Subject: HP&DH to be released at Sectus!
Message-ID: <6493bc80702011003v37072d8cs8fc3935f367548ce@mail.gmail.com>

It All Ends at Sectus!

The Sectus committee is currently rejoicing at the news that Harry Potter
and the Deathly Hallows, the final book in the series, is to be released
during our conference.

This means that Sectus is not only the biggest Harry Potter conference ever
to have been held in Europe, but is also set to be the ultimate release
party.

In amongst the excitement, though, the Committee is hard at work making sure
the event can be adapted to the new circumstances. We will bring you further
details once the frantic phone calls and emails produce some results, but in
the meantime we can confirm the following:

* Arrangements are being made to secure books for all conference attendees
who require them at midnight on the release date.

* Space will be provided for those who wish to read through the night, at a
location to be confirmed.

* There will be a rigorous spoiler policy in effect throughout the event.

If you want to read the book overnight on Friday night, you'll have two days
to discuss and analyse the contents with hundreds of fellow fans.

And for those who do not wish to read the book immediately, alternative
programming will be provided, as originally planned, and there will be
procedures in place to ensure that those who wish to avoid spoilers are able
to do so.

We set up Sectus with the aim of celebrating the beginning of Harry Potter,
and now we're celebrating the end as well!

If you would like to download the official Sectus press release concerning
this news, it will be available shortly on our website at
http://www.sectus.org/press.php

And if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at
chair at sectus.org.

Regards

Elanor Isolda
Conference Chair
Sectus 2007

Celebrate the tenth anniversary of Harry Potter in the country where it all
began! http://www.sectus.org

I just saw these last night. As someone I know said "Hey, I'm all for Harry
Potter becoming the Naked Brooding Theater Guy but I wish he was 18". LOL!
I'm really interested to hear how he does though. In my mind, this is the
perfect time for him to be going this direction as it can only help his
Potter character too because lets face, Harry gets really complex
psychologically from book 4 on. Plus, it should help Dan overcome being so
pigeonholed as the little hero, which is probably going to be an enormous
challenge for him career wise. Few actors can overcome such a shadow.

GREAT photos, aren't they?  That photographer is  outstanding!  And Dan - 
wow, did he remodel himself or what?!  The  producer is quoted as saying he was 
"gobsmacked" to see such a well-developed  six-pack on someone that young.

It's interesting how publicity about Dan and/or Harry Potter seems to  come 
in spurts - Dan's photos are released on Tuesday, I believe it was, then  
create an uproar heard 'round the world (both good and bad - dumb people who  think 
he's "just" Harry Potter anyway!  Grrr.  And at 17, IN ENGLAND  HE'S LEGAL!!! 
 So people with that "age" thing need to get over it), then  the book release 
announcement in the same week.  I think Dan's career is  moving in 
interesting ways, with one project "feeding" another publicity.   OoP will be released 
in July (as will book 7) and "December Boys" will be  released in August while 
there's still a nice publicity "glow" from OoP.  I  don't know when "My Son 
Jack" will air in England, but hopefully it will appear  in the US as well - and 
if Warner Bros. and/or those handling Dan's career are  as smart as I think 
they are, they'll find some way to get even more publicity  for 
"My Son Jack" on the crest of the OoP/December Boys/Book 7 wave.   It's 
fascinating to watch good marketing in action!  (Well, to me, anyway,  since I have 
to do marketing in my own business as well.  Wish I could get  that kind of 
momentum going in my career!)

You are right. Have to say they are doing a great job of promoting him. I

My husband said today, as we were checking out the Washington Post's 
snippet on the Dan-in-the-nude shot,
"Bad career move...the play will probably flop and Dan will sink into 
oblivion."
Can we say JEALOUS?!?!? Ha!
I truly hope Dan does well in this venture. I'm still amazed that the 
shy little boy of 11 that we saw on interviews at the beginning of the 
HP series, will  be stripping down and simulating masturbation on a guy 
playing a horse. Yikes! That's a BOLD acting move on anyone's part. 
Apparently there will be some (no doubt premiumly priced) audience 
seats right there on stage! Talk about intimidation! I mean how does 
one work up the courage to do that? And at so young an age? Alan Strang 
is such an intense role overall...they say Dan has been taking voice 
lessons for about a year in preparation for this role. I've wondered if 
any of the kids take acting lessons or just get direction from the 
Director? Has anyone heard how Dan got this role? Did he go after it? 
Was he approached?
Sounds like he's taking it seriously.
I wish him all the best!!

