Hi to everyone! In Spain less than a week left to have the dvd or the blu-ray version! I have been told that the clip of Harry potter and the deathly hallows:part 1, is on the blu-ray version, not in the dvd version :( So, lets see if someone uploads the clip (of HP DH:PART 1)on youtube.

just finished watching it on DVD :D They released it today here in Norway as well. I still have no idea why we got it before the uk and the us. Not that Im complaining XD Once again it was brilliant, though while watching it, I do miss some of the colours from the previous films.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-18 17:07:28

Im in Aus and I got mine three days cos I preordered it haha yay!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-18 17:33:37

Haha! sucks to not be Australian!!!1!!11!!!!!RO TFLMAO!!LOL!IDK

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-18 18:05:24

Im pretty sure that all nonbritish nor american bluray version of HBP wont feature the Deathly Hallow first look, its not been announced here in France though its a very valuable feature. I think the earlier release than those of the 8th of December had to be printed before those scenes were actually produced. But Ill jump on my chair if any french or Australian or Belgium or Netherlands inhabitant possessor of the BluRay could tell me the opposite...

I JUST GOT MY COPY IN NEW ZEALAND YESTERDAY! WOOT!!! ITS A COVER THAT CHANGES PICTURE FROM HARRY/DUMBLEDORE TO DRACO/SNAPE WHEN YOU MOVE IT AROUND!

And all those videos of cast members learning about different things around the set was really interesting :) Much better special features than the previous DVD

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-19 17:04:31

Hope WB will release it on the net in high Quality after the 8th, to be fair with Potter fans all over the World... (GMH lol)

Australian residents: I saw this in the newspaper on the weekend that Coles has a sale when you spend $100 or more instore you can purchase Harry Potter for $5. Woolworths has a similar deal when you spend $80 you get Harry Potter for $10. Im not sure if this is australia wide but these advertisments were for Sydney, NSW

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-20 00:54:02

I got it a week an a half ago. Winner. My friend works in a DVD shop here in australia. But i saw it on sale like three days ago here...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-20 08:45:11

I got it on tuesday, and I live in Norway. I wonder why people in th UK and US have to wait for 3 weeks when the rest of the world get it on this time...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-21 14:39:04

Its released in Indonesia as well

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-21 21:18:09

Got the DVD but there was no Deathly Hallows preview. I think its only on Blue Ray. How dperessing. :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-21 21:22:30

Oh and I cant believe we got the DVD so much earlier. We usually get it three weeks after the US and UK. :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-11-22 08:12:48

December 4, 2008 - J.K. Rowling's The Tales of Beedle the Bard is released in the United States and United Kingdom. To the dismay of some Potter fans, many bookstores did not hold midnight release parties like they did for other books in the Potter series.

So many fans visit King’s Cross station to take pictures of platforms 9 and 10 that the station management erected a sign that says “Platform 9 ¾” which, in the Potter books, is invisible to Muggles but acts as a gateway for witches and wizards.
