Potter Exclusive

"Total Film Magazine" is again hosting an exclusive perview (and it really is exclusive...none of Skeeter's brocilli) of WB's Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Unfrtunantly there arent any cool stuff like, interviews or cool photos, although on the cover of the magazine is pretty good picture of Harry. Check it out here (courtesy of Snitch Seeker)!

Ireland loves JKR

Many famouse authors out there don't get paid alot because their books are being rented at libraries rather than bought. And many bestsellers donate their makings to charities and organisations, remaining mid-class. Well, Ireland is doing something about that. The country selected several "popular authors" to recieve cheques due to their popularity in public libraries and with the general public, and gues who was one of them? That's right... JK Rowling! I mean, it would be kindoff weird if they didn't award the most awsome (well, almost) writer in this century! And as The Times Online reports, Binchy said, "It’s only fair that if hundreds of people borrow your book, you get paid,” she said. And she is so right! Congrats to all you winners!

"I think a few of mine have ruptured," said Fred in a hollow voice."Mine haven't," said George, through clenched teeth. "They're throbbing like mad...feel bigger if anything..." (book 5)

B-day!

They Did Not Just Do That...

Sad news for the Harry Potter fans... 


At Saturday's Kids' Choice Awards, in the category of favorite book series, Twilight beat Harry Potter. I find it shocking. Really shocking. 

Oh well, we'll get them next time with the hype for Deathly Hallows and all. Congrats to Twi-hards and sorry to HP fans and Wimpy Kid fans as well. 

Need some cheering up? Click here. WARNING: Twilight fans WILL be offended.

Well, the "official website for the upcoming Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park" has a brand new poll question!
