Look! Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince STATIONERY! Squee!
It’s no exaggeration to say that Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince will be regarded as the pinnacle of mankind’s achievement forever.
We’re so excited about Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince that we’re literally ticking off every second until its release on a giant blackboard, plus we’ve started to physically assault anyone we see who a) isn’t talking about Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince or b) doesn’t look like they’re thinking about it. Even if they’re old. That’s how much we care.
So imagine how delighted we were when we got sent images of Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy and that old wizard bloke (Gandalf?) taken from a brand new range of Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince stationery. How delighted were we? Boner delighted! And you will be too, provided you’re sexually aroused by the sight of a) stationery and b) schoolboys. But who isn’t these days, huh?
Look, we know. Thinking about another movie so soon after The Dark Knight feels like cheating. Ever single other movie made before or after will feel like watching a crude cartoon of a dancing horse now because The Dark Knight is so epic and Shakespearean and blah blah blah.
No other movies can compete at the moment, not even November’s Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince. But that’ll change, because Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince is just starting to amp up its marketing.
True, The Dark Knight may have benefited from one of its stars dying right after giving the performance of a lifetime, and by another of its stars going a bit mental at his clownmother, but Harry Potter’s got a trick or two up his sleeve as well.
Just last month we saw the first leaked photo from Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince – a photo that was about four-fifths wall. Take that Batman! What’s that? You want some more? Fine, then how about this – a bunch of scans from what appears to be some kind of Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince kiddy diary thing.
Brought to our attention by Spanish Harry Potter website BlogHogwarts.com, these scans are some of the most profoundly important images our eyes have ever had the privilege of processing. In years to come, future generations will look at that one blank notebook page with the little picture of Malfoy in the corner and regard it with the same wonder and awe as we do with Stonehenge or the Aztec pyramids.
And we’ll be staggered – absolutely staggered – if the picture of Harry Potter crouching slightly and looking a bit narked off that accompanies the May diary page doesn’t get used as a cure for cancer once scientists have properly learnt how to fully harness its power.
Honestly, the majesty of these images have left us terrified of what Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince merchandise they’ll show us next. A mug? A pencil case? No, please, not a pencil case – our mortal brains can only take so much… so much beauty.
