God, does this inane bullshit have to be brought into every single thread? If you have grievances with regard to how the video was edited, that's perfectly understandable, but to extend that into an argument about how Warner Brothers supposedly hates some of their actors belongs elsewhere. You don't have to make every…

The scene is great (and regrettably underrated) as is, but if Voldemort was closer to Neville at one point, it seems there's a pattern in deleted material with regard to Voldemort's relations to other characters (his proximity to Harry during the "Why do you live?" moment, etc). Interesting stuff.

According to IMDB, Alan Rickman's expression as he's falling to his "death" in Die Hard is genuine: For the shot where Hans Gruber falls from the top of the building, Alan Rickman was actually falling from a 21-foot high model. He was holding on to a stunt man and falling on to an air bag. To get the right reaction, the…

I missed the opportunity to potentially receive Dan's autograph when I went to see How to Succeed back in March because I thought I had to be back at Penn Station sooner than I actually did (I attended a matinee performance, which ended around 10:00 or so, and I was under the impression that my return trip was at 10:30, so…

I'll be in the same room as Alan soon. I just have to decide if I want to wait until the previews are over or go as early as next week. One thing, however, is set in stone: I'll be attending a matinee performance to have a chance of getting his autograph once the performance is over. As soon as the show is over and the…

Nevertheless, it's laughable to entertain the possibility, for one fleeting moment even, that Breaking Dawn: Part 1 will reach the critical and financial heights of Deathly Hallows: Part 2. At best, the reviews for all three preceding films have been middling, and from what I've seen thus far, Part 1 does not look like it…

It's been confirmed that Lionsgate will have the second, full-length Hunger Games trailer attached to most prints of Breaking Dawn: Part 1. I'm not sure how great an incentive the trailer will be for fans of HG who otherwise do not enjoy Twilight, as it will most likely be made available online shortly after -- or around…

Before Dan, I had never been in any kind of close proximity to a celebrity before. It was a strange experience to be just some feet away from him for a prolonged amount of time, especially since we had prime seats near the stage for that night's performance, but ultimately it was about the experience of the play and not…

Thanks! I saw Dan in How to Succeed back in March, and although I am genuinely interested to see Alan's play on its own terms, I can't help but feel that this is something of a tradition. I'd like to try to see Samuel Jackson and Angela Bassett's play as well, but I don't think I'll be able to come back to the city before…

It's already been confirmed that they're going to substantially alter the battle in Part 2. They've already amped up the conflict in Part 2, if you haven't yet noticed - Sam and his wolf pack, now at odds with Jacob, have tension with Bella in the book, but in the film they act on it more viciously by trying to attack her…

If I were ever to see Breaking Dawn, it would not be solely to see the spectacle of Bill Condon's handling of the material. In retrospect, it's not as if his involvement is entirely surprising -- his films, especially some of the earlier ones, are pulpy and not divorced from the balls-out insanity of the birth sequence --…

I went to see New Moon and Eclipse due to coercion from my nieces. Are you going for any particularly redeeming reason?

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part I. Come on, you know you'll all be there...

This channel had a great deal more videos from what is supposedly a slightly downgraded copy of the Blu-Ray, but a few of them were removed by Warner Brothers due to copyright. At the moment, though, Harry vs. Voldemort, the opening sequence and a few more are still available:…

Interestingly enough, Helena's appearance here is more or less an accurate recreation of Miss Havisham as described in the book. Although most adaptations peg her as an elderly woman, Charles Dickens wrote her to be only in her mid-fifties, looking like a cross between a waxwork and a skeleton. Helena's waxy, almost…

This isn't going to become a debate about GOF. Take that elsewhere if you're so inclined.
-
Does this still have to be explained?
-
Once again, I highly doubt they're seriously considering each and every listing here, so these reactions are utterly overblown. For the initial materials, well before award season gets fully underway, it's not unheard of for a studio to start with everyone and everything - especially in such an extensive production - and…

Ah, that's right: Mendes was the executive producer, not the director. I'll amend my original statement. Anyway, a journalist managed to have a quick word with Ralph Fiennes after the formal announcement today, who slyly offered only one detail about his character: he doesn't get laid. Now, the one conclusion some of you…

The only film from Sam Mendes I haven't enjoyed was, and still is, The Kite Runner, so fingers crossed he does well with Bond.
