I wanted to warn all that have not seen the movie and the US crowd that will not get to attend opening weekend (such as myself) of a very unpleasant experience I had today.

 

As I was doing some housecleaning today, I was allowing my 4 year old daughter some extra television time, she was watching the Cartoon Network.  So a commercial comes on, normally I do not pay attention, but... this is a commercial for a the Harry Potter COS Balisik set.  The commercial itself was funny, the set is supposed to represent the chamber and there is the Harry action figure being moved around by a hand and a voice over says:  oh  the balisik (or something to that effect).  This started to make me laugh, because it was almost campy reminding me of the old Saturday Night Live sketch "Mr. Bill"  where the mysterious Mr. Hand voices over a playdoh figure.

Anyway, I look up to see how much worse it can get and what do I see but a scene from the movie with the actual Balisik, not the plastic figure being moved by a hand!  The only thing I can not see on the Internet ruined by a commercial!  

I wanted to warn all that want to be surprised when they see the film to turn away from this advertisement, in fact I am boycotting all HP merchandise ads in fear they will ruin another aspect of my movie going experience.

Be forewarned.

Thanks
