Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

[drudo182]

The first image from the film has been released even though it doesn't come out until November 21, 2008.

http://www.cinemablend.com/images/reviews/2271/_11975939264193.jpg

Not too exciting but it's something. This was my favorite book so I hope they do a good job with it. I love when the films come out during the November/December months as well. Just a good fit for them I think.

[gloriousmuse]

Daniel looks hot, too bad I think he's gay.


Anyways, I hear that their debating on whether or not to put in Scrimgeour. Which is a little upsetting, especially for the 7th film/book.

I hope they don't fuck this one up. They brought back the writer from 1-4, and he always turns things around. The writer for movie 5 knew what was important, and was spot on with everything.

[gloriousmuse]

Here's a sneak peek video as well:

http://video.the-leaky-cauldron.org/video/935#share

[drudo182]

yeah, I saw that video. it was okay.

i dont think radcliffe is gay either, but you never know i guess... ha.

[fantasma]

Emma Watson's accent is attractive. I really hope to see the Dumbledore Death scene played out.

I'm almost certain that I have read that he is already confirmed, actor and all.

[carsonxgrave]

Just curious as to when this is coming out?

[ThexQuietxCull]

Just curious as to when this is coming out?

start from release of last HP film, add 1 1/2 years

[carsonxgrave]

start from release of last HP film, add 1 1/2 years

Still got some time, lol.

[billyboatkid]

The Sixth and Seventh films better make up for the horendous let down the fift one was, or I'm gonna be so pissed.

[AshesAshes]

Just curious as to when this is coming out?

November 21, 2008. ....

[chokeychicken]

man i love the 7th book.

[gloriousmuse]

i cant wait to see Dumbledore die, because after book 7 i kinda hated him.

[ghostyouare]

do you guys think theyll play up the whole issue of that character being gay in the movies, like hint at it at all?

[TJ Wells]

wow, neville really grew up. he needs a shave.

and personally, ootp was my second favorite film after azkaban.

And Daniel Radcliffe rocked in Extras.

[firewater]

pisses me off they're keeping that fugly Ginny...lol but This is my favorite book, and hopefully my favorite HP movie. I heard there's going be alot more comedy in it.

[gloriousmuse]

i don't think so, because like JK said it's not relevant to the story.

[drudo182]

Order of the Phoenix was great, I thought.

It's my second favorite after Azkaban.

[takingbackrufio]

i don't think so, because like JK said it's not relevant to the story.
Yeah, people who have never read the books tend to look over that minor tidbit.

[sdbrown]

Holy crap, Draco looks so old. He looks good though. :-D (that was sort of pedo of me)

I haven't seen the movies since #2 but this one looks pretty good.

[Broken Parachute]

Emma's such a cutie. I love it.

[Drew Beringer]

I hope they don't fuck this up.

[vandalsandquinn]

I'm exciteddddd

Emma's such a cutie. I love it.
I'm cuter.

[Broken Parachute]

Brigid, we've been over this.

[vandalsandquinn]

Brigid, we've been over this.
I'm a winner!

[secretemily]

Every time I see him it reminds me of this:

hahaha I love Extras.

[adam289]

this movie should be awesome. it was my favourite book of the series.

[Until The Bombs]

Wish it was next November all ready. At least I get OOTP on DVD for Christmas.

Hahahahahahahahaha. Fuck, this was funny, aspecially the second video.

[secretemily]

Hahahahahahahahaha. Fuck, this was funny, aspecially the second video.

haha the motion was brilliant.

[drudo182]

Yeah, the part with the condom is so funny.

[pilot_light_out]

I can't wait to see the inferi come out of the lake. They better make that look cool. And when voldemort was a little teenage asshole. Should be entertaining.

Emma Watson. Shwing.

[erinclifford]

Emma Watson's accent is attractive. I really hope to see the Dumbledore Death scene played out.

I'm probably going to cry when Dumbledore dies.
I probably will anyways, because every time I watch the GOF I cry.. Poor Cedric.

I hope the movies get better.
I'll still see them at midnight and at least 4 more times in the theaters, but still...
I need a life.

[DaveFeelsRight]

i want this to fucking come out already, even though Ootp sucked.

