I'm not liking that one of the quidditch kids is Harry's number 7.
But Tom Felton...all I can say is wow, he is just gorgeous.

Hey everyone... I haven't read all the comments but did you notice that the wand Harry is holding in the shot of him and Prof. McGonagall in Dumbledore's office is Dumbledore's wand!!!! I'm willing to bet that this scene is not soon after Dumbledore... you know... *tears....

Wow, that's definitely the elder wand that Harry's holding, but there's one problem. In 'Deathly Hallows' the elder wand is discovered by Voldemort in Dumbledore's tomb (the wand being a major part of the final book), so I wonder how the filmmakers will pull themselves out of that hole. We can always hope that they place it back in Dumbledore's tomb before the funeral.

I can't wait to see Slughorn in action. This movie is going to be one of the best so far. I can tell that just from the pictures!

FINALLY! It's like wow! I really want to scream!!!! I'll settle with quietly squeeing. I really hope the HBP Trailer comes out soon, but this is a start. I also have some critism, Hermione looks blond, what is Lavender doing in potions?! More importantly what is Neville doing in potions?! and I HATE the quidditch robes! I don't want to complain, cause I LOVE all of the pictures, But why do they need the helmets? I know they might not wear the helmets while they're actually playing, but stil... Don't get me wrong, I usually don't complain about the movies. I'm super excited for the movie!

And RON!!
Oh my gosh finally! He looks pretty awesome although I think it's a bit stupid how they changed the uniform! But finally we see him in Quidditch!
WEASLEY IS OUR KING, WEASLEY IS OUR KING, HE NEVER LET THE QUAFFLE IN THAT'S WHY GRYFFINDORS ALL SING, WEASLEY IS OUR KING!

GodricsGirl says:
The Quidditch uniform Ron is wearing looks goofy because that picture is taken at tryouts. Did you notice all the people behind him? They are probably using old Hogwarts equipment. I can't imagine that being the final uniform.
Excuse me while I make a rambling complaint. For those of you who don't want to hear my whining, scroll down now.
Where is Slughorn's giant belly and bushy mustache? Why is Neville and other Gryffindor students in the potions classroom? Why can't they just leave the things that are in the book in the movie? I have no problem with strategic edits for a purpose, but come on already! It's like back in GOF witht the dress Hermione wore to the Yule Ball. Yes Emma looked beautiful but the dress was BLUE in the book! And don't even get me started on the film version of POA...
And last but most importantly why, oh why has no one working on these films ever considered giving Daniel Radcliffe a pair of bloody GREEN CONTACT LENSES!!!!!!As mentioned in evry single book and really nailed to the wall in DH, his eyes are pretty flipping important in the overall turn of events!
I know that in the grand scheme of things these things are probably not that big of a deal, but they are so simple. I just don't understand why things that are so doable are left out or changed.
Thank you.
I'll be okay now.
Just wanted to say some of that for a very long time.
Long live Harry!

Degamo,
This is all speculation on my part, but I envision that this image is a glimpse of the scene from the book where Prof. McGonagall pulls Harry into Dumbledore's (now her) office to ask him what he was doing with Dumbledore. What is likely is that Harry picked up the wand (probably along with the fake Horcrux) and took them with him into the office where he then leaves the wand and keeps the locket. Then... as you point out... it gets buried with him. Again, this is all speculation but it seems like it might fit.

You went through those pictures closely, didn't you? I mean, except you no one else noticed that Neville shouldn't have been in the Potions class-room.
And I'm really not sure how they'll incorporate the bit about Harry's eyes being green in DH. They'll probably ignore the whole point -- as always.

YAY! Pictures! Ron! QUIDDITCH! I'm so glad that's staying in! Draco looks so much older now... Hehehe, and Ron looks so cute in the pic of him with (what I think are) the Cauldron Cakes... keep 'em coming!

Love the pics, especially Luna's! Hmmm... that's not how I pictured Slughorn... And why was there all those people behind Ron in the last pic? How many people are on the team? But oh well, I'm really excited now!

Frm the pictures it appears they are sticking with the book but it take seeing the movie to see if they really did or not. The pictures are making me more excited to see the HBP on screen. Already have the date marked on my calendar.

Finally, hi-res photos! This movie really does look awesome, I can't wait until we actually get a trailer!
What nerve, WB letting ABC Family show the first 4 HP movies and not do those "on the set" interviews and show us new stuff from the next movie! The movie's only 4 months away, I hate to ungreatful, but I want more than pictures!
