I cant even say how exited for the movie i am. top 12

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 07:43:16

Not that hard to figure out. Only important scenes in front of the Hogwarts lake was the Marauders scene (which is one of the scenes shot there), and that scene in the last chapter where Harrys reminiscing over Sirius by the lake. Im glad both of them are in there.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:24:46

"The film is said to be darker in tone than the previous movies in the series." Have they not read the books? Of course it is!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:28:29

Sweet always good to here about filming. I wonder what parts theyre doing?!?!?!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:39:28

awesome! I always love hearing about filming, it means there one step closer to finishing. I wonder what part they are doing?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 08:56:57

The Ministry of Magic?? Im clueless...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 09:28:58

Interesting... I really must read the book again. Why are they filming at that lake and not the lake that was in POA? Well, the castle looks awsome, but I suppose they will only show the lake. I am very happy that they are filming again!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 09:34:13

It is great to see new news about the filming OOTP!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 09:34:54

Dude, thats exactly how I picture the house of that old, fat lady who Riddle visits in book 6; the one with Hufflepuffs whatever and Slytherines locket. Darn, well then it will probably not look like that in the 6th movie then.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 10:24:29

So they are already filming again, then Dans vacation was really short. It looks like this is the first time they film in this place. its really beautiful, Ive seen the pics in that site and I think its perfect for the movie. Plus, this means there is at least one of the scenes near the lake!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 10:43:37

maybe its for the scene by the lake with the mauraders, harry, and snape... the memory! thatd be perfect for it!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 11:01:23

OH MY GOD!!!!!! IVE BEEN THERE!!!!!!!!!! I lived in Charlbury, England which is only a few minutes from Woodstock! My family and I went to Blenheim Palace sight seeing, and spent the whole day there! It was beautiful. I remember the outside of the entrance was like this huge stone like...I wanna say patio but that is NOT the right word at all. Like gargoyles and orangish stone and stuff. I remember we pronounced it wrong- we said Blen-HIGHm but its Blen-IM. I cant believe this! This is awesome! It was such a beautiful place, and perfect for Harry Potter. I cant wait to see the movie, and see how they use the palace!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 11:13:06

Yay update! I wonder what scenes theyre shooting there...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 12:19:12

Hmm... a lake? But still at the palace? Very interesting. I wonder if maybe its the scene where Harry leaves Hagrids hut and goes and sits by the lake so he can be by himself. Oh well... I guess Ill have to wait and find out.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 12:56:24

Makes me think of the Ministry, but thats underground... Now Im really curious. Bad and good news about the movie succeed each other very rapidly.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 13:07:07

IM THINKING MINISTRY DUE TO IN THE BOOK IT SAYING THAT IT IS REALLY GRAND ETC. IM THINKING THE CHASE OF BELLA AND THE FIGHT WITH DUMBLEDORE.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 14:01:00

thats so pretty... Im guessing it might the Snapes worst memory scene by the lake or near the end where Harrys thinking about Sirius after he goes 2 see Hagrid.. i cant wait for July 07!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 14:24:49

OH MY GOSH. Its so beautiful!! I want to go there. Now. It would be a plus to see Dan. lol. I cant wait to see what they use it for. 350 days, 9 hours, and 35 minutes.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 14:24:57

Ah, Blenheim... Great place, go there v.often (especially to see the horse trials in September!), and I live close by. According to our local radio station, they used it for the Snapes Worst Memory scene, because it had a perfect tree by the lake... Johnny Depp filmed some stuff from The Libertine there a few years ago - hundreds of people turned up to try and see him. I wonder if they did the same for the HP crew?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 15:03:36

Ive never seen this place before, but the pics on their site are beautiful! Hmmm...what would they have filmed there? The lake scene? The Ministry? Both are good guesses. Number 12 Grimmauld Place? Ummm...no.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 15:13:40

Awesome. It must be a really important scene for Dan to be there in person. Cant wait for the movie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 17:06:13

Awesome. Blenheim Palace is just beautiful.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 17:06:14

Awesome. Blenheim Palace is just beautiful.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 17:30:50

Well, Dan *is* acting the main character so it doesnt necessarily have to be an important scene...And we have confirmation that it is The Worst Memory scene...more interesting by the day, no?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 17:39:41

Ughh. I just read the article....why must they pretend that they know what theyre talking about? Research people, research...if youre going write an article, read the books! Its not that hard! Of course its going to be darker! *exasperated sigh*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-27 20:24:04

Saweet!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-07-28 15:21:55

WHAT!!!??? Is this really true??? "The 16-year-old actor, Daniel Radcliffe, who portrays as Harry Potter had recently declared that he doesn’t want to continue playing the role of Harry Potter and want that Harry Potter should come to an end. The actor said, "I would like Harry to die at the end of that seventh book. I think it would be a very good ending if he had to die in order for evil Voldemort to die". The actor also confessed that he likes to perform as Harry Potter but interested to take up another projects as well." IS DAN REALLY GOING TO STOP PLAYING HARRY AFTER THE FIFTH MOVIE?? IS THIS JUST A RUMOR???
