Hollywood Grind — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 04:28:13 +0000

Universal Studios announced today that Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park will open spring 2010 at Universal Orlando.

Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy, was in Orlando for the announcement when he said:

"Universal has given me the great honor in revealing to the world that the Wizarding World of Harry Potter will be opening its gates, spring 2010."

Universal has plans for this to be a big opening, and if it is a smashing success they plan to expand the theme park. The whole park is a fantasy come to life.

Kana is Biggest Japanese Harry Potter Fan Girl

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 18:38:48 +0000

Sanma Akashiya’s “Karakuri Terebi” held a contest last month in which 10,000 of Japan’s biggest Harry Potter fans competed for a chance to travel to the UK and interview the stars of the new Harry Potter movie. As it is a comedy show, they intentionally picked the strangest fans as finalists. A girl named Kana was the grand prize winner, and here are partially subtitled clips of her meeting Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter).

The best part of this interview is Kana’s obsession with Rupert’s eyelashes, which she touches with amazement. She also gets a sniff of his "wonderful smell" (her words). When Rupert said Kana smelled good too, she said most people described her as smelling like a granny.

In her interview with Daniel, Kana touched his face as well, then smelled her fingers. The person who did the subtitles said of Kana “this girl’s feelings are so real (genuine)” when Daniel was actually describing the situation as “surreal.”

Although Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie doesn’t hit theaters until July, another trailer has been released. The movie looks good. I just wish I could transport myself to July, so I could watch the movie today.

Harry Potter Release Date Moved Due to Equus

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 15:43:16 +0000

Warner Bros. has announced moving its sixth Potter film starring Daniel Radcliffe, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, from November 21, 2008, to July 17, 2009. The studio said reason is because "a spot opened on the summer schedule."

Rumors circulated recently saying the movie date was moved due to complications caused by the writer strike, however, that is not the case. Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe will be right in the middle of his sensational, highly publicized run on Broadway in the play, Equus. Radcliffe appears without clothes on in the play, on stage, and has sex in it as well. That’s not the image Warner Bros. wants associated with Harry Potter, who remains chaste and virginal.

Posters for Equus are up all over New York, of Radcliffe’s torso without clothes on superimposed on a horse’s head. Not exactly a Hogwarts image. For the movie to open on November 21, Radcliffe would have to do publicity entailing answering questions about blinding horses and having sex with them vs. flying around and making potions.

Warner Bros. does not want this scenario. By the time Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince debuts, Equus will either have concluded its run, or Radcliffe will have completed his contract.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Trailer

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 06:05:40 +0000

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie is coming … soon. This is the trailer. It looks sooooo good.

The movie reveals what the evil wizard Voldemort looked like as an 11-year-old boy. To make the Young Voldemort look a lot like the older Voldemort, the Young Voldemort is played by Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, the 10-year-old nephew of Ralph Fiennes, who has played He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named throughout most of the movie series.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince hits theaters November 21.

We posted this second copy of the trailer in case the first one gets removed. It happens.

Harry Potter Book Split into Two Movies

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 17:38:55 +0000

The last Harry Potter book, Deathly Hallows, will be split into two movies, and will be released in 2010 and 2011.

Alan Horn, president of Warner Bros., said that "it would have been a disservice" to downsize Deathly Hallows into one film.

There’s more money in two movies, plus fans would rather have more than less when it comes to Harry Potter.

Criss Angel and Jim Callahan Fight on Live TV

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 20:06:18 +0000

Criss Angel exposed â€œpsychicâ€ Jim Callahan last night on a live taping of the NBC show Phenomenon. Angel challenged fellow judge Uri Geller, and Callahan, to tell him what was in the envelope he was holding in his hand. If either of them did, Angel said he’d pay $1 million of his own money. Here’s what went down:

â€œCriss, I can see you’re itching to say something,â€ noted â€œPhenomenonâ€ host and Access Hollywood’s Tim Vincent .

â€œI just think it’s comical quite frankly,â€ Angel said.

Angel then pulled an envelope from his pocket and appeared to challenge, not only Callahan’s abilities, but also those of his fellow judge Geller.

â€œI will give you a million dollars of my personal money right now if either one of you can tell me specific details of what’s in here right now,â€ Angel insisted.

The challenge clearly didn’t sit well with the contestant.

â€œOk man, I’ll tell you what I will tell you. I find you an ideological bigot,â€ Callahan responded as he made his way towards Angel.

â€œTell me what’s in the envelope,â€ Angel kept repeating.

Angel then got out of his seat to meet Callahan, as Geller and Vincent came between the two men and separated them.

Obviously Angel came to the show prepared to embarrass Callahan. Callahan channels dead people’s spirits, and maybe this kind of magic bothers Angel, because it gives people false hope and false closure since, as Angel proves, it’s all fake. Angel’s magic is just as fake, but perhaps he feels he’s better than Callahan because his magic and deception is somehow more honest. Does it even matter if it’s fake, just as long as it’s entertaining? Maybe Angel felt threatened, or maybe this was all to get more free publicity just like when he hangs around with celebrities like Britney Spears. There’s no question that Angel could not have guessed what was in a surprise envelope either, if he had been challenged the same way. If any of them were real magicians they would have fought each other at a distance with magic wands like on Harry Potter. These guys are all talk and no magic.

J.K. Rowling Says Albus Dumbledore is Gay

Hollywood Grind — Sun, 21 Oct 2007 19:34:29 +0000

Harry Potter author, J.K. Rowling, announced on Friday that, master wizard and Headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore is in fact gay. No doubt, after outing Albus book sales surged. If Albus was gay, shouldn’t he have been a fairy rather than a wizard in Harry Potter? I knew that thing sticking out of his robe wasn’t a wand.
