mugglenet needs to change their count-down thingy


Posted by harry_potterdude May 30th 2007

awwww...... I'm not complaining its just, I had it marked down on my calander, and now i have to change it. (I'm very lazy, thats why im sad)


Posted by HarryPotterFreakers May 30th 2007

Mugglenet needs to update their countdown! I told some people about the date change, but none of them even beleived it. They thought it was just another rumor, but i told them that if Mugglenet beleives it, then I beleive it! (and WB did confirm it)

Posted by hpwiz812 May 30th 2007

sweetness yah boi! im so excited!


Posted by fadnin2beautlite May 30th 2007

omg!! i'm totally freaking out.this is so amazing.I can't wait!! now the book and the movie are exactly 10 days apart.thats kind of a bummer that we have to wait longer in between but omgggggggg.thank you WB I love you! =]


Posted by cathyrh May 30th 2007

this is so freakin' unfair! the us always gets everything first!! even though there are other countries with the 11th as the premiere, but if anyone deserved to have it on the 11th or earlier it should be the uk (i'm not british nor living in the uk!). this is some of the reasons i don't like america. why couldn't it be taiwan that had the headlines, cos they also have it the 11th...


Posted by RoNSGirL777 May 30th 2007

OMGGGGGG this is so awesome ♥ i am such a HP fan 2 days makes such a deffrence im watchin it da day it cums out luv u


Posted by CassandraM May 30th 2007

I'm guessing that WB didn't want to release on a Friday the 13th. Superstition, or maybe just too witchy for them. Or maybe Laura Mallory got to them...


Posted by AccioSeverus May 30th 2007

mm. well. that's nice. now i can't see it with my best friend...i could have waited two days. yay, i guess.


Posted by cathyrh May 30th 2007

It's so selfish to start sobbing when you get it two day earlier! Why can't you just be happy that you are so privileged to get it first!! It's soooo freaking UNFAIR!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by RoNSGirL777 May 30th 2007

Posted by NoOneWouldListen May 30th 2007

MuggleNet needs to update their OotP countdown to reflect this change. Leaky has already changed their countdown to be two days ahead.

Posted by BrandonJPotter May 30th 2007

like, thats cool.. am i the only one disappointed? I wanted to see this on a friday... i mean, i'm glad its out early, but...


Posted by xoxDreamerGirlxox May 30th 2007

This has probably been asked before....but does this mean Canada's release date is two days earlier as well? I REALLY hope so!!


Posted by mrsweasley5 May 30th 2007

My son saw a commercial for the movie that still lists the date for the 13th. If this is true why haven't they fixed this?


Posted by sarahmay May 31st 2007

Yay! This means I can at least make the movie opening even if I have to miss (cries in terrible agony) the midnight release of the final book... It's okay though...I'm off saving the world one Tanzanian orphan at a time...you can miss the book release for that... WAHHH!!!!!


Posted by hermione_pretty May 31st 2007

hey...is it releasing on the 11th only 4 the US??.....its so mean....i hope not.. im 4m India....n i want it 2 release early here as well!!!!!.............:)


Posted by HarryEragon1fan May 31st 2007

U.S.A.......all the way....Okay know that i've got that out of my system (iv been holding it in for a long time my computer wouldnt let me sign in) im extremly happy, two less the days i gotta wait. this summer im going to live in the theater all the great movies thats comin out..........


Posted by darkhairhermy May 31st 2007

Nuh-uh. No way. This can't be true!!!!!!!!!!! :dances with happiness:


Posted by Halfbloodprincess89 May 31st 2007

W-w--wh-what?! I-I mean...w-wh-wh-why?!? Why?! Why?! Why?! Wh--wait...what do I care why? 2 days earlier, baby! YYYEEEESSS!! *does celebratory dance* I was ticked that UK got it before us and was seriously considering flying over there...but now, I don't have to! *dance*


Posted by HPfreak2010 May 31st 2007

NOOOOOO!!! This is horrible!! I'm on a mission trip in the middle of no where and i was gonna be back in time to see the opening night!! I'm happy for those of you who can see it but.....*sob* .... THIS SUCKS FOR ME!!!!!! : (


Posted by londynxbaybe May 31st 2007

erm..yay? I'm happy that i can see it 2 days earlier, but still, this complicates things. I figure that they're doing the same thing that they did for Pirates of the Caribbean. You know, like the early 8pm showings the night before it officially came out?


Posted by hedwig101 May 31st 2007

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaa!!!!!!! CANNOT WAIT!


Posted by rukia_san May 31st 2007

what i don't understand is how i'm just now hearing about this amazing news. i'm so behind the times!


Posted by NitwitBlubberOddmentTweak214 May 31st 2007

What the fire-breathing dragon?!?! I've been writing July 13th all over my stuff! ARGH! *slaps herself*


Posted by miss_KATIE_JANE May 31st 2007

YAY


Posted by aeh2 May 31st 2007

I am sooooooooooo excited, this is gonna be AMAZING!!! Oh, and for all the people from other countries who are complaining about this CRY ME A RIVER!!!!!!! BOO HOO HOO, GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are just as surprised as everyone else. It isnt our fault. So like I said GET OVER IT and if you dont...then go KICK ROCKS, DEUCES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !


Posted by danfan May 31st 2007

I read in the Indianapolis Star that the movie is being released early because of Friday the 13th being unlucky. i wouldn't want want to take any chances with a film, either.


Posted by slytherinprincess922 May 31st 2007

i'm actually not happy about it because I have to go to college at that time and I was planning on coming home to see it with my friends but now i cant since its the middle of the week and I have a class the next morning. :(


Posted by mandybelle May 31st 2007

ahem, i think the countdown needs a tad of an edit. :]


Posted by honeydukes0209 May 31st 2007

lol, awesome! i'm a couple days late from the excitement, but....:p yeah, i'd also say that the countdown clock should be edited! haha~ can't wait for the movie!


Posted by light_and_dark94 Jun 1st 2007

;-; small complaint....movie was going to come out on my b-day.>< I was so looking forward to it! Oh well...bright side being it is earlier.:)


Posted by emaloo Jun 1st 2007

i just saw a commercial for it on tv and it still said july 13th, even though its been a few days after the change


Posted by apwbd_fan Jun 1st 2007

Posted by Hogwarts_train Jun 1st 2007

Yay thats awesome now it comes out on my b-day!!


Posted by Willowrose Jun 1st 2007

Works for me! I don't work on Weds. ;)


Posted by The_Phantom_Pianist Jun 1st 2007

Poo. I'm going to be in some backwards-town with no movie theatre in North Carolina on vacation. We were coming back on the 12th to make it for opening night. And I thought it was cool having it come out on Friday the 13th. Whatever. I'll still be able to see it then I suppose.


Posted by cathyrh Jun 2nd 2007

jeez...americans are all so superstitious...lol!
