So many spoilers + first :P
Must. Not. Watch. lol I really want to, but I refuse to watch anymore spoilers :) I can wait ten more days! *cheers* Is that really all? After two years! It's time!!!!!
I'm not sure that i'll want to watch this... What do you think??? Should I watch it???
I saw it on HBO and it was AWESOME!!!! I can't wait for it in theatres!
I'm not gonna watch it.As much as it breaks my heart i will not watch it. Maybe the day before the movie comes out? Ughhh.This is TORTURE!
I had a huge grin plastered across my face the entire time I watched this.
IM GONNA WATCH IT NOW AND AGAIN IN CINEMA AND AGAIN IN CINEMA !! :) :)
THAT WAS FANTASTIC!!!! just 10 more days!!!!
OH WOW!! absolutely!!! it was just awesome!! i kept watching the videos. can't wait, can't wait!!!!
I am one hundred percent convinced that this will be the best and my favorite of the films so far. It seems to have everything: danger, romance, death, humor...
If you people really don't want to be spoiled but want to watch this, watch its once and only once. Don't go back to re-watch a specific scene, that way you would forget about everything you saw when the movie is here and its gonna make you watch it again.
well, HP is not something people would forget about, even if watched once every new video clip only makes the fans more excitied.
Omg REALLY EXITED and I'm sad again about Dumbledore dying :(
OMG !!!!!! this was awesome !! the countdown begins..
Sweeet. HBO FTW :-DDD
THAT was TERRIFIC!! I can't wait until the film opens. The first night will be an absolute zoo! So, I think I will go on the 16th or 17th (she says as she wraps chains around her body to lock herself at home on the 15th) LOL
To those of you not sure about watching it: It shows new clips but it's only like.. flashes or a new line here and there. It's not like.. an entire scene like these other previews have been so don't worry. I didn't feel like anything was any more spoiled to me. It did get me WAY more excited though and gave me a lot of hope that this film is going to be AMAZING and HILARIOUS! I'm confident that it's going to be the best film. Michael Gambon seems sooooooo much better too.
Those were really great. Not as many spoilers as I expected, thankfully. This movie looks fantastic! 10 days :D
That was an amazing clip! What made me mad is during the entire 2nd part my family kept calling me to do tedious things and it made everything to delay me from watching it, but I finally finished! lol. CAN THIS MOVIE COME ANY SOONER?!?!
This was so good! I loved all the little snippets. This movie looks like it is going to be hilarious. I loved "Ms. Granger, what do your parents do?""They're dentists""Oh, is that a dangerous profession?".
Ughh...I'm dying! I was hyperventilating the enitre time watching and still am...
I can't bare to stay away from all the clips! I have waited to long for this movie. Ten more DAYS!!!!
YAY!!! CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!
yay so excited =)
well thats the last one im watching now... Its gonna be tough and i miss the release day because im on holiday. Have to wait until the 24th. Anyway, I love the fact that Regulus gets a mention, hopefully they'll have lots of small mentions for characters like him, Stan Shunpike and the like just to keep us happy even if they only tell us what happened to them in the last movie
this is so spoilerific, but so good!! kinda like chocolate cake, lol. Im really looking forward to this, only thing that makes me cringe is Narcissa and her-hair!!!!!
XD "My parents are dentists" I can't believe they included that! Go Emma Watson - that was so funny.
I don't understand why everyone is so upset about Narcissa. We haven't seen the performance yet, and lets face it, few of the characters look like what we expected. Snape is older than in the books, as is McGonnagal, Umbridge was to "pretty", and yet all of them have been amazing, so let's all give Helen a chance, she is great in everything I have seen of her, and she'll do wonders as Narcissa.

That was fantastic.... I've got a really good feeling about this one.... Slughorn is perfect!!! it seems like this one has all the necessary ingredients in the right quantities...the lurking danger, the fact that Harry is being prepared for the final battle, the humour, the relationships... plus its got this raw emotion that makes me shiver!!!! Ni feidir liom fanacht!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!
i love McGonagall.... " Why is it when something happens it is always you three???!!!"
