I would greatly recommend this emotional video to everyone who likes the Harry Potter movies, or the art of film making.

It’s about the last days of the actors on set.

Thanks for that video Spirit! It’s crazy that it’s ending!

So my friends are having a big party the night of the premier. We’re going to watch the last two movies, eat Harry Potter themed food, and dress up. It’ll be great.

That sounds awesome Kenzie! My friend and me made butterbeer a couple weeks ago, it was delicious :smiley: Have fun!

My friends and I are dressing up in our Hogwartian uniforms and getting there at least two hours early. It looks like every theater in the building is sold out, so it’s gonna be crazy

#124

I no and even though i no what happens ill still cry cause its over.

#125

They are broadcasting the red carpet premiere live on YouTube tonight at 8:00. I don’t have anything else to do, so whatever.

#126

It’s being broadcast in 5 minutes! :smiley:

#127

I don’t care too much about red carpets, and I’m about to leave, but I’ll watch it for a couple of minutes.

#128

I didn’t get to see it :frowning: How was it??

#129

It was pretty awesome :slight_smile:. Lots of interviews, which I really liked. Shame Edith Bowman was co-presenting, bleugh! 8D

#130

I didnt see it :cry:
Oh well I was at the boardwalk!

#131

Wow. How many great actors has the franchise had.

Even when I don’t think they all were good at portraying their characters, they’re an impressive casting.

#132

Yeah some of them dont look or act like they do in the book

#133

Exactly.

For example, Jim Broadbent is one of my favorite actors ever, but he was totally miscast (or bad characterized) in his role.

#134

Yeah nut shes perfert for beletrix

#135

Most people think HBC is perfect for Bellatrix, but I disagree. She’s not exactly like her counterpart in the books.

She’s certainly funny, anyway. Her “We won! We won!” in Part II cracks me up. But she acts like HBC acts in most her roles.

There are a few actors that I think have nailed the character near perfectly.

#136

I’m a big fan of HBC! She’s great.

#137

Actually, HBC was almost exactly how I imagined Bellatrix to be! Although she does essentially play herself in everything :smiley:
I thought that Robbie Coltrane and Jason Isaacs had the best casting in terms of visualisation.

#138

Well, yes, of course most people love HBC, but I’m talking in strict terms of the books. I do agree that Coltrane and Isaacs are among the best.

And yes, the reviews are very positive. It holds 100% in RT this far:

Ugh! I forgot to watch the live red carpet premiere! And I’m the one that posted about it in the first place… :angry:
