Even though we do not yet have any new “Half-Blood Prince” photos as of yet, we do have a bit of news on some new high res photos from “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.” Oclumencia let us know they have some high res (and quite large) still photos from the Ministry of Magic scene filming now online. Of interest is this photo of Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort, Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix, Michael Gambon as Dumbledore and Dan Radcliffe as Harry as a group, smiling in between takes on the filming for that dramatic fight at the end of the movie. In the photo, you can clearly see the blue marking spots on actor Ralph Fiennes, where the special effects will later go to help create his look as Voldemort. Other new photos include this fantastic one of the Gryffindor Common Room with a very clear look at Neville and his Mimbulus Mimbletonia, as well as photos of David Thewlis as Lupin, David Yates giving direction to the Trio Evanna Lynch and Matt Lewis, Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix (look at her nails!) and saving the best for last ;) Jason Isaacs as Lucius Malfoy.
1. I kind of think Voldemort looks more terrifying with a nose. I liked the make-up in GOF, but for some reason in OOTP it started looking distinctly goofy. He looks like Bat Boy.
2. Bellatrix’s nails = yikes.
3. In the picture of the common room – are the two students snuggling with each other in the back the same one that Umbridge breaks apart during her Montage of Terror?
OO!! I have never seen those pics!!! Pretty cool!!! Bellatrix’s nails look disgusting!!! I like the one of bella,voldie,dd, and harry!!!They are all enemies, but smiling in the same pic!!!Bella rox!! Cant wait 4 HBP ones!!!
CLEVER!! everyone is wanting new pictures….lol :D that picture of the 4 of dumbledore bellatrix harry and voldemort its a bit…cant think of a word for it. hehe
Actually, radcakesfan, from what I’ve seen, it’s the Dan/Emma shippers who are apescat crazy, and who have trouble separating Dan and Emma from Harry and Hermione. I’ve yet to see the R/E shippers do or say anything so insane that they end up on fandom_wank or hp_cornfield. The Dan/Emma crowd, on the other hand, are featured there quite frequently, due to their tinhat, straitjacket-worthy antics.
Anyway, cool pics. Like everyone else, the Voldy/Bella/Dumbly/Harry one made me LOL. But I’m a lot more interested in getting some HBP pics. Come on, WB, take pity on us!
It does Thio XD.. And the picture itself is so..weird… But I like it lol it’s like “stop the fight.. Group hug!” Lol!
Please, I’m a shipper and all, but let’s not start a shipping war.. Let’s all complain about lack of HBP stuff and laugh at the bella, voldy, harry and dumbledore pic, shall we? :D
“anyone else hearing the screams from r/e shippers because Emma is touching Dan again lol? “
Um… nope.
Anyway, I find it quite amusing that, in the absense of any new HBP pics, we get MORE pics from the previous film which had us drowning in the things by the time the film came out.
Having said that, I’m actually rather enjoying the silence and am wondering how long I will get to remain unspoiled, although I suspect there will be a sudden barrage. For everyone else’ sakes I hope we get it.
Check out the rings on Bella’s fingers….very cool.
I saw the Lucius costume on display here in LA and the level of detail was amazing. It doesn’t really show up in the film, but the quilted design of the leather front piece was extraodinary. It looked like a leather version of a breastplate that a medeival knight would wear ….....and Voldy’s robes are actually dark green and not black.
Anyway, I do stand corrected, for I do not consider myself the Holier than Thou Spokesperson for all that is Ron/Rupert and R/Hr. So, perhaps I’ll just base my views on those fans with whom I have contact with.

Ron hovered behind the bookshelves for a while, watching Krum, debating in whispers with Harry whether he should ask for an autograph -- but then Ron realized that six or seven girls were lurking in the next row of books, debating exactly the same thing,
ROTFL Thio!!!
