Second Half-Blood Prince screening NOT real
The Sun recently reported that a second Half-Blood Prince screening occurred in London, and countless visitors have e-mailed us with the report. The Sun's story quoted Potter fans who were not happy with the film.As it turns out, Warner Brothers contacted us yesterday and told us that this article is not accurate. There was not a second screening of the film, and the quotes from fans were from months ago after the first screening in Chicago.

man i am SO SICK of us fans being messed with about this film.
Yey, First! Well I hope that means that they made the necessary changes foor the movie to be as it should be! I mean not a romantic comedy, but a great movie
sooo...fans aren't happy about the film, WB knew it, and didn't post their quotes and reviews? well, i think from the sneak peeks and trailers it looks like it's going to be great! and is it just me...or is tom felton superrrr hot in this movie? haha, and rupert, of course
Second screening or not, people aren't happy. GEE! I WANT TO GO SEE THAT MOVIE NOW!
...which is why you don't believe everything you read, even in newspapers.
What?! My opinion of the media is getting lower and lower.. And anyway, there'll always be positive and negative views.. There isn't any 'perfect' movie..Personally, I will try to enjoy the film as much as possible, really like it (I hope) and then afterwards start to really get annoyed at what they changed :P
what is the sun? i've never even heard of it? whatever. anyhoo, i really wanna see this freakin movie!
The sun is a newspaper :) I sent in about the fans not being happy after a second screening .. it was on yahoo :/ I just want to see the film .. NOW:)
YEAH! This is EXACTLY what i was talking about! The Sun is like the Evil Rita Skeeter and the Daily Prophet, screw them! They're just trying to put HP down because Twilight is pretty big now, they think that HArry Potter is dying away, lol.
I personally feel the Sun isn't a very reliable source ... reports are more believable from the Guardian or Times ... but from the trailers and such the movie is looking good so far :D ... Can't wait :D ...
Wait wait wait. Quotes from the screening from Chicago? So they said it wasn't good?
Did anybody actually take the Sun's "reporting" any bit seriously? From the numerous things I've heard about it, nothing the Sun says can be trusted. Also, I almost never trust people's reviews from screenings, and I absolutely never trust movie reviews (in newspapers, magazines, on the net, etc...). I always just watch the trailers, read the descriptions, and make a decision to see it or not.
I wonder what bad things people had to say about it? Not very reassuring... whatever I just want to see it too! I mean sometimes when I come away from a HP movie seeing it for the first time, I'll be like, OMG they didn't put that part in! or something. But really, at this point I just want to see it!!! Stupid tabloids (or newspapers) playing on our fears...
the dun just loves punking ppl...grrrr they suck!!
I agree with Ravenxl7. Plus, we already knew that there was going to be a lot of romance! We already knew that most of the memories have been cut! It's just tabloids jumping on whatever story they think will gain attention. My local tabloid, the Herald Sun, reported on the Sun's report. I would never trust the Herald Sun with the truth- a couple of months ago, they that the HBP potion book lead to information about Voldemort's past, and that Harry would fall in love with Hermione. Don't believe everything you read.
Wow, what a surprise. people aren't alright with the movie. thats only happened, what, like every movie that Warner Brothers has ever made. Get with it people.
liar, liar, pants on fire...
HOPEFULLY half blood prince is better than order of the pheonix. i thought the 5th film sucked and unfortunately david yates is back to direct the last movie. he better do a better job.
First fo all we have already heard several times already that this movie is going to be more lighthearted and have more romance in it than the previous movies so why would those "supposed" viewers even be surprised? To me it looks like it is going to be good and other than Deathly Hallows, it was my favorite book because it was so funny and Harry was especially funny in it.
You guys, all the quotes they used were from two people from Ain't it cool news, and they're book purists. Everyone else said the film was great
seriously!. wtf?!
