HBP mix: No trailer with Prince Caspian, new pic of Harry?
HBP mix: No trailer with Prince Caspian, new pic of Harry? For the past few weeks now, rumors have been circulating around the web that the Half-Blood Prince teaser trailer would be released with Prince Caspian tomorrow.

Warner Brothers never passed official word along, and today MuggleNet visitor Christine informed us that the Prince Caspian reel delivered to a movie theater she works for definitely does not include the trailer.

Additionally, this new picture of Harry was sent in by Potterish and Oclumencia, likely from Half-Blood Prince (what Harry is wearing can be compared to this picture). It depicts Harry looking into some sort of drawer. Any ideas? Leave 'em in the comments!

Thanks again to Christine, Potterish, and Oclumencia!

I think it is the scene on page 337 in HBP where Harry is in the attic bedroom at the Burrow on Christmas eve. Ron is asleep and Harry digs through his chest to find the Advanced Potions Making Book to determine how old it is. Anyone agree?


Posted by SLKuhnzRN May 17th 2008

That is probably when Harry is doing dention for snape, and he found the file on his dad.


Posted by SabineHolterman May 17th 2008

My first impression on seeing the two pictures was that the most recent one was when Harry is doing his detention in Snape's office and is going through the cards with all of the punishments over the years. It is when he finds cards with his father's and Sirius's name on them, and Snape goads him about it. If the pictures go together the second/older one might have been when he was walking back to the common room after detention and is waiting to find out the result of the Quidditch match. Probably not but that's my guess.


Posted by ClosetPotterFan May 17th 2008

I'm sure they wouldn't do this for HBP, but I love that scene when Harry finds the picture of himself when he was a baby riding the (first) broom Siruis bought him:) This picture reminds me of that scene. I hope they put that in the films! I'm going to cry:(


Posted by honouraryweasley12 May 17th 2008

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but I think this photo is from the scene when Harry first acquires Snape's old textbook in Potions class. In the novel, Slughorn is the one who retrieves the old textbooks for Harry and Ron from the cabinet, but I think in the film, it will make more sense for Harry to go to the cabinet and discover the textbook. Thoughts?


Posted by Theviel07 May 17th 2008

its simple... he's in slughorn's office looking for the lost memory or some evidence of it lol.....


Posted by TearsOfLaughter May 17th 2008

honouraryweasley12, if he was in class he would be wearing school robes, no? Someone on the previous page pointed out that thet trunk could not be upside down, or the drawer would be as well. Now I don't know what my theory is...


Posted by m0rtified May 17th 2008

maybe hes looking for his cloak. because dumbledore told him to take it with him.


Posted by Abergoat May 17th 2008

It's amazing how many of you get the books mixed up. Anyway, I think the detention is at night, so this makes no sense.


Posted by heyyoh May 17th 2008

I think that the thing he is looking in is his trunk. I also think that the room he is in is at the Dursley's house, it looks similar to the decor in their house in the fifth movie. He could be packing while waiting for Dumbledore to come and pick him up, but he doesn't exactly look like he is in a hurry.


Posted by pj95945 May 17th 2008

Because he is in muggle clothing...I think he is looking around at "Slughorn's house" after Dumbledore retrieves him from the Dursley's...just a guess. Bezoar sounds good, but he isn't in his robes.


Posted by Mrsroonil_wazlib May 17th 2008

normal hair!!!!!! YAY!!!!


Posted by Baabwa May 17th 2008

It is the detention scene. Although I run the risk of showing my age here, it looks like Harry is looking at an old-timey card catalog storage device. Anybody remember when you had to look up where a book was in a library by using the card catalog "system" instead of a computer? LOL


Posted by rooon May 17th 2008

Awww....


Posted by heartnut May 17th 2008

He's in Hepzibah Smith's apartment during a Penseive visit for clues to Tom Riddle's past. That's what kicked into my mind first with that tapestry in the background.


Posted by LindaW May 17th 2008

I instantly thought of the bezoar scene, and it looks like I'm not alone, so that's my bid. =]


Posted by Slytherin15 May 17th 2008

hmmm...


