU HAVE OFFICIALLY PISSED ME OFF!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:35:26

How much is it for IMAX anyway ?! Is it THAT expensive?!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:38:24

well this is just a little upsetting... cant wait for real stuff to come out!

If they cut Bill out... Jesus... I want to say that I just wont go see the movies, but sadly, I cant say Ill hold up to that. I mean, come on, Im more excited for the theme park than the movies! ):

Heres something off topic, but VERY exciting!: Its a rumor that New Line Cinema is currently looking for a director for the movie adaption of the video game Shadow of the Colossus! For anyone who hasnt played Shadow of the Colossus, its the best game I have ever played, the story is amazing and heart-wrenching, and its a fast-paced, fantasy game! I wonder who the director will be?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 22:57:48

WTF!!! Youve gotta to be KIDDING me! Where do I start?! 1st what was that little bit of dialogue going on - was that suppose to get me excited?! Of anything it made me more HUNGRIER and ... MAD! And 2ndly, what with them cutting characters out, in stuff?! I mean, I understand that you gotta shorten stuff and all for the little buggers - so they can park it. But what about the rest of us? I mean, this dude cuts out the most important piece for the next film to come! I mean, 1st it BLOWING a HOLE in the ROOM OF REQUIREMENT : which plays a huge part in the sixth book, and even bigger part in the seventh! Then he cuts out Bill & Fleur in this film like their story is insufficient in the seventh book. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN, CAN ANYONE TELL ME?! It just sucks that because were huge HP fan were gonna see it no matter how sucky it is. Its gonna do great in the box office, and feel thats why he does it like that ... its not gonna make much of a different whether its good or bad. Were still gonna see it, I know I am. Ive been planning it sents last year. This all sucks thats all. :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 23:04:04

Well, this is a bit anti-climactic. So is this officially the teaser? Cuz if it is than that REALLY sucks. But, uh, yeah. Its something, I suppose (though not something good). :P Blah.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 23:16:08

The teaser trailer comes out with the Mummy on August 1st ^. Oh, and has anyone else noticed that when youre talking to someone about the Harry Potter movies, everyone always says they stink? Is it just me? Because whenever someone mentions them, everyones always like HP movies = stink. /:

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-14 23:24:15

^^Oh, OK. As long as this isnt the actual teaser trailer I feel better.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 07:25:35

Rose37: Well they are alot cheaper that the HP books. I got the paperback twilight yesterday for $8.88 i think and i got the hardback New Moon for like $13.72. I didnt think I would really care for the books either but i read the first 100 or so pages of twilight yesterday afternoon and last night I was havein dreams about vampires. Well the Cullen vampires. Good thing they dont drink human blood,lol. The books are worth 10 buck each, well I think so anyway.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 08:09:50

Isnt anyone enjoying all the suspense and tension? Lets face it, we will all get to see the film in November, then only two more left.... then.....I appreciate that some people are desperate for info, I am a HP fanatic so so am I, but closer to the movie we will have more, remember all the clips from OOTP b4 it was released? And obviously they cant fit all the 600 and odd pages in 2 and a half hours or whatever, they have to make cuts and changes, and I for one think it has worked out reasonably well up until now, yeah I do get annoyed when certain stuff is left out, but they do the best they can!

Theyre still leaving out too much! And adding too much! Doesnt a deatheater attack on the burrow ruin the whole point of Voldemort lying low and gathering his army? And growing stronger? Raising the suspense? Bidding his time? And we have a random Death Eater attack?!

The story plot for the movies are way of the charts by now, it is not even funny how different the movies and books are!!! Also I will see if the my money is worth ten bucks or not. I know that isnt alot of money for a book, but I have tried so hard to move away from hp, than no book has ever gone past the first chapter, without being brought back to the library the next day. That I dont want to end up happening again!!!

Bahahaha, thats ridiculous. Theyre being so SECRETIVE.

sorry phoenix_knight, no to start a fight about that but I started at about that time too and it was already really famous. I met many who started before us both

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 14:14:33

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 14:31:51

I had started in December of 2001!!! So in turn I was one of the late bloomers when it came to hp, but in the end I caught up with all of the reading and news and here I am now. 6 years oldered and with six years of my life having to do with hp and that is sad to amit, but is very true!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 14:34:44

Well I for one am from the UK, and I started the month after Philosophers Stone was released. So THERE. I dont mean to start a fight, either.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 15:50:54

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 16:01:39

Let the battle begin!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 16:04:20

is it true that there is no harry/ginny kiss? because if you go on to msn video and type in harry potter and the half blood prince it shows harry and ginny walking up to each other like there gonna make out... by the way emma watson is hot!!!!! and bonnie wright is too!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 16:08:27

and also kokoro_ravenclaw you cant be that much of a fan because theres 7 harry potter movies and books, not 8!!! you said the 6th of 8

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 16:13:11

hockeymatt1, I didnt check what youre arguing about but there are going to be 8 movies, DH has two parts. continue

