It’s the start of a new month, and time for a new batch of rumors regarding a possible description of the teaser trailer for “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.” While there have been several floating around on the net in the past few weeks, TLC has received a description that is of some merit. The report says again that the trailer is still tentatively attached to Prince Caspian/Narnia on the 16th, and that the trailer will clearly show the darkening tone of the series, “with footage of the attack on the Burrow” as evidence of this. Reportedly, trailer shots will include a taunting Bellatrix, Draco on the train, Slughorn, Snape in a pivotal moment, Dumbledore in the cave, and clear evidence of the developing Harry/Ginny relationship. There are also quick glimpses of Quidditch, the Trio, and a bit of humor from Ron. Please note: As exciting as this sounds, please keep this very much in the rumor category for now. We are hopeful that WB will be releasing photos and more information on a trailer in the coming days, and will update with more on this when we can.

KEEP UP WITH THE NEWS PEOPLE!

There is a non book scene at the burrow where it is attacked in movie 6! Leaky, please update this story with a link to your previous article. The one about the producer talking about this scene. Then people will stop automatically writing this off mistakingly thinking report to be fake or think it’s referring to the wedding in Deathly Hallows.

I think there must of been a typo in this report. It says above that it shows footage of the attack on the burrow, but thats not untill The Deathly Hallows, maybe they meant the attack on Hogwarts?

oaky, couple of questions…1) so if tonks is only is the miniattack on the burrow, how on earth is harry dear gonna get off the train after he is attacked by draco???? tonks is harry’s little savior. who is gonna rescue harry? i would, but i seriously doubt they would cast me. sigh theyre missing out… anyway… 2)will the Gaunts be here? im guessing in the movie they wont show all harry/dumbledore’s little meetings, but they kinda need to show that memory. i hope they do the one w/ hepziba smith and hokey the house elf. for sure theyre gonna do the young riddle asking about horcruxes. Ooh, i wonder if theyll do the aragog buriel, becuase thats where harry gets the memory. hmm…..

1) they can easily let someone else save Harry – be it Neville, Luna, Hermione, Snape etc. It’s not that big a deal. Not good for Tonkslovers but hey, what can you do.

2) Gaunts are out. This was one of the first bits of info about HBP we ever got. Try to keep up please. Hepzibah/Hokey memory is out too. I’m guessing they might be mentioned but those memories but visuall they are not in.

*but those memories are visually not in.

Wow, I can hardly wait for this movie to come out. I think that all five, yes I said ALL FIVE movies have been as close to the books as they are or were going to get. Our imaginations take us somewhere where we cant expect people to fully recreate. SO I applaud the team who has brought us these movies so far. I think that the sixth sounds very good. Yes as always some of our favorite moments and characters have been sacrificed but that is what happens in adaptations. I have seen it in more than Harry Potter. So just relax and enjoy. I just hope I get to see this trailer with Speed Racer or Narnia, one or the other WB let us know for petes sake!!!!

This rumor doesn’t make sense. Why would WB attach the trailer to a competing studio’s film when it has it’s own movie opening this weekend, Speed Racer? and some more in the next few weeks. and The Dark Knight in july. Studios release trailers with their own movies, not other studio’s films. Something doesn’t sound right. This is a trick to lure HP fans into watching a Narnia film. If you want to see Prince Caspian, then see it because you want to see Prince Caspian and for this trailer trick.
