The battle for Hogwarts begins in the new Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 trailer

By Ryan Fleming June 17, 2011

After nearly 15 years perched atop the collective public consciousness (not to mention the top of the best-selling book and movie box-office lists), the Harry Potter franchise comes to its conclusion next month.

The first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was a bit light on action at times (you can check out our review here), but that is mainly because the majority of the action in the book took place in the second half. The same is true of the movie, and Part 2 promises to be a worthy, and fittingly epic finale to the series.

Check out the trailer below and look for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 on July 15.

Everything leaving Netflix in May 2024

Netflix is always at its best when it has a robust lineup of movies from other studios to go along with its original films. But in May, Netflix is going to lose a lot of great flicks, because several of its movies on loan from rival studios are going back home. This month, that includes L.A. Confidential, the first four Hunger Games movies, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, and even Where the Crawdads Sing, which enjoyed a nearly 18-month run on Netflix following its theatrical release.

Fox's short-lived sitcom The Mick is also departing Netflix, which tends to shed movies more often than it does shows. But there is an upside to this month's content migration: May has a full 31 days and a holiday weekend. That should go a long way toward helping plan your movie nights so you can catch these films and shows before they depart.
