As so NOT to confuse anyone who may come across it: The Diamond Comics summary of OotP is fake. Said so by Scholastic.

Here's a link to the summary: LINK (http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/images/2003/04/HPOotPAdDiamondComics.gif)

Just to make it offically offical: Hermione Granger's birthday is September 19th, 1981. :)

Fresh out of the Rumor Mill!: Emma Chambers (http://www.notting-hill.com/cast/honey.html) might be playing the role of Professor Trelawney in the PoA movie!  I, myself, am not very framiliar with her (being as actor-unknowledged as I am), but she seems like she could fit the bill. :)

Just to clear-up any frantic Dan fans out there, Daniel Radcliffe was NOT in a car accedent. This is CONFIRMED. The rumors are NOT true. It's just a hoax to scare Dan fans. : |

Not much else to say, but that there are fake copies of OotP's running around on the internet. So don't fall for it!

Anyway... on to da news!! :D

5/8/03


The BIG news that has been running around for the past few days is about two first edition copies of Book Five found in a field.
The two books had apparently been stollen from a near-by local printing facility.

"The matter is currently under investigation, with the suspicion that theft is involved," Rowling's publisher and agent said in a brief joint statement.

The 40-year-old father of two who found them turned them both in directly to the local newspaper, The Sun (http://www.thesun.co.uk), in his small town Bungay, Suffolk, in eastern England.

The Sun (http://www.thesun.co.uk)'s FIRST REVIEW!

Here is the first review for HP OotP! :) Don't worry! It has no spoilers, but it does point towards a great book ahead! ^o^

(Link also includes reports on Book-5-in-field stuff). LINK (http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2003210296,00.html)

~

Here's something funny to ponder on! ;D

Victoria, a reporter in the UK, interviewed Sir Ian McKellan last weekend about X2, in which he also spoke some about the Harry Potter series and his friends in the cast:

Sir Ian Mckellen told the audience that he was sitting next Alan Rickman at showing of Ghosts, a play at the Barbican Centre in London that afternoon (3rd May), and that he asked Alan how the filming on was going. "All well and good," replied Mr. Rickman. "Except Mike Gambon and his Fart Machine."

"Fart machine?" said Sir Ian.

"Yes, he put it in Harry Potter's bed when we were filming..."

Also, during the Q&A at the end of the talk Sir Ian was asked whether he would like to give advice to Sir Michael Gambon on playing a wizard. "I do not think that I could give advice to Sir Mike on anything; he will be very good. I hear that he took a very long time to negotiate his fee for playing Dumbledore so he must know what he is doing...."


And that's always good to hear. :)
