But they're just using circular logic here, <I>and</I> in the process manage to alienate themselves from the potent fanbase of Harry Potter enthusiasts.<BR/><BR/>Dear Sirs and Madams at Warner. You do have the right to decide the release dates for your stuff. But please, when you have set a date and released trailers for a movie, it would be wise to consider very, very long whether or not to backtrack in a blatant attempt to get the most out of it.<BR/><BR/>Also consider this. Most Harry Potter fans that would watch the film will see it very close the release date, regardless of when it is. Such is the power of the admiration and dedication. <BR/><BR/>These people would go and see your movie even if you set the release date to 12.21.2012 when the world ends, but the more you push them, the more they will start pushing back by not getting the DVD's by legit means for example, and you will lose a whole bunch of profit in the process. And you don't need me to tell you that there are a lot of Harry Potter fans out there, seething at you right now.<BR/><BR/>But it's all right, I can understand your position; I'm just hoping that you'll get a professional team and soon to clean the Nargle infestation in your offices that clearly seems to be affecting the rational thoughts of your leading people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340031806320822097.post-74502320665438563422008-08-30T11:07:00.000-07:002008-08-30T11:07:00.000-07:00this isn't fair at all. i honestly think that if y...this isn't fair at all. i honestly think that if you put out the trailers and the posters, and then pushing back the movie, wouldn't you have to spend MORE money on the posters and refixing the trailer?! that's not fair! you're all just being greedy and you aren't making this fair for us at all :(<BR/><BR/>hp-stars owns ;DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340031806320822097.post-37517050201761647602008-08-30T10:41:00.000-07:002008-08-30T10:41:00.000-07:00If your going to Boycott, or write letters be sure...If your going to Boycott, or write letters be sure to write to other companies involved in the films production.

Don't worry, I kept it as respectful as possible :) <BR/><BR/>As for the people who were saying they were having some issues with red envelopes, I actually went to my local book store and asked if they had any.

Please be assured that we share your love for Harry Potter and would certainly never do anything to hurt any of the films. Over the past 10 years, we have nurtured and protected each film, and the integrity of the books upon which they are based, to the best of our ability. The decision to move “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” was not taken lightly, and was never intended to upset our Harry Potter fans. We know you have built this series into what it is, and we thank you for your ongoing enthusiasm and support. If I may offer a silver lining: there would have been a two-year gap between “Half-Blood Prince” and the much-anticipated first part of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” which opens in November 2010. So although we have to wait a little longer for “Half-Blood Prince,” the wait from that film until “Deathly Hallows” will be less than 18 months. I am sorry to have disappointed you now, but if you hold on a little longer, I believe it will be worth the wait.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