Subject: Daniel in Equus- story found!
Message-ID: <eq1dcf+ncm6@eGroups.com>

I hope its ok to post this! I looked in the files and didn't see 
anything saying that a link to a story could not be posted.
I saw the post about Daniel being in Equus and thought everyone should 
know that there is a story posted at HPfandom that has Harry Potter 
staring in the same role in the play. Here is the link in case anyone 
would care to read it. It is a slash fic HP/SS.

Subject: promo pix of Dan for Equus
Message-ID: <cfb.840a494.32f64b92@aol.com>

The director said in an interview a month or so ago that Dan  auditioned for 
the role like anyone else, and had to beat out everyone else to  get the role. 
 He didn't get the part because he's a movie star, teen  heartthrob or Harry 
Potter.  He got it because he nailed the  audition.  In an interview posted 
online yesterday, Dan said he heard about  the part two years ago.  He mentions 
that Gary Oldman has appeared nude on  stage, and we all know Gary is one of 
Dan's heroes.  So Dan probably talked  the role over with Gary and other actors 
he admires to find out what he should  do.  He's been taking voice lessons 
for 18 months, so he's been preparing  to go on stage at some point whether he 
got the "Equus" role or not, or so it  appears - or maybe he already knew he 
had the part nailed?  Or else he was  preparing for it, I don't know.  I do 
think it's funny he said he couldn't  see himself doing full frontal nudity when 
he was interviewed about the bath  scene in GoF, yet by the time that was being 
filmed, he was probably already  thinking about doing "Equus."  In this 
interview 
(_http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/film/article-23384050-details/From+Harry+to+hunk/article.do_ 
(http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/film/article-23384050-details/From+Harry+to+hunk/article.do)  )  Dan says (about the nude scene):
 
>>"We've done the scene a couple of times in rehearsal. I had no  particular 
qualms. There's nothing that would stop me getting my kit off if  that's what 
the work demands. The key to serious acting is to lose your  inhibitions, to 
become free and fearless." <<

That's a big leap  from the shy little boy he used to be!  (And if you don't 
speak Brit slang,  "getting my kit off" means disrobing.)

The nude scene isn't the one where he's "masturbating" on horseback -  it's 
the botched love scene between him and the girl (who's also nude in the  
scene).

Thanks for the link! And for the translation! I thought maybe 'getting  
my kit off' had other connotations!! Ha!
The one thing that I find a little disconcerting is that the whole  
excitement of seeing Dan's first sweet & innocent on-screen kiss with  
Cho in July, is now eclipsed by the way more daring role in Equus.
I kinda wish he'd waited till the HP series was over to take such a  
daring acting leap. 'Course that's probably not for another 3 years,  
and it wouldn't be fair to expect him to put his future on hold. I just  
hope he doesn't outgrow his Harry role (in his own mind) and not want  
to complete the series. He looks like such a MAN in those Equus  
pictures!
I was watching an old Rosie O'Donnell interview when HP1 first came  
out. She was talking to Richard Harris and asking what he thought of  
taking on the role of Dumbledore. He said something to the effect of  
"now I guess I'm signing on for all 7 movies". That made me soooo sad!  
But let's hope everyone else in the cast makes it through to the end.  
That would truly be a coup in film history. Even bigger than the 5 Star  
Wars films.

You were so right, saying that he looks like a man in the Equus pictures thre Valerie!  I read the article, and it's really good.  I can't believe I dared to look at the pics.... and to think I felt dirty watching the tub scene in GOF.... He was very muscular there too!  :D

Though I disagree about waiting until all the HP films were done.  I feel that if he wants to broaden himself as an actor, he has a right to do it, and if he can find the time to do it in-between HP film shootings, then he should.  It will definitely show he has all-rounded talent.  I'd love to see December Boys and My Boy Jack, and see him take a different approach through acting.

