Voices From Krypton


source ~ tlc.com



"Fantasy Adventure. Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates! And then there’s Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.”

Yay new thread!

I've always wondered though...is it too early to open a DH movie thread? We seem to talk about that in this thread a lot, and now we're starting to get news about it...

Yeah, I guess now that we officially have a director, release date and a few facts about the film, a DH film thread is in order.

Well to be fair, DH will be the most anticipated of the movies I assume, and there is so much to cover about it, and HBP is nearly upon us already. Its leapfrogging HBP a bit but thats ok, because everything leads up to a huge and brilliant DH movie

After reading HBP I knew that the movie would be awesome, but that feeling about a movie was tripled after reading DH

A new DH movie thread has been opened for anyone interested in discussing that film further and of course this thread here will continue to be for HBP discussion solely.

Sorry if this question has already been answered, but does anyone know if Ralph Fiennes is coming back? Because I don't know how they'll do the scene were Voldemort returns to Hogwarts to apply for the DADA job without Ralph. It was a powerful scene. I think it was then that Voldemort, after going through all those transformations, realizes that he still fears Dumbledore.

He's not needed. Either they've cut out the part where young adult Tom Riddle goes to Hogwarts to apply for the DADA position or they've cast someone younger for it.

I'm not sure but I think the only two Voldemort scenes that have made it into HBP are the oprhanage and Slughorn's memory. At least that's the only ones we've heard about and the roles that have been cast.

I'm sure Ralph would come back for DH, no one else could ever be as brilliant as he is as Voldemort. He's talked about how much he's enjoyed working on the films, so I'm sure he would want to come back and finish it off.
