New HBP trailer in Japan - hitting US theaters Friday?
Japanese Potter fansite Pottermania has posted photos from what appears to be a brand new trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. In them (no video... yet), we see several new scenes: Harry and Slughorn enjoying a party, Harry and Dumbledore in the cave, Bellatrix attacking Hagrid's Hut, and Snape on the Astronomy tower with Harry.What's more, Portkey.it is reporting that the last full trailer for Half-Blood Prince is expected to premiere in the US this Friday in front of Inkheart. Could this Japanese trailer be one we'll see?
Please note that this is just a rumor for now, but we're currently trying to confirm with Warner Brothers. We'll keep you updated! Thanks to Peyton for the tip.

oh PLEASE let there be a new trailer! first!
I need need need a new trailer. Hopefully we get one! Is mugglenet loading weird for anyone else?
dude i hope theres a new trailer! 2nd! :]
i can't wait to see it!
jessie cave has a small character in Inkheart. a coincidance? mm i dont think so
Another trailer? That's weird.
AAAhhhH!!!! lol. I'm excited. I wanna see Snape and Harry on the Astronomy tower. I'm gonna wait till the trailer to see the photos, I think. Now I'm considering going to see Inkheart. This will bring the movie business, because I thought the movie wouldn't do that great, compared to the gross of City of Ember and stuff. I'm excited! OK, I'll look at the photos!!!

Yeah, MuggleNet is not loading graphics, just text, for me. Is anyone else having this problem?
I think it's too soon for another trailer *ducks and covers* I'm just afraid that because the film has been ready for so long and because we have so much time till July and we are putting so much pressure on it, we will now begin to get the whole movie in little clips like we did and GoF. And you can choose not to watch it, but it still ruins it. Is anyone else afraid of this?
Look at the Snape and Harry pic on the Astronomy tower. It looks like Snape is "shushing" Harry (put his fingers to his lips). I really hope this isn't true. But I guess it would be more difficult to explain that Snape is innocent in the next film, and to explain how Harry was frozen.
Oooohhh! I am excited to see it, but I am kind of sad because it would be the last trailer we get until the movie actually comes out! That would be a 6 month wait until the movie! I would rather get this last trailer sometime in like, March or May... but this all could be a rumor, so you never know.
To fix the NO IMAGES LOADING thing: Just click another layout in the top right of the page.
is it my macbook or is the css for the site all screwy?
I wish the movie would just come out!
I'm surprised that we're getting another trailer.........not complaining but it's just weird.... Also, saw this article on Leaky a couple of hours ago and the pics are alot clearer here then on Leaky.....
I'm sorry, this has nothing to do with the trailer, but MuggleNet won't load past blue text on black on any of the computers in my house... is that just me??
oh cool!!!
Hope it's good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, I hope there's a new trailer!
please please new trailer. hmm snape hushing harry...
Did anyone notice that they are releasing these trailers in front of Brendan Fraser movies?
??? O.o I'm just in shock like another *possible* trailer already? Not that I object to it but it seems I will have seen at least 10 mins of this movie already if this one comes out now.
i hope it comes out here. i wants to see it.
There better be a new trailer because W.B knows they screwed up when they pushed back Harry Potter and releasing trailers is the only way to keep rabid Harry Potter fans from tearing down their studio !!!! (BTW 2 energy drinks and four chocolate bars for lunch= bad idea) (BTW2 Mugglnet is being sorta screwy, I had to put my login in four times before it accepted, and I wasn't typing it wrong or anything)

Does anyone else think that the cave looks like the planet Krypton (from Superman)? Lol.
IM PEYTON!!!!!!!! OMG IM SO HAPPY!! IM MENTIONED ON MUGGLENET!!!!!!!!!I SENT THIS IN YESTERDAY!!! WHOOO I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS POST THANK YOU MUGGLENET!!!!
Oddly enough, they almost look fake.
Snape is shushing Harry.
hm....thats interesting...
With that last picture of snape and Harry I don't think it looks like the top of the astronomy tower. It looks like it might be the boys bathroom. Also snape isn't looking at Harry when he's telling someone to be quiet it looks like he's saying it to someone else. Maybe Moaning Myrtle? Anyway its just a theory and I can't wait for the next trailer when it come out!
Why in the world is Snape shushing Harry?? This is my first post since the news that Potter was pushed back... I want the trailer!
I need the trailer like I need chocolate!
he's shushing harry because he's about to go up to kill well you know
Like everyone else, I'm looking forward to another trailer release. I wish I was better at Japanese so I could get some more info. on this, but alas...I need to study more and get cracking on the kanji! >.< Anyway, I'm really excited about this, though I am slightly worried that we might get too much of the movie before it's released, like with what happened with GoF. Oh, well, we'll just have to see how this all plays out. On a completely different note, I find it interesting that HBP in Japan is translated to Mysterious or Enigmatic Prince. It actually seems -slightly- more fitting...
But snape isn't meant to be able to see him is he?
altho i like seeing pix of the new movie i really wish they'd stop leaking...by the time the movie comes out we would have seen every frame!!! :D
Only if you can out it in order! And shouldn't Harry be in his Invisiblilty Cloak? ~Girl in Love
During the death scene, Harry isn't wearing his Invisibility Cloak, he is just below the scene in the little cranny. Also, Snape's shushing is an addition (a brilliant one too, incidentally). Snape is telling Harry to be quiet and basically that everything is going to be okay, so Harry listens to him and sort of trust him. Snape then goes back up, kills Dumbledore, and walks off with Draco. Harry, even more infuriated (with both Dumbledore's murder AND the fact that Snape blatantly lied to him), storms after him and thus the "FIGHT BACK, YOU COWARD!" line ensues
How do you know this? ~Girl in Love
this is wonderful news!!! i was planning on seeing inkheart on saturday. now i have something else to look forward to. although i went to see twilight with the hopes of an HP trailer but that didn't happen so i'll just keep my fingers crossed and hope i see the trailer.
Fia (Girl in Love): bucfanatic99 knows this (as I do) because he has read and listened to the reports from the test screenings of Half-Blood Prince and knows the plot of the film, the additions, exclusions, etc, etc. He's absolutely correct btw :)
I, for one, really hope that this new 'trailer' is a good one, because the others have been complete stinkers. OH, and btw, was I the only one who immediatley thought of the song "Lovers in Japan"? XD
I REALLY WANT THIS TRAILER!
CRAP! Now, I know how the end of HBP is!! This stinks!
Hagrid's Hut? I think this must be the Burrow.
No ellenred, this is ALSO gonna be Hagrid's Hut that catches on fire... while Harry is battling Snape
More pics of this japanese trailer over at hpana.com for anyone who's interested. It's mostly stuff we've seen but there is a lot more of slughorn, a new shot of Draco, and more of the lake scene. I am SO excited for this movie, seriously, these trailer are horrible and mean. We shouldn't have 3 full length trailers out and still almost 200 days left before the movie releases!!!
Why doesn't some one from Japan hurry up and record the trailer and put it online!!!! I NEED A NEW TRAILER!!!!
