Continuous Tense

In grammar books the explanation is quite simple. If something is happening right now it's Continuous, if in general - simple.
Now, watching HArry Potter movie in English I've noticed phrases like He will be wanting to see his... I wondered when I'd be seeing you... He's always doing that. Could you explain Continuous in these examples?
Thank you!
