8 Harry Potter TV Spin-Offs We Want To See
11 December 2012 1:17 PM, PST | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
With the nostalgia-induced worldwide attractions and Ultimate DVD Collections settling in, one thing has become very clear for fans of J.K Rowling’s Harry Potter franchise- the series as we know it is over. Far from letting it all end on a downer, though, we should look ahead to what the Potter lore can do for us in the future, just as Peter Jackson is bringing us new Lotr goodness every Christmas for the next three years!
Our suggestion? The next obvious route for the Potter franchise to go down would undoubtedly be that of the television industry- throughout the course of the seven novels and eight films, there were plenty of untapped storylines that could very well thrive and flourish on the small screen with the faith of a strong studio.
Indeed, it’s hard to think that the cash wouldn’t be there for the taking, especially »

HeyUGuys Attend Screening of our Favourite Harry Potter Movie in the Great Hall
9 November 2012 5:23 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Last night, Sky Movies invited us along to the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in London for a rather fabulous evening in the Great Hall. Sky have this week launched a brand new section to their ever increasing catalogue of movies which boasts all 8 Harry Potter movies in one place and on demand whenever you feel the need to watch one. Sky do seem to be snapping up as many epic franchise as possible with both James Bond and now Potter all in the last few months. Our guess is that Star Wars is next although that may well be fun negotiation on how it will work after Disney have snapped up Lucasfilm!
I didn’t really know what to expect when we went along to the event so I took along my pal Fiona from Mum blogging website Curious Mum as backup! Joined by 60 other bloggers and competition winners, we »

Anthea Turner and Harry Potter actor Oliver Phelps have reportedly been lined up to appear on Dancing on Ice next year. The pair were apparently spotted trying out for the ITV show at Alexandra Palace ice rink last week along with Olympic star Luke Campbell, who won a gold in the boxing. Producers have since offered Turner a £50,000 fee to take part in the competition, according to The Sun. "Anthea is still a household name and someone who ITV chiefs are convinced that their viewers will want to see on the ice rink," (more) »

Toronto Film Festival 2012: Walter Salles Working on New On The Road Cut
28 August 2012 1:46 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
On the Road movie reedited for Toronto screening Based on Jack Kerouac's '50s novel, Walter Salles' Otr adaptation starring Garrett Hedlund, Sam Riley, and Kristen Stewart (above photo) will be screened at the upcoming Toronto Film Festival. We all knew that. What we didn't know is that Tiff 2012 will unveil a new cut of the film (via indieWIRE), which premiered last spring at the Cannes Film Festival to mixed reviews. The 2hr20m drama has been downsized to approximately 125 minutes. That's an interesting development, as Otr has already been screened in several countries, with varying degrees of box-office success. [Check out the On the Road trailer. Check out Kristen Stewart On the Road poster; Garrett Hedlund On the Road poster.] Otr movie reedit hardly unique On the other hand, different cuts shown in different countries is hardly something new. Whether as a result of poor critical/box-office reception, (perceived) local sensibilities, and/or censorship, the movie you watch in, say, Canada isn't necessarily the exact same movie watched by someone in Singapore, »

David Strathairn as Beetee: I know, Tony Shalhoub is rumored for this part. And to be honest, I’m not all that opposed to this casting. But, if it falls through and the Hunger Games casting agents need another opinion, might I suggest Strathairn »

The London Evening Standard Announce Winners Of Their British Film Awards 2011
7 February 2012 12:27 AM, PST | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Last night saw the announcement of the London Evening Standard British Film Awards. Looking down at the full list of winners, which we received shortly after they were announced last night, they seem to be one of the only award lists that have got pretty much all of the winners bang on. In fact, I believe I agree with all of them.
The Best Film award went to We Need To Talk About Kevin, a superb film that many critics agree is the best film of 2011. Michael Fassbender won for Shame and Jane Eyre; I agree with the first part of that for sure but cannot comment on his performance in Jane Eyre and I personally haven’t seen it, but I still cannot believe that he was largely overlooked at this year’s Oscars. Olivia Colman deservedly won Best Actress for Tyrannosaur and Senna also bagged Best Documentary. Andrew Haigh »
