> Carol -
> I'm so excited that I actually know something you don't (I tend to
just lurk, because I learn so much from the normal posters, including
you)!  Konnichiwa means "welcome" in Japanase.  We had a 15-year-old
Japanese girl stay with us for 10 days back in November, and
Konnichiwa was the first word she taught us, so Dan must be
saying,"Welcome from Dan Radcliffe."

Carol responds:

Thanks, Betsy. I figured it meant something of the sort, maybe
"hello." And you're a "normal" poster, too, just not a frequent poster!

MusicalBetsy: 
> Very interesting trailer - lots of new lines, like the ones you
mentioned - I too was very surprised about Snape saying the line about
the Chosen One in front of McGonagall - and I don't remember it being
 common knowledge in HBP that Harry was indeed the "Chosen One" - at 
least, I don't remember everyone openly discussing it. 

Carol:

IIRC, the Daily Prophet was speculating about whether the Prophecy
(which it didn't reveal because no one actually heard it, the movie to
the contrary) meant that Harry was the Chosen One. Presumably, the WW
at large was speculating about the same thing. Remember Scrimgeour's
request to Harry to be a kind of mascot to the MoM to give the
Wizarding public a morale boost? (He didn't care whether Harry was the
Chosen One or not as long as people believed it.)

MusicalBetsy:
> Also an interesting response from Dumbledore when Harry asks if he
hired Slughorn for something other than teaching Potions.  

Carol:
I caught that, too. Of course, they're making a really big deal about
the memory, ignoring other rreason why Slughorn was hired. DD really
did need an able Potions master to take Snape's place who could later
fill the vacant post of Slytherin HoH after the DADA jinx (curse) took
its toll and Snape (whom DD needed for that year as DADA teacher) took
its toll. How convenient that Slughorn, whose memory DD needed, fit
the bill perfectly. (But the filmmakers have to simplify the
situation. It will probably look to them as if Snape got transferred
to DADA so that Slughorn could teach his old subject. The DADA jinx
won't even be mentioned, as far as I can tell, because they're only
using two memories--child Tom and the altered and unaltered Slughorn
memories. I don't think Voldemort's job interview is included.)

MusicalBetsy: 
> I too need to watch it again - it's hard to hear the english with
the Japanese going on at the same time.  But thanks so much for
bringing it to our attention!

Carol:
You're welcome. I'm just glad that someone posted it to You Tube.

> MusicalBetsy, who is excited that SOMETHING new is out concerning HPB

Carol:
Me, too. If only someone could put together all the snippets from all
the trailers and eliminate the Japanese voiceover!

Carol, now wondering whether the movie will offer any welcome
surprises not given away by the trailers (humor, terror, I don't care
as long as no one acts out of character and all the key elements are
in place)
