New Mention of "Half-Blood Prince" in Film Review Magazine

HBP Film

Thanks to our Order partner DanRadcliffe.com, we can see this new article from the June 2008 issue of Film Review, where actor Dan Radcliffe briefly discusses both the “Deathly Hallows” and “Half-Blood Prince” films. Of the upcoming sixth Harry Potter film, Dan notes:

“Harry is unhappy for a lot of this film, mainly because people keep trying to kill him. And his love life is awful, too. That’s what Jo [Rowling] does so well, combining everyday mundane problems with this incredible other world.”

Thanks Jenna!

I’m so excited about HBP.

The teaser trailer is due to May 16th. Aargh. And after that we still have to wait to get the actual trailer. And then we have to wait to have all the promotional pictures…. Really frustrating.

I hope this satisfies all the whiners who thought this film wouldn’t be dark enough. XD

Can’t wait till November!!

When will the trailer come out ? In case of Ootp, the first trailer came months before the film’s release.

Yay! As the release date approaches, my anxiety grows uncontrollably. Especially, I can’t wait to see the teaser trailer most of all. I hope it does’nt spoil much, yet shows bits and peaces that will leave me amazed (such as a scene of the cave and Astrology tower), but I gotto admit I was dissapointed by the teaser trailer of OOTP, for it showed nothing interresting at all, it totally turned down my anxiety. Still can’t wait for May 16th, if that wasn’t just a rumor. Yay!

make me think of the line from the book ( i think HBP but i could be mistaken) where hermione says that ron and harry would have nothing to worry about fromthe death eaters and harry responds “oh yah we’d be best mates if they did not try to kill me all the time ” ( may not be the actual line but its close ) anyway that does sum it up nicely for HBP harry’s love is awfull but it gets allbetter inthe end of the series , not gonna say more as not to give spoilers for those who may not have read the books all six of them (j/k)lol

I really hope the Harry/Ginny stuff goes well. It was my favourite romance in HBP although Ron/Hermione are my favourite couple.

This is a little random,but whatever. Ok, why in the world, do we have only 2 Half-Blood Prince pics? When we had to wait for the other movies, we had by this time like 30 of them I dont understand at all!

I’m totally with you, Gonzo. The lack of promotional stills and/or footage is so disappointing… :(

And that’s why I love Dan. He really gets the books.

WB is keeping it more secret this time,,,,,one would suppose it is to surprise everyone more with the film when it is shown, but also the less that is shown before hand the more injoyable the film .I do think there will be clips and photos soon,but i have the feeling-and i could be wrong-that we aren’t going to get as much beforehand about this film as we have in the past. Which could well work to our utmost favor and great surprise.

And I agree with Dan’s accessmant of Harry for HBP.He was still dealing with the sadness of the losss of his godfather and the love he wasn’t sure he should show to others for the person that he did.Plus he had so much on his shoulders ,for more than any other teenager would have to deal with. Excellent Dan.

Part of me is dreading hbp. I cried so hard at the Tower scene, and that was reading it. I think i’ll be an emotional wreck seeing it! Also going to miss Potter when final film is out.
