Photo Update: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Potter! Shazam! Potter! Shazam!
It's fantasy showdown in Hollywood! This upcoming awards
season, as the cinephiles debate Benjamin Button's wrinkles and
the continuing insanity
of Oliver Stone, the young and young at heart can sidestep the intellectual
hoo-hah with two major fantasy spectacles:
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and
Twilight.
Will Stephenie Meyer's upstart vampires knock those Rowling wizard kids off
their high horses? We'll see at some point! For now, set your peepers on four
new images from
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, out November 21.

sunsaz writes: on Jul 08 2008 04:38 PM I don't think Twilight will be able to steal any thunder from this film. Potter's guarenteed to make $200 million domestically at least. Until The Hobbit is finally ready to go, we probably won't see another fantasy film come close to the level LOTR and the other Potter movies have reached. (Reply to this) |

TheIceGhost writes: on Jul 08 2008 06:21 PM At absolute best Twilight will mirror the Spiderwick Chronicles' success - it's not going to touch HBP. I'm just hoping the new Potter flick doesn't feel as hackneyed as Order... I still can't believe how poorly told Order's last act was. (Reply to this) |

From what I can gather, Ralph Fiennes doesn't appear, but Hero Fiennes-Tiffin plays a preteen version of Riddle in the flashbacks. (Reply to this) |

~*Admiral Snowstorm*~ writes: on Jul 09 2008 02:20 AM Twilight is temporary scene kid trash. The difference between that movie and Half-Blood Prince is that one of the two movies will (presumably) get good reviews and respect among the critical community and audiences. The other will be forgotten within months after a critical panning and fade away quietly on DVD with little to no possibility of a sequel. (Reply to this) |
