The IMDB messages boards usually host pretty decent discussions, as anonymous message boards go. However a recent entry on the page of the upcoming Peter Jackson movie 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' suggests IMDB isn't immune to what is either some pretty slick "trolling" or some unprecedented stupidity.
You've heard the Harry Potter theme many times, performed many ways. But you've probably never heard a version quite like this one.
If your favorite part of the 'Harry Potter' films is the use of magic, then this 17-minute supercut of nothing but the spells from the series is for you. Watch now. Don't make us use the slug-vomiting charm on you.
The Harry Potter saga may have ended with 'The Deathly Hallows,' but a surprising number of now-adults who grew up with the boy wizard and friends are keeping the fantasy series going by actually playing the once-fictional sport of Quidditch.
J.K. Rowling was an unknown struggling writer when she came up with the Harry Potter universe. And when she wrote it into book form, it became one of the greatest rags-to-riches stories in publishing history. But what if Harry Potter didn't really come from Rowling's supple imagination? What if Hogwarts was based on an actual real-life school for wizards, making Harry Potter essentially non-fiction?
In one corner, we have 'Harry Potter,' the wizard book series by J.K. Rowling that spawned eight movies and an international franchise, and put Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint on the map. Even after Potter and his pals finished battling monsters, evil sorcerers and, worst of all, school bullies, their story is still being read a million times over.
In the other, we have 'The Lord of the Rings,' J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece -- other than 'The Hobbit,' of course -- filled with epic battles, quests, magic and that creepy Gollum guy. Even years after the last book in the trilogy was published in 1986, the world of Middle Earth is still seeing new films being added to its legacy.
Like many of us, you probably love the 'Harry Potter' books and are eagerly awaiting author J.K. Rowling's next children's book. If so, please don't be offended when we report that Rowling's next book will be her first adult novel, according to publisher Little, Brown.
Oh no you di'int, Daniel Radcliffe.
The former Harry Potter star, who's out promoting his latest film, 'The Woman in Black', told Radio Times he was disappointed ("miffed" as the Brits would say) that the final film in the franchise - 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2' - wasn't nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Especially "miffed" when you consider another certain Best Picture nominee.
Even though Harry Potter is over, that doesn't mean we can't see what the characters are up to. Now thanks to Daniel Radcliffe's appearance on 'SNL' last night, you can catch up with Harry, Hermione and all the rest. Take a look below.
Among other things, 2011 will be known as the year the 'Harry Potter' film series came to a close, and the year of LMFAO's mega hit 'Party Rock Anthem.'