I was sitting here biting my nails, wondering how Dan's very first 
performance of Equus went tonight. So I went to DanRadcliffe.co.uk and 
here is a brief review of someone who saw the show...wow!!! I'm so 
proud of him! :-)

  Brief Preview of Equus
Posted by Page
I've just returned from what can only be described as an amazing 
evening. I had the pleasure of previewing EQUUS and Dan's performance 
left me literally speechless. To say the least, his portrayal of Alan 
Strang, along with Richard Griffiths as Psychiatrist, Martin Dysart, 
was an intense and powerful emotional experience. I can't wait to share 
the finer details with you, however, I would like a few days to allow 
the experience to sink in so that I can do the play justice and I will 
be seeing the play again from a different angle tomorrow. I will share 
with you now, that Dan received a tremendous standing ovation which was 
truly well deserved and would be personally shocked if anyone seeing 
the play considered Dan's performance anything less than stellar.

Jenna at _www.danradcliffe.com_ (http://www.danradcliffe.com)  has  done a 
complete review, and it's truly amazing.  I always said that young  man was 
going to be one fine actor, and probably a character actor as well as a  leading 
man (which gives him a much longer and more interesting career than just  a 
"leading  man" kind of actor has).  Looks like I was right!   Sure wish I

Wow, thanks for that, Valerie.  I'm sure it was a great performance.  I'd love to read the "finer details," if you can post them here.  Thanks again, I think the group is finally posting again since February began!  And I hope everyone here had a happy Valentine's Day, even though I didn't have a boyfriend to share it with.

bboyminn:

Only slightly related side note. I read the 

DanRadcliffe.co.uk

...review and it seems like the performance was very
good. Then I started looking for other reviews. I
did find one where a very hardened and jaded reviewer
said he was moved to tears by the performance.

Odd thing; first I checked the general news sites, 
then I went specifically to London Theaters websites
...not a word. I would assume that every London 
Theater News journal/newspaper/magazine/website
would have had a reviewer at the performance, yet not
a word from any of them.

In a sense, it illustrates how out of touch and out
of date modern media is. Fans using fansites, journals,
and blogs get the news out there faster and more
objectively than the professionals. It's a brave new
world.

And on that note, I am out of here.

In all fairness, Equus is still in preview until later this month.
Professional mainstream media reviewers won't be reviewing until the formal
opening.  The play is still being realized by the directors and actors. The
preview experience with actors is important, but these performances are
definitely not the finished product. Believe me, this is a high-profile
production. When it opens on Feb. 27, there will be lots and lots of reviews
to read.

The Danradcliffe.com WAS a very well thought out review. I thoroughly 
enjoyed it.
I also was scanning the internet looking for reviews yesterday and only 
saw the Sun review. I hadn't realized that the actual opening night was 
the 27th. (a Tuesday?! Isn't that unusual? I'd think it would be on a 
Friday or Saturday night??)
Does anyone know how many 'preview' performances there will be? I think 
I read Friday night, Sat. matinee, Sat night. I'm sure it was a full 
house each time. I guess the reviewers from the big newspapers won't 
review till actual Opening Night. Then I'm sure there will be lots of 
talk and photos. Speaking of which, did you see that shot of Dan's 
backside!? Nice workout at the gym, Dan!
I still find myself grinning when I think of all the positive things 
I've read so far about this performance. And not just from the fan 
sites...I believe it was the Sun article that said something to the 
effect - this may be the performance that launches the career of the 
next great British actor! (not the exact words, but the gist...can't 
find the article right now and my daughter Bella wants to play on 
Disney.com!!! (nope I didn't name her after Bellatrix! :-)

