I hope that this advertisement does not appear on the first disc of the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 Blu-ray that is part of the current eight-film collection because if I had just purchased that set I would find it objectionable that they would release an “incomplete” – as it were – collection instead of just giving viewers everything they have to begin with.

This kind of an ad, even as a teaser (without a specific date attached to it) is trying to interest people who have already bought at least 1-8 of the films in the collection into buying the movie again, presumably for more features. Call me old-fashioned, but I just don’t see how it’s tasteful at all when someone has just purchased a video, to advertise that same video but with more exclusive content. Presumably, this “definitive” collection WILL have unique and special features on it. The ad says, “From the first spell to the final battle.” You can check out the actual advertisement at this link. HOWEVER, the box set that THIS trailer advertises is called “Harry Potter – The Definitive Collection,” and the advertisement provides a release date of 2012. It’s simply a way to purchase all films at once. It is a collection of the films in a special case, but there do not appear to be any unique features that come with that box set.
But simultaneous with the release of this film on home video (and with the LEGO video game), there is also an eight-film collection of all of the Potter movies on DVD and Blu-ray. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 is coming to home video now, and that is what this review is for. A very similar trailer to the one appearing on this home video of Deathly Hallows – Part 2 can be found at this link.Ģ) Harry Potter – The Definitive Collection: THIS trailer is particularly notable. I enjoy seeing LEGO’s (and TT Games’) take on Voldemort’s character, and it’s obvious that a lot of the darkness will be lampooned in an entertaining way through the game. This video game is being released on nearly all platforms on the same day that this film is coming to home video (Friday, November 11, 2013). It features Lord Voldemort practicing his “evil face” in front of a mirror, and he is eventually discovered by Bellatrix. There are three advertisements that play prior to the main menu coming up:ġ) LEGO Harry Potter, Years 5-7 : This trailer, in typical LEGO fashion, is hilarious. But after viewing “Maximum Movie Mode” and seeing first-hand how it worked, I understand why certain features had to be on the first disc. Initially, I was confused because the second disc (labeled “Bonus Features”) would seem to be the proper place for all featurettes besides a movie commentary, which must naturally run alongside the film.
After completing a review for Disc 2 of the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 Blu-Ray + DVD combo pack, which is the bonus features disc, I knew that there was one feature for sure to be on the first disc: “Maximum Movie Mode.” I was surprised, upon searching the menus, however, to see that there were some more features on the first disc as well.
