Love them! The one with Luna in the Spectraspex is a riot!
I'm glad to see that Ginny is looking a little cooler too, now that 
Harry is interested. Tho I did like the fact that she was always a bit 
eclectic in her wardrobe. Not unlike her mom. :-)
I'm wondering if the one with Harry and Hermione in the snow looking 
all morose could be Dumbledore's funeral? Although I read somewhere 
that they were not filming that scene. :-(     How can they not? I was 
looking forward to seeing the mermaids and other lake creatures hanging 
out in the distance; Harry getting P.O'd that Umbridge dares to show 
up; and of course the dramatic scene where the coffin goes up in 
flames. Did anyone else think that that was foreshadowing that 
Dumbledore (aka Phoenix animagus??) would come back to life, rise up 
from the ashes, in Book 7? Alas, no. When Dumbledore told Harry that 
people cannot come back from the dead he meant it. He knew firsthand 
after his bad experience with the Resurrection Stone.
There was kind of a strange blurb in USA Today yesterday. The headline 
read something like "The Movie Without the Book", and said that HBP is 
'different' in that it has to stand alone as its own entity since there 
are no more books forthcoming...didn't make sense to me. The movies 
still follow the lead of the books, no?

Anyhow...can't wait for November 21st!!!
