If I’m not mistaken, this is the fourth time that I’m announcing the first trailer for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I. Apparently, the first one was not a trailer but a preview, the second was a teaser, the third was a trailer for part I & II and so this is why [...]

Even more format changes ;-P Am still using the rating system from last month, but have foregone 0 and -1. Feels like overkill. Am staying with the +0.5 rating though, at least for the moment.

Last year, Daniel Radcliffe did an interview in Attitude Magazine, which greatly amused me as I have a really stupid sense of humour (that said, it was a really good interview). This year, he’s continuing the trend, by giving an interview to Out Magazine. Again, it’s a very nice interview and the photos are hilarious [...]

Should have posted this ages ago :] For continuity’s sake, it’s in same film review format as the other Due South reviews, but I think I’m going to make yet another change of format soon as this one just isn’t working *sigh*

There was a test screening of the film in Chicago last Saturday. It’s not complete yet (the soundtrack is yet to be finished and some of the special effects are still not done), but reviews have been good. To check some of them out, see here.
I’m much amused by some of the comments - sounds [...]

I’m not sure all my attempts at mixing things up are going that well (I think my film diary format change is actually worse than what I had before ;-P). But I’m doing some further experimentation this month anyway.
So firstly, I’m introducing a “how much I want to see the film” rating:

Very excited!

They’ve released another, longer trailer. I suppose it’s the official full length one, although it’s actually a trailer for part one and part two. It looks like the focus of it is material from part two though (weird choice IMO, but I’m not complaining *grin*). Anyway here it is:

The interesting thing is that it has [...]
