Harry Potter Mystery: Where They’ll Split Deathly Hallows

Ever since it was announced that Warner Bros. was going to be spitting the final volume of the Harry Potter Book series into two films, Potter fans have all been wondering just where the big cut was going to be made between Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II.

Even More New Harry Potter 6 Posters

It’s summer movie time and so that means studios are cranking out promo materials for their summer films. With the recent announcement that Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince is going to suffer a two-week delay between its initial theatrical release and its IMAX release, Warner Bros. has been working EXTRA hard, trying to fill those theater seats.

Today’s Harry Potter swag-grab-bag includes five new character posters for Half-Blood Prince; each one features different characters, posed in a manner that is supposed to give some clue as to their arch in the film. Check them out:

New TV Spots & Photos For Harry Potter 6

[UPDATE: Now we have hi-res versions of all three Tv spots! Enjoy!]

The last items we reported on for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince were a set of four TV spots from back in May. Since then, the only news we had was not very good news for Harry Potter fans: the IMAX release of the film would be delayed a few weeks because of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’s exclusive IMAX run.

It feels like it was so long ago when this movie was coming close last Fall then out of nowhere the epic delay came to bring it to this summer. Now, you have to wait another two weeks if you wanted to see it on the big big screens.

Harry Potter 6 IMAX Delayed by Transformers 2

If you’re a Harry Potter fan who had to suffer the anguish of Warner Bros. delaying the latest big-screen adventure of your favorite boy wizard, I’m sorry to report that the universe is not done punishing you: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will now have to wait two weeks after its initial theatrical release before it will premiere in IMAX theaters.

Harry and Co. are on standby until Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen finishes its run in IMAX theaters, leaving Warner Bros. potentially screwed when it comes to turning a profit from Half-Blood Prince’s IMAX box office.

Four New TV Spots for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

We are well into the summer movie season now and so far the movies have been hit (Star Trek) or miss (Wolverine, Terminator 4). Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is looking to be in the ‘hit’ column and if the trailer is any indication, it should have no problem doing so.

To keep the hype building, Warner Brothers has released four new TV clips which we have for you below.

Why Harry Potter’s ‘Deathly Hallows’ Is Two Movies

We’ve not even seen the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince yet (although we would have if Warner Bros. hadn’t have delayed it…), and yet there’s already talk about the next and last film in the successful series. If y’all are wondering what is happening with the seventh Harry Potter tale, titled Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, then Screen Rant is here to help.

It was announced over a year ago by WB that Deathly Hallows is going to be split into two separate movies because, as franchise producer David Heyman stated back then:

Character Posters For Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince

Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince is a film that is definitely on a lot of people’s Summer radar, and after seeing the full trailer and the international trailer I can say that I will definitely be checking it out as well.

By now you should know that along with any Harry Potter film release comes a slew of promotional media: pics, vids, and of course, posters. Today we’ve got some promo posters for Half-Blood Prince, a four-piece spread of the film’s dramatis personœ looking all ready for some serious wizard-on-wizard action. Wow, that sounds SO wrong.

New Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince International Trailer

I’ve read all the Harry Potter books except for the last, which I’ve decided to wait on. Despite liking the books, I have never really been a big fan of the Harry Potter film franchise–that is until I got a load of the first trailer for  Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince,  which is looking pretty amazing.

Now Warner Bros. has released the international trailer for The Half-Blood Prince on YouTube.  It’s reported to be the same as the Japanese trailer, but without the Japanese voice-over.  I suppose that makes sense, since the entire universe does not understand Japanese.

Fiennes And Neeson Clash Over Titans

Fiennes And Neeson Clash Over Titans

The Hulk director Louis Leterrier’s remake of Clash of The Titans appears to be snagging a cast that matches the original for acting talent. The 1981 film starred Harry Hamlin (maybe not him) in the lead role but it also had Laurence Oliver, Maggie Smith and err… former Bond girl Ursula Andress as Greek gods. Variety now reports that Ralph Fiennes and his Schlinder’s List co-star Liam Neeson are in negotiations to join Sam Worthington’s Perseus, another former Bond girl, Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen (Bond villain!), and Alexa Davalos in the forthcoming Warner Bros. film.

ShoWest Update

For those not in the know, ShoWest is a convention for theater owners where studios pimp out their movies with the hopes of making a mark regarding their up and coming films. Yesterday, at ShoWest in Las Vegas studios decided to give one another a run for their money. Warner Bros. president Alan Horn showed clips of Terminator Salvation and the new Harry Potter. Both were things we’ve seen before and nothing particularly special.

Six Sweet New Posters For ‘Harry Potter 6′

Ten days ago, a pile of character-centric posters for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince were made available online and they gave us a real good look at how our favorite residents of Hogwarts have aged over the years.

That group of Harry Potter 6 posters featured rather dark-themed and unexciting images of the characters - the opposite of what we have here today for you. Today’s batch includes shots of Harry, Hermione, Snape, Ron, Dumbledore and Draco.

Awesome New Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince Trailer

I am neither a Harry Potter movie hater nor a lover of the films. I watch each one once, and move along with my life. For some reason they just don’t “grab” me. I don’t think they’re at all bad, I guess I’m just not into them.

Having said that, I must say that this latest trailer for Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince looks pretty damned sweet.

Which One Of These Release Dates Will Change?

Some new release dates have been announced by Warner Bros. for some pretty big movies, including Green Lantern, the final Harry Potter film, Sherlock Holmes, Jonah Hex and Clash of the Titans. The dates range from late 2009 all the way to summer 2011, and one of these movies picked a date that will make things interesting as far as a box office battle (if the date sticks).

A Premature End For The Harry Potter Movies?

After the recent news that Disney has pulled out of producing the third Narnia film, we have the surprising word going around that the last installments in the Harry Potter franchise might not make their way onto the big-screen, either (don’t worry - Half-Blood Prince is not included in that statement).

Now before any die hard fans of the series get up in arms it’s not really a cast iron piece of news but rather something that was alluded to by Potter screenwriter Steve Kloves, who said that:

New Harry Potter 6 Trailer: Wacky Comedy & Cool Visuals

A few days ago, Warner Bros. released another full trailer (so did everyone else it seems) for the upcoming-but-delayed Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. This, along with the international trailer released at the end of October are rubbing salt in the wounds of those who couldn’t wait to see the film in theaters this Friday and now have to wait till next summer.

The first full trailer and last month’s both looked very good to me – good enough to almost make me (who’s not a fan) go see it in theaters. I loved the style and tone as well as the more adult-natured themes that we were being presented with.

Recently he sat down with the good folks at Coming Soon and explained the reasons behind pushing the release date from next month all the way back to July of next year:

International Trailer For Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince

In July, Screen Rant posted the first trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. That trailer was more of a teaser and I really dug it personally.  Today, we have for you the brand new trailer, released internationally for your viewing pleasure.

I should probably let it be known that I am not a Harry Potter fan. The running joke amongst my movie-going friends is that I refuse to see them in theater even when we organize group events to do so. To this day, my record holds and I’ve not seen any Harry Potter film on the big screen. It’s not that I dislike the films (I enjoyed them on DVD), it’s just that I haven’t felt motivated ever to see these. There are many reasons why and you could probably find some of them by reading the comments in previous Screen Rant threads on the topic.
