Updated: 16-Year-Old Explodes Due to Delay of 'Harry Potter 6'

15 August 2008 3:59 AM, PDT | From Rope Of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news

Voldemort made me do it...

Photo: Warner Bros. Update: Alan Horn, Warner Bros. president and chief operating officer, told the Associated Press, "The picture is completely, absolutely, 100 percent on schedule, on time. There were no delays. I've seen the movie. It is fabulous. We would have been perfectly able to have it out in November." Just thought I would throw a little fuel on the fire as this is sure to upset Potter fans considering that means Warner Bros. is just holding on to a finished project and making the little muggles of the world three online petitions mad. Thanks Hpana for the heads up! Flawed Hero, a commenter at the Harry Potter fansite Hpana who lists himself as a 16-year-old Potter fanatic, may not be with us too much longer. Upon yesterday's announcement of the delay of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to July 17, 2009 he said this on Hpana's message boards.

'Harry Potter 6' Moves to July 2009

14 August 2008 5:00 PM, PDT | From Rope Of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news

Official word is in and Warner Bros. has moved Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from its November 21, 2008 release date to July 17, 2009. Warner sudio chief Alan Horn said, "We know the summer season is an ideal window for a family tent pole release, as proven by the success of our last Harry Potter film, which is the second-highest grossing film in the franchise, behind only the first installment. Additionally, like every other studio, we are still feeling the repercussions of the writers' strike, which impacted the readiness of scripts for other films.changing the competitive landscape for 2009 and offering new windows of opportunity that we wanted to take advantage of. We agreed the best strategy was to move Half-Blood Prince to July, where it perfectly fills the gap for a major tent pole release for mid-summer." On the bright side it means it won't be such a long wait until

First Pic Of Jake Gyllenhaal From Prince Of Persia

12 August 2008 9:56 AM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news

We’ve got the first pic from the upcoming Prince of Persia movie, with star Jake Gyllenhaal trying his best to look the part of titular Prince Dastan. (What, they couldn’t find a Persian actor to play the part?)

I bet right about now Naveen Andrews is feeling pretty slighted.

Anyway, Prince of Persia is based on the popular video game about a young prince (Gyllenhaal) who is tricked by an evil wizard (Ben Kingsley) into unleashing the evil sands of time. The film is being directed by Mike Newell (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) and is currently slated for a May 28, 2010 release.

Take a look at the pic and let us know what you think about Gyllenhaal as the Prince of Persia. (Ladies, try not to get too giddy. Fellas, you either.)

Jake as Persia Prince

11 August 2008 1:56 PM, PDT | From JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news

The movie's release date may have been pushed back to 2010, but that hasn't prevented Jake Gyllenhaal from getting into enviable physical shape for the production of Prince Of Persia, currently shooting in Morocco. Mike Newell (Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, Donnie Brasco) is directing the flick, based on the popular videogame series. I haven't played any of the games since the original side-scroller, which resulted in many plunges into spiked pits, but I assume the movie will have...

Pulp Fiction Named Best Film On New Classics List

20 June 2008 10:27 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

Pulp Fiction has topped a new magazine poll to find the best film of the past 25 years.

The Quentin Tarantino cult favourite beat the Lord of The Rings trilogy and Titanic to land at the top of Entertainment Weekly's New Classics list.

The publication claims the 1994 film "opened a new universe of mainstream storytelling".

Also on the movie list is Toy Story, Saving Private Ryan, Blue Velvet and Hannah and Her Sisters.

Meanwhile, The Silence of The Lambs was named the best movie poster, The A-Team nabbed the best TV theme song and The Simpsons beat The Sopranos and Seinfeld to land the best TV show on the small screen New Classics list.

In music, Prince's Purple Rain was named the top album, ahead of Lauryn Hill's The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and Achtung Baby by U2.

And J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter + The Goblet of Fire came in second on the New Classics books list, behind Cormac McCarthy's The Road.

Finally, Madonna's wedding dress-clad appearance at the 1984 MTV Video Music Awards beat the opening credits of TV show Sex and The City for the top Pop Culture Moment that Rocked Fashion, and Angels In America was named the top stage show of the past 25 years.

Bloom To Get $40 Million Paycheck? Not On Your Life, Says Disney

9 April 2008 10:34 AM, PDT | From Studio Briefing | See recent Studio Briefing news

An on-its-face laughable report that Orlando Bloom would receive $40 million to star in a movie based on the video game Prince of Persia spread all over the Internet Monday until Disney got wind of it and attempted to stomp it out. Late in the day, the website Coming Soon reported that the studio said that there was no truth to the report. "What we do know so far is that Mike Newell (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) is expected to start shooting Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time soon at Pinewood Studios in the UK and in Morocco as well," the website added.

Richardson Unfazed By Potter Rejection

27 March 2008 12:12 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

British actress Miranda Richardson will not be reprising her role in the next Harry Potter film - but refuses to let the snub upset her.

The 50-year-old played toxic journalist Rita Skeeter in 2005's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and despite the character appearing in Jk Rowling's next novel, Order of the Phoenix, Richardson was left out of the 2007 film of the same name.

Rita Skeeter also appears in the next book - Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince - the film version is currently in production and Richardson is once again missing from the cast.

But Richardson insists she is not letting the snub get her down.

She says, "Well, if I am in it, they haven't told me! I don't know why. I think it is because they like to bring in new characters. I'm not upset about it. I'm just enjoying life and seeing other people's work."
