The Mechanimagus Moderator suggests (not having consulted the others):  Okay... I guess we should put spoiler space re the trailer, unless we're just going to say: "Wow, it looks cool.  I have to see the movie!"

"Wow, it looks cool.  I have to see the movie!"




Only kidding.  I'm still working on seeing a non-choppy version of the trailer, so I've missed some details.

A few comments:

McGonagall isn't wearing her glasses!  Is she?  Otherwise, Maggie Smith looks just as I'd hoped.

Snape looks fabulous.  The Great Hall looks fantastic.  The music sounds great.  I'm almost wetting my pants with excitement!!!

Why does everyone keep saying they've lightened Tom Felton's hair?  That's his natural colour (see the 'blond' pic I posted in the Movie Cast files). He looks like he's lost some weight for this part.

Interesting that they made one of the teachers non-human: the one that looks a bit like Yoda from Star Wars?  I don't think that's Flitwick (it doesn't look like Warwick Davis for a start) - it has to be Binns.

Harry and Hermione look adorable.  I love what they've done with Hermione's hair - she looks positively evil.  Like many others, I think Ron looks too squat and round-faced.  I'm prepared to forgive this glitch, as the casting is so spot on in other areas...

BTW, the voiceover voice sounds to me like an American version of a British accent - perhaps it's Richard Harris having spent too long in the US!?

Oh.... I can't wait.  I really can't.
