Harry Potter and the goblet of fire – latest news What the movie will not show Producer David Heyman spoke to Sci Fi Wire about what not to expect from the fourth movie: “Anything not related to Harry and his journey is less relevant. That does not mean that there will not be minimum details, they exist inevitably, but there are some things that are showed in the book with details that we cannot afford to waste time on, just by its nature.” For example, the movie will not show the parallel story of Winky and Dobby, as well as Hermione’s struggle for the freedom of house-elves. “That is something about Hermione” David Heyman says, “That does not mean that she is not important, Hermione is of vital importance to the story, but you have to make some choices… A chunk of information… We placed it in some other character, and that does not affect the whole plot. The main story works perfectly without the elves story, and we spoke to JK Rowling and she accepts that fact.” The new sets Sci Fi Wire went into the set, including the hugely spacious tent of the Weasleys in the Quidditch World Cup. The new film sets include the huge tent, an enormous cemetery (where the movie climax takes place), a trophy room full with silver trophies of various sizes, the balcony of the Ministry in the World Cup and the courtroom that raises several aspects of the main story. The producers also built an enormous pool covered in blue screens where Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and other actors will perform the underwater scenes, which will be then enhanced in post production by CGI. There is also a gigantic arena built outside where Harry and the other competitors will fight the dragons for one of their tasks in the Triwizard Tournament. Hogwarts’ main hall was transformed in the Yule Ball room. Every surface is silvery, with big chunks of ice coming from the ceiling, and there is a gigantic Christmas tree on the centre of the room. Heyman also revealed that the ball sequence will have the Weird Sisters, a band that includes vocalist Jarvis Cocker and other members of Radiohead and Pulp, which will give the movie a more up-to-date atmosphere. “It’s well interesting” Heyman says. “It’s good. That is really a turnaround in this entire “Harry thing”; I think people will like to see this world grow. I think the tasks are great and the children (Daniel, Emma and Rupert) are better actors now. You can see some things in this movie, acting wise, that you could not see in the first, and that you noticed growing in the second and third.” Another curiosity: There had been rumours about Neville going to substitute Dobby in helping Harry on his second task. These rumours have now been enforced by Heyman’s comment above, where he says that a chunk of information was placed in another character. On March 20th 2005, it has been announced by the producers that the main scenes with the main characters were finished filming, and that they were now concentrating on the minor importance scenes, going then to post production. Since there are already three or more trailers and teasers, it is supposed that the movie is actually already in post production, very close to its end. Nevertheless, the movie will go to cinemas in the UK and elsewhere on November 18th.

Review: Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody By Franki (aka missfranki2every1)

This book tells the story of Barry Trotter, the most famous wizard of Hogswash, the most famous school in the wizarding world. So important to the school, Barry, has been awarded a life-long scholarship, and therefore has permission to stay on as long as he wishes! So at 22, he hangs around the grounds of the school, doing as he wishes, and living off the hype of his groupies. When the studio giant, Wagner Bros wants to make the film off him, Trotter sets of on a quest to stop them. This book hasn't got a great storyline, but its wit makes it great! The book obviously wanting to poke fun at the Harry Potter craze, lives up to its expectations. Changing all our beloved characters into paranoid and shameless people. This books starts of very funny, but gets tiresome and boring very soon! All in all, no book could beat the original JK Rowling books! They're great, and being a dedicated Harry potter fan, I found the Trotter Series trying to out smart Rowling's humour slightly too much. This is a funny read though, and I would defiantly recommend it!
