So that new trailer is actually the same with a different release date?

Want to protest the release date change? Click on the official Harry Potter Website link in this news item and tell WB exactly what you think about the release date change. There are several nice boxes for you to type it in. Mention a Total Boycott of WB movies and licensed products to enhance WBs understanding of how badly they have honked off the Harry Potter fans!

of course...the new date, ujum, i will not be watching THAT version of the trailer. I am in denial and i will not admit the change until Nov 21...maybe even a week after that. The last thing u lose is Hope. And I still hope that someone steals the movie right under WB noses and post it on the internet BWAHAHAHAHA! and they will lose all the money that they Think they get by moving the date so far away. They are soooo greedy, all of them.
Yeah Yeah i know piracy is bad. or isnt?

oooohh! nice NEW teaser!! *rolls eyes* youd think that if they delayed it, they would have perhaps at least given us a NEW trailer..
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 13:22:29
So that was the new trailer? It was too early for a new one anyway. And I think that WB has made it pretty clear that theyre not going to change the release date, so quit whining. Sorry, but Im not going to mope around for almost a year. Im not saying that I approve of the greedy, money-hungry descision, but theres not really anything we can do about, can we?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 13:25:35
My bad. go to www.harrypotter.warnerbro s.com/ click on MOVIES at the top. Click on SURVEY at the bottom of the trailer screen. Lots of nice places to write things in the boxes.

Guys, I am pretty sure this is NOT the new trailer, so dont freak out. But wow, I had forgotten what a brilliant trailer that was. It really is very good. The timing of everything is so dramatic and exciting. Sigh. And, like dramaqueen, I do not by any means approve of WBs shallow and greedy decision, but I have gotten used to the idea now, and perhaps this extra time will be taken to make the movie even better than it would have been.

Not a new trailer and the date was changed within a day. I checked to make sure the date change was not a rumor. Why is WB constantly poring salt in the wound. Sounds like a publicity stun to me. Do not be surprised if they set the date to Nov. 27 (Thanksgiving in the US) and this was just a way to get free advertising.

I love how theyre basically saying "screw you fans." Theyre not even considering the December option. What they should do is tell us why they dont want to release it in December. Im no longer excited about HBP because Im too furious with WB. Theyre really digging themselves into a deeper hole with the fans by posting this stuff. Its like theyre trying to make us feel better, only to make sure they get their aimed profit in July, but really it only makes me more irritated because it shows that they do not care in the slightest. It makes them look like they think theyre above us and all so mighty that they can get away with what they want. Really, without us, they wouldnt have a job. Im just a stubborn person so Im not going to be like "*sigh* Im over it. Ill just pretend this never happened, come July." I dont care what all of you people do, but Im no longer going to support WB. Therefore, why hand them my hard earned money? Thats exactly what they want and Im not giving it to them. You lot can go ahead. Im not and you cant change my mind because Im just so disgusted with that company. Call me immature, childish, an overreactor, I really dont give a darn. Im stubborn, thats what. I actually go through with my feelings and with what I say. Nothing irritates me more than seeing people in the wrong getting away with everything. I WILL see the movie in IMAX for the 3D part... but after that? Online and buying tickets for another movie to sneak in, ftw.

Screw the new trailer!! I want my movie!!! I wanted my Voldemort-controlled zombies this year!! darn WB, darn the to hell!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 14:39:21
Now it shows July thats nice.I like WB and I thinks its better to be in July.July is the month in which Harry Potter and J.K.Rowling are born.
And stop whining about November cant you see that you are humilaiting yourself, little babies.If it was in Nowember I was gonna see it once now it is July and Im gonna see about 20 times.

Hey!
Maybe now Dan, Rupert, and Emma will go to Comic-Con this summer, the it and the premiere are only a few days apart! Dont get me wrong, Im just as angry as everyone else. But Im not going to stay in a depression for 11 months, waiting for WB to change their minds (which theyre not going to do now that Twilight took the spot).
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 14:53:18
WOW! THE SAME EXACT ONE! EXCEPT, THE DATE HAS ONLY CHANGED! HMMM IT WAS AWESOME! NOTHING NEW ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS A RIP OFF
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 14:55:17
If Dan, Rupert, and Emma break to attend Comic-Con do you really believe DH will be released Nov. 2010? We will be lucky if we see them at the premieres. Or should I just be honest and admit we will be lucky to see DH1 Nov. 2010.