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 16:30:15

hockeymatt1, I agree on SOME accounts . . . but they you capitalized your words in such a brital almost makes me think a puck to hard to the head, perhaps?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 18:12:40

hahahahaha, texas_hammer that was GREAT

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 19:12:40

Okay, did they really take out the Harry/Ginny kiss?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 21:05:35

this is stuipd we dont even see anything. BTW the new james bond movie which comes out shortly before this movie already has a 1minute 30second trailer. ( pulls hair in frustration )

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 21:19:10

tiassa lol i didnt think of the 2 part i was thinking of the 7 books technically there is 7 movies but the 7th one has part one and part two and texas_hammer lol im not retarted im just pissed off

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 21:26:40

Is each part of DH going to be 2 hours long and butchered beyond recognition?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 23:14:52

What no fight??? Come on people!!! Let get a arguement going on here!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-15 23:22:50

"Once again..." I must ask Yates to stop screwing up Harry Potter.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 01:04:11

hockeymatt1, ok sorry as I said I didnt check the whole argument. Fia, yes. They are WB.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 05:37:38

Okay, kids. What are we? Pre-schoolers? No, I didnt think so. Stop acting like ungrateful, little twits. Were all going to go see it regardless. If youre not going to go see it, then you REALLY have no business complaining. You people, as fans, have to understand that everything is ran by the mastermind of this wonderful world weve fallen in love with. Jo has the ultimate say so. She has praised the films. Everything MUST be okd with her before it gets the green light. Every character cut, every sub-plot removed is put through to her first. So, to be upset with the decisions is to be upset with her. She knows what is more valuable in the series than any of us. If Bill being cut is okay by her, then it is okay by me and it should be okay with you. The 15-minute dialogue preview is a marketing strategy. WB is not going to cater to us fans. They are going to cater to everyone. In fact, it is an excellent marketing strategy. Like someone else here said, they know were going to see it. Were the real fans. Theyre just reeling in the regular movie-goer. Was anyone not enticed by this news? I was. I was foaming at the mouth to see the film and Im a die-hard Harry Potter fan. What do you think the regular movie-goer will think? Theyre going to be intrigued. Its a good move, people. We will get a real teaser trailer soon. Eventually, and you may not have known this, we will get the actual film. And then you can start complaining all over again. But for now? Shut up.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 05:48:41

Also, stop complaining to David Yates about how much he sucks for cutting characters. That decision is left with the screenwriter who is, unfortunately, Steve Kloves. So, if you must complaing, send them to him. Its his "fault". And you must remember, these are adapted from the books. Adaptation means to be adjusted to new conditions. The book has to be ADJUSTED and CHANGED to become a movie. To expect an exact paper to film copy would be, as Dumbledore put it in Half-Blood Prince (which is fitting since were all complaining about it), "optimistic to the point of foolishness". So, stop.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 08:41:02

IT WILL STILL BE BUTCHERED LIKE OOTP!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 09:57:01

yes, im dissapointed that the teaser trailer isnt longer and is just a blank screen, but if you see it in the cinema with dumbledores voice, i can totally picture myself getting uberly excited. also WTF is david yates doing? yes, hes a brilliant director but hes messing us around and changing the plot. hes dissapointing millions of fans around the world, with what he might think are small changes.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 10:08:27

and how are they going to do the DH scene when harry and dobby etc apparate to fluer and bills house beside the sea? it wouldnt work cause thats where they stay cause no one would guess that they were there. david yates is being a total arse.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 10:56:58

Whoa! Koolzies, that was TOTALLY discriminating against pre-schoolers. Let us not forget that YOU were a pre-schooler once. Get over yourself. Yelling is at everyone you can is an idiotic and stupid hobby! Go eat some pie!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 11:52:13

Koolzies, I completely agree with you!!!! Well said indeed!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 11:54:58

*pukes in contempt*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 12:03:21

cant wait for the trailer!!!!! regardless of length, we will all see the film and more than likely a longer trailer before long, then only 2 more films to go, does everyone want that magical experience over that quickly?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 12:33:39

You know what people, irishfanaticwhobelievessn apeisgood is 100% right and I for one will lay back and wait until the movie comes out. I wont see any of the hp trailers. No matter how good they turn out to be or no matter how important they way be. I will just Wait!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 12:57:13

his is kinda off topic and random and it might be old news, but isnt kinda weird that Ginny looks like Lily in a way and thats why JKR might of pick Ginny to be Harrys wife since he looks like James also harry might of fell for Ginny because she reminded him of his mother in a way. THIS IS REALLY RANDOM BUT I NEED 2 GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD. b/c i notice when they were in the dept of mystery in the 5th movie and after Ginny used reducto on that death eater theres a shot of Ginny and Harry close together and they look like Lily and James.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 13:12:22

yep the similarities between james and lily, harry and ginny , are there, but I dont think harry fell for ginny because of her kind of similarity to Lily. I think JKR drew similarites between the two couples so show history repeating itself, and that a black haired man and a red headed woman can fall in love again years after the first couple like then did, but that this time they can live happly in a world where Voldemort is vanquished! Thats my 2 cents on the matter anyhoo!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 14:23:58