That is soooooooooo aaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwee eeeeeeessssssssoooooooooo ooommmmmmmmmmmeeeeeee!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
omg! i am so excited! It looks SOOO amazing!! :] I cannot wait! i am counting down the days! I think that this will be the best one yet!! :] :]
Can't wait to see the movies!!!
Okay, if these clips are telling us anything they are telling us that actually we have not (yet) seen everything in the trailers.
Ugh. Okay I'm making a promise to myself that i'm not going to watch any more clips or anything that may come out from now until the movie comes out. I want so badly to go to the midnight release, but sadly I'm only 17 so I can't be driving between 1 and 5 in the morning. it really sucks, but next year you'd better believe that I will be going to the midnight release of the Deathly Hallows Part 1. I thought that Jim Broadbent is going to be stupendous as Slughorn. In all the other roles I've seen him in, he's hilarious, so I can't wait. And I think that Eric was right when he said this will be the best film yet. I'm so anxious to see the movie. I just want it to come out now. And I think it's really amazing that we are all still really excited about it even though they made us wait. If anything, the wait has just built up all the more hype for it. :D
they are making it so hard! i promised my self i would not watch any more new clips.. but they keep releasing so many! must. not. watch. must. not. watch. ahhh 10 more days! i can make it
I loved when David Haymen said Alan Rickman was "delicious" :). I cant take it any longer! I need to see this movie!
i said all this and more last night after watching the show but there was no place to post. I didn't want to watch but couldn't help myself. i did tape it and watched it a 2nd time but that's it. no more sneak peeks til midnite on july 14!!!!!!! (yeah, right) THIS ONE LOOKS TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!
Turned it off at about 5 minutes in but it looks fantastic. The cinematography...wow! Anyway, early buzz from movie geek sites suggest that this is hands down the best one yet by a mile!
I must not see this no more clip. I will wait untill the movie comes out. I bought my ticket already. yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
I'm going to try not to watch it, but I will probably end up doing it anyways! Only 10 more days!
Wow! This movie looks fantastic. I can already tell it's going to be different to all the rest. Did you guys hear the rock music playing in the quidditch scene. I'm glad the Yates has realized that this story is about teenagers, and sometimes making it too dark is not the way to go. The look of the film is beautiful; it seemed like every shot was crafty and artistic. The yellowish color wash of the film fits very well. That is what I felt Mike Newell lacked in his directing of GOF: a distinct style, and an untrained eye for detail. Every other film has had a signature that I can easily point out, and David Yates is definitely at the top. I am really excited for this movie, and by the look of all these clips, there is no doubt it will be a candidate in the Oscars. It might not get nominated for Best Picture, but probably for Art Design, Special Effects, Cinematography, and Best Original Score.
This is awesome! I love the part about the Ron/Lavender kissing scene and Dan yelling, "CUT!" Absolutely hilarious! I can't wait to see this movie! Omg!! I can't wait to see this movie!! Lmao @ Ron sitting in between Harry and Ginny when they're trying to get close. lol. And LOVE the part when Cormac MacLaggen is checking out Hermione and when he catches the fly with his hand. It's perfect! Just like the book. He's so cocky! And Freddie Stroma is a HOTTIE! Quidditch looks amazing!!!
I LOVE SNAPE. He IS the most delicious Character. Alan Rickman adds such a sexiness to the Character. Even the simplest hand gesture speaks volumes.
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! TOTALLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!! I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! ITS GOING BE THE BEST ONE YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you have GOTTT to be kidding me!!! another "exclusive"??????????? see here for more www.hetalcb.dragonado pters.com
absolutely LOVED it!!!!!!!!!!!! brilliant stuff! www.hetalcb.dra gonadopters.com
i'm gonna watch this after i've re-watched movie 1-5 and re-read book 6. 10 days left! :D
I wasn't gonna watch it. I was like "pppftt, for teasers" But I did, cause how can I not? AND HOLY CRAP THAT WAS AWESOME. Alan Rickman totally stood how though. "Take out... your wand", I mean come on. How Snape is that? By far the best actor in this cast.
