As I posted a couple days ago, Xfinity released some new footage about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II. You can watch the clip below or on the Xfinity site. This contains a TON of new clips and scenes so beware of spoilers.
Wanrer Bros will be offering some very special 3D glasses for Potter fans that go to midnight showings of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II in 3D! They have created 3D glasses in the shape of Harry’s famous round glasses! They will be given for free to fans who attend midnight showings in select theatres only while supplies last!
Thanks to my co-worker Michelle for the tip!
But according to this website you will be able to purchase them for $11 (maybe more or less); but I am under the impression that they WON’T be for sale and will be given out for free.
