The movies look to be following the ever darkening arc of the books, if this first trailer of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is any indication. Great casting of young Voldemort, the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end while watching it.





















































































































Awesome! Can't wait for this movie! I agree on the casting for young Voldemort. I've actually heard that the actor is Ralph Fiennes (Voldemort)'s nephew. I thought that was cool!

Thanks Jenn, I didn't know that --he's Hero Fiennes-Tiffin -- do we know if he's Joseph's son? And where, btw, did Joseph Fiennes go? I'll never forget him in the first Elizabeth.....

I took my daughter and her friend to see *Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants* last night; *Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince* was one of the trailers we saw ... the YouTube clip is good, but it was unbelievably dark and effective on the big screen!

Argh, I took my daughter to see Sisterhood 2 today as well, but due to a slow concession stand worker (grrr) we missed all the previews! I'm really bummed not to have seen this one on the big screen.

Ha, I was going to mention about the young actor being the nephew of Ralph Fiennes, but it looks like Jenn J beat me to it.
BTW, how was the Sisterhood movie? I've read the first three books and enjoyed the first movie, but think I may have to wait for the DVD on this one.
