@emily: David Barron did say that the additional scene takes place at the burrow and that’s it’s going to be a dark scene. so we know that much. i just can’t wait until the movie comes out.

So a leaked scene appears on the IMDb, in which we see Harry and the Weasleys engaged in a very dark action scene at the Burrow involving Bellatrix and Greyback. Then a couple of days later, one of the movie’s producers just happens to confirm that there has indeed been a scene added to the movie that wasn’t in the book, that this scene takes place at the Burrow, and that it’s “dark” in tone….. but some are asserting that this is NOT the same scene as the one that was leaked?

Hmm. That strikes me as WAY too much of a coincidence. I believe the leaked scene is real, and I believe it’s the same one that has been posted here on the first page of the comments. But of course, if you choose to believe it isn’t the same scene, that’s your prerogative.

But I still think it’s too much of a coincidence for it to be fake.

Nolan, believe me, there are lot of people on this forum that are waaaaaay more anoying than you. (I include myself, but I’m also talking about the geniusses that didn’t read the leaked script, but do have there opinion ready on it)

Jimi, what the hell do you mean “it is lacking a hardcore action sequence” ?? what about when harry and dumbledore come back from the cave and there is fighting at hogwarts!? bill gets his face riped apart, ginny is fighting, the big blonde DE is killed, nevill and flitwick get hurt. is that hard core enough for you?

i dunno about this scene though. whenever they add a scene, they usually cut or shorten another scene from the book. and this scene will take time. they just can’t randomely start fighting at the Burrow! there needs to be some introduction—which takes time! i really hope they can pull it off though…

Yes! I was hoping they’d show more of what’s going on in the world. Flying newspaper headlines just aren’t enough in my opinion. I don’t know if that leaked script is legitimate, but it seems so. It seems to be the Heyman style, if such a thing exists.

I would have preferred to see random acts of violence and disaster, and I’m not too keen on this weird chase scene. But still, the movies are their own entity now, and so far I’ve liked what they’ve done with ‘em.

OKAY. WHY are you guys talking about what you would have liked to see and what’s wrong with scene and what the movie is missing when the movie has NOT even come out yet??! Confuse me please. We still have a good 9 or 10 months until the movie even comes out. They haven’t even finished filming it! So I think this whole conversation is completely irrevelevant. I mean it would make a little sense if we had seen a 50 sec trailer like we did for OOTP, but you guys are judging the movie off a allegedley leaked part of the script and you don’t even know if it’s real.

I know some of you are all like “it’s real cause it’s too much of a coincidence” but that’s exactly why I think its FAKE cause it’s too much of a coincidence for the exact scene that Barron just recently talked about to be leaked like the next day! And the script has never been leaked before!

@ celia: With all due respect, I don’t think I’m going to bother responding to you anymore. I’m not trying to be rude. It’s just that it seems you’re not even bothering to read people’s posts properly, and are misunderstanding (almost deliberately, it seems) what a lot of people are saying.

Also, you formed an opinion about the leaked script BEFORE YOU EVEN READ IT, by your own admission. In fact, it doesn’t appear that you’ve done anything more than skim over it (and in doing so, came to the very faulty conclusion that Hermione was at the Burrow, which you later admitted was wrong… but only after your mistake was pointed out to you, and you had no choice but to acknowledge you’d been wrong). And yet, without even having read it properly, you seem to think that your opinion of the scene is the absolute right opinion, and everyone who disagrees with you (many of whom DID take the time to read the scene properly) is just wrong, wrong, wrong. As far as I can see, you haven’t even displayed a willingness to listen to what others are saying.

That tells me that you have already decided what you think about this topic, and are not open to a discussion of it. So I’m not going to bother anymore.

And besides, you are (imo) coming off as slightly rude and confrontational. I enjoy debate, but I prefer it without the rudeness, thanks.

“I’m also talking about the geniusses that didn’t read the leaked script, but do have there opinion ready on it”

LOL, Redbeard, I was thinking the same thing: “Wait, let me get this straight. You haven’t even read the script, but you think that you, and you alone, are the Almighty Authority on whether or not it’s legitimate? Really? Without even READING it first? Um, okay, if you say so.” ::snort::

If they would stick more with the book in the first place then they wouldn’t need to add scenes to catch everyone up. The danger lurking in the Muggle World does not seem conveyed in this scene, rather it is targeted at Harry, that is why Hermoine is asking him to realize who he is because trouble follows him. Duh, I think we already know that. I believe once again we are being lied to by the filmakers because they have screwed up another movie. I do not have faith in David Yates, he has taken what Calderone said too far about “it’s O.K. to change things in the movie as long as you keep to the spirit of the book”. Calderone did a good job in this sense for Book 3, but David Yates did not in Book 5 and probably not in Book 6!!!!

