Okay, this ought to be fun.

Since I'm having the day off, I caught up with my Potter news on MuggleNet and there it is, this awesome clip of ALL the deleted scenes in Half-Blood Prince.

Of course I'm gonna have some comments. ;)



Skip this part if you aren't into Harry Potter.

No comments except the annoying high pitch sound of what I can only assume is Lavender Brown's snigger. *makes quick movement of finger cutting against throat action*

0:29-1:25
"The map's never wrong!"
I agree but I can't help but notice Emma Watson looks grrreat here!

1:29-2:28

OMG OMG! RON HERMIONE MOMENT!! *goes into Ron/Hermione shipper mode*
@1:41-1:57
I just realise is that like a really long dolly track shot??
@2:23
Something fishy going on...

2:35-3:09
@2:52
How come Dumbledore's hair is so short??

3:13-3:25
GAY!! GAY!! (answer to 2:23)

3:33-5:00
Perhaps the weather outside is getting dark now as I type, perhaps it's purely the haunting sound of the choir in the clip. This is my favourite deleted scene of the lot..and I actually think they should have find a way to slot it somewhere in the movie.
I think it's very cinematic, and also metaphoric at a level (minus the fact Professor Flitwick is back at this part time job as Hogwarts conductor).
The colour treatment.. The gentle moving frames... That fantastic shot of Snape!! The lighting..his facial expression! Draco's 2 shots...
It is only up till the part with Ron and Hermione that I find this potentially slightly cheesy..but only for 2 seconds.
This has got to be like, the calm before the storm thing..
This has got to be my favourite, favourite deleted scene. Usually those deleted scenes are worth to be deleted, but this one is different, it's not awkward, not cheesy. It's just excellent.

5:15-5:47
What???
(Ron and Hermione are sitting together on the couch!! :D)

5:55-6:35
I like the golden tint in the scene. :)
