Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - Achievements (Xbox 360)
	Yeah, the same good old eternal story, with a touch of Latin or Italian... That's how most of the spells in the games sound like, so why not be hip and call the game's plot Harry-Potter style? From what I've heard, EA received the aid of a fan council while creating this game, so the plot's quite the same as the one in the movie and book, with a couple of twists. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ... [read more >>]

Wizard 101 Takes You to Ravenwood
	In a world where movies are more and more based on games, and where every new movie out there is tied down to a game companion, seeing games-based-on-movies-that-try-to-be-something-else as well was pretty much inevitable. Following this trend, KingIsle Entertainment is announcing that it plans to launch a fantasy-themed virtual world called Wizard 101, which to me seems ripped directly from the lore of ...

Ron Weasley Hates Lindsay Lohan
	In this modern age of extreme narcissism, shameless fame-whoring and constant attention-seeking, it's nice to see younger, more down-to-earth stars sticking together, in no way seduced by the over-hyped aura of the Hollywood "sex, drugs and rock and roll" generation. The British actors of the multi-billion dollars "Harry Potter" franchise are a good example of rising stars diligently keeping themselves of ... [read more >>]

Nude Harry Potter Comes to Broadway
	Make no mistake, everybody who deliberately chooses to call Daniel Radcliffe "Harry" rather than use the actor's true name is not doing it out of ignorance, but out of fondness. Even more than ten years after the first written "Harry Potter" installment first saw the light of day and the final book in the series ended the boy wizard's saga among us ,Muggles, the fascination of J.K. Rowling's won ... [read more >>]

First Sneak Peek into the Brand New Harry Potter Movie
	Joanne Rowling may have finished her world-famous series of novels depicting the magical adventures of the boy wizard Harry Potter, but the movie franchise intent on bringing Harry to the big screens is still going strong. The shooting for the sixth movie in the series, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", has begun a while ago, and Warner Bros is offering us a first peek into the much darker world of our favorite ...

One (Harry Potter) Book, Two (Mega) Movies
	The sensational boy-wizard Harry Potter – portrayed on the big screen by the equally popular British actor Daniel Radcliffe – seems to like all the attention he's been getting in the Muggle world. Therefore, he has decided to prolong his stay with the non-magical community, and travel with us into the next decade. Reason? Warner Bros. Pictures and the producers behind the Harry Potter movie saga – which is at present one of ... [read more >>]

Harry Potter and Hermione Dating?
	Well, I'm not sure Joanne Rowling was expecting such a twist in the life of her famous boy-wizard, but it seems that young people nowadays are even harder to manage than we might have expected. I mean, look at all the Disney "bad girls" (I'm thinking the likes of Vanessa "I look good naked" Hudgens here): they all started out as little darling angels and ended up racy sex kittens. So, in the end ther ... [read more >>]

J.K. Rowling May Continue the Harry Potter Saga!
	I remember talking to a friend once, who asked me if I thought Joanne Rowling would "let Harry be" after finishing the seventh book and thus completing the saga. My honest reply was "yes". That was before the final book was released, mind you, so all I could do (as a hopeless Harry Potter fan that I've been over the past six years) was think about the end of the story, and didn't give the "Harry Potter go ...

Apparate: Harry Potter And The Order Of... Archos!?
	You surely remember when book stores everywhere were stormed by millions of kids eager to obtain the latest book of the Harry Potter series. After the stores episode, the thick book took over the subway where readers were spotted with their heads buried in the book. Recently, the massive Harry Potter hysteria has spread to the electronics market where the giant electronics manufacturer Archos is also part of the witchcraft. Af ... [read more >>]

Leave Hermione Alone! She's Doing Great...
	Emma Watson is the kind of girl who doesn't need alcohol and infamous one-night stands to keep herself in the news – or to be voted Britain's greatest female role model (in a magazine poll earlier this year), ahead of much older and more experienced stars such as Keira Knightley and Kate Moss. As an aside, I have no idea why anyone would see Kate Moss as a role model, except maybe in the negative sense – with all her racy lifesty ... [read more >>]

Are We Going to See Justin Making Out with a Man Now?
	Remember all that craze that hit us about a month ago, when the "Harry Potter" author J. K. Rowling let the whole world know one of her best loved characters, professor Dumbledore, was in fact gay? Well, I think Rowling must have had some vision, or at least a wicked sense of humor in allowing the headmaster of Hogwarts out of the closet, since there is something about gay wizards that seems to pop out every now and then i ...

JK Rowling's New Book Is a Harry Potter Spin-Off
	JK Rowling has reportedly completed the first book that does not deal with the fate of Harry Potter, the famous boy wizard she created more than 15 years ago. However, don't look for any mention of Rowling's book anywhere else outside the "Harry Potter" shelf at your local bookstores, as Rowling's new book (if we can refer to it in that way) is called "The Tales of Beedle the Bard". And yes, for ... [read more >>]

For All You Potter Fans Out There: Dumbledore Is Gay
	Joanne Rowling's love for shocking twists and surprise revelations sure managed to take us all by surprise again. And there was me thinking that the Harry Potter surprises were over. I must confess, the only big surprise I still had in mind (after waiting patiently for almost 10 years to find out the series' outcome) was Rowling announcing she would be coming up with an eighth book. Well, wrong again – which goes to show ( ... [read more >>]

	No, don't be alarmed, everybody. There's no Harry Potter 8 on the way, although maybe some of us wouldn't be so unhappy to see the boy wizard come back for another turn of magic and mystery. But if Harry's adventures are finally over and the now-all-grown-up wizard may rest for a while on the shelves of bookstores and in the imagination of those who waited for him for so long, Daniel Radcliffe, the young actor who' ...

Chinese SANSUI PMP Wears Funny Codename, Plays Harry Potter!
	SANSUI might sound unfamiliar to you, but I don't blame you at all. With so many ghost brands of PMPs out there, it’s hard to tell when something really big will penetrate the market. SANSUI makes no exception. We haven't heard of these gays before, and we definitely never seen one of their products in the stores, therefore its 6714E portable media player comes as a surprise for most of us.

The movie is doing very well at the box-office, making $91 million in the first three days. And the fun is just beginning.

	Being the guy who plays Harry Potter for seven movies straight can have a serious backfire on Daniel Radcliffe's career. No matter how hard he tries, the first thing that people think when they look at the 17-year-old Daniel is the young wizard from J.K. Rowling "Harry Potter" series. Nevertheless, Daniel keeps on trying. One thing is for sure. Although he still has to star in two more "Harry Potter" m ... [read more >>]

It seems that "The Order of the Phoenix" was too hot to be put out by the pouring rain, as hundreds of devoted fans (mostly girls) braved the bad weather. Although she is camera shy, J.K.
