New Harry Potter trailer!

[Imran Siddiqui]

Woohoo!

This is for Prisoner of Azkaban, to be released on June 4, 2004. I found it on www.harrypotter.com (on the right side).

Looks VERY interesting. Oldman looks the part of Black. Snape (actually a Boggart) in drag is funny as Hell, and my have Draco, Harry, Ron, and Hermione aged. That Dementor hand is spooky looking as well.

June the 4 !!!!
oh brother...
So for the next few month were are going to be bombarded with ads for fluffenball or whatever the (PC) game is called, then when that will finally be over, we'll get the next wave with movie ads coming in... * sigh *

[Imran Siddiqui]

It's all about the marketing, alva .

[BeBMan]

There are trailers for books now

Was the second film as awful as the first one?

[chequita guevara]

Nope.

They really need to crank out these movies faster. After all, these kids will be adults soon.

[Japher]

I think they are doing the movies on the proper time span. There is a book year between each book and about a year between each movie so that the kids age about a year between each one. By the time their finish aren't the kids suppose to be 16-17 anyway?

This only works if they are filming the movies every year. This movie is going to be released a year and a half after the last one. Hopefully they are starting filming soon for GoF. Then again, I hear that might be a two parter (would that mean OotP will be a 2 parter as well?). The age stuff has a potential to get very screwed up with the current actors. Especially considering we don't know what schedule Rowling is going to be on for the next 3 books.

And they end at 18, IIRC.

Three books? Should only be two more books, unless Harry gets held back a year or they do a year after he leaves Hogwarts. Students aer only at Hogwarts for seven years.

[Japher]

18!, I thought it was 7... or maybe that was her movie deal... No idea.

Still, I think they do continuous shooting. Hold ups most likely occur in editing, special effects stuff and the like; post-shoot.

Still, we use our imaginations to read we can use them to watch a movie. Just so long as 15 year old HP doesn't have hair coming out of his ears and syatic problems I don't think it will be to bad.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Sorry, typo.

[Imran Siddiqui]

18!, I thought it was 7

Yeah, 7 years starting from age 11.

[chequita guevara]

Including age 11.

[Imran Siddiqui]

But I thought the novels were ending when Harry was 18... you know after the school year ended, with a great battle and all.

[chequita guevara]

'Tis possible. Harry's B-day is in the summer, about a week or so before the start of classes. So he won't be eighteen for about a month and a half after the end of his final year, which is supposed to be the final book.

She say no more Hogwarts books after that, but will we see books about Harry the Auror?
