Check It: The Latest Harry Potter Trailer!
Another month, another trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. This one is just as mesmerizing as the last and includes some new tidbits (and more Ron Weasley!). Just like the other Potter movies, Half-Blood Prince looks like it will be visually stunning.
Awesome Teaser For Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
"You're the chosen one, Harry."
This new international teaser trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince makes it even more of a bummer that the release date got bumped from November to July '09. The trailer makes the movie look exciting and dramatic and funny and darkly beautiful.

Last Harry Potter Book May Be Made Into Two Movies
It's nothing officially official yet, but word from UK source The Mail on Sunday is that the seventh and last Harry Potter book will turn into two movies instead of one. While the obvious reason for this would be that Warner Bros. stands to make even more gazillions of dollars with a Harry Potter 7 and a Harry Potter 8, the article claims that "sources insist the reason behind the two-movie plan is artistic rather than financial."
Harry Potter 6 Has Its Lavender Brown and Narcissa Malfoy
Harry Potter fans, we have our Lavender Brown. Twenty-year-old actress Jessie Cave beat out approximately 7,000 hopefuls for the role in the sixth Potter film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, scheduled for release in almost exactly one year, Nov. 21, 2008.
December Boys: A Sub-Par Coming-of-Age Story
While the trailer of December Boys looked sweet, I have to admit that the real reason I was interested in the movie was to see Daniel Radcliffe out of his wizarding cloak (and I don't mean that in the "Equus" kind of way). Unfortunately, the movie doesn't offer up very much to sink your teeth into, and while Radcliffe gives a perfectly fine performance, I'd much rather see Harry Potter any day.
The movie follows four orphans (who go by their nicknames Maps, Misty, Spit and Sparks) who have found a close camaraderie.
Would You Want to See Daniel Radcliffe Play a Young James Bond?
Recently there was a rumor circulating the film world that Daniel Radcliffe, Mr. Harry Potter himself, might play a younger version of James Bond. Apparently, a series of films may be made that follow the young Bond while he is attending Eton College and getting into all sorts of trouble.
Do you think Radcliffe could pull this off?

Daniel Radcliffe Gives His Take on Deathly Hallows
Aside from J.K. Rowling, I'm pretty sure nobody on earth is more intimately involved in the story of Harry Potter than Daniel Radcliffe, who has been playing Potter in the movies since age 11. Can you imagine reading the conclusion of a story starring a character you alone brought to life onscreen?
