Wow, I mean just wow. Epic doesn't seem a big enough word does it?Last night saw the debut of the first Part 2 exclusive trailer, after the sneak peak released a few weeks ago. For me that meant waiting up, exchanging a few hours tossing and turning and hoping to fall asleep with using that time to constantly refresh web pages until the first trailer appeared. And then it did! Only in French ;) the Orange France website went and posted the French dubbed version of the trailer hours before the English version was meant to debut. I speak a bit of French so not a major issue, the new footage was immense, with glimpses of the battle and Gringotts amongst other spoiler-ific scenes I won't dwell on for those who aren't familiar with the story already.
The Engish version appeared online for the first time not long after, only to be taken down again, it still being hours before the clip was supposed to "premiere" on ABC Family. But they didn't manage to remove it before I'd seen it several times, so it's all good ;)
As the series draws to a close, this is one of the last times Potter fans worldwide will be waiting, waiting for that first glimpse of new footage, the dramatic music, the experience of your heart racing on the first viewing. It's nearly over, and so it's sad that this is one of the last times I'll have a day like this where I can talk to the world about Potter because everyone's seen the trailer, or sit and watch it over and over, pausing to capture those blink and you'll miss it moments.
But with rumours that this was just a teaser, and with months until the July release date, could there be another trailer on the way? Time will tell. For now I shall enjoy this one and relish every moment.
And my "thing worth sharing" today - http://www.hypable.com - the new website with news across fandoms from Harry Potter to Twilight to Glee, written by the fans, for the fans. It's awesome, check it out!
And because there hasn't been nearly enough squeeing in this post - *squeeeeeeeeeee!* TRAILER!
Until next time,