[Until The Bombs]

i want this to fucking come out already, even though Ootp sucked.

You take that back OOTP did not suck.

[Anton Djamoos]

The success of this movie lies in the execution of Sectumsempra for me. It's the one thing I'm most looking forward to.

[DaveFeelsRight]

The success of this movie lies in the execution of Sectumsempra for me. It's the one thing I'm most looking forward to.it's gonna be toned down alooooooot.

dude. I know. no way harry falls for that girl.

[drudo182]

Sweet fake poster.

Dammit. Dammit. Dammit.

i know, the order was not done well at all, if you ask me. it had one good scene in it really, and it was too.... BRITISH. all the crappy oboes and shit.

[billyboatkid]

i know, the order was not done well at all, if you ask me. it had one good scene in it really, and it was too.... BRITISH. all the crappy oboes and shit.

YA!! For sure it was just ridiculous, they have all been a little off but on the fifth they just went way to overboard... keep to the story and progression don't change it up.

[drudo182]

Whatev.

The 5th movie was my second favorite film. I loved the style and they made a really good film from a huge book.

I liked the style too, but honestly it was a horrible movie, all the extra decrees, the only part I actually enjoyed was the end with the room and the fight scene..

[Adeniz19]

i still havent seen the latest movie. the goblet of fire disappointed me so much that i gave up on the movie franchise.

[billyboatkid]

If thats the case don't even bother with 5 you'll be so disgusted you'll want to break shit! haha seriously tho be careful

[MADSTA]

If they cut Malfoy out like the last movie, heads will roll.

[drudo182]

I liked Goblet of Fire as well. Azkaban is the best though. Cuaron is amazing.

[Jessooker]

I wish Guillermo del Toro would direct one.

[drudo182]

That guy still hasn't won me over with anything.

[Adeniz19]

ya, azkaban is easily the best. loved the cinematography in it.

[stayillogical]

Daniel looks hot, too bad I think he's gay.


Actually, I remember in an interview him talking about his huge crush on the lead vocalist of The Distillers. Weird, right.

[Until The Bombs]

That guy still hasn't won me over with anything.

I assume you've seen it, but Pan's was pretty sweet. At least visually.

[gravexdigger]

im so excited.
half-blood prince was definitely one of my top three favorite books from the series.
but, i miss the director from movies 1 and 2.
after that, all the other movies all went to pot.
:/
anywho, continue the thread.

[Until The Bombs]

I haven't read the books in a while, but if I remember correctly, what peeved me the most about the 5th movie was that the younger Malfoy was all but left out, which makes no sense considering how important he is the 6th book.

[stayillogical]

The only movie I liked was the 5th one. The 3rd was a huge letdown for me since it's my favorite book. Sure it was good from a cinematic standpoint, but they butchered the story line, IMO. The 5th one is the only one where they nailed it.

The director, Chris Columbus, suited the feel of the first two movies perfectly. I don't think he could have handled the darker tones in the later books/movies as well though.

[gravexdigger]

true.
i just miss all the small details of his movies, you know?

Seriously? I thought they butchered the 5th one. It seemed like they adapted it from cliff notes. It was a great movie on it's own, but a bad adaptation.

[stayillogical]

Seriously? I thought they butchered the 5th one. It seemed like they adapted it from cliff notes. It was a great movie on it's own, but a bad adaptation.

Why? Every essential part of the plot was included. What was left out that you think shouldn't have been cut?

[drudo182]

I think it was well adapted myself. I thought book five was one of the weaker novels. For a movie, it everything that was necessary to continue the story was included and you got a complete film.

[Jessooker]

Why? Every essential part of the plot was included. What was left out that you think shouldn't have been cut?

To me everything felt so rushed and choppy. But that's just me. I just think that they could of added little things that were in the book since it was the shortest movie made. I dont know, maybe I need to watch it again or something.
I guess I see it as more underdeveloped than the other movies when it comes to the adaptation of it.

[SockMonkeyRiot]

They better put Scrimgeour in there, if not they'll lose the best line of the book.

[Edo_Speedo]

I don't care much about this movie...

