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.

    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet by Ivan Jenic The Amazon Echo Show 11 is currently $149.99 on Amazon during Prime Day, down from $219.99. That's 32% off and $70 saved on Amazon's newest mid-size smart display (purchase link below). As its name suggests, the Echo Show 11 features a 11” Full-HD touchscreen, which is a decent upgrade over the Echo Show 8. It offers 60% more viewing area, which makes a genuine difference for recipes, calendars, video calls, or any other scenario where the smaller display can feel a bit cramped. The Show 11 is built around Alexa+, Amazon's more capable AI assistant that can handle natural conversation. You can make reservations, order groceries, and find content based on your preferences, instead of always having to give it precise commands. There’s also the Omnisense technology, which adds ambient awareness, allowing the device to trigger routines based on temperature, presence detection, or visual cues. Smart home control is built in without needing a separate hub, and the home screen doubles as a photo slideshow when not in use. Taking all of this into account, the Show 11 is a perfect smart addition to your kitchen counter or living room. At $149.99, this is a strong Prime Day buy for anyone already in the Amazon ecosystem or looking to build one out.