Hey idiots this isnt the new trailer. They are just telling you that the reease date on the end was changed. the new one is gonna come out later. Anyway the pic is very boring they need more pics with the trio.

Please stop this boycoting its getting Harry Potter fans a bad name.Lets just wait for the movie and go see 20 times.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:16:37
how is it giveing us a bad name its showing we stand up for what we belive in and were not to be messed with
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:21:09
weasleyisdaking: It is highly unlikely that a couple hundred people boycotting WB will do anything. Annoy them with MAIL, not (attempts at) boycotting which is the stupidest idea ever. You can always just accept the fact that we have to wait an extra 8 months and not be an immature baby who cant accept it when things dont go his/her way.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:22:29
The people in the net are saying that we 300 days is nothing.For example the Hobbit look how many years fans are still waiting for it.

I believe Half Blood Prince is going to be the coolest movie ever and Im gonna watch in the cinema because you know the feeling is different like you are in the movie while watching it on the computer is just wont give the excitement.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:28:27
i can wait im just saying thatt we all have diffrent opions and mine happens to be diffrent than yours. mine is that if we work together we can get things done yours is to sit and do nothing and let other people do things that your afriad to do and how does going atfer what i beleive in make me a baby ?
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:29:09
friends, if you look carefully, in the post it says the trailer has been updated and not that this is the new trailer. on the other hand if I misread and this is the new trailer that is a massive ripoff!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:33:04
This whole rebellion against moving Half-Blood Prince IS making us look bad. Its one thing to protest for your right to live, your role in the community, your health or your salary, but WB isnt obligated to release the movies just for you; until the sales transaction is completed, you are no way but theoretically part of the deal, because its their movie and they have the rights to control it. The Harry Potter franchise isnt ours just because we like it; on the contrary, WB and J.K. Rowling created it. They are sharing the results of their talent with you, and when you whine like this about details of their work that you selfishly want to control or take credit for (such as the Lexicon suit and Dumbledores orientation) youre essentially coveting the fruits of their labor and devaluing it. So yes, thats why you look bad.
The most humorous thing about this ordeal, is that the movie is coming out in less than a year; there was practically nothing to promote it so far except a sunk trailer, and yet everyones whining that they got their hopes up. Pray tell, how? Pictures? If we could wait years for J.K. Rowling to release book after book, we can wait the extra time for Half-Blood Prince.

weasleyisdaking fighting?why to and to break all relationships of the WB and to leave people who had worked their lifes for Harry Potter just for some 300 days I dont think so and a lot of people dont suppor this idea so my opinion is that as Hermione said in the Goblet of Fire Its not going to work
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:45:34
i have said my opion over and over you just dont seem to get it if we work together we can get things OK and theymake them FOR US they dont make them because there bored and three hundred days is alott

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:58:16
TrancendingVista - we got our hopes up because WB annouced the release date months ago. When the trailer first came out it ended with Nov. 21 , 2008. WB released the world wide release dates just a week before the change with the US date as Nov. 21. WB has called it a delay so they have admitted the date has changed. How could you question how we got our hopes up? WB lied. I guess when someone lies to you it is there right to decieve you since they own the information and can release it as they please.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 15:58:38
I have a question: Did JK Rowling had any "say" ,or something like that, about the HBP delay, couldnt she stand up for her fans? MAN! I wish someone from WB who likes HP would steal the film and puts it on the internet. Anyway, Im still going to watch the film on July, but Im still mad with WB.