Now Now y’all lets think optimistically about this, we will all probably love the sixth movie very much- we obviously know there is an added scene, which there has been in like every movie since COS but we dont know for sure if it is the one that got leaked on IMDb or not, so maybe we should just wait and see till be hear more or see more- like the trailer which I cant wait for. so lets all hold on to our thestrals!

I agree with Redbeard, Danielle, and Saria.

I totally understand and respect the fact that some don’t want to read the leaked scene because they don’t want to be spoiled. That’s certainly their right.

However, if you choose NOT to read it, then I think you forfeit your right to cast judgment on it. You can’t have an informed opinion on the scene being good or bad, relevant or irrelevant, real or fake, if you haven’t even read it.

And merely scanning the scene isn’t enough. As Celia so spectacularly and unwittingly demonstrated in her “Hermione’s-name-was-in-that-script-a-million-times-but-that-can’t-be-right-because-she-was-giving-Ron-the-silent-treatment-so-she-wouldn’t-be-at-the-Burrow-in-the-first-place-so-the-script-MUST-be-fake!” post, you simply can’t get an accurate estimation of the scene by only scanning it. You have to actually read the scene, properly, from beginning to end, and THEN you can decide what you think about it.

If you still hate it after reading it, then have at it: moan, complain, vent to your heart’s content. But at least do yourself and everyone else the courtesy of actually reading the thing first. Otherwise, you should probably just stay mum about it. Just sayin’.

Speaking of the trailer, have we heard anything about when we might expect one? I know it’s still months and months before the movie comes out, but still, I was thinking maybe a teaser trailer can’t be too far in the future. Or is that too optimistic?

Anyone heard anything?

@Brenda: ...Calderone??? You mean Cuaron? Lol.

@danielle: you’re right. I don’t read other peoples posts. i just basically read the first sentence and that’s it. i’m just waaay too lazy to read two paragraphs about something i know i don’t really care about. but as i said before i’m not going to read the alleged leaked script because i don’t want to be spoiled. i really want to see the HBP movie but i can wait 9 or 10 months. i’m not going read some spoiler even if it is real which is very doubtful.

@Ashley: i don’t think we’re gonna get a trailer until sometime in August or September. It’s way too far away for a trailer. We might start getting some promotional images soon though and i can’t wait!

I think we’ll get a teaser in the summer. The start of pics might be in late spring. Then maybe a proper trailer at the beginning of autumn.

@Celia: In that case, I’ll make sure this post is only a couple sentences long. Please stop talking about and rebuking people for posts (that you admit you haven’t even read) about a mysterious leaked scene (that you admit you haven’t even read), since you only reveal your own ignorance when you do so, and you’re really making yourself look rather silly.

@Monica: i’m a reasonable person unlike some people. So I won’t respond to any posts i haven’t read thoroughly. Happy now?...i doubt it.

“We don’t often have things that aren’t in the book,” HA! stupidest statement ever. He obviously hasn’t read the books in a while.

They dont often have things that arnt in the book and if they do its so the movie can portray it better, as in this situation. We read the books so think about how hard it would be to make a movie exactly how it is in the book, there would be alot of back and forth stuff and people would get dizzy and confused. Books are the books and these are the movies. By the way they said a teaser trailer would be coming out soon- this was a while ago but WB announced that. some speculate it might be with 10,000 BC.

BellaSnape – As much as I would LOVE a teaser trailer with 10,000BC (even though I’m not that thrilled about that movie) I doubt it. A Dark Knight has dibbs on it. And I don’t think WB is going to do a double big movie with that one film. They are focusing on ADK with 10,000BC (and focusing more on Harvey Dent in this trailer instead of the Joker (aka Aaron Ekheart instead of Heath Ledger). I think a safer bet would be something like when Indy 4 comes out in May. I think that would be a smart move for WB. Everyone is psyched about Indy 4 (I saw Definitely, Maybe last weekend and the Indy 4 trailer was shown and people clapped) and that would probably be the best film to show the trailer under. It would get the biggest showing.