I saw this movie on Friday with my girls. It was very well reviewed, 
however I agree with the reviewer who said that Disney (probably 
intentionally) misrepresented it in their marketing campaign. It was 
described as a 'watered-down' Harry Potter or Lion, Witch & Wardrobe. 
But was so much more (probably in the parents' eyes) and so much less 
(in the kids' eyes). The fantasy land CG creatures were very secondary 
and minimal to the plot. It was really all about human relationships 
(between friends, family). Then there was a total tear-jerker ending 
that stunned me and probably others who also had not read the book. 
Most of the kids leaving the theatre looked as though they were 
disappointed in the film. My nine year old said "That was definitely 
NOT my favorite movie". Though she almost cried at the sad scene and 
it's hard to get a reaction out of HER! It rather bugs me that Disney 
misrepresented this film obviously for $$$. They are still trying to 
hype it up to the kids with games about the mythical creatures, etc. A 
sad commentary on our society. Why can't they just market this film to 
t'weens and up, as the beautifully-crafted film about human emotions, 
that it is? Guess that doesn't sell! :-(
Reminds me of when the Potter films come out and they try to market it 
to young kids on up. When the books are obviously getting darker and 
more teen-and-up oriented. I'm guessing the next 3 films will also be 
PG-13.

I have been so upset by the ad campaign for this movie.  I loved this book
when I read it in school and could only picture taking children to this
movie based on the adds.  I have been nearly yelling at the TV each time
they came on.  I am so sorry that you and many other parents out there will
be ill prepaired to deal with what the movie is actually about.

It is a fantastic book and worth the read for 6-8 graders.

Snape was shot.

Carol responds:

Can you tell me where you heard the information or rumor about that
scene being deleted? It seems crucial to the plot to me--Snape has to
tell Harry about the lessons, inform Black that he was seen in dog
form by Lucius Malfoy, and taunt Black with cowardice, providing Harry
with an excuse for blaming Black's death on Snape. Also, so much
backstory was cut from the PoA film that we need to see at least a
hint of the so-called Prank in their residual antipathy. Anyway, I'd
appreciate a link if you can provide one.

is hoping for as much Snape as possible in the OoP film

  akh pipes up:
  As another poster pointed out, the press is not expected to review the play until later.  In fact, producers can be very testy when it comes to reviewers showing up before they're invited.  A friend of mine was in the original production of The Producers when it was previewing in Chicago, and they forbade anyone to review the show prior to press night, which was shortly before they left for their Broadway debut.  
  My friend said that they were changing the show right up to press night, so the reviewer seeing a first preview wouldn't have been reviewing the show as it appeared on Broadway, anyway.  I doubt they're doing quite that extensive reworking on this one, since it's a revival, but I'd heard (probably from all of you) that Peter Schaffer (sp?) was involved in this, so you never know.
  akh, who agrees the media can be out to lunch, but has some inside info that they're at the mercy of the theatres when it comes to reviews

Thanks Heather,
I would like to read the book for myself and keep it for my girls when 
they reach middle school. They are in the 2nd grade and I think the 
messages in the film were over their head, for the most part. I found 
the movie bittersweet and touching and certainly worth viewing (for 
ages 11+)

I read an article recently (sorry, can't think  where) that said "a trembling 
Dan Radcliffe auditioned for Peter Schaffer at the  Old Vic two years ago," 
so yeah, he's involved in the revival.  I think he  supervised the script 
revisions that brought the 1970s references up to date,  among other things.  This 
article and another one I saw somewhere both said  he was delighted with Dan's 
casting as Alan.

bboyminn:

Yes, absolutely; I read that too, but it went one step
farther than that. Peter Schaffer wasn't to eager to 
have the play revived. I had been turning down 
production offers for decades. Finally he was convinced
to allow the play to be produced again, but on one
condition, he got first approval for the actor playing
Alan Strang.

What that means is that Dan did not get this role 
because he was friends with other actors or because
he was Harry Potter. Dan auditioned for the author of
the play, an author who had denied many other attempts
at producing the play, and he was chosen by the author
as being capable of pulling it off. 

The author wasn't just present during the audition, he
had full and exclusive approval of the actor. Keep in 
mind this was TWO years ago. Dan has certainly grown
as an actor and as a person during that time, so that
must have been one amazing audition.

A lot of people complain that Dan and the other actors
are a bit 'wooden' in the HP preformances. I am quick
to point out to them that the actors can never be
better than what they are given to work with. 