i totally agree with you bethinoz. we were so excited and now we are just so mad at WB.
and yeah hermy.i saw like half the movie before OotP. i couldnt resist looking at all the scenes and the pictures.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 16:48:30
Bethinoz - Im really dissapointed in the move too, but I wouldnt say that WB lied. Theres something wrong in their administration though, because of the mass miscommunication. You know how on the Terms of Use on everything, it says "we have the right to change our policy on any of the above"? They didnt really make us a promise, they made us an estimate. Its like changing your schedule to make going somewhere more convenient; it doesnt mean you lied, it means you had to do something else.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 17:09:21
TrancendingVista - If I commit to be some where or do something for someone I do not conside it as an esitmate. If I have to cancel I have a better reason than money is more important than my word. No where on any of the anoucements from WB was estimate or "we have the right to change our policy on any of the above" listed. Are you trying to say if you are a big company you can say or do anything you like? I guess they have not really made us a promise that the movie will be released July 17. Do not make any plans around the movie folks. If and when it hits the theatres we will see it but do not hold your breath.

bethinoz: Money is important to all businesses; everything they do revolves around money. They dont care about anyones feelings or anything; just money.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 17:17:08
chommy - For all of you say they understand because WB is a company and they need to make money please read. Harry Potter is being delayed because Horn may not get his bonus next year if he does not come up with a way to increase revenue for 2009. He does not care if Harry Potter makes more money. HPB may actually make less money in 2009 since there will be less hype. The Tales of Beedle the Bard and Harry Potter And The Sorcerers Stone: 10th Anniversary Edition are both coming out this year. Dan will be in New York doing Equus on Broadway. The only HP event announced for 2009 is the movie. Thanksgiving weekend (Nov. 27, 2008) is one of the largest movie weekends in the US. The reason OOTP did so well in July was because the book was coming out in the same month. I know alot of people who went to the movie and stood in line for the book. The actors will be filming DH in 2009. If they are still filming in July will they break to do the film premiers? Will David Yates and his staff miss the premiers or continue preparing DH? If everyone stops work on DH to promote HBP will DH be ready for the 2010 release? How many HP fans will flip to Twilight? Do not let Horn make you believe this had anything to do with WB making more money on HBP. It is all about him and his bonus!

Everyone has the right to have their own opinion, so if they want to boycott WB then let them. Im not really sure if this was really planned as a publicity stunt, but if it was then WB got what they deserved when Twilight took their spot. Im not going to see Twilight; it just made me mad that they took HBPs spot as soon as it opened.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 17:31:19
DramaQueen0526 - Do not be mad at Twilight. They made a good business decision. Thanksgiving weekend (Nov. 27, 2008) is the largest movie weekend in the US. WB is the one making poor decisions. The top people are more concerned with thier pocket books than with the welfare of the company.

TrancendingVista - This link is the list of dates WB put out not more than a week before the annoucement of the delay. Please note not one word about estimate or we have the right to change any or all dates http://harrypotter.warner bros.co.uk/releasedates/

no its not bethinoz. i didnt read the hp books till i had seen the fourth movie. i am really mad that i didnt get to read the books first. my family told me who had died before i read the books up till the seventh and i HATED it. im readin Twilight right now before i see the movie.

wow i had forgotten how good that trailer was 2!!!!!!!!! i even got my dad to watch it twice. and i love it. and i LOVE how dumbledore says No," at the very end. that was awesome. i guess that even though the first guy was more cuddly, the second guy (michael gambom right?) has a better edge-y voice. yeah. anyway..........

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 19:59:35
Wow! Another new picture, courtesy of WB (*drips in sarcasm*). Whatever.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 20:01:34
Blueshadow- yeah, that was Ginny.
And I didnt read the books until after the 4th movie too, and I was way confused on most parts. But thankfully I dont have any brothers or sisters to spoil it for me. I think Micheal Gambon makes a better Dumbledore than the first guy. Hes more... peaceful?

yeah coz shaking harry and yelling "DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE" is really peaceful. by the way guys, i think this IS the new trailer that we were expecting, WB denied that theyve made a new trailer, so the one submitted to BBFC must have just been this updated one.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 21:13:44
How do I know that everyone who says they will boycott the movie will actually boycott the movie. 11 months is a long time, and people who are upset now might just change their minds. And please, stop the name calling. Its really not fair. People are upset, but there is no need to call them names if they plan to avoid the movie. Anyway, I think once the movie comes out, people will change their minds and go see it.