But the beginning of the next movie is going to be outrageous. Just reading the book gave me the chills once they left Harry's house. Not going into more detail on what happened but that whole time is crazy.

Really, however he ends this movie is going to have to lead into the next one. He did an okay job with the last movie, didn't blow me out of the water but meh. He needs to add a really creepy tone to this next movie in order to really show the 7th movie the way it was read. I don't think this movie has a great point to start off from, after that last one, but it should be able to pick up in the middle.

I remember reading a long time ago that the director was planning on having the tone of this movie to be a bit lighter (as opposed to the creepy tone you mentioned). His reasoning was that this is Harry's last year at Hogwarts before all the crazy shit (my phrasing) starts to happen, so it's the last chance for them to have a good time. Personally, I'd prefer a darker tone.

[gloriousmuse]

what, "dumbledore's man through and through"?

[Edo_Speedo]

The whole thing with Scrimgeour is probably my favorite thing about the book. My favorite chapter is probably when he visits the Weasleys. Their talk in the garden is great.

[takingbackrufio]

what, "dumbledore's man through and through"?
I don't see what else could be.

And I must disagree with you on your "loss of all respect" for Dumbledore comment; clearly you misinterpreted the characterization of him in that novel, or didn't take the proper meaning from JKR's portrayal of his past. Or, as a reader, do you lack the capability for forgiveness? It seems so. He is greatly flawed, but his repentance and atonement for his wrongs are what make him such an admirable leader and an inspiration to those around him.

[SockMonkeyRiot]

what, "dumbledore's man through and through"?

yessir


and I agree about Dumbledore, I like how the 7th book humanized him

[stupidtyonparad]

i know im missing the boat here
but i just saw the 5th movie last night for the first time



and im gonna say it was a sick movie
for such big books, the montages in the movie helped it a lot
and i think the girl who plays tonks is banginnnnnnnn
and the girl who plays luna is way cute too

New images. Not much but it's something. I know thats not the actual poster but it looks so cheap, the magazine shouldn't have bothered.

[drudo182]

Ha, yah that would be a terrible poster.

[bummm]

Mmm, Rupert.

[lauren<3s music]

i LOVE harry potter. this made my day :)

[googirl8907]

I can't wait for this movie. I really hope they don't make this as choppy as the last one was.

[disco.tetris]

It looks good. I hope Daniel acts better in this one though.


Rupert Grint. Wow, he just got so much cuter.

[MADSTA]

Rupert was always cute.

And I am soooo excited for this movie. And also very happy they decided to cut the seventh into two.

[gloriousmuse]

Rupert is my favorite ginger:inlove:...Well besides Prince Harry

[angelusdomini]

I set that new high-res (http://mugglenet.com/viewer/?image_location=/hbphighres.jpg) movie still as my desktop background.

Looks awesome.

[stayillogical]

I freakin love Mugglenet.com I used to check that every day, not so much anymore, but it still rulez.

Pft, The Leaky Cauldron >>>>>>> Mugglenet ;-)

[stayillogical]

Pft, The Leaky Cauldron >>>>>>> Mugglenet ;-)

Nope. I've always preferred Mugglenet. The layout, the way everything is organized, the features, the cute creator (lolz), all of it.

[local superhero]

i hope to pull off a scheme again for this movie...... myself and 5 friends saw the last movie for free by pulling together a prank-of-sorts and making the theater believe one of my friends was the actor who played Oliver Wood..... we even pulled off a meet-and-greet with the employees after the movie, and some of them brought their books for him to sign LOL... i had a hard time keeping a straight face as he faked a Scottish accent

[_falloutgirl]

the high-res version looks super.

and lol are we talking about emerson? FTW.

[disco.tetris]

I don't know if this was posted and I'm too lazy to check and it's probably pretty old (considering it was added in January) but I still wanted to post it:

SPOILER WARNING.
dBcWtMgKMYE&feature=related

[heyzombiehitler]

You take that back OOTP did not suck.

I beg to differ. I liked the first four but order of the phoenix was just dull. Like second most boring movie of last year.




Pirates 3 was the first.

[Until The Bombs]

I beg to differ. I liked the first four but order of the phoenix was just dull. Like second most boring movie of last year.




