Oh my gosh! it's not even two years yet and they already have the release date? At this rate we'll have the release date for the 7th movie before the book is even released! Wow! But i still can't wait! sweet!
Steve Kloves, YES!! I can see the Harry/Ginny 'first kiss' scene now!!!
Gah lee, like everyone else is saying; "already?" One thing at a time people one thing at a time lol. Although i am excited as well about the 6th movie just as much as the 5th. hope the last 3 turn out just as good if not better than the 1st 4. =] cant wait.
ooohhhh, great! can't wait... i hope the trio and the other actors are still on it! i love warner bro.
Also i would like to add that personally im glad they are doing one movie right after the other so that way we dont really see much of an age difference with the characters. I hope they do that with the 7th movie as well. It's kinda good that they will still be doing the movies after the 7th book so we wont feel like its totally over yet.
oh geeze. thats CRAZY! thats like the fall i go TO COLLEGE! my mouth dropped tho. the actors will be old by then? you think they are gonna get new ones? i hope not! but why tell us now???? im so excited now..but thats so long away...i didnt even thinnk they were gonna make a 6th one?!
OMG!! YAY!! :) I just hope that this is definite. I mean they haven't even chosen a director yet, so how could they have possibly determined a release date? And don't the actors/actresses need a little break?
OMG this is awesome! Wow they are really trying to finish these in a hurry now. I CANT WAIT!!!! :D
YEAH! More Harry Potter! And, on a I-can't-wait-that-long-I'm-too-excited-note: With the kids "grown-up" (read: out of school) they will be able to make the films much faster. :) Cady
If someone just saw me, they'd have thought I was crazy. I thought they were talking about OotP!!!
wow aren't they getting a little ahead of themselves
sweet. wow its going to be short then with less than a year to flim
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME ON 21st November 2008!! I'll be turning 22 years old for the occasion. WB, how did you know!! Now, I hope you're planning to stuff as much Tonks/Lupin fluff as you can into the sixth movie other wise I'm going to be mighty unhappy! What's that? Harry/Ginny will be the main relationship to feature in the film? Bollocks to them, Tonks and Lupin are far more important!! Love ~ Shameless Pink Chocolate shipper.
woooooooooo! can't wait to see who the director will be!
woah thats insane. i first read harry potter and the sorceror's stone in 7th grade as assigned reading and this moving is coming out when im graduating college. geez ive been obsessed forever it seems...but i cant wait!!! im sad to see it end though....
Whoa, that was fast. I just hope that in their rush to do the films they don't lose out on the details that make them what they are... Cady makes a very good point that they'll be out of school. I still think that WB are making a mistake by not thinking about the release of Book 7, and should make OotP a November movie...
Wow. They shouldn't really be releasing a date. They should've waited. Steve Kloves is back?! Are you freakin' serious?! Ew. Gross. I can't stand him. They should really pick a director before they release the date. Darn.
HAPPY TONKS/LUPIN DAY TO ME!!
eeeepp!! I'm excited!
AHH IM SO EXCITED!!!!! =] wow thats really not that long after ootp is released...yay! *dances*...
sounds great - but its a bit early?..... whatever - thats the US and UK one - the australia release date /should/ be sometime in January..... knowing WB
wow! Exciting, but 2008!! so far away! lol, oh well i suppose it'll still be good! :S haha! I'll miss hp after bk 7! *mortified*
I am so excited that i've pissed!!!!!wwwwhhhoooooohhhoooooo
Can't wait! But hey, then Tom Felton will be 20 or 21 years old, and Draco's 16/17 years old? Does anybody know if all the "main actors and actresseseseses" (sorry!) will continue? I hope they will, imagine Thomas Sangster or Freddie Highmore play Harry... That would be horrible - no offence to them of course!
Luna_the_Lunatic: Yes, the same actors likely will continue. It would be silly of WB to change actors just because of a few years, and I don't think they themselves have ever planned a cast change. Hel: DONT SAY THAT UNTIL WE KNOW FOR SURE!! YOU'LL JINX IT!! *touchs wood*
N-NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Not Steve Kloves!!! Seriously, though... isn't it a bit too early for an actual date? I mean, come on... I understand they're excited about all the money each film represents, but still...
I hate Steve Kloves. Damn it; Another whole movie of "Stupid Ron" and "Super Hermione." Ughh... the man doesn't know the first thing about accurate or even GOOD characterization.
its a bit early 4 a release date isn't it? Makes me think its not true.
Omg!! Wooo i'm excited that we have the release date, but it's a bit way to early. It's not for another two years! Plus they ain't even finished filming OOTP yet! Who agree's that they'd rather have the release date for book seven other than the HBP movie ? P.S If we're lucky we'll know when the seventh film comes out in about a month or two :P
thats unbelievable!!!!! how can you put that out when we havnt even seen the 5th!!!!! its gonna make the waiting even more painful now hahahahaha
My question is; why don't they shoot two movies in a one year? Look to the Lord of the Rings series; they'd shot three of the movies only in a one year and they released them one by one. Harry Potter's cast is shooting the movie after the movie before releases in the world wide, and this is very wrong. The only good thing is that, while we are wathing the HBP movie, we would be read the 7th book.
OMG Omg ! This is going faaaast ... wellwell .. COOOOUNTDOOOOOOWN !!!! Yet another movie that I am TOO exited for .. *jumps around in the room and calls to everybody I know*
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! woooooooooooooooo eeeeeeeeeeeee! HBP is gonna rock our socks!!!!!! Dan will be 19 playing a 16 year old!!!!! fun tee hee hee! It's my 15th birthday today y'all! so this is an added present! counting down the days! tee hee hee! mwah ha ha ha haaaaaa! love y'all lots like jelly tots and vodka shots x Natasha aka Princess Luna x
That's....interesting. I mean Dan will be 19 when it's released so then he'll be like 20 or 21 when the last one is released (which is younger than what I calculated before). They really do plan ahead for the release date yet for having Gary Oldman back as Sirius, that took quite a bit longer if I recall correctly.
*sigh* I love the movies but I'll never get exited about anything until I know the title of the 7th book. Jo's torturing me! :(
YES!!! lol im getting really excited! can't wait for the films to come out! (i can't believe that they have already released the dates - its SO early!) I hope that the cast stays coz if they dont it'll be wierd without them. :)
WOOHOO!!! It's out on my birthday ..... What an excellent birthday present !!!
THATS MY 21st BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A lot can happen between now and then. They havent even started production on that movie and they have already set a release date?
YAY! *so excited* I'll have to add it to my everything HP countdown... wait... I dont have one... oh well I'll go make one then!
lol...we haven't even seen the 5th one yet!...ah well...something elose to look forward too.
That's the day after I turn 18!! Yay, what a birthday presant! (Even though I've sworn off the movies because they spoil the books, but I know I'll give in!)
So the last movie will probalby be out Summer 2009 or 2010
Steve Kloves... did not read that before... erm. Forgot about that.
awwww! 07-13-07! that used to be one of my locker combinations. even though thats completely besides the point. but im really excited, and thats less than a year away. im definetely keeping a countdown.
I looked it up and that's a friday! :-D
These people are so organized about this stuff they're already planning when to release HBP? But it's only a few days after my friends birthday I'll take her to see it as a present and she'll love me forever ;)
