The length of filming has nothing to do with the length of the movie. The kids are no longer kids, with child labour laws dictating how long they can spend working. Hence, the movies don’t take as long to make.

Also, for those of you baying for a trailer, the teaser for OOTP came out a few weeks after principal photography finished for the movie. It didn’t come out during the making of the film, why would it this time? The trailer will likely come in the next few weeks to a month.

I posted something similar to this on another thread a few days ago and it was deleted, dear Leaky. Why?

Filming is complete. Isn’t it time to take down the “Now Showing” link for OotP Film on the Leaky home page and put up an HBP Film Countdown ticker instead?

Why are they waiting so long for release? November 21st, thats around Thanksgiving! If we have to wait that long, then WB may as well give us several great trailers and plenty of photos to feed our appetite until November!

God damn; I’m so excited to see what they’ve done with this film, that it’s aching in my tummy everytime I think about it! Can’t believe they’ve finished, They’ve got to be a bit sad; they’re second to last film together? ..

Yeah, Bring on the trailer! We’re seriously going crazy. And let’s see som Harry/Ginny in the trailer :D And some Tonks/Lupin! <3

It’s about time they said something. I was kind of mad when they said that about HBP not being attached to the narnia movie. Anyway hope we get some new HBP pictures in the next month and the trailer this summer. If the HP,HBP movie is coming out in November arent they going to do some more filming in September, October, amd maybe November? Oh and one more thing, HP, POA will be airing Saturday the 24 and they said that WB might show footage of HBP in between the commercials lets hope that’s true.