Pirates 3 was the first.

Can't agree. I worked at a theatre over the summer and watched the movie at least 6 times in full not to mention larger parts of it numerous times a day for about a month. Hardly the best Potter movie, but it did not suck as the person I was responding to said.

[TK]

I think they're going to screw up this movie for some reason...which I really hope they do not.

[needles & pins]

OotP was my favorite book and I was disappointed with the movie, especially the MoM battle scene (or lack thereof, actually). I loved the tone and look of PoA - I thought it was well done overall. It's probably my second favorite book and I was a lot happier with that adaptation.

HBP is my least favorite book, so I don't really have high expectations for the movie. Anything will probably please me movie wise just because I'm definitely not as invested in this one as I have been in the past.

[disco.tetris]

OotP was an absolutely crap movie. It was choppy and I hardly remember it at all. It was really disappointing with how much they just cut off.

I hope the HBP movie will be more like the book and complete. Oh and I pray that DR and EW act better.

[angelusdomini]

OotP just had a completely look and feel to it than any of the other movies. The camera angles were bad, the lighting was weird, and Emma Watson's acting seemed to get even worse than before.

I still liked the movie overall tho, it was just... different.

[drudo182]

I loved the cinematography in OOTP.

[stupidtyonparad]

order of the pheonix had luna though
so its the best.

[gloriousmuse]

I loved Luna. She was everything that I'd imagined her to be. Can't wait to see her in the 7th film though.

[googirl8907]

Luna didn't live up to my imagination. For some reason I imagined her a little plumper and weirder.

[drudo182]

I pictured her like she was.

[disco.tetris]

Video didn't work :\
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBcWtMgKMYE

[disco.tetris]

Luna was good. She's got that spaced out, dreamy look and was good. I don't like Ginny though.

[SAOSIN7years]

I'm just glad they're cutting up Deathly Hallows into two parts. If it was one movie, it would have either a) been five hours long (which I personally wouldn't mind but itd suck when I'd have to pee) or b) worse than Order of the Phoenix.

Leaving the theatre after the midnight showing for OOTP was easily the most dissapointing experience of 2007.

In thread related news- this better not be some chipper rendition. Rowling wrote this to be a dark book to transition to the end- if the director screws this one up (ESPECIALLY Sectumsempra) I'm ordering a hit.

I was impressed when I left the midnight showing and sad too because I had a catch a plane in 1 1/2 later. So I felt rushed haha

But I'm reeeeally looking forward to the Sectumsempra scene. When I read that part I started worrying whether or not it would be done correctly or done at all because of the blood. But then again, the 4th movie was pretty bloody when Wormtail resurrected Voldemort.

[gloriousmuse]

This image alone made me really excited for this film:

I hope they make this a really, really dark movie.

[WFUJerseyJon]

That's awesome, I'm stoked. But it should have been 2 movies per book starting with 4, not 7.

[Adeniz19]

i didn't watch order of the phoenix just because goblet of fire pissed me off so much but i might give this movie a shot

[Adeniz19]

That's awesome, I'm stoked. But it should have been 2 movies per book starting with 4, not 7.ehhh i think they could of kept them to one movie, they just needed to make them a bit longer. i understand that they are kid movies and shouldnt be 3 hours long but its needed for these.

[symbiote28]

I freakin love Mugglenet.com I used to check that every day, not so much anymore, but it still rulez.
yeah .. me too just about when a movie is getting closer ..

[WFUJerseyJon]

ehhh i think they could of kept them to one movie, they just needed to make them a bit longer. i understand that they are kid movies and shouldnt be 3 hours long but its needed for these.

Eh, I guess, but too long movies wouldn't do it for me. They were originally thinking of doing 2 per starting with Goblet but Cuaron talked them out of it. Hands down he is my least favorite person to come into contact with the franchise. He ruined 3 for me (my favorite book too) and I always felt his ego was just too big for this project.

[Adeniz19]

i enjoyed 3. it might not of followed the book exactly but at least the cinematography for it was pretty awesome and the story didnt seem to be jumbled.

[gloriousmuse]

I really loved 3 as well. I used to be a little upset over the lack of Marauder's but in the end...did it really matter? Not really.

