Full trailer for Harry Potter + the Deathly Hallows 1&2
Even without the HD version yet, this is pretty incredible— the stylized art direction, visual effects, cinematography— the whole set is going to be an amazing experience on IMAX 3D
UPDATE: MuggleNet has the trailer in hi-res and HD here.

This is brilliant 8-bit in the real-world stuff— I know people who’ve probably had the Tetris bit happen in their heads for real.
If I were an Atari/EA/Nintendo-like game company, I’d be pretty tempted to commission these folks to make a similar peice with my characters to show in cinemas, just as a “look how we’ve affected the real world”/”the influence of gaming is everywhere” sort of thing. Combine it with a site that includes behind-the-scenes videos and a little toy where you upload photos and have them converted to 8-bit for your Twitter/Facebook profile pictures, and you’re good to go.
I know that we’re all pretty bored of 8-bit themed videos at this point, but this is pretty exceptional. A fresh twist on the integration of pixels into the real world, and some amazing effects and art direction.