"July" - Thats the only thing different. Dont waste your time people.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 21:43:37
If any of you is as upset and outraged as I am for the STUPID decicion made by WB in pushing HBP for July just for the MONEY, I suggest you go to the offical WB web site and send them your thoughts through the FEEDBACK option for the Harry Potter site. Just tell them how you feel about it!!! As for me, I am BOYCOTTING all WB products until July 2009, and probably will do so for the movie as well. How? I probably will wait about four days and go see the movie at 2 P.M. when the theatre is empty, buy a ticket for a movie made by any other studio and enter to see HBP. Thats our payback time for what they did to us! And I dont care what anybody says!!! Only true Harry Potter fans know what it feels like to be lied to, and treated with DISLOYALTY!!! And we are not happy about it. I would take Alan Horn to the dark forest to have him beat up by centaurs!! Anyway, WB ruined the whole hype for me and I dont want to see trailers or pictures. I want the movie in November as originally announced by WB!! Well, WB will learn a new meaning for the word MISTAKE. WB screwed up big time and I will not see them the same way again. Be strong people and dont buy a thing from WB, just remember what they did to us, and for what? MONEY!!!! SCREW YOU WB!!!!!!

*sigh* WB are horrible people who dont give a darn about any of us! This is so depressing.... I understand why they cant movie back to November now because twilight took its spot, but why cant they move it to december or january. Honestly Potter fans everywhere will see it many times no matter whens its released, so why make us all angry! the amount of money it will make in july would be the same as if it were released in november. CONTINUE emailing and sending letters, we can still change their minds!!

For those of you who do not want to boycott or sign petitions or the like, then by all means, do that. That is your decision for YOUR lives. I support your right to come on here and declare that you will be going to see the movie and that you are fine with WBs decision and that is that. But you do not have the right to come on here and tell others not to do as they see fit. Name calling is infantile, as is trying to control the actions of others, especially on a Harry Potter website. Everyone is entitled to their emotions and opinions in this matter, as in all other matters on here. Please learn to respect others.
I, myself, am boycotting the WB until July. I will not go opening weekend, either and yes, I have signed petitions and sent howlers. I believe in making a stand, regardless of what the result will be. I do it for my own sense of self-respect. I feel I was lied to and that the WB misrepresented themselves and the product they were putting forth, only to explain themselves by actually stating it was mainly a monetary move. I will respond how I see fit, you respond in your own way.
All is well.

keesli well why are you sending emails to other fans for telling to boycott.

Ha. Im not even going to bother watching it ey. Just a date change, woopdee-friggin-do-dah. And why would they even bother releasing any more photos? To be honest i think WB made a really bad decision, not only because they have hurt all of us [their money btw] but also because all the hype that they had begun to build is now lost. I dont know about everyone else but I feel that the lead up to July 17th isnt going to be anything like the build up to any other HP movie. I think theyve dissapointed too many people and I think the fans are going to make them pay for it. I for one am avoiding the cinema until atleast a week after its release and will only be watching it once. WB has made us wait this long I think that we, as HP fans, should unit together and refuse to go and see it in the opening week. Theyve made us wait this long havent they? Is ruining the reputation of WB really worth the money? They better hope it is.

For goodeness sake, people! Money is the only reason for businesses! They dont care about us, they care about the money we give them! Thats not just WB, thats every other company! So please be quiet! Why did they release the movies? For us to enjoy? NO! So that they can get money! Thats why the all the good books to movies, and not the ones that no one reads! So, people, stop saying WB are being greedy, because every company is greedy!

chommy - do you really believe WB will make more money by delaying? I know I have said it before but once again, they will make LESS money by delaying. Check out my previous comments for all the reasons.