Posted by hpwiz812 May 17th 2008

ok, they SERIOUSLY need to release a teaser trailer...NOW!!!!!!


Posted by obsessedwithhp21 May 17th 2008

well. i saw prince caspian today and there weren't any previews. don't ask me why. haha so i dunno. but i am super excited. p.s. Prince Caspian was a GREAT movie! :D


Posted by tabitoo May 17th 2008

Has filming on Half Blood Prince ended yet, or are they still filming. I read somewhere that ending would end sometime in May. I just wondered if anyone here knew.


Posted by HPfanx14 May 17th 2008

hey is anyone on here? if so tlk =]


Posted by paranoid4 May 18th 2008

MAN CMON RELEASE THE TRAILER LINKIN PARK RELEASE AN ALBUM! COLDPLAY RELEASE AN ALBUM! I CANT WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAIT ! MUGGLENET ROCKS! LP ROCKS!


Posted by evanna11 May 18th 2008

Mundungella , what edition do you have of the book? And people, Siriusly, it just can


Posted by gsoccerguy May 18th 2008

It could be at the beginning of the book where he's packing for Dumbledore to pick him up.


Posted by Mundungella May 18th 2008

response to evanna 11: It is the first "American" edition of HBP (July 2005) on pg 337 in "A Very Frost Christmas" chapter. Harry is in the attic bedroom at the burrow on Christmas eve and delving through his trunk to find his copy of Advanced Potion Making. This is my best guess of which scene in the book matches this mystery pic but who can know till the movie comes out. The movies are so notoriously altered from the books (often unnecessary in my opinion) that this picture is probably from some made up scene.


Posted by thediscoaliance May 18th 2008

at the orphanage with Dumbledore looking into little Riddle's drawer where he kept souvenirs from his victims.


Posted by pradeepseven May 18th 2008

well, i guess he is just helping himself to some old potions book as he doesnt have one of his own (slughorn tells him to do so).


Posted by lilyann May 18th 2008

I think harry is looking for the bezoar in potions class! its a grat pic but we need more ya know. i mean the movies is out in like 6 months and we havent really had any great news. Perhaps they are keeping it so tightly under wraps because it is going to be so much better then the rest?


Posted by Booksrmylife May 18th 2008

Remember how Harry got, y'know, stomped on on the Hogwarts Express by Malfoy? well, he got to the feast and his room and stuff late, and still in his muggle clothes. I was thinking that maybe that had something to do with the second pic, if not the first. The only thing is that Harry's holding the potions book in the first picture, but he doesn't get till the next day...so now I'm stumped, still, I guess, AND I'm crushed 'cause the trailer isn't out yet. ):


Posted by evanna11 May 18th 2008

Ow okay. I've got the UK children's edition, so it was a bit weird:P


Posted by PJC May 18th 2008

Would they not release the trailer in England first though. So maybe they got the dates mixed, maybe its the 26th June when Prince Caspian is released here ???


Posted by nickypotter May 18th 2008

so let me get this straight ... in that narnia movie , somewhere in the beginning as the previews of other movies are playing the trailor fro harry potter and the half blood prince is shown ? or is it a lie ? someone explain this to me :/


Posted by snowowl May 18th 2008

I think that this photo is from the scene where Harry is serving his detention with Snape after what happedned with Malfoy. Does everyone agree? Has anyone send the trailer yet?


Posted by Fia May 18th 2008

The trailer isn't out yet! I saw Prince Caspian (btw it was WONDERFUL! SO much more suspensful then Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe),and there were no HBP trailers... I hope there's one soon!!!!!!! Can you tamper with stuff in other people's memories? I mean, if he was in a memory, he wouldn't be able to do anything, right? Just watch... Right?


Posted by crumple_horned_snorcak May 18th 2008

for all we know, this pic could be of something that wasn't in the book at all...they could have added it cuz they messed up in one of the other movies and forgot to show us something!!!! but personally, i don't think its the detention or the bezoar scene, cuz A) the settings not right and B) he looks too relaxed to be in detention or a life or death situation... but thats just my opinion........


