Do you think he was signaling the start of the competition? (probably the dragon?). I?m so excited for the movie!!! And the new book! But it makes me nervous when I hear that Mike Newall ?cut out the bulky subplots of the 700+ page book? to make it into a manageable movie. I want it all in! Was someone saying in an earlier post that they think Dobey, Winky and the whole S.P.E.W. Thing was cut out? I know Hermione always gets lots of airplay, but I thought that was a particularly amusing part of the story (especially Harry and Ron?s reaction, and how mad she?d get at them!). But I suppose in the grand scheme of things, it is a definite small subplot.

Apparently JK is okay with the Nigel character; maybe they use him to move some of the story along. It'll be interesting, that's for sure. I can't wait for the movie. It's my favorite book. So who's Nigel and where does he fit in, I wonder? Neville must be the one to give Harry gillyweed, because there are photos showing Matt Lewis standing by Dan, both of them in costume for the second task (well, Dan is, anyway, and Matt's in Hogwart's robes) standing by the edge of the lake. Odd thing is, Fleur appears to be in a little boat, while Harry's on the shore. But these photos are taken from across the lake and show crew people, etc. I LOVED the clip showing Harry swimming! Amazing! I thought he'd be swimming with his hands and feet like a frog, not doing the "dolphin" swimming thing. That's a very hard way to swim (I tried it once, failed spectacularly!). He must be one of the most physically fit teens in the UK to be able to do those stunts. That clip struck me so, I barely noticed the dragon in the last clip, and the image of him swimming (the Second Task is my fav., and GoF is my fav. book) stuck in my mind so strongly, I had a lot of trouble getting to sleep that night!! Veritaserum has the best high-quality, large picture video that I've seen. DanRadcliffe.com has screen caps. I haven't minded Harry's hair being long in the movie shots we've seen, but the one they used for the commercial, yikes, he looks awful! But then again, Emma's hair usually looks bad for these interview things too -- somebody should tell her that her hair looks painted on, the way she parts it from low on the side then "waves" it across her forehead. Ah well, teens and their hair. Rupert can't see out of his. I guess they're all normal! I suspect the producers had them grow their hair out (well, Rupert's was just like that and they told him to leave it, or so I read somewhere -- maybe here??) so they'd look good in the water -- but then again, the twins hair has grown out, and they're not in the Second Task, so maybe that theory's "all wet," LOL!

Ah well, teens and their hair... Yes, not to rag on poor Emma, but she looks better with bangs. Emma seemed to fit the bill as ?book Hermione? in the first, and maybe 2nd movie. Actually her hair was more crimped than ?frizzy?. But then again, she doesn?t have buck teeth either! Funny how the directors saw fit to make Neville wear prosthetic teeth to make him more goofy looking, but not Hermione...I really get the impression from the books that she?s not supposed to be very good-looking (at least that?s what Pansy Parkinson told me!! :-) And yeah, I really liked Dan?s hair in POA.

Eastern Daylight Time, HPFGU-Movie at yahoogroups.com writes: Yes, not to rag on poor Emma, but she looks better with bangs. Emma seemed to fit the bill as ?book Hermione? in the first, and maybe 2nd movie. Actually her hair was more crimped than ?frizzy?. But then again, she doesn?t have buck teeth either! Funny how the directors saw fit to make Neville wear prosthetic teeth to make him more goofy looking, but not Hermione...I really get the impression from the books that she?s not supposed to be very good-looking (at least that?s what Pansy Parkinson told me!! :-) And yeah, I really liked Dan?s hair in POA. Shortish, but spiky on top. Valerie I thought Hermione's hair looked good in PoA -- kind of spiral curled, parted in the center. It's EMMA's hair that bothers me, although Hermione's hair is supposed to be bushy, not spiral curled. She's not going to have enough of a transition from Hermione to "Yule Ball Hermione" for the boys to not be able to recognize her. If she'd gone from "first film Hermione" to "Yule Ball Hermione" in looks, yeah, that would be a visual shock to the boys. Cuaron did the movies a disservice by making her too pretty (Emma's a pretty girl - Hermione isn't supposed to be, not until the Yule Ball after she's had her teeth fixed and puts her hair up for the first time). And poor Neville -- they made him wear shoes two sizes too big and they put things behind his ears to make them sit out more, as well! And as crooked as Matt Lewis's teeth are, he didn't really need a dental appliance, poor kid! (What do Brits have against braces for their teeth???) As for Harry's hair -- I liked it a lot in PoA, and I like Harry's hair from the stills I've seen in GoF -- it's *Dan's* hair that's weird-looking in the GoF interview shots shown in the ABC commercial for Saturday's show. And boy, what an awful pic they chose of him to use as the still for showing the trio being interviewed -- his lips tight together in a thin smile? And his hair's a lot lighter -- too much time in the 20 foot tank?? It looks dry and nearly frizzy. *HE's* getting *Hermione's* hair, that's it! heehee. I also don't understand why the producers allow the kids to show up in what I would consider "play clothes" (mostly the boys -- Emma dresses a bit nicer) for interviews. Rupert's usually in holey jeans and both boys are wearing well-worn t-shirts, from the looks of them (the graphics are soft and look as if they've been washed many times). It's nice to let them be comfortable, and the early days of Dan being in a suit with his hair combed Pierce Brosnan style wouldn't look right for him as a teen, but still -- even rock stars dress a bit nicer than that for interviews a good bit of the time. I do wish Warners would consult with us before presenting *our* kids in a less-than-perfect light!! heehee Yes, I'm a dreamer. . . Lynda "The cat's among the pixies now."

