good luck to our hp favourite contenders. =)

Ralph Fiennes nominated as best performance? This is a joke right? It must be? Who is crazy enough to nominate such a person. Acting was he? Is that what people call what hes doing. Well I hope he doesnt win. The award should be given to real actors.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 03:04:12
Um so yea, well pretend that we DIDNT read that rubbish you call a comment above. Anyways good luck to all the HP characters. Now for those of you who live in Texas and live in DFW the channel is 11! :]
ps. Ralph Fiennes is an amazing actor & quite a cutie when hes not playing Voldy. Hmm. i wonder if hell get his full appearance in book 7?

yeah ok congrate to all of them for the nominations but they werent nominated for their work in hp movies its just like ralph fienes whose co_star in the constant gardner was given an oscar has also worked in gof buti still cant a valid link between hp movies and their nominations................i am confused
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 03:21:51
How come Ralph Fiennes wasnt nominated for being Voldemort?
But this just proves that they just choose the best for the Harry Potter movies. Do they have a choice?

What i dont get is that Mugglenet have all these rules about posting and they cant even uphold the really annoying 1st Post things. For godssake people = if you arent going to write anything constructive or interesting then dont write anything at all. Cmon mugglnet staff - sort it out!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 05:47:28
well good luck to all of them. It just goes to show how many brilliant actors have had a part in HP!

Perhaps the wrongest opinion in the history of anything, Walburga. Ever seen Schindlers List?
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 06:21:30
*marks announcements on calendar* Im really rooting for Ralph Fiennes. Hes an excellant actor *prods GOF and Schindlers List*

My local paper had predicted Griffiths would get a nod when the play premiered; (BTW Cyndi Lauper and Alan Cummings were also great in Threepenny); Hearty congrats to all the nominees!!

Congratulations to all of them! I saw Faith Healer this past weekend and Ralph Fiennes was AMAZING. I was so happy when I heard the news about his nomination. Ill definitely be watching.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 19:12:45
That is awesome!
I love the Tonys!
I think that its so cool how many HP actors are involved in the theatre (as in onstage).
Ive heard that Awake and Sing! is really good, so it could do very well.
They do have stiff competition though.
AH! I love theatre!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 19:18:53
Woo Hoo! Hope all the nominees win! Good luck! :D
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 19:19:33
Larien-
Im guessing she wont be singing,
seeing as she is nominated for her role in a play,
not in a musical.
The chances that shell be singing in a PLAY are slim to none.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 19:42:50
Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play:
Ralph- Because he rules and is a good actor.
Best Performacne by a Leading Actress in a play:
France de la Tour- Because she can act good.
We need book 7 news for WECANNOTLIVEWOUTHWIT!!!
-dramatic-
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-17 19:51:46
Actually Frances de la Tour can sing very good. She is very very very talented in singing and kicks leg.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-18 16:15:24
I hope Hugh Grant hosts again. Hes so great!
If they had gone with the book-canon ages for the movie versions of the Marauders, Hugh would have made a great Sirius.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2006-05-18 16:41:22
AUGH! JACKMAN! JACKMAN, JACKMAN, JACKMAN, Hugh JACKMAN. Hugh Grant as Sirius.....::Bart Simpson shudder::
