I've seen some discussion here on who might be doing which of the 
following movies. Daniel made it very clear on Rosie that he is 
interested in doing all of them. She mentioned that he might become 
"...too tall?" and he immediately replied, "Wellll...Harry grows
along with the books...." to which they both agreed that it's WB 
limiting him to two movies and it is WB that will be making the 
decision. But the discussion ended with the impression that Daniel 
at this point would like to do them all.

Since Daniel is growing at an obvious rate, I found the food segment 
on Rosie enlightening. Rupert and Emma barely tried the goodies, but 
Daniel chowed right in, guzzling all the butter beer, including
trying to symbolically take the whole table in with his arms at the 
commercial break. Did anyone else notice that Rupert tentatively
takes a partial lick of the poprock drenched lollypop, but Daniel 
sticks the whole thing in his mouth (with various arm flails as the 
pop rock sensation grows while the camera is on to other things)? 

Which brings us to the MSNBC special the other night. Just how much 
Daniel has grown is apparent in them juxtaposing him speaking at his 
first press conference after getting the role with him speaking at
the recent premiere. He is very thin and growing, and a bottomless 
pit. This is underscored in the MSNBC shot of him asking Chris if
it's lunchtime yet during a scene. Columbus looks at his watch, says 
it's almost lunchtime, but doesn't stop, continues on with the scene, 
to which Daniel's immediate response is a very loud "DAMN!" (We had
to play that one over a couple times to see if we got that one
right!)(also, watch 'Seamus' turn to Dan with a "Yeah, yeah, you tell 
him!" type of response). 

About the 'bags' under Dan's eyes that others have mentioned, the
bags remind me of when he was much younger and in 'David Copperfield' 
so I'm not so sure in his case that it is a sign of being tired. It
might be a case of the lighting.

Thanks for indulging me. You can tell I'm old enough to be his mom. 
Rosie wants to toss him onto a roller coaster. I just want to go
bake him some brownies and make sure he has the extra large tub of 
popcorn at the movies.