Once again, I rant on that Warner is completely short 
sighted in producing these books. JKR has written 
deep and rich, and the movie makers are determined to
do no more than scratch the surface. In another thread
I complained that the addtional scenes in one of the 
movies was only 10 to 15 minutes. If they had left it
in, the whole story would have made more sense, 
characters and plotline would have been developed, but
2.5 hours meant more to Warner than a movie that made
sense. That is a clear indication of screwed up 
priorities.

What I really hope for is that some TV-movie production
company will make a mini-series out of these books, say
one hour a day for a week with a two hour climax. Six 
hours that might do justice to the depth of character,
the emotional impact, the sly humor of each story. I
think the TV watching world would be riveted to the
screens. 

As to Warner, concentrate on making a good movie, and
the length won't matter. I once again paraphrase Roger
Ebert; no good movie can ever be too long, and no bad
movie can ever be too short. 

Just ranting and raving.

"What's On Stage" website has a pretty good review of 
Dan in 'Equus'. A lot of the data is complied from other
sources, but it is done in an intelligent and insightful
way and is well worth the read -

"Horse Sense from Harry Potter"
http://www.whatsonstage.com/index.php?pg=207&story=E8821171888242

Further the 'What's on Stage' discussion board has some
reviews from several people who have attended the Preview
Performance.

Plays
http://www.whatsonstage.com/board/index.php?showforum=5

This will bring you to the Discussion Board main PLAYS
page. From this page select - " Equus: First Peview Review"

Or, follow this link directly to the discussion -
http://www.whatsonstage.com/board/index.php?showtopic=140

Sample of one comment -

"I went to this with a sense of trepidation. I am not a
fan of Peter Shaffer ... I certainly am no advocator of 
the Daniel Radcliffe fan-base either (can the boy actually
act?)."

"What I have experienced this evening is everything that
is right about theatre.  ...stunningly relevant and modern"

"Daniel Radcliffe gives an assured stage debut. "


Just passing it along.

It's a nice promo article, but isn't a review of the play. Again, look for
those day after the formal opening.

bboyminn:

Right, I noticed that after I posted. The article in
question is really more of a general information or
biographic overview of Dan. Still it is well written 
and intelligent. Far better than most of the 'copied'
clap-trap I read. 

Most of the reviews were positive. The worst review from
the Discussion Board that I remember simply said Dan was
good. Though another said he was 'majestic'. If the
worst thing that can be said about you is that you are
good, that's not such a bad thing.

Maybe then I should ask, Heather, do you recommend the book to adults too?  I love fantasy books, and I had never heard of Bridge to Terabithia until I saw ads for the movie.  I love HP, Lord of the Rings, The Wheel of Time, and I would love to read Eragon and/or the Chronicles of Narnia if I ever get the chance.  I guess try to compare it to those, and if anyone would mention a recommendation (or not), then please let me know.

While I would recommend it to adults, it is not a fantasy.  The film maker
has chosen to show something which is never intended to be actually
happening in the story.  It is  the children?s imagination as they role play
(for lack of a more precise term).  I often recommend ?children?s? books to
adults (occupational hazard of being a third grade teacher).  I just read
Eragon and enjoyed it, not as much as I had hoped, but it was ok.  If you
want a great read (and haven?t yet read it) I would recommend The Giver, by
Lois Lowry.

Oh dear, I wish I could give you a specific quote, but it was a long 
time ago -- I think during the early production of OotP.  It wasn't 
HPFGU-Movie as I've only become a member recently, more likely on the 
CoS forum or a Snape Yahoo group.  Everyone was upset of course and we 
fretted that SWM wouldn't be filmed.  Yes, it must have been early on 
because the Marauders had yet to be cast.

Page has finally given us an awesomely detailed review of her two 
viewings of Equus - from an above-stage seat and center stalls (as I 
guess they call them in the UK). Check it out!
I am so proud of our Dan! It sounds like he has really astounded the 
audiences with his stage acting. Sobbing uncontrollably in the arms of 
Richard Griffiths!?!?!? Dang I wish I had money to fly to London and 
see this!!! Ah well I shall have to live vicariously through those 
fortunate enough to experience this amazing play. I am soooooooooo 
envious!!!

