Credits to mugglenet and Snitchseeker!

Quote:
David Barron has revealed to the Herald Sun that a new scene has been added in the upcoming Half-Blood Prince film in order to remind moviegoers that nowhere is safe. Having JK Rowling's approval of the scene, Barron is confident that people will like it:

But this was brought in because Jo (Rowling) was able throughout the quite lengthy book to keep dropping little snippets of what was happening in the outside world - there'd be people reading newspapers and talking about how somebody's parents had been killed, or somebody had been withdrawn from school because their parents didn't think it was safe.

And we're making aware that the Muggle world is also experiencing these disasters, but thinks they are disasters rather than the work of Voldemort.

The book is peppered with those moments, but we couldn't do that quite so easily in the film.

So (the extra scene) comes in the middle of the film and it just reminds us the world is no longer a safe place. Even in what would normally be considered the safe haven of the Burrow, nobody's safe.


Hm... that sounds okay, but wasn't the Prime Minster scene the whole point of showing the moviegoers that even in the muggle world... it isn't safe? Ah well, as long as JK Rowling is fine with it, then so should I.

I hope they do good with this movie... this scene better be good.

And yeah, I guess they didn't want to be bothered with the Prime Minister scene. They had announced previously that they were going to cast Scrimgeour. I suppose this is is heir own way of showing that the magical world and the muggle world, no matter how different, are still connected.

This part isn't in the book, though. It was included to get the point across in a different way than the book does.

Yep, thats true. But I was confused as to why they didn't included the Prime Minister scene. This part could be equivalent to this new added scene and it will do the book some justice (also the book fans).

It seems like there's going to be more than one extra scene added to the movie. Following from Natalia's (who plays Tonks) interview, she said she'll only appear in the scenes where they get attacked by Death Eaters in the Burrow at Christmas!!!

What a joke! Mad Mad
