Newsweek has an early look at one of next year's most anticipated movies, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Directed by Alfonso Cuaron, this installment, according to Hermione portrayer Emma Watson, is the one where �all those lovely, lovely hormones start coming out.� Hmm. Newsweek also reports that Daniel Radcliffe is trying "to get a handle on Harry�s 'feelings of hopelessness'" by watching a lot of Francois Truffaut (�The 400 Blows�) and Vittorio De Sica (�The Bicycle Thief�). Plus Radcliffe's been listening to the Sex Pistols and what Newsweek calls "edgy new acts" like the Strokes and the Dandy Warhols, 'cause he's young and cool - he's not JUST Harry Potter! The Daily News also looks at Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, which opens next summer on June 4, 2004.
In other Harry Potter speculation, there's been some gay subtextual readings of Harry Potter, like this Boston Phoenix article by Michael Bronski from the other week. There's also a sidebar from Joyce Millman about Harry Potter slash fiction.
Mike Newell (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Donnie Brasco) is thinking about directing Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Buy Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban at Amazon.





why is newsweek so annoying? calling y tu mama tambien a "teen sex romp" rather misses the point, i think. plus, it's just such a fogey turn of phrase.
Agreed: Is it even conceivably possible that the line "Cuaron’s scrappiness is either refreshing or worrying, depending on your stock portfolio" means anything at all?
It's a totally shitty article. I can't believe that mainstream press continues to talk down to people. Like, I know they do it, but it's lame. Especially when it comes to movies - it's like it's only mainstream Hollywood - no room to encourage people to see other off-the-beaten track type things. Rehrehrehreh, a pet peeve.
Witchcraft AND homosexuality!? Someone call Pat Robertson! Perhaps they'll cast Tinky Winky in the next movie...
oh my god- hermi is hot- red hot!
yay for hermione!!! *drool*
but seriously... it's more ok for me to be a hermione/Emma watson fan than a 26 guy named jake.... im at least what, less than 5 years older than her :P
Don't know why, but this article really got to me. So I wrote a whole long piece about it on my website. It's at http://www.felixsalmon.com/000179.php if you're interested.
I abhor the whole concept of Harry Potten and don't wish to comment on it.
But I would like to ask everyone -- why why why why is the word "edgy" used in 93.56% of all culture articles, and why would a band like the Strokes, which simply recycles three-decades old songs by the Velvet Underground be called "edgy"?
because the writer thinks that pronouncing things "edgy" in his article, he will thereby seem "cool" or, even better, "hip", because of this knowledge of "edgy" things. but this just goes to show how stupid, empty and pathetic mainstream journalism is--the strokes, edgy?? edgy like britney spheres is edgy, maybe. they've been mass-produced, music-industry-machine-made, product-placed, retro-remake pop tarts since the day some savvy AR flak scraped them off the NY pavement.
I think you're giving the journalist in question far too much credit for actually thinking about what he is writing. It's not pretentious journalism, it's lazy journalism. It's just the first word which springs to mind which vaguely gets the job done. Consider this: "edgy" aside, how on earth can the Dandy Warhols be considered "new"?
i actually didn't mean to characterize it as pretentious, i meant it in a pathetic, sad, and sorry-ass way--i.e., lazy, and/or, hubristically clueless, journalism. which is to say, i am down with you on this one :)
Oh god, is everyone going to start talking about how hot Emma Watson is? Is she the heir to the Olsen twin throne (since they will soon be legal adults).
*Sigh*... the Strokes were so last year. And the Dandy Warhols' drumming is incredibly sloppy. But I guess that's edgy.
Thanks Felix! Great piece. Am posting lengthy comment on your site. Seriously, the state of writing about culture at mainstream pubs is in the shitter.
hey! does anyone know emma watson'e e-mail? if u do please e-mail at rfhoops4961@theintersection.net thanks
yo, Wood mail to me buddy, I mail to you but no responce!!!! I've got new address which is niroshni2@hotmail.com
They still may be in their mid-early teens but I think popularity and professional acting has made them mature more quickly.
You have to admit though, Emma Watson is moving from "cute" to "attractive/beautiful".
Take a look at much professional work is accelerating her:

