DoubleT Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Hi The First pictures from the new Harry Potter movie have hit the net, thanks to www.latinoreview.com. They dont show much, but they do look older now dont they? Quote
ApophisV Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 but they do look older now dont they? Lol, I think this might be the result of BECOMING OLDER..... :P :P :P Quote
DoubleT Posted December 21, 2004 Author Posted December 21, 2004 Had problems with the link, here is one Quote
ApophisV Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 When will it be released? Can't wait to see it! :) Quote
jonfett Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 http://www.latinoreview.com/films_2005/wb2005.html I don't know if this is the actual release date but on this page it says: Nov 18: Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire But I thought it was earlier than that, like July or something. They do look a little older, but not too much.. and they are meant to be 16 now. I can't wait for the film, the wizard competition (can't remember name) will be great! Jon. Quote

Jipay Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 other potter sets in sight ? I think they are in a hurry because the actors are becoming old :) Quote
Cello Collin Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Actually, I'm glad they're releasing it at the end of the year. The Potter movies have always struck me as holiday flicks, as opposed to summer flicks. Quote
ApophisV Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Wasn't it planned to release one movie per year when they decided to make the movies? So that the actors would always be as old as their role counterparts? Quote
jonfett Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Yeah, but they had a lot more work to do with this film, so they could not release it around now.. instead they took 2 years. I have heard rumors that after this film they will be using new (and a bit younger) actors/actresses to replace the main people. I don't know if this is true, but I cannot see it working out. Jon.

Jipay Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 Erm you never know... Look at the girl, she is becoming a real woman lately :| :P :() They need childs to play the roles, not teenagers Quote
iangreig Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 Erm you never know... Look at the girl, she is becoming a real woman lately :| :P :() They need childs to play the roles, not teenagers Easy there, tiger ! Remember the characters are aging too; in the 4th book the kids are supposed to be ~15 IIRC ... the three leads were really all 14 or 15 while they were filming most of the 4th one ... Dan Radcliffe - July 1989 Rupert Grint - August 1988 Emma Watson - April 1990 They couldn't keep up the 12 month schedule - it was ~18 months between film #2 and film #3 ... it will also 18 months between film #3 and film #4 (remember Azkaban was only released this summer just gone !). Film #5 (Order of the Phoenix) is tentatively scheduled for a summer 2007 release (again, 18 months after Goblet of Fire). If they keep up this schedule (and Rowling gets book 7 out on schedule), the last film should hit the big screen in the summer of 2010 - filming would mostly have been a year earlier, so the 'kids' would be 20/21/19 on film, playing 18 year olds. I don't think that will be too much of a stretch for them ! The producers have gone on record & said they want to stick with the original 3 leads for all 7 movies; they are worried that the 'kids' won't want to stick with it to the end ! Ian. Quote
Orlego Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 Yeah, and I'm sure Hogsworth is a k-12 school! :D ;) Quote
iangreig Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 Sorry, I've no idea what a "K-12" school is ... anywho, if you read the books (and I'm pretty sure it was in the original film too), kids are supposed to start Hogwarts in the Autumn/Fall immediately after their 11th birthday. They do their OWL exams at the end of their 5th year (equivalent to UK 'GCSE' exams, the old 'O-Level' exams), and their NEWT exams at the end of their 7th year (equivalent to UK 'A-Level' exams). They (usually) leave the school in the Spring just before or just after their 18th birthday. Each book/film covers one of the school years. Yeah, I know - I know way too much about this :$ Ian. Quote

Ha Ha Ha. K-12 must just be a US thing. It stands for Kindergarten through 12th grade. This is the way our school system works. I wonder if they have a Hogsworth University. :P Quote
iangreig Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 There are other wizarding schools - ones in northern Europe (Durmstrang), southern Europe (Beauxbaton), the US & Brazil have been mentioned IIRC (either in the books or by Rowling in interviews). I'm sure a University has been mentioned (one of the Weasley boys went there ?). I can't remember exactly where it is, but it's somewhere in mainland Europe & has nothing directly to do with Hogwarts. In the UK we used to have playschool (upto 5), primary school (upto 8), middle school (upto 12), secondary school (upto 16), then optionally "6th Form" upto 18. That's what they were called when I went through the system a long time ago anyway. "6th form" is usually attached to a secondary school or might be a stand-alone "6th form college". Ian Quote

Ian Man, that seems a little long-winded. Good job they don't have as many now. I went to a playschool until 4, then primary 4-11, now secondary 11-18 (our school has a 6th form attached to it as Ian was talking about). Jon. Quote
Kynok Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Erm, I think I can wait for this one. The fifth book totaly throgh me of. The sixth book is sapose to be called "The Half-Blooded Prince" -BB Quote
The Middleman Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 You mean 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'. I'm a quiet HP afficienado; I watch from the shadows, but I've read every book at least 20 times and the movies at least 10 times each, so any questions I can answer. :) Quote
Orlego Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 Jay is crazy with the Harry Potter knowledge. :P ;) Quote
The Middleman Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 Watch out, Orlego; you're one post away from the big one. :() Quote
Orlego Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 Watch out, Orlego; you're one post away from the big one. :() LOL!! Jay you are one post away from the Tie army attacking you. :P ;) ;) Quote