I've been on a Kingdom of Heaven recording bit and I've noticed how Orlando Bloom is going the opposite direction (from bright colored/mismatched clothes to black, black, and more black with occasional suit jackets). If Dan was to get an American agent, s/he will 'correct' British nuances. {snort} I guess I don't mind the 'I rolled out of bed and grabbed laundry off the floor to wear' look because they're... guys.

Yes, I think Dan's hair looks great in the movie -- it didn't look as good in the interview clips as it did in the movie, IMO, but I do like it long.

If you think about it, what > we've seen on the first teaser has very little in the > way of CGI.>>>>> I would say that this is probably the most practical reason the teaser trailer doesn't have a lot of the big, spectacular scenes like I think the graveyard will be. I'm studying film in school and one of the things most of my professors say is to do the big things first that need to be done in post (IE the dragons, mermaids or back in CoS Dobby or in PoA Buckbeak..just for reference) and then the smaller things. I think a great deal of what will make the graveyard ominous and what not will be the smaller details that you might not even realize are CGI at first (like shadows etc...) <<<<<>I also think you're right that they'll want to build > up to that scene, rather than revealing the climax of > the movie in the first teaser.>>>> I agree that the Climax likely won't be seen in the trailers until the film comes out. Despite the facts that the books have been available for a while, they still want to keep the look and details underwraps.I remember when CoS came out someone leaked details of the production/story on the net and it was a big concern to many while others thought well the books have been out. I think it will be in the later trailers after release (think along the lines of when Star Wars Episode Two came out and you didn't see like Yoda fighting until after the movie came out...then everyone knew this was the most awesome part and the producers made that into a trailer).

I guess I figured that because we've seen previews of the Horntail and the maze that the CGI effects were mostly done....but I don't know much about how movies are made. Maybe they just did those bits for dramatic previews. I do agree that they'll have to tone down the graveyard scene....or at least emphasize the battle of the wands versus the very (to my opinion) frightening rising of you-know-who.

The graveyard is the big surprise. There's not much they could show of it without giving anything away anyway. I guess just a quick exterior shot, but anything with Voldemort or death eaters would be too much.

You never know with a franchise if media attention will wane, but I think that interviewers and personalities are more willing to go with the Harry Potter stuff since there's more to talk about with the kids now (I always thought it must be such a challenge to interview a kid and make it really interesting). And the kids are much more articulate now. Anyhow, I adore how soft spoken they are. It's almost surprising and refreshing though back at the first film it did make interviews tough. One of my favorite Dan-isms, was when he appeared on Conan O' Brien promoting PoA (The whole episode is priceless). He's talking about the singer from the Distillers and he says how big of a crush he has on her. He was so sweet about it and then he wanted to pull the Walker Texas Ranger Lever (which of course Conan had to mention how Dan pronounced Lever). The boys and Emma all seem so down to earth and it feels like adult actors throw that phrase around for like all of their child co-stars, but I don't think it can always be true.

