FILM SPOTTING: September 2010 in Polish cinemas

{FILM SPOTTING}
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.

Harry Potter cast interviews in gay magazines

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 [...]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I - the test screening

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 [...]

FILM SPOTTING: August 2010 in Polish cinemas

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:

+3
Very excited!

Another Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer

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 [...]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I - the official teaser trailer

I know I’ve supposedly posted the first teaser about 6 months ago, but the real teaser trailer (whatever that means ;-P) is this:

They use many of the same shots on both teasers, but the new one is somewhat more interesting :)
The scraps of feedback that have come through from a super secret maximum-security test screening [...]
