A new teaser poster has been revealed for both parts I and II of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
The new advertisement portrays a dark nod toward the battle of Hogwarts. Looking out over the lake, we see Hogwarts castle burning, smoke billowing, walls crumbling- a scene of pure destruction.
Instead of the familiar format for previous films, this poster uses the term "HP7" instead of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". The poster supplements it's stunning imagery with an emotional reminder to us all: "It All Ends Here."
You can see the poster HERE. Please let us know what you think by commenting!

The Harry Potter fandom has done their best today to out-tweet the fans of the popular Twilight books and movies!
For every Twilight based tweet today on Twitter, Harry Potter fans responded en masse to make sure the Stephenie Meyer series stayed out of the top ten world trends on the popular website, Twitter.
Later in the day, Twitter seemed to respond by removing some of the more popular Harry Potter trends from the top ten list - seemingly out of nowhere!
"The microblogging site fessed up in the past to tweaking its algorithm to rid the trend list of Justin Bieber-related topics. Has Twitter inadvertently revealed itself to be a Twi-hard? Twi-tter? Technotica placed calls and awaits an answer. "
Whether or not Harry Potter fans were having fun or being vengeful to keep Twilight in the shadows on the opening weekend of their latest movie in the series, Eclipse; should Twitter have changed their algorithms to deny the Potter fandom their place on the list, if the allegation is even true? Will the Potter fandom face something similar when Deathly Hallows opens?

A Visit to the Theme Park
Posted By gnzlsgrl5 on 06-22-10 @ 3:27 PM - 3 comments - Link
I was at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter for the opening weekend and it was definitely a blast and I am happy to share my thoughts and give a description of the park. I had the pleasure of being in the background of the Today Show that was being filmed in the park before it was open to the public. I got to see Tom Felton and his girlfriend Jade Olivia Gordon (who plays Astoria in the epilogue), Warwick Davis, Michael Gambon, Matt Lewis, James and Oliver Phelps, Bonnie Wright, Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe all come into the park. I didn't get to talk to any of them but I do have video footage (still have to figure out how to get it on my computer) of all of them. I put up a long post on my personal blog about a what a walk-through of the park is like. You can access that post here.
