Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Sneak Peek 1 from ABC Family

[Camy415]

Twighlight I'll give merits for becoming a popular book practically over night but Harry Potter Has fans devoted to defending the books as well as the movies... I am one of the HP fans.

[sakamoni12]

rite wit you

[WeezeTheJuice12]

i was so disopointid basicly al it was was a crapy love story with like 3 action scenes

[powerfullchip]

this was a really good movie, but the ending was pathetic. It practically ruined the rest of the film.

[etcos1]

how? the ending was perfect, it really set up the story line for the final two films.

[powerfullchip]

it just lacked any intensity or explosiveness. It did set up the last movie well; the rest of the movie built up to a great finale, but the end turned out quite lame.

[masternick972]

The age-old debate:

Substance vs Style.

Christina vs Britney.

Harry Potter vs Twilight

[cellulitelove]

Twilight??? twilight????? seriously?

As Stephen King said:

"Both Rowling and Meyer, they're speaking directly to young people... The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good."

To me, Twilight is a book targeted exclusively towards young girls (ages 10~16). The series is not as epic nor as brilliant as Harry Potter. ABSOLUTELY NO COMPARISON PERIOD. To compare the two series is a serious insult.

[betterthanbooks]

@masternick972

But Christina and Britney has neither substance nor style.

Though Christina does have talent, she just makes the same sounds over and over again.

[Tbrayniggahh]

alright, this entire debate is stupid.

buttt... twilight was gay, and harry potter wins by a shit load, because it's not a shitty movie, like twilight.

hate to break it to you, but that's the way it is.

how can you even compare these two? there's no similarity, and twilight sucks.

and then swallows.

[Unzaba]

Why are people talking about twilight on this movie?

Someone should delete all of these. We get it. Everyone has there own opinion. But I came here to chat about the promo and here I find people talking about twilight? Fck. Do you people ever give it a rest?

[icequeen911]

exactly!!!

besides harry potter is way better then twilight!

[Unzaba]

Pretty much.

[beautifuldisaster13]

If there was no Edward Cullen, Twilight wouldn't be as big as it is. Whenever I ask a fan why they love Twilight they always reply something like "Because Edward is so hot!" At least Harry Potter has more substance but I was a Twilight fan for a little while. I just think that Twilight is pretty much a self-insert book. People want romance and Twilight lets them imagine themselves with Edward.

[gypsygirl403]

yeah i like twilight but harry potter is better i actually have talked to someone who said twilight was better

[fantasyoasis]

Well i am also a twilight fan and Harry Potter fan.I would like to say that Harry Potter has had the spotlight for quite some time. The series has won numerous awards and has won the hearts of many fans. But now it's twilight's turn to have some spotlight too. If i am correct, there will be another series of novels that grow fans into liking it and we will be having the same debate as we are having now. So i dont think we should make it into a bigger problem.

[TheWatthegames]

twilight sucks

[ilovered333]

this one looks really good! just by watching trailers and sneak peeks, the graphics and "magic" is turning out to look AWESOME! i really do think theyre going to include more from the book and think about the fans. and after this one comes out, imagine the pressure on these ppl for making the 7th one! i mean it better be good! the deathly hallows was by far the BEST book out of the series!

[musicgirl5151]

i like twilight but harry potter wins by a landslide

[Persephoneia01]

I'm so excited :D

[PatriciaViegasx]

even though I love twilight, nothing can compare to Harry Potter

[andmildred]

sooooooooo so so so so so so so trueeee

OMG SOMEONE WHO FINALLY UNDERSTANDS!!

[marcelin101]

i totally understand u

i've been tryin 2 persuaded my friends dat its true

twilight may b good but they don't have dat much action lik harry potter

twilight can't even compare 2 da books

I LOVE HARRY POTTER

[xxcrossbonezxx]

exactly!!

[twilightfreakluver]

i know i just cant believe all the spotlight twilight is getting i mean i love twilight but i have been glued to harry potter since the beginning

!!!!!!!!!!!

[KahlaCullen]

I have to disagree:( i started reading the harry potter series in 3rd grade and it was my life!! my whole room was harry potter and i started crying at the deathly hallows release party because i was so happy.. but then twilight came into picture and i read the first three books in three days!! i would probably love harry potter more if edward cullen was in it.. haha

[kattyen]

do they even have the half blood prince book that harry finds in it? LoL they havent mentioned it yet.. O.o

[shannon17sp]

I LOVE DUMBLEDORE!

[abc123Janet]

COPY HARRY POTTER FANS:In Twilight, it's either team Edward or Jacob, NO IT'S TEAM FRED OR TEAM GEORGE !