SSSusan: They did do a brief intro, Valerie. IIRC, that's where they showed a snippet of each of them from movie 1, movie 2, movie 3, and then now (which is especially stunning with Rupert, who's changed tremendously). Then they basically just said, "Enjoy the show." If you go to The Leaky Cauldron or Mugglenet, you can probably scroll back a few days and find links to screencaps from that opening sequence. I liked that Filch & the Kwikspell scene, too. The stuff which always surprises me that they deleted were the really brief mentions of Justin F-F and Colin C. as being Muggleborns. That's a fairly big point to the story, I think, and in the version which was released in theaters, those bits were cut. I also appreciate seeing Harry wrestle a little with "Who *am* I? Could I really be the Heir of Slytherin?" in the extended version.

I do rather like the _look_ of things. And it sounds like Dumbledore's actually going to talk to Harry at some point, unlike the PoA movie (he wasn't really talking to Harry in the Hospital Wing scene in PoA, just coyly dropping hints for Hermione, IMO) However, in the clip of Harry and the Horntail, it's pretty clear that Harry is standing on the ground trying (unsuccessfully it seems) to avoid being struck by the dragon's tail. I don't recall that Harry is on the ground at all once the Firebolt arrives, until after he's gotten the egg. So what exactly have they done in this scene: ditched the Accio Firebolt! entirely? Decided it worked _too_ well for Harry and not well enough for film--didn't put the hero in enough danger--so had him lose the broom at some point? Or could he be waiting for the Firebolt, just a lot closer to the dragon than he does in the book?

I know most of you saw the GOF trailer by now, and perhaps the ABC special with the GOF clips and interviews. First of all, I think that the kids were dressed o.k. Hey they're kids! I think when it comes closer to November, they will present themselves more professionaly. I also must say that I think they have all improved greatly in their interview skills. Especially Rupert. I think it is better when they are interviewed individually. When the trio is interviewed together, Emma and Dan end up doing all the talking. They have all matured a great deal, and Rupert shows more confidence. Secondly, in the GOF trailer and clip there is shot showing Harry and Ron sitting together and glaring menacingly at Hermione who is sitting at another table at the opposite end of the classroom and glares back at them, with a smirk. Whats that about? Thirdly, my theory to the above is that Hermione tricked them into sitting together during the period when Harry and Ron have a falling out(before the first task) Lastly, have you all checked out the HBP contest on the main HP for Grownups page. There have been some wild theories posted.

I hope you're all right! I haven't seen any of the behind the scenes clips, just the theatrical trailer that is available on the web. And in that Harry seems to be _standing_, at the bottom of the rock quarry-like setting for the 1st task. When he tries to avoid the tail, there's no sense that we're seeing Dan pretending to be on a broom. He's hit by the tail (a glancing blow) and lands face down on some jagged rocks. At that point they show a crowd reaction scene with Hermione gasping, then go back to Harry staggering to his feet and turning toward the dragon, which proceeds to breathe fire at our hero. No blue mattresses here! This still suggests to me (everyone's hopeful comments very much appreciated nonetheless), that Harry isn't on the Firebolt for the whole of the task. I guess I'll hold out for the idea that this all occurs _before_ the Firebolt arrives, just to add drama to its arrival!

It's more visually exciting and up close than him flying on a broom the whole time. I am pretty certain he will end up on the broom at some point in the film, but from a cinematic standpoint, it would be a blander scene with all CGI (him on the broom with dragon) - this way, we get to see Dan running around and having close calls with the fire and slashing tail ;-) Cindy From patientx3 at aol.com Sat May 14 03:10:46 2005 From: patientx3 at aol.com (huntergreen_3) Date: Sat, 14 May 2005 03:10:46 -0000 Subject: GOF, Interviews, HBP In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Sabrina wrote: >>Secondly, in the GOF trailer and clip there is shot showing Harry and Ron sitting together and glaring menacingly at Hermione who is sitting at another table at the opposite end of the classroom and glares back at them, with a smirk.

