Last night in the US, the DVD and Blu-ray went on sale for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 and fans of the movie were given a sneak peak of a clip from the final movie which is released in November and sees the final chapter of the movie which stars Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson. This clip follows the news that the first trailer for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 will hit before The Hunger Games when it’s released in March.

Both the shots of the clip below come from footage filmed on mobile phones or the like in-store but no doubt the clips will be officially released online in the coming days.

Thanks Collider for finding these. Check out the clip below which features a very pale looking Bella!

I hadn’t really thought about this before but now that Lionsgate own Summit Entertainment, that means they own both The Hunger Games and Twilight. News has just broken from Lionsgate that we will be getting the trailer for the final movie in the Twilight Saga which stars Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson will debut with The Hunger Games when it hits in March and I don’t know about you, but i can hardly contain my excitement!

No doubt the trailer will hit online before we see it at the cinema but this is exciting news for all those Twihards out there desperate to see what the final movie looks like.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 hits UK cinemas November 16th and is directed by Bill Condon.

It seems like only yesterday that audiences were left sobbing into their sorting hats as the credits rolled on the final Harry Potter film and though the imminent Blu-ray release may ease the pain somewhat there’s no getting away from the fact that there is no more new Potter to come.

Well, that’s not completely true, we have some of the sweepings from the cutting room floor from the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and while it won’t stoke you to your core it’s nice to see a little more context to the preparation for an important moment in the film.

This scene comes early in the film as our three heroes are planning the raid on Gringotts bank. Enjoy…

Total Film had this one, and top darts to them.

Following on from the visual effects featurette that we posted last week look at Hogwarts getting destroyed, Den of Geek have put up this nice new featurette from Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 which takes us behind the scenes of The Room of Requirement that we seen burnt to a crisp in the movie. I’ve embedded the clip below which is great!

“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2,” is the final adventure in the Harry Potter film series. The much-anticipated motion picture event is the second of two full-length parts. In the epic finale, the battle between the good and evil forces of the wizarding world escalates into an all-out war. The stakes have never been higher and no one is safe. But it is Harry Potter who may be called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice as he draws closer to the climactic showdown with Lord Voldemort . It all ends here.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is directed by David Yates , stars Daniel Radcliffe​, Rupert Grint​, Emma Watson​, Helena Bonham Carter , Jim Broadbent , Robbie Coltrane , Warwick Davis , Tom Felton , Ralph Fiennes , Michael Gambon , Ciarán Hinds, John Hurt , Jason Isaacs , Matthew Lewis, Gary Oldman , Alan Rickman , Maggie Smith , David Thewlis, Emma Thompson​, Julie Walters​, Bonnie Wright​ and is released on DVD and Blu-ray December 2nd. You can pre-order your copy here.

The final film in the epic Harry Potter saga,  Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 swept across the world this summer and brought to an end the story of the Boy who Lived and his snake nosed nemesis.

Of course the story isn’t quite over with the home entertainment release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows due in just under a month and we’ve got our hands on a clip from one of the extras that will be available on the Blu-ray to share with you today.

The battle of Hogwarts was a striking finale and the effects team, who have done some excellent work in the previous films, had a mammoth task in bringing this final fight to the screen. The clip which follows breaks down some of the shots for us along with a commentary from director David Yates.

Here’s your clip and once you’ve watched it, click here to check out our interviews with some of the cast that we conducted earlier at the brand new Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio Tour London. You’re going to love it!

This week sees the eighth and final Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 hit UK and US cinemas. To mark its release Warner Bros. have released this five minute featurette looking back at all the movies over the past 10 years.

Check out the featurette below.

At the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One, we weren’t left with a cliff hanger, so much as half a movie. After 146 minutes of wizarding action the story finished at what’s often termed ‘the mid-point low’, the moment where all seems lost, and the audience, as well as the hero are emotionally deflated.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 picks up moments after that, with a quick reminder that You Know Who got hold of That Wand, and a shot of a very small gravestone, then we’re back with Harry, Hermione and Ron, in a house, on a beach. Even when compared to other ‘part twos’ like Kill Bill Part 2 and the second Matrix sequel this is a bold move, as it essentially renders the film unwatchable as a movie in its own right – although it would be utterly baffling if anyone did choose this as their one and only Potter experience, and frankly anyone who does so is either an idiot or some sort of masochist.

For the rest of us, the started-where-it-left-off opening is something of a mixed blessing, as from the opening conversation, the film recalls events from the previous picture as if we have just seen them. This meant that, in spite of my being reasonably familiar with the franchise, and having seen Deathly Hallows Part One on several occasions, I still found myself struggling to keep track of who was where, what they wanted, and at times what was going on.

Worse than this though, the cold-start creates a massive pacing issue, as we jump very quickly into the action without any build up: Within minutes of the house on the beach, our three heroes have to break into Gringotts bank, in  what amounts to a magical version of Ocean’s Eleven (or rather, Potter’s Three and a half). This sequence should be full of tension and excitement, but because the film’s director, David Yates is relying upon the emotions we are feeling from a different movie to carry this scene, it feels almost mechanical. Indeed this is the film’s biggest flaw – because all of the setup is contained in a separate movie, it becomes very hard to invest emotionally in what is happening on screen.

The ultimate result of this is that the final stand-off between Harry’s Hogwarts Horde, and Voldemort’s forces of evil falls a little flat. The stakes are simply too low, and no amount of mad dashes through ornate corridors, energy blasts from wands, or even character deaths, no matter how well handled, can up them to a level where we feel truly engaged. That’s not to say the film isn’t without engaging moments, some sequences work very well, and peppered throughout are nice exchanges between extraordinarily well developed characters, but as a film it fails to maintain that throughout.

But of course it isn’t a film. It’s HALF a film. Consequently every issue identified in this review is a factor of how recently you watched Part One. If, like me it’s been several months, this it’s going to feel somewhat emotionless. If you only watched it recently then any, and possibly all of these criticisms should be only minor niggles for you at the very worst. That said, rather than risk feeling let down, find a cinema showing them both as a double bill, and enjoy one whole evening of Pottermania. Let’s face it; it’s your last chance.

  If seen on it’s own ***~~ (3/5)

But I strongly suspect after watching it as part of a double bill  ****~ (4/5)

With all the recent activity on the Potter franchise’s marketing front, it would be easy to believe all of the primary cast present and accounted for.

One character yet to receive his close up – until now, at least – is the sun-starved dragon diligently guarding Gringotts’ highest security vaults.

Warner Bros.’ (via LiveforFilms) have finally put this right, however, with a new banner depicting Harry, Ron and Hermione’s great escape from the wizard bank.

It really is an awesome image, as epic and momentous as any of the studios other pieces of publicity.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II arrives in theatres 15 July 2011. Just in case you missed the memo(s).

Warner Bros. have released a nice new artistic poster for their new movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 which shows a rather angry looking Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) flanked by his partners in crime, Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint). The poster comes courtesy of LoveFilm. Shame they’ve shrunk it down. Always nice to see these images in all their high resolution glory.

Really like the Wednesday edition of the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 posters that we’ve seen over the last two weeks. Today brings my favourite so far in the form of Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange.

Last week I put up the Lord Voldemort poster saying it was the final one. What I wanted to say was the final of the week but the title would have gone on forever!
