First of all WB has nothing to do with the rating process. Seccond of all the people who rate the movies are imune to violence so I am not surprised HBP got a PG rating.


Anyone remember Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian, this movie also got a PG rating and it was quite violent and scary and even showed blood.
I was disgusted by this for rating it PG the wrong audience will see this movie and the audience it was meant for would dismiss it solely on rating

I imagine HBP will have all the darkness of the book it is just a trend in the US
that violent movies get a lower rating because the raters are immune to violence.