Posted by paranoid4 May 19th 2008

JUST RELEASE THE TRAILER ON JUNE 1ST! OH IM SOOOOOO EXICTED!! I WANNA SEE THE SCENE WHEN HARRY KISSESS GINNY WOOOOOOO!!!!


Posted by swishnflick104 May 19th 2008

Could it be Winky's memory? (i.e. When he and Dumbledore are at Hepzibah Smith's house - maybe he's looking into the case containing Hufflepuff's cup?)


Posted by MagicMaker222 May 19th 2008

I also saw Prince Caspian(I like that they stuck to the book and HP should take notes form the director)and no trailer. All the movies the were shown during the Caspian preview looked insanely stupid! Is Batman a WB movie, maybe it'll come out then. I'm sure it'll be released when a BIG movie comes out.


Posted by TagneyFRiverdale May 19th 2008

Oh come on people, this picture is CLEARLY Harry serving detention for Snape and going through the old detention cards. . . . haven't any of you read the book?


Posted by Abergoat May 19th 2008

TagneyFRiverdale... The detention happens at night, and in either Snape's office or the DADA classroom (I can't remember right now). Both of those rooms are described as being dark and creepy like Snape's dungeons. Not brightly lit like this room.


Posted by Sinead_the_sneakascope May 19th 2008

I think it might be in Horace Slughorns house


Posted by nanners454 May 19th 2008

I only read about the first 50 but my thought is it has something to do with the felix felicis and putting it in his trunk or taking it out. The detention idea is good as well but it really looks like a trunk.


Posted by lilyann May 19th 2008

Ok so maybe the WB people are listening to mugglecast and know that Andrew and Laura are reasy to throw dow if we did not get ANY information!!!!!!!!!!! I am excited but i hope the trailer comes out ASAP!!!! But i think it is a still from the trailer maybe its a sign that the trailer is coming out.....


Posted by Mrspadfoot_007 May 19th 2008

Darn I was really hoping it would be out with narnia! well hopefully it comes out soon....how long are they gonna make us eager potter fans wait!


Posted by gossamer May 19th 2008

oooh! i bet the drawer thingy is when he's lookn for Sirius' mirror near the end. Watch. It will be.


Posted by Rose37 May 20th 2008

I know that all of us hp fans need to calm down and...................... ..............WHAT IN THE WORLD AM I SAY, WE NEED TO GO CRAZY AND YELL. THE TRAILER NEEDS TO BE RELEASED AND NOW OR ELSE(BLOOD WILL BE SPILLED)!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!


Posted by Chris10 May 20th 2008

IDK but my guess from the look on his face that he is franticly look for something wich would lead me to think hes in slughorns office looking for a bezor to save ron after drinking the poisoned mead!! but who knows for sure!


Posted by zumer92 May 20th 2008

if you look closely at the picture, you can see an s and a period after it, and when you adjust some of the settings, you can see part of an h or an f start to appear. i think it's slughorn's trunk, i think it's when harry is looking for either the potions book or the beazor for class, even though both should be in a big cabinet. it could also be at slughorn's house, but that's supposed to be at night. another possibility is that the letters stand for Student Files, and he's doing detention for snape in filch's office. as for the standing up picture, he wouldn't be holding the map out in the open like that if he wasn't around people he trusted, especially when it's showing the map. there's a lot of light and part of a staircase behind him, which means he's entering the boy's dormitory. it suck that the trailer isn't out yet, i hope it gets out soon.


Posted by witchwhich3 May 20th 2008

Hello! I think this is from the end of the movie-If you look at Harry's hand on the side, it looks like he is hold a "chain" or MAYBE a special locket! I think the "hidin" drawer has Harrys broken mirror in it-and he is putting the two together in his trunk. (since they didnt show the mirror in movie 5-it cant just "show up" in movie 7. Soooo thats my therory!


Posted by jojoinpink54 May 21st 2008

I can't wait for the trailer! It would have been awesome if HBP trailer had been w/narnia. Btw, prince caspian is like the best movie ever. yah other than hp which i think it's tied and potc which nothing surpasses... but still awesome. WHEN wiLL THE TRAILER COME OUT!????? I Can't wait for the movie!
