| | Dan Radcliffe talks Harry Potter, My Boy Jack & wizard rock
In a brief new interview with The Boston Globe, Dan Radcliffe talks about being in Harry Potter, his role in the World War I drama My Boy Jack and his experience of Wizard Rock. Quote:
"We're constantly innovating so it stays fresh."
Quote:
"That there are 18-year-old boys going to war right now is terrifying and bizarre to me," said Radcliffe.
"Being with a beautiful girl on a moonlit beach at midnight is romantic," he said. "War is not romantic."
Quote:
Radcliffe told us he knows of the Boston band Harry and the Potters, but he's never heard them. "I'd like to. Are they good?" he asked. "My favorite Potter-related song is by the Liars. It's called 'If You're a Wizard Then Why Do You Wear Glasses?' . . . I like that one."
My Boy Jack will air April 20th on PBS. |

| Fan Fic Queen  I almost posted this, but like Red, I wasn't sure if it was significant enough.
I've always wondered whether the HP stars have heard some Wizard Rock songs. (I want to see if Rupert and Emma have heard Ministry of Magic's Accio Love about Ron and Hermione.  I'm really doubting it!)
Can't wait for HBP!

I own all of the HP's that are out, and I also own December Boys, all of which are really really good movies, I have yet to see Equus and My Boy Jack though, but I have heard nothing but great things about them both!!!!!

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

I'm still laughing at that. It's a good point! I'd like to hear that song, personally, because I imagine it'd be pretty hilarious.

Fantastic point about the glasses. Hermione's teeth were fixed, so why not eye problems?

Yup, I loved December Boys the movie and I've read the book, it's too bad that there's nothing else about it, I've been trying to download all the songs from the movie.
What a great b-day present for me! My Boy Jack four days before my b-day, Woot!

I haven't seen December boys. I really do need to see it. I love Dan's quote about moonlit walks being romantic