If the folks at WB had been a small time business that was hard for money, this all would be so much more understandable. But theyre not.
They already have billions of dollars. What people need to understand is yes, business is about cash, but when they have so much as it is (that they wouldnt have without us to begin with), you should think of the fans too. What they are basically doing is choosing the cash over the fans. The cash that they already have plenty of. And whether it be Harry Potter, Star Wars, Lord Of The Rings -- in general, its just WRONG.
WB needs to be taught a lesson. Because seriously, what if we dont do anything? All the more they wont take us seriously the next time around, and theyll once again feel free to do whatever they want with OUR Potter films.
Please, join this facebook group for The International Friends Of Harry Potter: http://www.facebook.com/g roup.php?gid=23 519089579. We are planning live protests all across the world that is to happen at the same hour on the same day. We are trying to get media coverage, we have a press release sent out and everything. We already have 1000+ members, volunteering from places like the USA and Canada to the UK, Italy, and Egypt. We have shirts. We are planning to DO SOMETHING about this.
Even if we cant change WBs mind, the most we can do is embarrass the HELL out of the WB in the publics eye for their greed. We have already had a mention in the LA Times: http://latimesblogs.latim es.com/herocomplex/2008/0 8/harry-potter-fa.html and ABC News: http://www.abcnews.go.com /Technology/story?id=5605 992. And the protest hasnt even happened yet.
When Harry had a disagreement with the Ministry, did he just sit around and take it? Did he calm down because "Mugglecast" said so? No, he formed his own army, Dumbledores Army to stand up to people who were greedy and only cared about themselves. Please, the more people we can get, the more of a chance this just might work.
Its what Har...

Siriusly: Untitled to their own opinion? Learn to spell, my friend. ;) And thelexirumor: Do you really think a company with a lot of money would just go Hey, since we have so much money, lets just stop caring about money and think of our fans!? They arent like that. These show business people are greedy little monkeys. D: And I dont think anything we do can change their minds but, again, lets annoy them as much as we can. All this boycotting stuff=useless. Annoying them=YESS! And lots of you are saying you will not watch the movie opening weekend; I doubt it. A week before the movie comes out, all of you will be going OMG! I CANT WAIT! I know I will. xD And, bethinoz, I think HBP will make the same amount of money either way, or maybe a little less. And just because they arent at the premieres doesnt mean no one will watch it. And I wont be switching to Twilight for one reason: Im not a girl.

By the way, bethinoz, I saw an interview on Youtube of Rupert and Emma at the premiere of Philosophers Stone and the interviewer asked when theyll start filming and Rupert said hes already filming and Emma said shell be filming the month after. So it might be the same situation here.

I do believe that it is a companies main objective to make money. That said I also believe that was not the goal when the HBP was delayed. I have given all my reasons before so if you are curious you can check out my previous comments or ask and will post them again. My point is that if you have or know anyone with Time Warner or WB stock I would be warning them that the decions are being made based on what will put money in the pockets of upper level managment, by way of bonuses, and not what is best for the company.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 12:00:39
chommy, It was annouced by WB, so it may not true, that filming was to start Feb 2009 for DH1 and DH2. Dan Radcliff will be in New York doing Equus until Jan 2009. So most of the scenes requiring actors will not start until he gets back to England.

chommy, When Sorcerers Stone was released the trio where not as busy as they are now and where giving as many interviews as they are now requested. Now the premiers are a big deal.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 16:24:37
bethinoz: No! Theyre the smart people who know boycotting will do nothing but make people go Those HP nerds are idiots! My brothers and friends made fun of me when I told them about it!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 16:45:04
Do nothing and nothing changes. What did they make fun of you about? You were lied to and have a right to be upset. If you do nothing but sit back and whine then they should make fun of you.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 16:55:51
What were doing is sitting back and waiting! You people are sitting back and whining! Am I whining? Im mad, too, but Im smart enough to know that boycotting will do nothing! Previous comments have said that people have watched Clone Wars already and thats the only major Wb movie coming out this year (at least to my knowledge) so your boycotting schemes are useless! People need to get a grip and use their brains! WE CANNOT TO ANYTHING!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 17:16:29
Obviously the people who went to Clone Wars feel the same way you do. If you are sitting back and waiting why are on line complaining about the people who want to do something. The only way to get big business to listen is to hurt there pocket books. Big business has brain washed most people into believing they can do nothing when they get poor service. So that is exactly what we get poor service.