I do rather like the _look_ of things. And it sounds like Dumbledore's actually going to talk to Harry at some point, unlike the PoA movie (he wasn't really talking to Harry in the Hospital Wing scene in PoA, just coyly dropping hints for Hermione, IMO) However, in the clip of Harry and the Horntail, it's pretty clear that Harry is standing on the ground trying (unsuccessfully it seems) to avoid being struck by the dragon's tail. I don't recall that Harry is on the ground at all once the Firebolt arrives, until after he's gotten the egg. So what exactly have they done in this scene: ditched the Accio Firebolt! entirely? Decided it worked _too_ well for Harry and not well enough for film--didn't put the hero in enough danger--so had him lose the broom at some point? Or could he be waiting for the Firebolt, just a lot closer to the dragon than he does in the book? I don't mind them tightening scenes like this up, but I hope they don't completely change Harry's strategy.

Joj pointed out that she took Harry's "I don't know" to mean "I don't know how to describe it," rather than that he doesn't *know* Rupert well.

I've just looked at The Leaky Cauldron's site and they posted a message Dan sent to DanRadcliffe.co.uk in response to this interview -- here's what he said: >> Page from _DanRadcliffe.co.uk_ (http://www.danradcliffe.co.uk/) forwarded a message from Dan Radcliffe to us this morning, regarding the interview we posted about last week: I usually do not make any comment on postings on websites however, I have been made aware that a simple answer I gave in an interview to Weekly Reader re my relationship with Rupert has sent people into a maelstrom of speculation. It has shocked me that the words "I don't spend much time with Rupert" has been interpreted in so many grossly inaccurate ways. FACT: I like Rupert, I get on with Rupert, we are friends and when we are on set together we have a good laugh. We don't spend much time together off set - because there isn't any!? Those of you who are familiar with GoF will know that there are many scenes in which Ron doesn't appear? Also, I am still at school and when I am not on set filming I am in tutoring and when Rupert is not needed for filming he is not in the studio.

That was a VERY pivotal moment for Harry. After the whole whirlwind stress of being thrust unwillingly into the dangerous Triwizard Tournament, then seeing Cedric get killed, Pettigrew get his arm cut off, and mixed with Harry?s blood to have the evil Lord Voldemort, murderer of Harry?s parents, come back to life, then see his parents ghosts...the poor kid holds up through it all, then collapses, weeping, into Molly?s arms...it was a fitting end, was it not?!

Well, according the Weekly Reader article of last week, one of the sets that the reporter saw while at Leavesden was the gloomy Riddle house, so unless they cut it out of the final movie, they at least 'filmed' something with the Riddle house. Of course, it could be backdrop for the graveyard scene at the end - wasn't that near the Riddle house?

Argh, my book > memory is fading again ;-) > Cindy Barb now: I thought I had heard that the movie was opening with the World Cup? I agree that the Molly-hug is a TERRIBLE thing to cut! Let's just hope that they don't give the hug to Hermione! The graveyard scene had to be at least relatively close to the Riddle house, because Daddy Riddle's bone was used, and they were buried in the Little Hangelton graveyard (GOF, pg 4, Am. ed.). On page 636, it says "They were standing instead in a dark and overgrown graveyard; the black outline of a small church was visible beyond a large yew tree to their right. A hill rose above them to their left. Harry could just make out the outline of a fine old house on the hillside." Since the Riddle house is described as being on a hill overlooking the village (page 1), I am assuming that the house described is the Riddle house. So I guess that could be the only time the Riddle house is in the movie. But I am hoping that the whole Frank Brice thing/Harry dreaming it is still in the movie-just maybe in a different spot. It seems like a lot of trouble to go to, building the Riddle house only to show it in the background of 1 scene. GOF is my favorite book-I cannot wait to see the movie! I know it will be very different from the book (as were the others), but hopefully I can get past that!

Since we saw the World Cup sets (the tents, etc.) we assumed it would open with the Cup, but there was no confirmation on it. I believe this discussion was around the fact that the Dursleys were cut, so we knew the movie would not start at Privet Drive. I agree that it seems like a lot of trouble to build the Riddle house just for background of the graveyard scene, but then again, this movie had the largest budget of any movie ever made, so I guess it's possible ;-) I do hope they have something with the old guy in the house and the snake, etc., but you can bet we won't 'see' Voldemort in that scene because it would ruin the big reveal later in the movie (even though he hasn't gotten his body back in the early scene, it would still reveal the villian too early, I think).

