There is new footage from the upcoming “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” film included on the US Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix DVD. Readers will recall that when the UK saw the release last month, there were two special sneak peeks at the sixth Harry Potter film included via the DVD; today there is new video with the sneak peek, including some fantastic shots of Draco (Tom Felton) cursing Harry on the train, and Harry and Ginny, the interior of Slughorn’s home, and even dialog between Professor Dumbledore and Harry discussing Horcruxes (yes really!). Also new are various interviews conducted recently at the DVD launch in London, England, including new quotes from actress Emma Watson (Hermione), Matt Lewis (Neville), Rupert Grint (Ron) a hilarious quote from Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) discussing the Ron/Lavender snogging scenes, as well as quotes from producer David Heyman and HBP director David Yates.

Well hear is a different way to look at it. The UK and others got the DVD a month ago with a few early shots of HBP. Then WB releases the US one a month later and can add more HPB footage. Just think if all the DVDs were released last month WB may not have released the new fottage and no one would have seen it maybe for months. WB knows that all the footage would be seen by all of us because of sites like leaky and youtube (even though WB tries to keep it off of youtube). This way we all win we all get to see more footage.
Hmm. I just think the DvDs should be the same for everyone, and realised at the same time, just like all the others dvd releases. Why did they have to change it? It doesn’t matter that the footage will be uploaded on youtube or whatever, not all HP fans check the websites daily or even weekly.
Meh, I wasn’t overly concerned about the release dates… But the fact that its upsetting people and countries who were waiting on it… WB shouldn’t have done it. maybe… mind you, they probably had some weird marketing strategy, or something…
Did anyone else hear what Rupert and David Yates said about RON playing quidditch?! YEAH!! And it showed his outfit. Sue, can you please tell us is this footage from the US DVD or what? Thanks!
I was excited to see the Dursley’s sitting room. I am really hoping that they include the “won’t won’t won’t” scene with Kreacher! That would be awesome!
I’m also hoping we get Luna at Slughorn’s Christmas Party.
Glenn, I’m sure that that is Slughorn’s not the Durseley’s. Also, someone from the imdb boards, who is very credible (he put up the ootp script months in advance and it turned out to be right…he works for the films) said that it is 90% sure the Dursely’s are cut.
QUIDDITCH?!?1 lurvely… _
Do you think that when they show quidditch, they’re going to illustrate the fact that Draco darling is’nt at all interested in quidditch at all this year? And show that scene where Draco is stalking away with girl!Crabbe&Goyle and Harrys all like : “Where the hellz do u think ur going?” and Draco’s all like “Run along now creep or Whut-evah they’re callin u now O “Chosen one Boy who Scored” or w/ever.
And Harry’s all like “Then I ain’t doin no quidditch neither” (and then a bludger breaks his head) _ silly boy… _
I just love these little videos from the upcoming movies, they;re so exciting! Then again we love HP so much that if they just sent screen shots we would all be jumping up and down squeeing. lol…
I love the Harry and Ginny “almost” kissing scene but I hope its not the first kiss. (I dont think so because they’re was no one else in the scene and from what I could see it didnt look like the Gryfindor common room) The first one is very dramatic and passionate. I hope they do that scene the right way.
Minnie, I am fairly sure that what we saw was a run-through. In the final cut of the scene it will just be Harry and Draco.
