Thursday and more Harry Potter

EDITOR'S NOTE: HERE WE ARE IN THE TROUGH BETWEEN HP BOOK 6 AND HP MOVIE 4. BUT THE HP STUFF KEEPS ON FLOWING IN. (PRAISE BE!)

New Wizard of the Month on JKRowling.com
Gaspard Shingleton
1959 – present.

Celebrated inventor of the Self-Stirring Cauldron. EDITOR'S NOTE: NOT THAT I GAVE IT A LOT OF THOUGHT, BUT I'M SURPRISED THIS IS SUCH A RECENT INVENTION. (EVEN IN THE WIZARDING WORLD, WOMEN'S WORK PLAYS SECOND FIDDLE....OR, CAULDRON).

Mike Newell briefly talks GOF
A new article hit the AP wire that quotes the director of Goblet of Fire talking about his favorite part of filming:

"Aside from everything else, these are school stories," Newell said. "In a middle-of-the-road English education, the teachers are embattled, the school is a very kind of anarchic place and a very funny place, as well. Where two sets of people — one of which is becoming adults and one of which is trying to avoid going back to becoming children — clash."

The anarchy of youth, it is really rich stuff. I loved that. I loved doing the school side of it."

Don't expect a lot of school-related scenes though. MuggleNet reader Hope, who was one of a select few who got an early look at the film, says only one class appeared-- Moody's Unforgivable Curses lesson EDITOR'S NOTE: YEAH....I WOULD THINK THAT WOULD BE A TOP PRIORITY.....

Four new behind-the-scenes pictures
This great set comes from the Bulgarian HP site Potter-Mania.com.

Each one shows Mike Newell, director of Goblet of Fire, working with the actors:









High resolution version of French HBP cover
Thanks to L'Univers de Harry Potter we now have a high-resolution version of the cover for the French translation of the sixth book, Harry Potter et le Prince de Sang-Mêlé.


EDITOR'S NOTE: PURTY (AS THEY SAY IN FRENCH)?
