When Exactly Will that ‘Harry Potter 6′ Teaser Trailer Debut?

Dark Knight? Star Wars? iTunes? Pen cap TV?

As it is beginning to seem inevitable that a trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will debut any day now rumors are beginning to swirl and spread like wildfire. The big story earlier this week was how the a 15 second (yes, 15 second) teaser would be show in front of The Dark Knight on July 18. That has not been confirmed by anyone at Warner Bros. just yet and is beginning to seem less likely.

A new rumor popped up today over at The Leaky Cauldron saying a full length teaser may be attached to Star Wars: The Clone Wars when it opens on August 15. This is a far more likely scenario considering a Potter trailer would help attract attention to a film it seems only hardcore Star Wars fans are truly interested in.

Reading about all this, it makes me wonder, do any of you actually go to movies just because a trailer will be showing before the film? Did any of you go see I Am Legend in IMAX just to see The Dark Knight prologue? How about Transformers? Any of you go see that just to see the trailer for Cloverfield? I seriously doubt it, but it was the only other one I could think of off the top of my head and I joked about it at the time.

I was going to see "I am Legend" anyway when it came out, but when I found out about the prologue was only playing on IMAX screens, I decided to check it out the movie in IMAX. And that was the first time I ever saw anything like that on a big screen. I did not think it would fill up that huge screen.

But I am sure there are people that went to see "I am Legen" just for the prologue. The theater I went to had notes everywhere saying they wouldnt refund your money after the prologue was over.

Who needs to waste the money watching a stupid ass movie like I am Legend just to see the Batman prologue when YouTube had it on there the same day!
