Eclipse Sneak Peek BTS

Exciting, hah?
Well, I am!

It looks like a more classic vampire+werewolf action movie. And I believe the boys would like this.



Here's the trailer

HP makes TOP BOOK TO PASS ON

A World Book Day survey has found that the Harry Potter series ranks as the top book readers would pass on to younger generations. The BBC reports that more than 1,000 Britons aged 16-64 were surveyed as part of this poll. The full list is as follows:

1. The Harry Potter Series - JK Rowling
2. The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown
3. Why Don't Penguins' Feet Freeze?: And 114 Other Questions - New Scientist
4. A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson
5. Twilight - Stephenie Meyer
6. The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini
7. 9/11 Commission Report - National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States
8. You Are What You Eat: The Plan That Will Change Your Life - Dr Gillian McKeith
9. The God Delusion - Richard Dawkins
10. Dreams From My Father - Barack Obama

It is awesome that HP is #1 at the top of this list :)
HP really is timeless and passing the book down through the generations will ensure that HP lives on. I’m a little surprised at some of the books in the top ten but hey what do I know … lol
In the list of bed time books where HP was voted #19 it has been beaten by some worthy opponents I guess like Winnie The Pooh, Dr Seuss books and Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tales. Maybe in a few years from now HP will be classed as a classic like those books, too!!

I’m so glad to hear that teenagers, giving their choice to Harry Potter, are still capable of recognizing which the true values of life are, and are willing to pass them on to the next generation. I’m really confident in a better future, better because of us. ^^

Dan: Saying Goodbye to Potter...

A number of new articles and videos have surfaced on the MTV website in which Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) has spoken briefly about "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."

Radcliffe comments, "[we] have done a few tests, and it does look really, really rather good."

The Harry Potter actor also spoke about the daughter of Amanda Knight - the
head of the makeup department - who Radcliffe hopes will portray Harry's daughter Lily Potter. "She was born a week before I got the part and is now 9," continued Radcliffe, "So it's the kind of physical embodiment of how long we've been there."

Secondly, Daniel Radcliffe has spoken about saying goodbye to Harry Potter, "something," he concedes, "you have to accept, and it's also very exciting." The actor described seeing fellow cast members leave the set for good as, "odd" as they finish their individual stories in the film and also discussed the lasting impact of the film on the British film industry:

I did have a moment the other day, in the makeup room that I have been in for ten years now. I did walk in and go, 'Wow, this is [hitting me]. One day — in about four or five months from now — I'm going to walk in here
for the last time.'

Potter has been the major film in England for the past ten years and it's [...] kept a lot of people in work, myself included, obviously.

You can find the video accompanying this article at this link, where you can also find more video clips of MTV's interview with the actor. In these clips, Radcliffe mentions filming the resurrection stone scene in 'The Forest Again,' saying he "put a lot of pressure on [himself]" to get it right.






I really enjoyed this interview.
A very good interview! It’s always a pleasure to listen to Daniel! :)
All the actors and the crew seem to be very committed to the process of making the best possible movie for all fans.
It makes me happy that he thinks the aging tests are looking good. Too bad he stressed himself out so much for the Forrest scene. Hopefully it’s still fine and he just put too much pressure on himself.
That little girl must be so cute! [It's Lily Luna Potter!! ^0^]
How crazy to think she’s physical representation of the age of these movies.
I love the idea and I think it’s really special for the crew to use her.

How sad for Dan to being saying good-bye to everyone. Who’s left and how much more time do they still have?? This is exciting me so excited for the films.

Rhys Ifans: "Real Honor" to be in DH

MTV has released a clip from a press junket interview with actor Rhys Ifans, who is set to portray the character of Xeno Lovegood in the "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" film, which features the actor discussing further his role in the upcoming film. Starting by relating the "great" experience he had making the film, Mr. Ifans expanded on this by saying:

"When you're an English actor and you get the 'Harry Potter' call-- it's like
Batman, you know? You have a phone, you have a normal phone, and then you have
one that is made out of wood. That's the 'Potter' people. They call you up [and]
you get your wand out, you put your cloak on and off you go. It's a real honor.
It's like getting knighted or something."

"You just sit with all these actors
you've starved with in the theater... sitting there dressed as wizards [and]
having wand-offs. So it's very pleasantly surreal."

A 10-year roller coaster ride

There is a new interview with Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) with Collider.com online today. Quoteage:

Well, it’s very sad for me. I was already nostalgic for the history of Harry
Potter while I was still making it and I knew the end was coming. It was two
film…they made the last book into two films and it was a fantastic experience because everybody’s back…everyone who is left alive that is…and even some of the dead people. There is nothing greater than sitting around on a Harry Potter set when you’re not filming and listening to the likes of Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, Bill Nighy and Jim Broadbent tell stories. And watching everybody crew the scenery up in the few moments you get on screen - trying to out ham each other is magnificent. This big franchise goes out in an epic way. But I was always cognisant of the fact that I’d have to pack up my little furry friend of a wig and stick it in a box and say goodbye to the cane. All the joy was tinged with sadness for me.

I think the end of the films will be a fantastically cinematic and visual feast. It will more than satisfy the readers of the books…but you won’t get is the book on screen. You’ll get something more and different. Everybody is very savvy to the notion that this is a much-loved franchise and this will be the end of an eighth film, and it needs to have weight and substance and you need to feel drained by the end of it. It’s a ten-year roller coaster ride, not a two-hour roller coaster ride, and we all know it and we all felt it, and it was in the air while we were shooting it.

Wow, I cannot believe that after ten years, the end is so near! I remember when I first watch Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone at the cinema when I was just 7.
10 years now... I hope it would never end.
On one hand I am really really excited for the two part film to come out but on the other hand, just thinking that after that there will be nothing else to look forward to is just overwhelming.

"I nearly killed myself -- on the day that I died."

RottenTomatoes.com has a new profile online of actress Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange) which features some new details of her character in the Harry Potter final film. The actress relates the following in the interview:

And it'll be quite the moment, she explained. "I do get a good death scene," she told us. "It was really exhausting. As usual! [I'm] duelling, with a wand, on a table. I fell right off. I was clever enough to say, 'If you're going to ask me to duel, backwards, can we put a stuntman at the end?' They said, 'Ah, you won't need one.' And what did I do? Walked straight off.

"You'd think with 70 people looking at you, one of them would go, 'Er, could you stop?!' No! They loved it. I nearly killed myself -- on the day that I died."

She continues, speaking to the kind of character she created for Bellatrix, a character which "wasn't on the page." Quoteage

:I did think, What can I do to make this interesting? She was just written as tall and gaunt, but I knew there was something I got attracted to -- playing arrested development. You know, children. Bellatrix is another child -- stuck and totally anarchic."

"I nearly killed myself -- on the day that I died."
Best line!
