Message-ID: Hey Everyone! I work for a fun, little book publishing company that just released an anthology about HP through book 6 called Mapping the World of Harry Potter. It includes a bunch of mind boggling essays, some of which induce the giggles, especially from those that know the story best. We put a link so that ya'll can preview the essays (http://www.smartpopbooks.com/allbooks/index.html#MappingHarryPotter). I would love to know what you think!!!

Message-ID: <127.6c61989e.3118f6d6@...> I've read the chapter excerpts, and cannot tell you how intrigued and pleased I am. I am a writer and editor, and am particularly fussy about HP analyses, as they tend to be either sloppy in their research (a rather heavy academic HP tome misidentifies major characters, for example) or simply breathless and uncritical. This book will definitely have a place of honor on my HP shelf. Well done!

Music from fourth installment of the phenomenal Harry Potter film franchise, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire Original Motion Picture Soundtrack features a score by Academy Award-nominated composer Patrick Doyle, best known for his work on Donnie Brasco, Bridget Jones' Diary, Hamlet and Sense And Sensibility. Doyle takes over musical duties from John Williams, who composed the music for the last three Harry Potter films, which together were nominated for three Grammy Awards and two Oscars and sold more than a million copies worldwide. Also available as a digital download, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire Original Motion Picture Soundtrack includes liner notes from the film's director Mike Newell. The album also features three new original songs, two of which were written by acclaimed recording artist Jarvis Cocker and the third co-written by Cocker and Jason Buckle. The tracks -- "Do The Hippogriff," "Magic Works" and "This Is The Night" -- are performed by Jarvis Cocker, Jonny Greenwood, Phil Selway, Steve Claydon, Steve Mackey and Jason Buckle. Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire continues author J.K. Rowling's immensely popular Harry Potter novel series with Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) being selected to compete in the prestigious Triwizard Tournament, which pits him against older and more experienced students from Hogwarts and two rival European wizarding schools. Meanwhile, supporters of Harry's nemesis, the evil Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes), send a shockwave of fear throughout the wizard community when their Dark Mark scorches the sky at the Quidditch World Cup, signaling Voldemort's return to power. But for Harry, this is not the only harrowing news causing him anxiety - he still has yet to find a date for Hogwarts' Yule Ball dance. Warner Bros. Pictures presents a Heyday Films production of a Mike Newell film, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, starring Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Robbie Coltrane, Ralph Fiennes, Michael Gambon, Brendan Gleeson, Jason Isaacs, Gary Oldman, Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith and Timothy Spall. Directed by Mike Newell, the film is produced by David Heyman from a screenplay by Steve Kloves, based on the novel by J.K. Rowling. The executive producers are David Barron and Tanya Seghatchian. The director of photography is Roger Pratt, BSC; the production designer is Stuart Craig; the editor is Mick Audsley; the co-producer is Peter MacDonald; the costume designer is Jany Temime; Hedwig's Theme is composed by John Williams; and the music is by Patrick Doyle. Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment company, will release the film Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, on November 18, 2005 in the United States.