[MusicIsMyLife39]

thats a dumb idea, fred and george are a team u cant put them side by side for comparison

[undrwatrgypsy]

and one of the twins dies in the last book, and so does hedwig...MAUAHAHAHAHA! should of read the book!

[broockbackmontain]

oi e aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiii

[ArcheryChat]

I hate how people say that you either have to like Harry Potter or Twilight, well, I LOVE BOTH. their both great, yes they pushed harry potter back for twilight, which annoyed me, but twilight was good, but i'm still really looking forward to harry potter.

[abc123Janet]

I agree with you 100% : )

[AssasianKiller]

do not read this if you don't want this movie to be spoiled harry brakes up with Ginny and dumbeldore. get killed by snape sorry if i spoiled it you were warned

[eissturm1]

....And if you got it spoiled by this comment, don't forget that there is a seventh book and there will be a seventh film which can change nearly everything! ;)

[aanggang36]

theres actually an EIGHTH film as well, since the producers or writers or whatever decided to make the deathly hallows into two parts to include the whole story. but i hate their title - deathly hallows part one and deathly hallows part two. they could at least name part two "the elder wand" instead, since that was rowling's original choice for the book's title.

[olliedabomb999]

Yeah they are making it in 2 parts but that dosent mean its the eigth harry potter

[FireofSekhmet]

Hmm, it looks like they're going to fabricate a bit.

...Good. Frankly the sixth book was kinda too fluffy and angsty, not enough substance. But in a movie it needs better pacing. Yates is fantastic so I'm relying on him. Say, any chance John Williams will come back to do the music?

[JackieMagenta]

Almost zero chance. Yates has always worked with Hooper on his projects, and I doubt he will get rid of him. I like Hooper's score though, so no problems with me lol.

[IIharry07II]

belatrix lestrange was cool men!

[xxxdeathqueenxxx]

Shes my favourite character

[xxxdeathqueenxxx]

Am I the only one who thinks Daniel Radcliffe is gorgeous?

[FireofSekhmet]

Lawlz, nowadays. =P Funny, you never hear about HP anymore, it's all "OMG TWILIGHT!!!1" I think Dan's chin is a little weird but he's pretty hot anyway.

[xxxdeathqueenxxx]

Lol, I clearly never meant when hewwas a kid, & yeah your right, the tweens & adultys alike seems to like twilight despite the fact that its shit

[FireofSekhmet]

Twilight IS crap. You only need to notice that they're vampires who sparkle and play baseball. That's all it takes to realize that it's ridiculous. =P

[DanielleMcOrmond]

Agreed. Twilight glorifies unhealthy relationships while trampling all over well-known vampire lore.

[0MrsD0]

I agree; I tried reading Twilight..Hated it!! couldnt get myself to go beyond chapter 2but Harry Potter I can read and reread and never get bored (:

[peppermintpixie2000]

ruperts hotter

[MaryIsMoi]

so annoying was meant to come out in november 08 :( stupid idiots

[1LadyM7]

I know, just because of Twilight!! what a stupid movie!

[Bastinou31]

Bellatrix apparition !!

[blackhorse1988]

WTH they pushed it back just because they wanted to the big hit of 09? Don't push it back damn near 6 fuggin months! Release it January 1st goddam it!

[Voldemort477]

edward and bella ruineda bestseller the best book eveerrrrrr harry potter seriously geeeezzz it's just a vamp flick!!!!!!

[IIharry07II]

this gonna be wicked movie!!!

[FriendofFoot]

I am so totally going to the midnight premier!

[inuyashafangirl1]

July 17? Geez.

[FunkBish]

It was supposed to be released this month originally, December, I believe, but they pushed it up to July for whatever reason.

[sauron9990]

the reason was because Twilight was coming out either the same day or the same weekend. Fucking vampire chick flick ruins the greatest book in the series movie premier.

[misskpa]

no, they pushed it to july 09 cuz the black night came out this year and it was a big hit so they wanted a big hit film for 2009, so they chose HBP.

[Serenity119]

I think you meant the Dark Knight, but yea you're right and it kinda sucks that we have to wait.

[gurjeet96]

ya i agree with u ...twilight it. Now I have to wait 6 damn months tp watch it.

[20twilight12]

Honestly I heard it had to do with Daniel being in the broadway show because he wouldn't be able to attend premieres and what not.

[xxRAWR69]

I just thought it would be so it was in the Summer holidays in America. Which, if it is true, kind of sucks, considering for me it was going to originally come out in the Summer holidays.

[20twilight12]

Oh and yes I am a fan of Twilight but I am also a huge fan of Harry Potter.

[lilpup101mg]

wheeee im as excited as a drunk in a bar!

[HarryPotterArt]

^^.... For everyone

[ipwnu789]

first comment!! i cant wait for this movie!!!