Im not sure that JKR had much influence in the casting but who knows. I mean, the two actresses have been the same since the first movie, right? They resemble each other. It could be a coincidence or it could be by design. Im guessing it is the former. That being said....the two are often decribed similarly and Im sure thats no accident. OH!! the_shrieking_snack...IS there pie? And let me hop on the bandwagon: WTF!!I want a better trailer!! WTF!!!David Yates is the anti-Christ!!! WTF!!! WB is run by booger-eating mouth breathers!!! Did I mention WTF?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-16 15:49:07

@R_U_Sirius, dude, you SO get points for that! Yelling at other Mugglenet users sucks, but yelling at injustice in the form of a power-hungry corporation? RIGHT ON!!!!!!!! Pie goes to you, dude!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 05:18:16

I love how last year when we were getting Order of the Phoenix movie news left and right and we got new clips of the movie every week, half of you were complaining that the movie had been basically ruined because of all of the clips being shown. Sigh, you reap what you sow.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 14:24:30

EXCELLENT OBSERVATION koolzies , *SIGHS* IVE SAID IT ONCE, ILL SAY IT AGAIN.... HARRY POTTER FANS ARE SOO FICKLE! THEY SAY SOMETHING TODAY, THEY SAY SOMETHING ELSE NEXT YEAR! I WAS QUITE GLAD WE WERE GETTING "SPOILED" WITH THE MOVIE... IT WAS ALL THESE ROTTEN FANS THAT WERE WHINING SAYING" NO! YOURE SPOILING THE MOVIE FOR US! NO CLIPS!" NOW LOOK! YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW... WB TOOK THEM SERIOUSLY AND NOW WERE GETTING NOTHING! NEXT TIME THE HP FANS NEED TO THINK B4 THEY SPEAK, ESPECIALLY FOR THE FACT THAT WB CREW MEMBERS LIKE DAVID HEYMAN READ MUGGLENET AND OUR IGNORANT POSTS ~PHOENIX PARTOL OUT!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 17:23:13

ive waited months....for that?!! are you kidding me... we dont even get to see anything! it took them this long to come up with THAT? wow, inspires such a lot of confidence in the film doesnt it? :S

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 17:36:05

hey, thanks to the previous poster (i cant find the post) about going to msn and click on video and search hp and hbp trialer. I am on page 2 and some of the "trailers" are fabulous!!! Whets my appetite!! Even the music is great. I wonder if wb can do something as good! doubt it. some of the scenes even look new!! Oh, and not to get off topic but i did go to see journey 2 the center of the earth in 3-d. EXCELLENT!!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 17:39:17

this is sooo FRUSTRATING! a blank screen and a logo, thanks WB :p

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 17:53:25

hi, its me again at msn videos for the harry potter trailer. I dont know if this is real, but it is very, very good. of course its posted on youtube and is about 2 min & 19 secs. If WB can do a trailer this good....great but this is really good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3 XGbyAi2R8. I was watching with my mouth open!!! Mixes old scenes with new scenes. Thought you ought to know!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-17 18:08:28

i know this trailer was probably "put together" by someone but its really good. i noticed in my post above there is a space between the 3 and the X. there really is no space in the website. i could watch THAT trailer all nite!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-18 02:50:41

I just saw Dark Knight and low and behold NO teaser trailer!!! SOOO MAD!!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-18 20:17:39

Actually I just watched it and I think it says "Once again, I must ask too much of you, Harry."

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-19 23:44:42

Ok, you guys, seriously, CALM DOWN. WBs MAIN priority is The Dark Knight but now that its released WB will focus on HBP. OKAY?!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 03:06:13

wow EXCITING... 1 line by Dumbledore. Surely thats not the most exciting thing thats been filmed so far? Im getting seriously worried. GIVE US A REAL TEASER TRAILER

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 08:29:03

heyy guys stop freakin out about the teaser...i know the teaser is lame but its a gud move by wb.. if you already have the exciting parts of the movie in the trailer and teaser then you might just be dissapointed with the movie(this is what happened in ootp).. i felt really excited when i saw the teaser!!..it was giving out so much and still concealing much more!! but im really pissed with wht is happening with mr weasley in this movie!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 10:18:34

ARE YOU FRIGGEN SERIOUS? Weve been waiting for this trailer for forever! And are you guys serious about Arthur getting mauled by Grayback?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 10:27:14

lol your welcome hooked_on_harry i was the one that posted the msn trailer thing:D yeah i know some of them are really good and also firey_princess and sweeterised harry potter is way more important than the dark knight!!!! and angelina yeah most people say that its arthur instead of bill that gets mauled by greyback... :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 11:03:28

I went yesterday at the IMAX to see "The Dark Knight" and no trailer of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", I was little disapponted. The movie is kool, but no trailer :0((.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 12:34:22

Actually, what Dumbledore is really saying in the teaser is: "Once again, I must ask too much of you, Harry." and not what was written in the news feed. I cant believe that no one has noticed that.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-07-20 18:28:36

I did see a teaser in a brazilian site... this is the link http://www1.folha.u ol.com.br/folha/videocast s/ult10038u423414.shtml take a look it seems legit.
