It looks incredible and there's only one thing I didn't like about it. So first, the things I'm really excited to see:
- The special effects for apparition look awesome! I know Fred and George did some apparating in Order of the Phoenix, but that was just a pop-in, pop-out sort of thing. This looks a lot better.
- I don't know how well the music in the trailer reflects the score for the movie, but I like the updated version of Hedwig's Theme.
- The books and the movies have done a good job of including humor amidst the dark and dangerous scenes, and Half-Blood Prince doesn't seem to be an exception.
- Scenes involving the Pensieve are always interesting. I love how J.K. Rowling uses the Pensieve in the books to give us background information, and it's great to see that carry over to the movies.
- There's a brief shot of Draco Malfoy looking at himself in the mirror. It made me think he was questioning what he was doing. I wonder if the movie will explore Malfoy's work with the Death Eaters and how he feels about it. I hope so.
And what didn't I like? We have to wait until July 17th to see the movie instead of lining up in theaters on November 21st.
