Well um ..
no. Just no.
The pictures are great, absolutely amazing, but like people have pointed out, we'll have seen the whole films in stills before it actually comes out. Which is pathetic.
I for one am going to wait a week before it comes out. No way am i going to wait for the DVD, but WB do NOT deserve any box office smashes after this PATHETIC MONEY GRABBING decision. They are outrageous, they don't care about the fans, all they care about is the money in their fat pockets! I hate them so much, HOW can they DO this to us?
It's the OOTP wait all over again, i wrote an entry in my diary on the 4th of August 06 saying how i was incredibly disappointed i had to wait until July 07 for the movie, and it WAS such a wait! Now we've got to go through all that again! GRRR!
If any fans go to see this movie in the first few days, i am highly disappointed in you! :'(

I agree with LemonFaerie, TheOtherMinister, and Shadowscan.
Warner Bros. are doing all Harry Potter fans a BIG disservice by postponing purely for their SELFISH CAPITALIST GAIN, and MUST change the date if the are to avoid 1000s of angry fans and boycotters (which includes myself).
I know the movie industry is very different from the literary one, and one cannot nessesarily influence the other but since it's J.K. ROWLINGS STORY, not Warners, wouldn't J.K. Rowling be able to intervene on behalf of her fans? If so many people are going to boycott the movie now, that would certainly affect HER as well now?
Ultimately it comes those stupid dollar signs for the movie industry, and I don't believe JK Rowling will be happy to see the company she entrusted with her beautiful story taint it like this and treat it as a pure commodity.

I thought Narcissa was supposed to have Fully Blonde hair, younger, very beautiful. Did they change the actress. That doesn't look like the one they said they picked. I think it was Helen McCrory. She was what I imagine Narcissa as this person seems to old to be Narcissa, though she does look like a 'witch'.

Narcissa doesn't look as thin or blonde as I'd imagined. And yeah, throwing us pictures won't make us happy about having to wait until July for the film...

The casting for this movie is poor, the release date is a disappointment. I'm not interested in your images at this point.

well im still goin to see it in thearters but not on opening weekend. I DO NOT WANT TO GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT!! and i agree with everyone here who dosnt like the actress who palyes narcissa. Y IS HER HAIR NOT ALL BLONDE!!??? SHES NOT PRETTY AT ALL!!!
all WB wants is money from the hard core harry potter fans!!! they dont care if its a good movie or not. there adding in there own scens and leaving out scenes they dont want.
Also the delay in a decent trailor for the movie!!!! More pictures are not going to make me feel better at the slightest! I agree with the boycott. I cannot believe they are doing this to us!!! ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS OUR MONEY!!! And there replacing Hps origional spot with twilight?????!!!!! I JUST CANT BELIEVE IT!!!!!!! I WILL NOT LOOK AT ANYMORE PICTURS!!! Everyone else should do the same because more pictrues are gona come online and my the time the movie comes out its gona all be ruided!!!

Well nice pictures... really, but i'm getting tired of this (we obviously all are). Unlike many, HP is a really weak spot for me and i know that no mather how much i don't want to see the pictures i still will... Can't contorl my self.
They should stop sending the pictures and they should move back the date but i don't think that they will...
All these great angry posts here could maybe get someone to change their mind but no one will see this, we better DO SOMETHING MORE!!!

I recommend going to the Howler website for the Howler campaign, which is brilliant. If everyone would send ten Howlers each we would seriously overflow their in-boxes. I am posting the link again in case you missed it, as well as WB's address and phone numbers, and a sample Howler letter from the Howler campaign that is succinct but keeps our dignity as HP fans so they don't discredit us because people send in letters full of foul language or physical threats. Keep it clean but purposeful and we will make them see the full power of the Potter fandom.
Here is the info:
Howler campaign
In the Howlers to WB write - "You make us wait 8 months, we'll make you wait 8 months and 1 week. Your opening weekend will be a failure. Harry Potter fans are very loyal and very dedicated and VERY angry at you. Delay our movie for your profit margin, and we'll kill your opening weekend. - DA.

My first impression is that bellatrix doesn't look nearly so crazy, i guess that can be put down to having recovered from her time in azkaban, but still i loved her when she was all crazy....hehe

Leave it to WB to muck it all up AGAIN!!! What is with Narcissa, and the blond/brown hair, she is more brunette than blond, and she is really kind of old looking, Bellatrix looks much younger than Narcissa.
All I can say is WB can take a flying leap, like many others have posted we are going to get the whole movie in pictures they release before the FINALLY get around to releasing the movie. Save your time, effort and MONEY WB, since we all know MONEY is the bottom line with you. We HP fans are not going to be pacified with a few lousy pictures from a completed movie that was SUPPOSED to be relased in just a few months time. Sorry we can be bought that easily, release the movie in Nov or shove your pics where the sun doesn't shine.
