| | | Harry & Voldemort Forbidden Forest Deathly Hallows showdown scene aired at ShoWest
Brand-new footage from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was shown at Las Vegas' ShoWest convention earlier today. FirstShowing viewed the screening, hosted by Alan Horn, president of Warner Bros, and gave brief summaries of what they saw: Quote:
Yep, just saw the Quiddich arena burning down and Harry flying with Hagrid on his motorcycle - footage from Deathly Hallows. Looks AWESOME!
Quote:
I got chills seeing footage of Voldemort in Deathly Hallows without CG, just Ralph Fiennes with makeup & dots on his face. So frickin' cool!
Quote:
We saw a lot of him. In the forest looking for Harry. Then sitting down at a big table talking w/ Snape about Harry's safehouse.
If anyone was privileged enough to see the preview at ShoWest, or recorded it, please feel free to send the information in! UPDATE: Cinemablend released full details as to what was seen in the preview: Quote:
Ralph Fiennes' noseless Voldemort-- had dots on his face marking the future digital alteration that really makes him who he is. But they weren't just bold in what they showed us, but how they did it-- the first scene of the extended trailer was Harry and Voldemort's confrontation in the woods outside Hogwarts. Harry, bloodied and visibly terrified, approaches a cold Voldemort (flanked by Bellatrix Lestrange); Voldemort taunts Harry, "The boy who lived, come to die."
Quote:
We saw little bits of everything, from the seven Harry Potters escaping from the Dursleys house (totally surreal) to the attack at Bill and Fleur's wedding to the escape from Gringotts on the pale dragon and even Hogwarts on fire. With unfinished effects it's hard to really say how it all looks, though some of the most effective moments were the simplest-- Ron and Harry's fight in the tent, Harry visiting his parents' graves, running away from the Snatchers in the woods, Harry defiantly telling Voldemort that he stays alive "because I have something worth fighting for."
Quote:
[One] of the final shots was of Hermione riding a broom, by herself, escaping from a fireball that's likely the curse that Crabbe and Goyle set off in the Room of Requirement near the end.
UPDATE #2: Collider stated that the footage was about 4-7 minutes long, and also showed Rufus Scrimgeour, Harry and Ginny's kiss, and Harry and Voldemort's confrontation in the Forbidden Forest. Quote:
The footage started with Voldemort walking in the forest with all of his followers around him. He was looking for Harry. While I assumed the footage was going to be just from the first Harry Potter movie coming this November, I think the opening was from part 2 and it was from the big climatic battle between Harry and Voldemort!
So we see Harry coming towards Voldemort partly beat up and with a look of nervousness. It was then we cut away…
Quote:
Other bits of footage were Harry, Ron and Hermione in the forest fighting as Ron tells Harry that since he already lost his family his pain isn’t as important (or something like that). We also saw tons of pre-viz mixed in with shot footage like Harry flying with Hagrid and Voldemort chasing him with other Death Eaters. I also saw a scene of all the Harry’s from the beginning of the book. Other bits were the kids in London walking around, Bill Nighy as Rufus Scrimgeour, Harry and Ginny kissing, and so much more.

Oh my God...
My heart stopped reading this, and I completely froze... the Harry/Voldemort part gave me CHILLS (both parts), and I nearly screamed and freaked out.. just.. omg.. then I read the Quidditch Pitch.. burned.. and started crying, even though I was already tearing up quickly from just the description of the scenes alone.
Gah. -Wipes tears- I'm getting emotional because it's almost over. We're on the final adventure. No more HP after this. T__T I just wish I had been there to see it! XD Hopefully we'll get the clips on the internet as a "Behind the scenes" look or something, unless this means we're getting a trailer soon? :D

david yates has one final movie to reprieve himself. im not saying half blood prince was bad but the ending could have been spellbinding the shot of dumbledore conjuring the fire again was to short as was the final battle in order of the phoenix. i only hope that the final battle out does the lord of the rings final battle. the final part must be epic and spectacular and last for at least an hour. this final battle is what fans have been waiting for and dont want to be dissapointed. i just wonder if there gonna bring out an extended dvd of order of the phoenix where you get to see bellatrix and sirius duel coz i know they filmed those sequences and also in half blood prince where dumbledore says to harry im not worried im with you was also cut from the movie. at least mike newall tried to keep as much as he could in from goblet of fire and the final duel was amazing with harry and voldemort, but david yates seems to skate over the action parts with his versions of harry potter, even the dueling at the burrow which of course was not in the book was a little under done,. we should have seen remus and tonks and mr weasly blocking curses and firing them. i just hope that we get to see alot more dueling and battling and its not underdone in deathly hallows or i wont be buying the dvd.

i love it! Hogwarts burning, people dead and dying, families ripped apart. But for heavens sake, don't touch the hallowed turf of the quidditch pitch!

dont get your hopes up on these last two movies guys that way you wont be dissapointed if they dont live up to your expectations. alot of people were geared up for half blood prince and many were let down because of the huge cuts that were made to the final film. i wasnt let down coz i went to the cinema with an open mind knowing what cuts were being made and knowing that the book and movie are two different things and that the movie wouldnt be exactly like the book. as for the final 2 movie yeah there have been things added like the burning of the quiditch stadium but i think this will add to the action and drama of it all. im not opposed at all to these additions and its sounding like they are finally staying pretty faithful to the book this time. if they get this right it could beat lord of the rings for the most epic finale of all time. fingers crossed eh.lol

just because they never said the Quittich pitch was burning doesn't mean it didn't "happen." a lot was happening at once in that book. i think it's a good idea and can't wait!   Quote:

that's been confirmed like last summer. Goyle is doing the fiendfire and dying.

WHOA sounds amazing. Hell yeah it will be nice. Quidditch pitch burning down D: Tragic. Yeah a ton happens in the book, so they put it in two parts. Go figure. It's pretty smart though, people now have to buy the DVD of the first one. Or both – which is what I'm gonna do. Christmas present. I think the seven Potters escaping's gonna be pretty cool. Poor Daniel Radcliffe o.O |

UPDATE: WOW! This movie is going to be awesome. It's sounds amazing! I can't wait! But those are minor things which could have happened. Quote:
I think Hagrid and Harry flying over a burning Quidditch pitch is going to make a mind-blowing, jaw-dropping visual.
They happen at different points in the film. Quote:
it's about time that girl got on a broom for the films. But for OOTP promo photography, I feel like there's a shot of her on a broom...I think it was on a DVD.
Thing is, Hermione doesn't like flying. So it makes sense she only does it when she absolutely has to. Yeah, there was a promo like that for OotP. Quote:
OMG i know this is full of spoilers but plz SS can you hide it, that way when we are tempted to see this page the spoilers wont be right in our faces,
Most of these spoilers come from the book itself, which has been out for three years. Quote:
thinking that was when harry's journey from durley's to burrow...
It's from the fiendfyre scene. Quote:
They burn the quidditch pitch down? Why would they do that?
Because the school is at the centre of a war? Quote:
I just hate it when they add random things in the movie that are just pointless and aren't in the book.
I don't see how those are pointless, though.