[drudo182]

Azkaban is still my favorite movie.

[stayillogical]

I really loved 3 as well. I used to be a little upset over the lack of Marauder's but in the end...did it really matter? Not really.

It did matter and I am still upset by this. Screw Cuaron. You can squeeze in a five minute scene with Harry fighting a stupid book but can't explain an integral part of the series? Azkaban will always be my least favorite movie, and it's too bad because it's my favorite of the books.

I felt this way with a lot of GoF. They had Harry being chased by a dragon for half the movie and left out a lot of important storyline between the characters and made it really hard to follow if you have never read the book IMO.

[SanePsychotic]

In terms of movies I like the 3rd one the best. True, there are some parts that should have been put in, but I believe that it had all the important parts while later movies cut so much out. Although the first follows the book the best.

[Brandon Allin]

I would rank the movies to date as follows:

Prisoner of Azkaban
Philosopher's Stone
Goblet of Fire
Order of the Phoenix
Chamber of Secrets

[stayillogical]

Order of the Phoenix was the best for me.

[WFUJerseyJon]

Exxxxxactly. Cuaron's ego ruined Prisoner of Azkaban. They tried to go with a director with a lot of buzz instead of one who would be dedicated to the books. Don't get me wrong there's plenty of times when changing what's in the books works well for the film (see: The Firm) but in a series like this where you have to placate to the fans it's a horrible mistake.

[Until The Bombs]

I felt this way with a lot of GoF. They had Harry being chased by a dragon for half the movie and left out a lot of important storyline between the characters and made it really hard to follow if you have never read the book IMO.

I had read the books at that point. I had no idea what was going on.

I hope they don't fuck this up.

they haven't with any movie yet

[xgloryxfadesx27]

So the trailer for this will be before TDK? I hope.

[annaboun]

POA is my favorite movie, I was really disappointed with OOTP, but I've been waiting ages for the fucking HBP trailer.
I really hopes it comes out with dark knight, witch is actually the only reason, other than Heath Ledger's last performance, that I'm watching that movie.

Isn't it?

watchmen, the new terminator and body of lies are whats attached with TDK. I guess it would be attached with star wars:clone wars seeing as it's their next big feature.

Isn't it?

No, there's another movie that he did after TDK. TDK is one of this last performances, but not the final one. It's probably his last really big one though.

[Rabe]

Isn't it?
its his last complete performance, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is his last performance. he died before it was finished filming, but his parts are still going to be included.

[SanePsychotic]

I want a HP trailer in TDK previews, as that's the only movie this summer I'm actually going to see anytime soon.

Does anyone know the release date for HBP? I'd imagine it's in post-production right now, so sometime fairly soon depending on how many effects they used.

November 21 and it's going to be in IMAX 3D again.

The Leaky Cauldron is saying that the teaser might be shown in front of the new Mummy film.

i seriously thought the new mummy film was going to be one of those make fun of movies films like the super hero movie or the spartans one until the end when it said "the mummy" aka..it looks awful

and to those pics, luna still looks gorgeously weird, god i love her. and it looks like ginny might be getting a little cuter? i pray..

NO!!!!!!! hahaa

in the movies:

in the books:
ginny-hermione-luna

so they got it way backwards

NO!!!!!!! hahaa

I agree with the books, but I don't think that Luna's prettier than Hermione. Maybe cuter than a younger Hermione, but with her as of now, no way. The actress does a stellar job with it though.

[looksthatkillbn]

i'm just coming in here to defend ginny's honor and say she's hot

Oh goodness, Emma Watson is so cute.

Daniel, 18, said: "There is a fair amount of sexual energy and there are some drug parallels. We have a couple of what David Yates, the director calls our 'Trainspotting moments'.


"There's a great balance. The light parts are lighter than before, and the dark parts are extremely dark."

Nope, you are false.

This is the truth.

But in all honesty, no one in these movies are total knockouts or anything.

[disco.tetris]

its his last complete performance, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is his last performance. he died before it was finished filming, but his parts are still going to be included.

