Big Day
Yesterday was a big day for me. Finally after so long a wait I have seen it. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban!!!!!!!! It was a great movie with a few minor drawbacks, but that wasn't the actors' fault. The performance of the trio, was so much more mature, so much better than last time that few people would bother. You got to see it. If you haven't already

More Time
At last, at long last. I've only just finished my last exam and I have a very long vacation. Hopefully I will be able to brighten things up with a couple of fresh updates over the months. Right now all things quiet, but tomorrow the big thing's going to happen. Tomorrow at 1400 hours I will be at the cinema to watch the ultimate movie. And of course I'll be writing a report about it once I've seen it. I'll be seeing you all.

Updated at last!
Okay, I guess you guys have noticed the lack of updates around here. It seems all the staff members are getting pretty busy with things like school and actually having a social life, un-like me(lol)! Anyway, I am make yet another request for Staff Members! PLEASE E-mail me by clicking on my name where it says "Laura" After "posted by". Anyway, I have decided that It will save my staff members and myself alot of time if we keep the updates strictly related to the site. What I mean is there are TONS of other news sources for news on the cast of HP so why does every site have to post it? I will post my recommended links for news next to the Old News and Updates link. That way we can focus on the site itself and get everything up to speed again like when we first started. Now, if we do get some BIG news I will post it, but other than that, just visit my recommended news links.

Weekly Reader Interview
Thanks to Mugglent.com!
Harry's back! And he's returning for his third year at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The third installment in the series by J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, hits the big screen June 4. Edition 4 spoke with Daniel Radcliffe, the actor who plays Harry. Here's what he had to say about the latest movie.
This is the third Harry Potter movie. How has Harry changed since the previous two movies?
Daniel: I was 11 years old when the first movie was made, and now I'm 14. Harry is going through a lot more teenage angst now and is a lot angrier�that is the main difference.
How do you try to live up to readers' expectations of Harry Potter?
Daniel: I try not to think about that. You aim to please everybody, but you know that is impossible to do. I give my interpretation of Harry.
How would you describe Harry?
Daniel: He's a lot more confident because he takes a stand against the Dursleys and confronts Professor Snape as well.
