Hang on everyone, we have a new installment in the rumor of the day/week/month category as the wait continues on a trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film. TLC has now received several credible reports from sources who say there will be a trailer for HBP attached to Star Wars: The Clone Wars when it opens on August 15. However the latest twist is that this will be the full -length trailer as WB is eschewing a teaser to bring a longer amount of footage for fans next month. Again, while this possibility of a trailer with Clone Wars has been floating on the net for a while (along with the numerous other possible movies/dates we’ve reported previously) these latest reports holds a bit more credibility than others, however it should remain very much in the rumor category for now.
Also, it should be stressed that we are still awaiting an official confirmation from Warner Brothers regarding that rumor of a tiny teaser before the IMAX screenings only of The Dark Knight film next week. Again, as reported a few days ago, this will most likely not be an actual ‘trailer,’ but rather simply the logo, a bit of music, and some words saying coming in IMAX this winter. Alas. Thus, the great trailer watch continues, and we will update with more on all of this when we can.
Yeah, if we have to wait a whole month to see it, it better be the full trailer. I wouldn’t mind if it came out with SW, I’d just watch it online. Although there is something especially satisfying about watching a trailer in theatres. I wouldn’t mind seeing SW: TCW, but I just watched a trailer for it and at first I thought it was a trailer for a Star Wars video game.
There is absolutely NO WAY I will see Clone Wars. I’ve been making fun of the Star Wars movie since the trailer came out. It’s about as sucky as you can get. Glad to hear SOMETHING about HBP trailer though :)
I have no interest in the animated Star Wars, even though I am a Star Wars fan, so I won’t be seeing the trailer in theaters;however, I am looking forward to multiple viewing and screen capturing online! :D I’m just sad I have to wait a whole month for the fun to begin! sigh
OMG on my birthday!! how cool! but this isnt a movie many people would watch for the movie. people will only watch this movie because of the HBP trailer. oh gosh, i cant wait!!
Why the heck are they choosing an Animated Star Wars movie for the preview of HBP???? Dark Knight is a much more anticipated movie and will get a ton more viewers than some silly animated movie, geez WB what is ur problem?
Jen, they’re going for the opposite effect this time. They’re mistakenly hoping that putting a trailer in front of this movie will make all the HP fans go and see it. I think that strategy will produce some, but very limited results. Looks like WB has probably been sitting on the trailer for ages just waiting for a film with dismal prospects to attach it to.
When Clone Wars bombs anyway, they’ll realise their mistake and try to salvage the fan hype that they killed in the last three months, and the flood of trailers will start.
OMG OMG. Let this be true. I don’t want my heart to be broken … again. :]
