A new trailer for Half-Blood Prince was shown earlier today at ShoWest, an annual event held in Las Vegas to showcase new films that will be released in the coming year. Though many of the sequences have been released in previous trailers, there were new scenes throughout the teaser:

Quote:

Dumbledore also has a line of dialogue that definitely isn't part of the book-- "Voldemort has chosen Draco Malfoy for a mission." Remember that in the book, Harry spends the whole time convinced Draco is up to something, while everyone else thinks Harry is just blaming Malfoy again for something he's not doing. But if Dumbledore says straight-out that Malfoy is working for Voldemort this time, that could change a lot of the direction of the story.

In the book we don't know for sure that Malfoy is working for Voldemort until he shows up on top of the castle to kill Dumbledore. The movie seems to be focusing a lot more on Malfoy, based on shots of him in the trailer, so it might get a lot more interesting to watch him, knowing he's the bad guy.

Quote:

Harry shouting "Fight back you coward!" at Snape as he runs away from the castle, and little things, like Katie getting attacked by the cursed necklace or Malfoy's magical wardrobe that allows the Death Eaters to enter the castle at the end of the story.

We are currently inquiring as whether or not the trailer will be released to the public by Warner Bros, so stay tuned.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be out July 17, 2009.

i think personally they killed it if they are having dumbledore say what draco is up to, it should be left a mystery for everyone to figure out like with csi and law and order

But that line of dialogue bothers me...why do they always have to change things? Do they think that people won't understand the plot? :/

I agree. It really does bother me about the changes in the dialogue. Don't they know that a little bit of this and a little change in that, also changes the plot? Besides, JK's words are just as good, if not better. I wish they would stop that, but hope that they got JK's permission or feedback, though.
