Another Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer

They’ve released another, longer trailer. I suppose it’s the official full length one, although it’s actually a trailer for part one and part two. It looks like the focus of it is material from part two though (weird choice IMO, but I’m not complaining *grin*). Anyway here it is:

The interesting thing is that it has [...]

Best Nude Scenes

Favourite Film Villains

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I - the official teaser trailer

I know I’ve supposedly posted the first teaser about 6 months ago, but the real teaser trailer (whatever that means ;-P) is this:

They use many of the same shots on both teasers, but the new one is somewhat more interesting :)
The scraps of feedback that have come through from a super secret maximum-security test screening [...]

Tom Felton’s career advances *grin*

Last week he won Best Villain at the MTV awards for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which I’m extremely happy about. His performance in that is definitely one of my favourite ever villains *grin*
