PotterWatch


4 days left for the blockbuster summer movie of the year!
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is slotted for release on 15th July, after being rescheduled from the initial launch date- 21st November 2008.
Yes, the act of postponing the film caused outrage among us fans, having waited eagerly, starved of Harry Potter for well over a year. (Except for The Tales of Beedle The Bard, which was fantastic and just in time for Christmas!)
So finally, after two years, Warner Brothers delivers the movie adaptation of the penultimate book in the Harry Potter series in what critics acclaim as the 'best yet of the first six movies'.
Harry Potter movies have quite recently been notorious for disappointment, quite understandable due to the pumped up hype and the intense speculation that these movies are scrutinised with.
However, I was quite thrilled when the tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes measured a solid red bar of 96% and a 7.4 rating- which if you are new to the 'rotten tomatoes concept' is a stupendous feat.
So with hopes running high along with the adrenaline and the gigantic promotion and premiering of the film, I, along with the millions of Harry Potter fans in the world, wait on tenterhooks for midnight of 14th July to draw closer and arrive with a breathtaking bang!
