First Look: 'Potter' filmmakers strive for stand-alone magic
By Claudia Puig, USA TODAY

The next installment Harry Potter film will face a unique situation: It arrives more than a year after the completion of the literary saga. (The seventh and final book, Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows, was published last summer.)
The big-screen versions, the filmmakers realize, now have to be separate entities.

"We had to make this film a worthy successor to the last — and a successful stand-alone film in its own right," says producer David Baron.

In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince— due in theaters Nov. 21 and highlighted in this exclusive look — the focus is on the evolution of Harry's rival Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) into a malevolent force. Also introduced: Potions teacher Professor Slughorn (Jim Broadbent).

Harry will whip up some particularly potent brews, thanks to his discovery of a book mysteriously marked "the property of the Half-Blood Prince."

Potter's alchemy has been consistently powerful at the box office. Last year's Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix conjured up $292 million.

This time around, the danger may come from inside Hogwarts.

Harry, now 16, is suspicious of Malfoy, and he works with Dumbledore to retrieve memories pertaining to the evil Lord Voldemort. But, being a teen as well as a wizard, he is drawn to Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright), the younger sister of Ron (Rupert Grint).

Do Harry and Ginny share a magical snog?

"They're about to kiss," director David Yates says. "Then the bloody Death Eaters turn up and cause all sorts of anarchy."

I am starting to really hate Yates. Perhaps even more than Nigel.

lol . . . Welcome to my world!

Looks like some people got their wishes. Bonnie Wright has been replaced with this Bonnie Knight chick.

If nothing else, this movie will provide a lot of laughs.

Why do they have to ruin every movie? What's the point?! Why cut out the Harry/Ginny kiss?! (And it's not at the Burrow you dimwits, it's after the Quidditch match...) *throws a temper tantrum*

A couple of us were talking about this last night (early morning?)... we were wondering... if maybe they were trying to throw us off... ya know, keep it a surprise or something. I don't know, I think maybe we're just clinging to false hope. Sad

There has to be at least one kiss. There is the little bit that was in the sneak peak where he see Ginny kiss Harry and walk away.
