| | | New Half-Blood Prince screening reports false
Over the last few days reports have emerged claiming that another test screening for Half-Blood Prince was held. The articles included references to the disappointment felt by some fans. Warner Brothers have confirmed that no such screening took place.
The only test screenings to have taken place for the film were held back in September last year, prior to the completion of post-production.

That's great news. But the damage has been done. If only the other HP sites out there were as careful as you guys.

I'm a bit skeptical... the reports were so bad that I'm inclined to think WB would say they were false. But I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Don't be rediculous. They can't hold another test screening because they are in the middle of filming DH. Yates can't still be on the post-production of HBP and be filming DH at the same time. That's why Cuaron turned down GOF because it would have meant he'll be working on the post-production of POA and filming GOF.
The purpose of test screenings are to test audiences how they like the film and finally add the final touches. HBP is completed, in the can, and is set for release. No set backs. No changes.

The purpose of test screenings are to test audiences how they like the film and finally add the final touches. HBP is completed, in the can, and is set for release. No set backs. No changes. I agree. Enough already!!! No more test screening!!! (fake or otherwise) Just get the dxxn movie in the theaters. This is really getting old. As for me, I'm getting to the point where, let's just get to Deathly Hallows already. I think I've seen enough of the HBP trailers and hundreds of pictures, that I feel like I've already seen the entire movie. I'm sure they'll do the same with DH and it'll ruin it. Just my honest thoughts. |