Honestly what is wrong with postponing the movie? No Harry Potter fan LIKES it, but its LEGAL, and we dont know any of the WB execs personally (I dont anyway) so they have nothing to owe us. Theyre being courteous for apologizing, in fact. And stomping our fists demanding entertainment makes us look like a mob, not righteous protestors.
WB could do a lot worse! These are the people who spent billions of dollars to make the most expensive movies on the planet! How can you slam them as "big buisiness only out for money" if you buy their products loyally, and then only get upset when they muck up a release date? And you know what will happen if you try to cut funds from them by boycotting them? They could muck up more release dates.
Plus, Alan Horn has an interesting point. Come back this place July, theyll have the Half-Blood Prince movie out. A few months later, Deathly Hallows, then in even less time Deathly Hallows 2. Then the theme park. Wont that be cool to have an entire years time when theres tons of movie news? Give them some time to get prepared first, and maybe youll have more fun. Maybe somewhere along the way Harry Potter fans forgot this was all about fun and lost all their patience...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 19:27:47
Fine, so WB owns the movie and they can do what they want with it, we have no control over it right? WROOOOONG!!! I jusr wont buy their product!!! Thats as much power and control I have and I intend to use it. I wont give WB a penny of my hard earned dollars!!! Hows that!!! If we all do that, the impact will be huge!!! After all, we make the numbers at the box office. WB makes the movie, but we have the money they COVET!!! Thats why they changed the movie for July! Because they are GREEDY! But guess what, I am free to NOT give them a penny! Now, whos boss??

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 22:50:30
man, seeing the teaser trailer makes me want
to see the movie right now!!!! i dont think
ill be able to wait until july, especially

Raven, youre wrong. Were as pissed as you but we know that boycotting will do nothing, which is all were trying to say. Just wait patiently and please stop acting like you guys can make a difference to a big company like WB. Im all for hate mails, though (Ive send a few myself) but all this boycotting business is stupid and rubbish.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-23 16:37:28
By the way, can people stop saying that were WB employees? Thats one of the most stupidest things Ive ever heard. Please, grow up. Just because we disagree with you doesnt mean were WB employees. Were just people who are smart and arent in agreement with you.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-23 18:26:34
chommy - Hate mail is smart? How can boycotting do nothing when you say the only thing that matters to WB is money. Do you know what boycotting means?
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-23 18:58:51
Im not saying hate mail is smart, but I just like it. ;p I mean, what else can I do? xD And boycotting CAN do something but since WBs big movie (The Dark Knight) is already out and since it already made so much money this year then boycotting is useless! They already made lots of money this year so boycotting is, really, useless! And I know perfectly what boycotting means, thank you very much.

I have been reading what every one has been saying about the new release date which i have to agree sucks big time. As a fan who has read all of the books and seen all the movies that are out so far I agree with every one of you who wants to strom the castle(wb) that they are just doing it for the money. With every one either not seeing it or only seeing it once and those who are not going to see any thing that has WB on it, wb is going to lose money that they would make if they would just put the movie back to Nov. I thik that if you are posting that people need to just get over it that we are all going to watch it anyway are tratiors or work for wb. Do i think that all this bitching is going to work probably not but mircles happen every day and this could be one. If all of this does work I know I will be one of many happy people. To those who are emailing, writhing, or calling wb to complain I have to say keep it up and make sure you acttually lodge good complaints and not just say you are mean greedy s.o.b.s cause i think it will have a better effect. So keep it up and let OUR VOICES BE HEARD.

Its over now; we just have to sit tight for 11 more months. Just because the movie got postponed doesnt mean you have to throw a fit; its like getting angry about not getting what you want (In which case, we did). Everyone, just stop bugging out about the HBP delay, cause its not helping; actually, all its doing is making us HP fans look like a bunch of little kids who found out playtime was cancelled. If Harry Potter fans start joining Twilight websites, Ill know its because of the attitude of the rest of the Harry Potter community about the delay.

wizard_vamp_6244215
shut up no one cares if you like the bitching or not. even if all the complaing doesnt work us harry potter fans can girl about it if we want. we dont care if we sound like a bunch of little kids. at least here on mugglenet we can yell scream or whatever we need to do to deal with the july release date and have understanding from others who feel the same way. if you dont like it then quit coming to mugglenet and reading how people feel. ITS CALLED FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!!!!!!! so get over it.
