Oct 27 2008New 'Harry Potter' Trailer is the Chosen One?
For most of my life, I've been operating under the assumption that I'm the chosen one. When someone calls and asks for the chosen one, I say, "Speaking." When the Red Robin offers a free sundaes to birthday boys and chosen ones, I say, "Free ice cream, please--the latter stipulation." But if this Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince international trailer is to be believed, Harry Potter is the chosen one. Whaaaaa?
As we all know, there can be only one, so what gives? I thought I was the chosen one. If it turns out I'm not the chosen one, I am so pissed. But besides including the news that I might not be the chosen one, this looks OK:

Harry Potter's really lost its luster for me ever since I moved out of my parents house and started having to worry about bills n' shit. Twilight on the other hand? I'm all there. I could use a good molesting by an undead Calvin Klein model right now.

you're welcome :)
I'm kinda hoping this movie will actually be good, unlike the 5th one.
Twilight the movie hasn't even come out yet and it's already annoying.

His head looks like a dollar store GI Joe knock off, god bless the complete disregard of aspect ratios.

It said "This Year" at the end. Wasn't this supposed to be pushed to the summer?

did anyone hear about that porno movie that came out based on Harry Potter?
I think it was called Hairy Twatter or something like that.
It's sad that the only creative thought coming out of Hollywood these days is in Porno movie titleing.....

Bearded wizard wielding a staff through fire in a cave? Short boy running through corn fields? ZOMG it's Gandalf and Frodo!

Sorry to hear that, I Watch Stuff guy, but perhaps it's not all bad. Maybe people will call asking for "one of many chosen ones" and there is nothing wrong with sharing ice cream... alright never mind, you know what you have to do: Kill Harry Potter and/or Hari Puttar. It can't be that hard. I hear most of the magic he uses in movies is special effects.

@2. I totally agree. I have been secretly hopeing that they would bring back the director of the 3rd on.

NO!!!!! I don't want to see that stupid girl kissing Ron. There were SO many other girls who auditioned for Lavender that were far less annoying. Still, it's not going to be as bad as when movie 7 comes out, and we have to watch Ron and Hermione.. uuughhhh.. I hate Emma Watson.

That inspired me to watch and/or read LOTR for about the 14th time.

@12: LOL, that was hilarious! The way you parodied those bizarre freaks of nature little Potter fangirls who for some reason think the ghoulish actor playing Ron is attractive! And the way you dissed the actually kind of pretty girls who are forced to share an on-screen kiss with that monster. That was great!
... it WAS sarcasm, right?

im glad it got pushed back to next winter (in Aus that is, summer for you guys north of the equator) maybe it means they'll release the second half of it alot closer to first half?
hopefully....
Snape is awesome, just admit it everyone, he's just the best

@11, It'd be great if Cuaron directed the last two

Unless your last name is MacLeod, you are not the Chosen One.
19. Grover - October 29, 2008 12:56 PM
Whatever. This movie's just a rip off of Hari Putar.