Early photos show Arthur, the twins, Ron and Harry, Hermione and Ginny walking, on their way to the Portkey spot. Then there are the many photos of the campground, and a mention of the World Cup stadium in some interview article I read a while back. And a recent interview with "Viktor Krum" has him saying he flies in both the World Cup and on his team (???). "Cedric" doesn't get to fly in this film, I think (Robert Pattinson, who plays Cedric, mentioned flying and Quidditch in his interview -- he and Stan what's-his-name who plays Krum were interviewed when they were found together coming out of a restaurant or something recently -- check Leaky for the link). Anyway, Pattinson (sp?) mentioned flying, but what he said was a bit confusing, so I'm not sure if he actually plays Quidditch in the film or not -- maybe the one game they show is Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff? Oh, wait, there was no Quidditch in Harry's Fourth Year, was there? Anyway, the interviews are there (via Leaky), which means the World Cup is there as well. Check them out. Ah, here's the link to make it easier: _http://www.empireonline.co.uk/site/news/NewsStory.asp?news_id=16825_ (http://www.empireonline.co.uk/site/news/NewsStory.asp?news_id=16825) On the OoP front -- there's an article on Leaky today talking about Harry doing a "James Bond-type chase scene" on a broom flying down the Thames! The location manager is having trouble getting all the 17 governmental districts to agree to let them film there -- they want to include shots of all the "recognizable" things along the Thames. But when would Harry be doing a CHASE scene along the Thames??? He should be riding a thestral to the Ministry's Visitor's Entrance with his five friends -- what's up with this idea???? Or do you suppose he gets separated from his guard on the way to Grimmauld Place the first time??? Ideas? Lynda "The cat's among the pixies now."

I recall some mass hysteria with some big tents and Harry trying to decide which way to run. Plus I read the interview with the young man playing Krum. I think that will be an exciting scene to watch. I am disappointed in no Molly, Bill or Charlie. I looked forward to seeing the hug scene - oh well, I hope she is back for the OotP film as I really want to see them all at Grimmauld place and St Mungos. I will probably get lynched here but...as for cutting out Bertha and Frank Bryce...if they have I personally don't think I will miss them. I mean, I enjoyed those scenes in the book but if they chose not to show the dream scene and then don't have those two come out of the wand in the graveyard scene. It won't upset me. However, if they don't have the wand regurgitating the people killed (i.e. Cedric, Lily and James) then that will be disappointing. Frank and Bertha are not really vital to the plot (other than mentioning her in passing as the way they got Crouch Jr into Hogwarts - it can all be left out - IMHO). But I really think we need to see the wands connecting - it adds to the understanding of Voldermort and Harry's connection. At least opinion it does. One other thing I think I have noticed that appears a bit different in reading the interviews and seeing clips of the film...the Hermione/Krum thing. I know in the book, he is attracted to her and though she goes to the ball with him, I never got the impression that from her point of view it was a mutual attraction. I thought she was flattered but did not fancy him. In one interview Emma said Hermione was swept off her feet. Then in the scene where she is talking to Harry and Ron, Ron says something like Krum is only with her to get to Harry and she looks upset as if she actually likes Krum. That will be interesting to see if indeed she has a thing for Krum - it is a little thing but still another change from the book. PS: So since this thread started as a we will miss seeing Molly, Bill and Charlie does that mean no one will be missing Percy? ;o) Theresa From artsylynda at aol.com Sat May 28 21:06:57 2005 From: artsylynda at aol.com (artsylynda at aol.com) Date: Sat, 28 May 2005 17:06:57 EDT Subject: [HPFGU-Movie] Hermione and Krum in GoF Message-ID: I think it IS shown in canon that Hermione is flattered by Krum's attentions. She'd RATHER it was Ron (he's so thick!! Bless him!) but she's happy SOMEBODY's noticed she's a girl, and someone like Krum (international Quidditch star, complete with fan girls) would certainly be a "catch." She stays friends with him -- and I think (is this fanfic contamination??) she and her family went to visit him in Bulgaria over the summer, didn't they???? Rats, need to re-read the beginning of OoP to see if I'm confused from reading fanfics or what. But anyway -- Dan says Harry believes he's "in LOVE" with Cho, doesn't just fancy her, so the director deliberately "intensified" everyone's feelings, from the sound of things.

