Has a trailer been released for this yet? I remember reading IMDB or somewhere else that the trailer was coming out fairly soon. :|

No, no teaser yet or trailer its due very soon!

Why does Emma have a 'stache ?

You're going to incur Rappy's wrath there :p .

Scirwode

:wub: Bonnie Wright (Ginny)

Of course, I always loved Ginny from the very first scene she was in in the books, but whoever made that casting call is brilliant.

And best yet, she'll be making a much bigger appearance in this movie and the final movie.

That is one of the WORST teasers I've ever seen. Seriously, I mean I know people are really

looking forward to the movie (I am I know that much) but a 23 second trailer with one line of dialog that doesn't

really do anything but...well nothing? Bleh.

But then again, it's just a "teaser" so what should I expect yeah? :|

I just looked at imdb, and they are splitting up the deadly hallows into two parts. I guess this is good thing and not squeezing the story any further.

... except for the fact that, of all of the movies so far, Deathly Hallows has the most stuff that could be just cut right out, shortened, or would just happen to *be* short when shown visually rather than described. A whole lot of the Deathly Hallows is Harry and the gang sitting around and camping out, and all of that stuff could be reduced to a simple time-lapse sort of scene. It could very easily be made into one movie.

As compared with something like The Goblet of Fire, where something as huge as the Quiddich world cup is reduced to a single sentence ("Let the game begin!") and then cut to the after party. Even little details that play a *huge* part in the overall story, like Dobby's continual returns, were cut out due to time concerns. There are so many things they've torn out for the sake of keeping the movies down to a length they *think* people want, and that'll come back to bite them in the ass when it's time to write the script for the last movie(s).

It's funny how the books keep growing longer and longer, up until the 6th, but the movies actually get shorter. They've lost J.K. Rowling's blessing entirely by now (she was heavily involved with the first movie, and actually liked it due to the near perfect translation from book to movie). Now they want to split the last movie into two in order to make sure they don't have to leave anything out? When have they cared about that in the past? I'm sure that the decision was made mostly because two movies = two ticket purchases. They can double their money and prolong their paychecks.

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
