The Harry Potter actor has given a new interview to The Herald Sun. In it, he speaks about how the fans have grown with the franchise and what to expect in Half-Blood Prince:
"I think the thing we certainly tried to do in this one was strike a balance between the darkness,'' Radcliffe says.
"I mean, the one thing when I read the script I could always yearn for was more darkness and more of that real intense stuff, because I enjoy doing that more, but hopefully this time we have struck a balance between that darkness and a certain comedy in this film."

I hate how since the very begining of the making of the films, its always been -- "This ones going to be darker" please, can we get rid of that word, or something ? Its really starting to annoy me. But anyways -- all this talk about HBP gets me so hyped up for the movie :D cant wait.

Busta move, pheonixknighter. They are not physically capable of making the movies darker. so they have to take a step backwards, and ask for more interviews. Theyre all just really desperate for news. Kinda like we are.

He says "crap" too much. Get a vocabulary. And as for the less low comedy, it certainly looks like there is lots of silliness in the trailer, what with Ron on the love potion and Hermione hitting Harry over the head. I agree with love_harrypotter14: they overuse the word dark, its always darker, darker, darker! Dark and crap, words of the day from the teen millionaire. :)

Is it just me or is that interview TERRIBLE ?!?!? It says there is an emerging romance with Hermione ! A book that helps him fight Voldermort

I agree Twin_of_Ron, it even said at the end of the interview that it was coming out July 16th, but its coming out the 17th.

Oh well, the 17th is only one day longer. lol

The film comes out in Australia on July 16th and that is a Australian interview, so....

...they didnt make a mistake is what I am trying to say.

The reporters couldve researched the movie a bit more- "...he discovers a book that seemingly explains the past that will help him battle with Lord Voldemort." "There is also emerging romantic confusion of mid-adolescence involving Hermione Granger (played by Emma Watson) ". Not quite accurate.
On another note, I live in Melbourne and I think its great that Dan cares about Australians enough to actually learn a proper Aussie accent.

Considering whats going to happen in the next 2 films, and the current state of the world, its probably for the best that this one is not as dark, and somewhat comedic. People are wanting a break. Yes, its going to end on a sad note, but I think theyre saving the massively dark stuff for DH 1 & 2. After all, theyve eliminated the battle of Hogwarts in HBP, in order to have a HUGE climax at the end of DH 2.

im not really fond of this balance between darkness and comedy. it should be 90% dark and only 10% comedy.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-01-11 15:17:53
Godric_83, think of it as 60% Dark, and 40% comedy.. I LOVE IT! Its about time HP take a different approach instead of ALL dark, and CORNY jokes... At least these jokes will actually be funny!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-01-12 10:47:47
Yeah Im looking forward to the comedy , hope it has a good balance of dark too though !
Ok Arry but it still said there was an emerging romance for Hermione and that the book helps Harry fights Voldemort. Kinda shows they dont care about the books but because it is famous , lets do an interview ! Anyway ... 185 days to go !

oh who really cares if its a little less dark and a little more comic, its the 6th hp. im just glad its only 6 months away and they brought quittedge (sorry if its spelled wrong) back. the trailers all look awsome. I agree that the paper/magazine didnt do their research. the book is a potions book and the romance is with ginny not hermione. hermione has her romance issues or jealous bit with ron. anyways cant wait for HBP.

Random but who thinks that Dobbys death in DH wont be as massive as it was in the book ?
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-01-14 16:50:18
Im sure itll be massive Twin_of_Ron, His death will change Harry anyway
