1 year ago
The final Harry Potter movie marked the end of an era this summer, and Warner Brothers is trying to punctuate the epic saga’s conclusion with an Oscar blitz.
A series of “For Your Consideration” ads have been released with the intention of lobbying voters to nominate Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.

1 year ago
After a horrible start to 2011, Hollywood’s power brokers had a lot riding on this summer’s movie season. By the looks of the failing economy, you wouldn’t think the numbers would’ve picked up. But riding on the backs of big budget sequels, like the billion dollar hits Harry Potter and Pirates of the Caribbean, the movie industry has something to smile about. Save for the booming technology sector in Silicon Valley, Hollywood seems the be the only bright spot in an economy that looks wobbly at best.
Analysts are predicting that box office receipts will be up at least five percent from last

It’s safe to say that few films are greeted with the simultaneous feelings of elation and dread that surround Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.
For 10 years, Harry, Ron, Hermione & Co. have touched millions of lives, maturing and gaining confidence as they transitioned from misfits to heroes.
In a sense, their journey has mirrored that of Harry Potter‘s fan base, for whom this is more than a film. Harry is a best friend, part of the fabric of life.
Sadly, as we celebrate its greatness, we must also let that friend go at last.

Lindsay Lohan. Britney Spears. Demi Lovato. We all could keep the names coming. These days, it’s only a matter of time before another young actor or actress dives off the deep end, shaves their hair, and very publicly drags themselves off to rehab. The problem: we expect teen celebrities to fail, to reveal themselves as drug addicts, to turn up in rehab. If tomorrow morning Daniel Radcliffe overdoses on crack and wakes up in jail, all your friends will say, “I told you so.” No biggie. Another shining star falls and life moves on.
The bigger problem: teen celebrities listen to and learn from