Message-ID: <c83.f119b6b.330c682a@aol.com>

>>Yes, absolutely; I read that too, but it  went one step
farther than that. Peter Schaffer wasn't to eager to 
have  the play revived. I had been turning down 
production offers for decades.  Finally he was convinced
to allow the play to be produced again, but on  one
condition, he got first approval for the actor playing
Alan  Strang.

What that means is that Dan did not get this role 
because he  was friends with other actors or because
he was Harry Potter. Dan auditioned  for the author of
the play, an author who had denied many other  attempts
at producing the play, and he was chosen by the author
as being  capable of pulling it off. 

The author wasn't just present during the  audition, he
had full and exclusive approval of the actor. Keep in 
mind  this was TWO years ago. Dan has certainly grown
as an actor and as a person  during that time, so that
must have been one amazing audition.

A lot  of people complain that Dan and the other actors
are a bit 'wooden' in the HP  preformances. I am quick
to point out to them that the actors can never  be
better than what they are given to work with. <<
 
Steve, thanks for posting this and the links to the  discussion of the play!  
I don't know that much about legitimate theater,  so reading your comments 
was most enlightening.  One of the people who  reviewed the play in that 
discussion forum said even Peter Shaffer joined the  standing ovation at the end!

Those of you who've been on this board a while know that I have ALWAYS  said 
Dan's got the makings of a great actor.  I blame the directors and the  
scripts for his not being able to show his range in the HP films (although  he 
showed a much broader range of emotion in GoF).  Since he's been  preparing for 
"Equus" for 18 months, perhaps (hopefully!) the training he's had  for that will 
shine through in OotP!  We can only hope!!  The stills  I've seen from OotP 
show a tremendous amount of emotion in his expressions,  which are much less 
broadly played than in the early films.  I sure wish I  could see him in "Equus" 
- it sounds like an amazing experience.  Perhaps  it will come to Broadway 
between the filming of HBP and Deathly Hallows and  MAYBE I'll be able to see it 
then!  
 
Hope springs eternal and all that. . .

Theaters are usually dark (ie. closed) on Mondays, so a Tuesday 
opening is not unusual.  The usual 8 performance work week in theater 
is Tuesday thru Sunday evenings, with a Wednesday and Saturday 
matinee.  Every theater is different, but that is the norm for 
professional theaters.

Steve:  I agree that this comment is made about Dan's portrayal of 
Harry all too often.  It's my opinion that Dan deliberately has 
chosen to make Harry a very circumspect and closed-off individual.  
After all he's supposed to have lived for ten years of his life 
under the very oppressive regime of the Dursleys!  For goodness sake 
they didn't exactly encourage self-expression.  I believe that 
Christopher Columbus would have asked for an appropriate portrayal 
and that as he has progressed as an actor and a very insightful one, 
he would put himself in Harry's position and kept a lot of 
demonstration of emotion to himself.

Actually, Equus is playing Mondays through Saturdays and not on 
Sundays (I have tickets for a Monday evening performance), so it is 
a bit unusual to have the 'official' opening on a Tuesday. In the 
long run, though, it doesn't really matter as long as everyone is 
well prepared!

I see they've cast someone named Robbie Jarvis to play the part of
young James. I just don't get it. It seems to me that the perfect
person to play that part is a fellow by the name of Daniel Radcliffe.
It's a no brainer, just ditch the glasses and the scar and he'd be
perfect. Has anyone read an explanation for this bewildering state of

akh speculates:
  That was my first reaction, too.  It's also a great opportunity for an actor, to come up with subtle differences that lead an audience to believe Dan is playing James.  
  The only thing I can come up with (and it's personal speculation only; I've heard nothing official about the reasoning) is that they could be shooting two scenes at once if they used another actor for James, since Harry's in virtually every other scene.  I don't remember when they shot the "prank" scene, so my other speculation that they could shoot that scene while Dan was off taking tests can't be backed by timing.
  akh, who would have loved to have seen what Dan did to make James a different character from Harry.  Ah, well...

It's not the 'prank' scene, but Snape's Worst Memory.  At least to my 
mind the 'prank' is when James saved Severus from a transforming 
Lupin.