Puzzled, Michelle I believe he's supposed to be "Nott," another Slytherin in Malfoy's gang (and his dad's a Death Eater). I don't know why they didn't have Goyle there (he was the one who was missing) in some scenes. And that scene in the snow -- logistically, Harry would have had to be running in circles around Nott to hold his scarf and spin him the way he was -- they had the "circle" wrong -- if Harry stayed in the center of the circle and spun Nott around, Nott would be racing in a huge circle, not leaning back while the ends of his scar spin around HIM. heehee. Yet another PoA mistake! For a "who's that boy" that nobody has been able to solve (to the best of my recollection), who's that heavy black boy in Gryffindor? And if they wanted those lines said by a black boy, why not give them to poor Dean, who had nearly no screen time?!

It would be cool to see it with Star Wars and would make since with a similar type of audience but I haven't had the time or opportunity to see that film yet. Besides when the POA trailer came out we heard it was going to be with Loony Tunes (which I had no desire to see and my sons were sort of interested but willing to wait until it came to the less expensive theaters near our house - which is how we see films normally unless of course it is HP, LoTR or something that REALLY must be seen) so we went to see it because after all we could see a preview of Harry with the goofy Loony Tunes movie. However, there was no preview so me being extremely disappointed as I would not have taken the time or money stopped at the customer relations booth and was told that it is actually at the discretion of the theater which previews go with which film. I said I was really bummed and would not have come so he gave me a free popcorn coupon. So it is not just WB but the theaters too who decide. I guess the only way to assure you will see it is to ask the theater prior to buying a ticket. Maybe then they will add it. Guess it is worth a try.

A bit macabre, yes, but there's always the possibility of going to a PG-13 rating. They will probably have to for OotP, and there is enough disturbing material in GoF that it will totally depend on how they handle it whether they can stick to PG. Star Wars finally went to PG-13, even though most of the "bad" stuff was off camera and not too graphic. I almost suspect they put in just enough violence to get the PG-13 rating to make it more believable that it was going to be "dark". BTW, finally took the kids to see Star Wars this weekend (yes, the PG-13 rating did worry me, so I waited for other parents' input - and it would worry my with HP too, but I have no qualms about playing hookey from work to preview HP by myself ;-)) and they had a nice trailer for Disney's Chronicles of Narnia, due out this Christmas. It looks good. AND it's nearly 3 hours long - WHY can't they do that with HP???

It bugs me that they added this kid in there too. The lines he said should have went to Dean or Lavendar. Anyone!! And was he a 3rd year? Because he was in all their classes, unless they let 4th years in, but wasn't in the dorms. Boo.

What what the point? *cries* akh pipes up: I have no "insider" knowledge, so this is my pure speculation, but I rather presumed that Josh and Alfred were unavailable for some scenes, due to school or other unavoidable conflicts. We know the Trelawny scenes were some of the last scenes shot, plus the kids might not have been able to come back for pickups, if they shot any. I'm not sure about Josh's schooling, but Alfred attends a very exclusive London school, so I can seem them insisting he be present for certain key activities. Plus, shooting schedules rarely stay on target. Why the specific boy in the Divination scene and the Dining Hall scene was given those lines is still mysterious. akh, who should be grading papers, and who hopes none of her students finds her out by reading this! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I hope there aren't more new kids in > GoF. While I'm with you on the extra Gryffindor kid who was never named and who didn't seem to serve any purpose, some people have actually been quite excited about the addition of the "stringly Slytherin" in the PoA movie. I think the reason for that is the possibility that it might be signalling a greater role for Theo Nott in the future. Many seem to have earmarked Nott as a likely candidate for the infamous, hoped- for "Good Slytherin."

Like seeing an HP trailer one time then having it replaced with a Bewitched one. Generally there are certain universal trailers that deals/contracts have been made to tie to certain movies. At other instances the theatre has the rights to certain ones within each movie (more so than they will show) and splice in different ones. We had a long conversation about this in film class after we all saw Star Wars together and we mentioned how previews were different at different showings. If a preview is shown after the lights go down it'll usually be on all showings because its attached to the movie's real itself. I don't think theatres particularly care, however, which previews they show because from their standpoint the money obtained from people coming to see the movie alone does nothing for them. They lost more money from giving you free popcorn than from refunding you're ticket (Since theatres don't get money from ticketsales but rather from concession etc...ticket money goes to the studio). With something like star wars alternating previews can be helpful to studios cuz more people see more previews when going to repeat showings.