Aah, I did not know that. But then how will his part be complete?

it won't. they'll just be editing the film in a way to where it is still coherent without the remainder of his scenes

[disco.tetris]

it won't. they'll just be editing the film in a way to where it is still coherent without the remainder of his scenes

Hmm, that sucks though, that he couldn't finish his role.

[concernedparent]

The Harry Potter movies fucking pale in comparison to the movies.

Except the most recent movie, that was the only one that stood its ground. I mean, it still wasn't nearly as good, but it was by far the best of the movies.

I don't think that can be true, its a very important moment in the story. Thats when Harry decides he can't come back till Voldy's dead. And its Dumbledore's FUNERAL! Come on.

I reallly truly hope that link is wrong :-(
but then again, in PoA they did cut out all of the marauder's back story...

[symbiote28]

there's no way dumbledore's funeral will be cut .. that'd be a disgrace!

[disco.tetris]

I reallly truly hope that link is wrong :-(

Cutting that still isn't as bad as cutting out D's funeral. Fans would reject the movie.

that's FUCKED UP. i hope that's not the case.

who's directing this one? is it the same guy who did Order Of the Phoenix? i liked that one a lot.

[gloriousmuse]

They better not cut Dumbledore's funeral. I really dislike the screenwriter who has written 5 of the Potter films. I much prefer the one who did OotP. For such a big book, he adapted it so well. He managed to leave in all the important information, and left out the insignificant (ahem, did anyone really like Hagrid's chapter about finding Grawp or Grawp in general? No. That was a mistake on Jo's part.)

[HelpMeSleep]

i agree, i thought they did a great job deciding which parts to cut and which to keep for the last movie, and i think it even ended up being the shortest one.

[MADSTA]

If that is true, I might cry. Just a little bit.

[drudo182]

If what I read is true, I will be pretty disappointed.

[chris.vee09]

i can't wait.

I plan on going to the midnight viewing of this movie.

If they do cut it out, I'm going to be majorly pissed.

gahhhhh we need a trailer

[gloriousmuse]

The teaser is only 15 seconds and in front of TDK!!!!M-(

I read that it's only the title with a voice over by Dumbledore.

[FayeQC]

I really have to see this trailer!

[SanePsychotic]

Can't wait to see this trailer. I'm going to TDK a week from this Thursday so I am probably going to freak out when I see this clip.

Sounds like "Once again, I must ask too much of you Harry."

Yeah, that's what it sounds like. Too bad it's kind of difficult to make out.

[zubinmoosa]

That sucks. Lame excuse for a trailer.

And I don't like the idea of "select parts" in 3D. They did that with Superman Returns, and it was like "PLEASE PUT ON YOUR GLASSES NOW" It ruined the flow of the movie. Either put everything in 3D or nothing.

There will be a better trailer that's for sure. The only thing that is not certain is when it will be released. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if WB didn't release it like a month before the movie is released. :-/

People are suckers for 3-D. As I wear glasses and find putting 3D glasses over top of them terribly uncomfortable, I've never understood it.

Yes. I'd guess there will be either between two to four trailers before the film is released.

yes , of course. this trailer is justl ike tdk one from last year, symbol. and talk. i odnt think it sucks because a lot of people who dont read the books and only go to see the movies will be like what does that mean dumbledoreeee? and then theyll figure it out after the mooooooviiiiiee

The whole point of a teaser is just to create awareness. The release is still so far enough off that most of the CGI probably isn't even finished yet. Would it be nice to actually see something? Yes, but what did anyone expect when they heard it was only 15 seconds long?

Exactly. This doesn't qualify as a teaser by any standard. They could've ATLEAST previewed a tiny clip of a scene or two.

How can you even defend the "teaser"? I get what you're saying about not finishing the movie, but they could have done up a clip FOR the teaser or something. Anything would have been better than that.

It can be summed up as this, if that's all they gave us, it's for good reason.

[drudo182]

Well, as annoying as that teaser might have been, people still started clapping for it when it finished so it seems to have gotten people excited.

If anything, it's just a reminder that the movie is coming.

I completely understanding wanting more. I won't rehash over the reasons why I think everyone shouldn't care. I as however suprised that everyone expected more. As soon as I read it was 15 seconds long, my expectations were immediately lowered exponentially.