Photos of the SWM being filmed were released last summer and  Dan is  
standing off to the side as an observer.

Just my opinion, of course, but The-Powers-That-Be probably thought 
casting Dan as James was too much of a gimmick.  That's assuming they 
even considered doing it.

  Although Dan standing around during shooting doesn't necessarily negate the possibility that he could take a break, since showing up is much easier than running lines, learning blocking and taking direction, you make an excellent point.  They may have thought Dan's too identifiable as Harry and the audience won't be able to get past "Dan's doing both roles!" to suspend disbelief in the scene.  Who knows?  Maybe Dan's negotiators asked for more money for two roles, and they decided another actor was cheaper!

That's the way it is in the U.S., but in the U.K., the 8 performance 
week starts on Monday and finishes on Saturday, with Sundays dark for 
most theatres. Matinees in London vary.  Most are Wednesday and 
Saturday, but a couple of shows (like Evita) have Thursday matinees.  
Lion King does have Sunday matinees, but I think that's one of the few 
in London which does.

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear.  Dan isn't standing around 
observing as himself, he's *in* the scene as Harry watching Young!

Now that I see him in the wig and costume, I really, really like the

hostile, unkempt - pretty much exactly as I pictured him when reading 
the book.

  akh adds, after deleting Zara's admiring comments about young Snape: 
  I liked the look of Snape, too.  I also see that they apparently decided to cast a James Potter that looks like the actor playing the adult James, rather than a slightly different Harry, as described in the book.   Within the context of the movies, that's probably better.  Although most of us can't fathom watching the movies without reading the books, my boyfriend is just such a one (however much I've been badgering him to read the damn books, already!).  It would probably make more sense to him as WB/the director has decided to cast it.

This is exciting! Thanks for sharing...I've been so curious about the 
casting of the Marauders. Snape does look PERFECT!  James looks a bit 
young to me; almost like a Harry Potter from HP1 or HP2. Maybe it's the 
hair? I envisioned  him a bit more suave and cool based on his 
cockiness in the book(??) Young Sirius looks Gary Oldman-ish, though I 
still wish they'd cast Sirius with long, straight dark hair, dang it! 
Movie Sirius just doesn't look like Book Sirius to me. And I'm guessing 
that's Lupin in the background? Pettigrew looks good too. I can't wait 
for this scene in OotP! Soooo glad they didn't cut it out! I love the 
Marauder back story.

Subject: HBP to be filmed in Ireland??
Message-ID: <ers604+jh5b@eGroups.com>

Leaky has a short news blurb saying the producers are scouting 
locations in Ireland to shoot HBP.  Apparently they think they've used 
up all the viable locations in England and Scotland (which I think is 
pretty funny, having been to England and seen some FABULOUS locations 
that haven't appeared in HP films yet!)

Message-ID: <6493bc80702271519y18940c0dl6605809f3685152d@mail.gmail.com>

Just a reminder that the deadline for Sectus proposals is February 28th.

If you have a Deathly Hallows theory then Sectus is your *last* chance to
present it before the book release, which will happen right in the middle of
the conference. Whether your theory's plausible or completely insane (or
perhaps a bit of both), we want to hear from you.

We're also accepting proposals for papers, panels, roundtables or workshops
on any Potter-related subject from the academic to the frivolous. Full
details are available at http://www.sectus.org/programme.php, or ask me
off-list if you have any questions.

Regards

Subject: It's good to be right!!!
Message-ID: <es48r4+fo0h@eGroups.com>

I've said for years now that Dan Radcliffe was a great actor, and the 
reviews for Equus are certainly bearing that out.  Kudos to Dan for 
doing such good work and getting fabulous reviews!  You can see the 
whole list at http://www.danradcliffe.com, including some video 
interviews with Dan and Richard Griffiths.

On another note, some of the videos/articles mention huge throngs of 
Harry Potter fans waiting for a glimpse of Dan.  He has come out and 
signed autographs after several performances, but the rest of the cast 
doesn't want to be bothered by the crowd.  Two reports said that 
Richard Griffiths and Jenny Agutter both climbed out a window to escape 
without seeing the crowds!  LOL!
