Okay, so, I am horribly ashamed about not posting for this long. I started off my LJ with great excitement and plans to "post every day!"
And then God pointed his divine finger at me and said "Thou shalt be too busy to LJ."
Apparently he also declared for me to rhyme. All the time.
Not that it matters, anyway. I mean, I'm on, what, three people's flist? Everybody who is reading this please comment to boost my self-esteem.
ANYWAYS, on to more important matters than my self-respect.
Like HARRY POTTER.
HARRY POTTER.
IT'S IMPORTANT.
HARRY POTTER.
Yesterday I saw the new trailer for the first part of HP and the Deathly Hallows. It's epic. You should
watch it. Like right now.
Also, I searched the word "hallow" on Dictionary.com and it turns out it's a verb. There is no noun like it, except hallower. And Spell Check doesn't even approve that.
Either way, here's the definition:
-verb (used with object)
1. to make holy; sanctify; consecrate.
2. to honor as holy; consider sacred; venerate: to hallow a battlefield.
I have also been telling all my friends excitedly about the fact that Bill Nighy is in it. They get excited, too, and a little confused, because they understand Bill Nye, as in Bill Nye the Science guy. Then I have to explain it to the life-owning people with small words, like Davy, Jones and Pirates.
To get back on track about the trailer, you'll be glad to know I've picspammed it for your convenience and enjoyment. Order now and receive a FREE bag of popcorn.
Feel free to take these screencaps. You don't have to credit. After all, it's not like they belong to me. They're not icons I spent all my free time on. Yet.
I would have had more, but the stupid vid is so fast and I can't pause it for a screencap because then it has a giant "Play" button on it. If that doesn't bother you, go make your own.
So, on to the picspam.
THIS is Bill Nighy. He's awesome. Very happy to see the accent, epic hair and weird mouth formations back.
Talking about self-esteem, why do we not just stare at battle-scarred, pensive Emma Watson for a while?
Seriously, my head is spinning with icon ideas right now.
Aw, it's so cute and sweet and heartbreaking and powerful and sad. For those of you crazy enough not to have watched the trailer or guessed the scene from the book, they're staring at his parents' grave.
And then he almost gets killed by Voldemort.
Just to make his day more eventful.
Sooo pretty. I love cinematography.
No idea about what scene this is from.
But it's pretty, and it's Harry, and that's all that matters.
We all hate him. We all love him.
We all want to ask him, "can you smell that?"
Good? Bad? Psycho?
I don't care, his voice is epic.
And so is his cape/robe/dress/wings.
What is that thing, anyway? Cause I want one.
Umbridge is back! great hating times have returned, my friends!
And is that the Pius Thicknesse? Cause I always saw him as short and peevish.
And yes, I just used the word peevish.
Teehee.
So, from left to right, my best guess:
Real Harry, Fred and George (of course, not sure which is which), Dung (Mundungus Fletcher), Fleur Delacour, Ron, Hermione.
This scene should be great.
"They are coming." DUN DUN DUUUUUN.
By the way, to the right of Mrs Weasley, what is up with that hat?!
Here Hermione is in a perfectly modern dress and the one woman is wearing crazy wizard clothes? Isn't it supposed to be the norm?
Also: GUH lighting
It's the wheat field again!
So whatever happened to The Burrow?
Cause it wasn't actually supposed to burn down in the 6th movie.
You have no idea how long it took me to get this one.
But I'm extremely happy with the end result.
Again, I hate IMDb for that stupid "play" button.
This wasn't supposed to look this harmless. He's just having a huge fight with run, believe it or not.
It's not supposed to look like he's smiling.
Actually, he looks cheerful.
Stop looking cheerful, Harry! Be more depressed and angry!
That's better.
Have fun falling off that bike from a few thousand feet, cause that's what you're about to do.
It's the swooshy cape thing again!
Long live Snape!
Oh, wait, he doesn't.
Oops! Did I not mention this may have spoilers?
Sorry about that one.
BWAHAHAHA!
Trying to get that last Snape one, I always paused and got this, so I just had to cap it, too.
Believe me when I say he doesn't look any better in any of the other clips of the trailer.
Look, I know you're camping, but can't you seriously pour some water over your head for a shower with your wand? Dude, you're a wizard for a reason.
WHOA! Where did Zedd come from?!
This is epic, but it kind of reminds me of Wallace.
For the WIN.
It's in the trailer. It's official.
If they postpone it again like the last one, I will sue them.
I will also sue them when I can't touch the wand that will surely be sticking right in front of my face.
Also, I'm searching for IMAX theaters close to me.
Cause that would be epic win indeed.
I have also already made 2 icons, because of sheer excitement.
I realize they're dark, but seriously, have you seen the
trailer?
Please credit when you use the ICONS.
As I said, you don't have to for the screencaps.
