Trailers at HBP

[amedia]

Here are the trailers that we saw before Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. It's a strange mix - four movies aimed at elementary-school kids or younger, one aimed at teenagers (Fame) and two for grownups (2012 and Sherlock Holmes).

The Fame ad started out looking like Harry Potter - "there's ANOTHER school where kids learn to fly" or something like that. I was wondering if it was a special trailer just to run in front of HBP!

Sherlock Holmes looked the most like one I'd like to see - G-Force looks darned cute (though I'm afraid they may have put all the good scenes in the trailer) and Where the Wild Things Are looks intriguing. Loved the book.

We saw similar ones - 2012 (Interesting!), Fame, Shorts, Cloudy w/a/c/o/ Meatballs, Sherlock Holmes, and Where the Wild Things Are.

First - 2012. Ah, Roland Emmerich. Loved him since Stargate, followed through Independance Day, and now this. With him, it's all about the massive scale of his destroying planets. Also, though we only got a few glimpses of the cast, it's *extremely* impressive when you look it up on IMDB. There was one boy that I could NOT place for the life of me and Anndie looked him up - it was Liam James, aka BABY SHAWN!!!! on Psych. That pleases me greatly.

Second - Wild Things. I'm not sure why, but just the trailer alone made me tear up. There's just something about seeing the boy in that costume - that absolutely PERFECT recreation of his costume from the book, with the crown and the whiskers. Gawd. Then the camera work and the way the trailer was set up - wow. Powerful and emotional...I really want to see that now. Good job, trailer guys - you win. *clings and weeps*

Third - Sherlock Holmes. HOLY CRAP IN A HANDBASKET is that SLASH HEAVEN. \o/ I cannot WAIT to see that, because SLAAAAAAAAASH. I was never in the previous Holmes/Watson fandoms, but I strongly suspect there will be a massive resurgance of it emerging from this film.

Wasn't it something? I think I know what you mean. It looked like nothing else I've seen on screen.

Sherlock Holmes. HOLY CRAP IN A HANDBASKET is that SLASH HEAVEN.

Okay, so that's not just me and my filthy mind. Glad to hear it! ;-)
