The first trailer released for the long anticipated conclusion of the Harry Potter saga, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, brings forth the darkness that the story exudes. The trio of heroes are all shown facing intense difficulties that are quite real and beyond their years. Chilling battle sequences, glimpses of fear and pain on the faces of some beloved characters, and the mass of death eaters awaiting undesirable #1 are enhanced by the literal darkness of the scenes with powerful music overlaying the cold, deliberate words of Voldemort. The trailer encompasses both parts of the Deathly Hallows films (they have split the tale into two films, which will hopefully make the representation more complete) and focuses in on the epic battle of good vs evil in Harry Potter and Voldemort.

To me, the acting already seems incredible and the scenery and cinematography look amazing. The trailer definitely has raised the anticipation level of fans around the world (including myself). I will say that it will be interesting to see how the battles hold to the book, but some scenes depicted here do look like they are straight from the pages, which is something I have been missing from the last films. Does the trailer make you want to see the movies more? What do you think?
