Site Downtime

Posted on 4. 30. 08 by Reggie || 1 comments

I'm sure most of you have noticed that I haven't been updating for the past week or so. That was because a virus slithered its away into my hosts and effected the website. It's taken me awhile to get things going and even now, there are still some things I have to do to get the site back up and ready.

The bad news is that I've lost an entire months worth of posts, pictures and updates.  I'm disappointed, but what can you do? The gallery is offine for now, so don't click on it.

For a bit of bright news though, the forums have been incredibly active latey. A couple of old members have returned, we have fourth issue of Witch Weekly out and everything. I'll publish it here on the website later this week.

So overall, bare with me as I get things back running and such. Thanks for the e-mails and such, I appreciate it. 



Happy Birthday James Potter!

I'm a day late, but happy birthday to James Potter, Harry's dad. If he were alive today, he would be turning 48. So happy be-lated birthday James!



Rita Skeeter out of Hal-Blood Prince

Posted on 3. 28. 08 by Reggie || 0 comments

A lot of fans loved the adaptation of Rita Skeeter in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, a role greatly played by British actress Miranda Richardson; something that will probably not be seen in the big screen anymore.

 

Miranda was not invited for the fifth film Order of the Phoenix, when Skeeter has an exclusive interview with Harry, and according to PR-inside, the actress will also stay out of the sixth production of the franchise, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, when she was supposed to show up at the end of the book.

She says, “Well, if I am in it, they haven’t told me! I don’t know why. I think it is because they like to bring in new characters. I’m not upset about it. I’m just enjoying life and seeing other people’s work.

As the character is not in Deathly Hallows, we might conclude that Miranda will not be in the series again. Let’s wait and see!



Teaser Trailer of HBP on May 9 or 16?

Posted on 3. 28. 08 by Reggie || 0 comments

So far, only two promotional pictures of the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film were released by Warner, and fans are getting eager for more concrete news, such as a trailer.

 

The earlier rumors said that the teaser trailer would be released in the international theaters in the beginning of the film Speed Racer, on May 9. Speculations about this date come from two factors:

  • The filming of the sixth film will be done by the end of April, and following tendencies from previous films, the teaser trailer should be released right after this;
  • Speed Racer is the only film by Warner that will get into the theaters at the day more likely to have the teaser trailer released – based, of course, on the dates of release of “Order of the Phoenix”.

However, the other day TLC was informed by a source supposedly credible that the teaser trailer of the sixth film will be released in the theaters during the exhibitions of the film The Chronicles of Narnia – Prince Caspian.

Prince Caspian – by Walt Disney Pictures – reaches the theaters in United States on May 16.

Even though TLC declares the source is credible, we would like to ask our readers to consider this information as a rumor until an official confirmation is released.



First HBP Ad & HQ Promo

Posted on 3. 26. 08 by Reggie || 0 comments

The other day I brought to you the first ever Half-Blood Prince picture of Harry, Ron and Hermione gathered in the Gryffindor Common Room, studying some letter. Now I have a high-quality version of that same image.

Also, I have the HBP ad poster. Enjoy!

 



HP actors play in the SET

Posted on 3. 24. 08 by Reggie || 0 comments

The actor Rupert Grint, while appearing last week in the “Play.com Live Expo” in Wembley, England, was quickly interviewed by The Sun about jokes and video games that they play in the set of filming between scenes.

 

“We play a lot in the set of Harry Poter while we are not called to film. We have a Wii.”

“This event is great, very cool. I’ve been playing Call of Duty with 10 other persons. But I was awful, I only killed two persons. My favorites are games of direction like Need For Speed, doing all the improvements in the cars.”

A photo of the actor can be seen in our gallery, clicking here.

In a new interview with Rupert yesterday, the actor talks about Emma Watson playing table tennis:

“We have a table of table tennis and we always play between the scenes.

Dan has been luck in the last months and we both have been playing very well, but Emma is brilliant. We almost never play against her now because it finishes a little embarrassingly.”



David Yates Explains HBP Movie Concept

Posted on 3. 24. 08 by Reggie || 0 comments

Yeah, that’s it. David Yates described like this the sixth movie that he is driving, more specifically the relation already less Platonic of Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley. As well as Yates, Daniel Radcliffe also commented the subject, affirming that this is “a complex history”.

 

More details you read below in extracted passages of the Chilean magazine Wikén:

Contradicting all the expectations, the sixth movie of the saga will not be so dark as the previous. In spite of the tragic end of the mentor of Harry, Dumbledore (Michael Gambon), the movie in fact is about the clumsy and comic romance between Harry and Ginny Weasley, sister of Harry’s best friend, Ron (played by Bonnie Wright launched in the second movie).

Here is what Radcliffe has to say about the subject: “It is a complex history, it is not a simple romance, because Harry is like an intimate friend of Ron, and Ginny is his sister, and Harry feels like if he was skating on thin ice”. According to director David Yates, “the fifth [movie] was quite intense, but this one has more comedy in (…) There are many subtleties in the relationship, and a lot of sexual and emotional tension”. The movie also promises a lot of action and magic, and will count with at least a scene that it is not in the book.

The reporter of Wikén also mentions seen Alan Rickman in the sets as his character Severus Snape, in the day they visited the studios, and also the scene of the party of the Slug Club being filmed in the same day.

During the day of filming he testified a scene where the new teacher of the school of Hogwarts, Horatio Slughorn (played by the British actor Jim Broadbent, known by secondary papers in classics as “Brazil” e “Richard III”), celebrating a Christmas party in his rooms and walking through groups talking with the guests, trying to gain favors of his favorite pupils.
