Ooooooooo. Those Dementors in the background remind me of Gustave Dore.

Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

This one looks like it'll be the best of the three. I can't wait.

Anybody know where I can find a good version of the trailor for this? The only one I've seen (official website) ridiculously sucks.

I agree. I have a feeling this will be the best of the series thus far, what with Alfonso at the helm.

Hermione's gonna be hot.
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

Gonna be?
We often went to the cinema, the screen would light up and we would tremble, but also, increasingly often, Madeleine and I were disappointed. The images had dated, they jittered, and Marilyn Monroe had gotten terribly old. We were sad, this wasn't the film we had dreamed of, this wasn't the total film that we all carried around inside us, this film that we would have wanted to make, or, more secretly, no doubt, that we would have wanted to live.

Cuaron Impressed Columbus

Chris Columbus, producer of the upcoming Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, told SCI FI Wire that he's particularly impressed with how director Alfonso Cuaron, who assumed the director's chair from him following Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, has handled several key sequences in the new film. "As a director I've always been excited about sequences," Columbus said in an interview. "When I talk about my favorite films it's always certain moments in a film, certain sequences, whether it's Michael Corleone sitting in that restaurant right before he's about to shoot the sergeant or whether it's Marlon Brando and Rod Steiger in the back seat of the car in On the Waterfront."

Columbus, who said he's already seen Azkaban three times, added, "In Azkaban, that kind of scene for me is the first attack on the train by the Dementors. It's such a beautifully directed scene that Alfonso has done. I remember that scene immensely. And there's also Harry's (Daniel Radcliffe) first ride on the hippogryph, which is just magical and poetic. Those are the two scenes that really stick with me. I keep thinking about those scenes constantly and [also about] how proud I am to be involved in them, but mostly how wonderful a job Alfonso has done as a director."

Was Columbus particularily happy with the way that Cuaron used the kids as more than just 2 second cutaway reactions? That probably blows Columbus' mind, cos that's all he can do...

Dursleys are 'cut from Potter 4'

The film of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire looks like it will be a Dursley-free zone, with none of Harry's family featuring in the fourth movie.

Actor Richard Griffiths' agent told Newsround Online that Richard was "very disappointed" not to be appearing as Uncle Vernon in the film.

Griffiths also told a newspaper that he was hoping for a fans' revolt.

He said he'd even asked JK Rowling to try and get his character re-instated, but the fourth book is very long.

Griffiths is reported as saying "I said to JK Rowling: "Couldn't the Dursleys turn up to an open day at Harry's school or something,' but she said, 'I don't think so'."

The book of The Goblet of Fire is so long that there as no way that the filmmakers could fit everything into the movie.

It now looks as if the action will start at The Burrow or the Quidditch World Cup.

Although he says he won't be in this film, Richard Griffith says he's hoping to be back for Order of the Phoenix.

That's actually a brilliant move. The same structure of beginning at home every time was getting old real fast.

It's necessary to trim the unnecessary for the fourth film, for sure.

It would be good to start it at the Quiddich world cup because that's where the bulk of the story begins anyway.

Order of Phoenix will have to, at least, have Dudley in it though, very important scene.

did I just dork out?

The fifth movie will need the entire family. Remember the howler...I'd say that's pretty important and worth the extra 20 seconds.
