    Analyzing the NEW HARRY POTTER TV SHOW TRAILER! | New look at Hogwarts, Snape, Dumbledore, and Lily + James (???)

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode we analyze the new Harry Potter TV show trailer. Enjoy! Topics/Summary: ·      Watch the second trailer here! ·      1:44 This seemed a lot more intense than the first trailer.

McGonagall, Snape, and Dumbledore were all features in this trailer, and they all had lines and dedicated screen time. There were some things that surprised me, and others that didn’t. ·      28:15 The trio had some screen time as well. They’re growing on me overall, but there are some minor parts of their characters that are still giving me some pause. I wonder how different the characters are going to be from book to small screen… ·      32:42 Potter family reunion? We saw two young people running across a bridge together. They were fairly young, and that scene was nestled between Hagrid talking about family and Harry looking into the Mirror of Erised. I mean…what else could you need?  ThePotterDiscussion@gmail.com thepotterdiscussion.com Nox