hey all people this is an okay artical, i mean come on cut these peolpe some slack. well, they spend all there time trying to write somthing for you peole.
bye the way i know danny's e-mail.
nice position...
I am a huge harry potter fan and i think that they should make more harry potter movies.I think daniel radcliffe is a charming handsome young man and he's cute.
Get a life! Seriously!
that is so not true!y are they making these lame stupid stories?!i happened 2 b thier number 1 fan!e-mail me back daniel radcliffe,emma watson,and rupert grint!:P
i think emma watson and daniel radcliffe shouldn't be together!i mean what is it with emma watson yall like so much?is it b'cuz shes skinny and kinda tall?daniel radcliffe deserves some1 better!
i dont care if anyone disagrees with me, but Emma is insanely hot!of story. and i'm less than 2 years older than her, not 5!
I think all of you who are going on about how great Emma Watson is need to go get a life and stop drooling over someone you'll never, ever get. It's pathetic. Sure, she's an okay actress but you dan't have to keep going on about her. Plus, I think she's odd looking.
Jack, you seem so nice, unlike many of these other creeps, if you want, you can E-mail me at emma_watson243@yahoo.com, ok?
Hi!!! I am your fan. Delated Hppy Birthday to you last April 15. I wish you have more movies to come with Daniel!!!!
to Emma Watson
Emma Watson is only decent, anyone whos obsessed with needs to open there eyes and look at some of the hotter girls around them, ones they have a chance with---unless of course you like to sit around at home and watch harry potter all the time and dont talk to other people
IF any body has daniel radcliff's e mail address or jeremy sumptonz e mail address please back to me. thanks melissa
emma watson is a fox...
i cant believe this.... you guys are crazy. i do have to agree.....emma is pretty, and dan is hott, but please....lay off. the chances of them hooking up with a fan is slim to none. but for heck, look all you want, just dont drool over them. its pathetic. the people that scream and have posters that say junk like "Marry me Dan" or "Marry me Emma" are just freaks. dont turn into a nitpicky obsessionist, cause those are what everyone hates.
whatever....im not one of those ppl i just felt like writing something
i like the show trailer park boys...
can you say "change the subject" totally. and its ok matt, your probably not, but just watch out, dont be an obsessionist.
hi, daniel. i think your cut, well actually i think harry potter is cute, but you are harry potter. I think you look better with glasses!!!!!! how old are?
bye

emma is so trendy.she is in competion with alexa vega.
The cast of Harry Potter should stay for many movies of the series to come, 'coz really i think no one could replace Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe, etc...
Hope they could still be in other movies togther.

nesesito tu e-mail daniel si me lo das podras saber por que lo quiero , o mandame un correo tu
Okay, people. GET A LIFE! A: If Daniel and Emma got together, I think I may just puke. B: Your chances with either are between the zero and negative percents. and C: Why doesn't anyone ever mention Rupert Grint (Ron). Out of the three, he is the only good actor. He has already begun doing other movies and fits his role as Ron perfectly. Dan is semi-decent and Emma is very ahh..... umm..... well.... it looks like she's reading from a script in the first few films, maybe a little better in the third. However, the third film takes away much of the mystical, magical feeling of other films and slams the audience into a realistic film where you actually have to rely on the talent of the actors. Personally, the first style suits me better. Also, what's with the Firebolt at the end? It's like the director tried to slam this part into the movie and squish it in. Kind of weird, no? Finally, I am a teen and can write better than all of you. What's with the "u rock!!? I maen it!"? Hello! If you want people to take you seriously, learn to spell!
hi emma!do you enjoy hugging daniel?if you do!mamatay k na!that's all have a nide

Hi there emma i wanna just tell u that i have been feeling strange that u have came 4 times in my dreams i think we had met before.take care
Well, I saw somewhere that Dan might exit HP, because of his mother. I have something to tell ya, Dan, if you want to continue with HP, and if that makes you happy, you need to tell to your mom, that if he wants you to be happy, she just needs to let you act as Harry Potter whenever you want. By the way, could you e-mail me? I live in portugal, and normal mail is reaaaaally slow... and expensive.
Fir-Zen
