Action Adventure. In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds). Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax...he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

Sarah Jessica Parker And Matthew Broderick

Sarah Jessica Parker And Matthew Broderick Hit The Harry Potter Premiere With James Wilkie

Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick scored some major cool parent points last night with the their son James Wilkie.  The celebrity parents let their 8-year-old make his “red carpet debut” last night at the NYC premiere of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1“, but to James’ slight disappointment, the carpet was actually black.  

During the interviews they shared that they had read up to book 4 together, with James adding that he read book 5 by himself, but had stopped there.

I watched the entire livestream of the premiere and it was pretty good.  The London livestream last week had a few more of the cast members in attendance and there seemed to be quite a few more interviews on that one, but the NYC one was still worth watching.  I loved listening to James speak.  You know how with some kids you can just TELL that they are respectful, kind, and just “good kids”?  That’s exactly the vibe I got from watching him.  What a neat young man.

Tom Felton Future

Tom Felton, born 22 Sept 1987, is an English actor and musician who's best known for playing the role of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter film series. The movie adaptations of the best selling Harry Potter fantasy novels by author J. K. Rowling, for which he auditioned at age 12. He started his career appearing in commercials when he was 8 years old and in films by the age of ten.

With filming for the Harry Potter over, has spoken out about the hopes and fears he now has for life since production is done.

Shooting for the 8th and final film wrapped up last Saturday, and Felton says he is not sure where his career will take him now. He feels that doing such films and scenes with actors like Ralph Fiennes, Alan Rickman and Jason Isaacs is much likened to experiencing ten years of lessons.

The future and the element of the unknown is both exciting and nerve-racking for Felton and he looks forward to equally exciting projects for him in the future. When asked whether he was looking forward to playing a good guy in the future he answered: “No. Well, I do not know. I look forward to playing a good guy or someone different anyway, someone not so spiteful.”

Emma Watson Scandal

Emma Watson Shocked Over Fake Photo Scandal

“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I” actress Emma Watson is the shocked over her recent photo scandal at her school, Brown University, the Daily Mail is reporting. Watson is trying to find out who e-mailed the fake image of her wearing nothing but a towel around her waist to her classmates so she can put a stop to it. Her rep has commented on the scandal, saying “There have been a number of nude fakes over the past 2 months. (Emma) has seen them and finds them tiresome. People should know better."

The comment comes just after Watson gave an interview to Marie Claire. She said she's found a great group of friends at the university, and they're protective of her. She added that “Brown has a real sense of community…(people) really look out for me; they want me to feel like I’m part of it.”

Watson also told The Sun that she wishes she’s done more naughty things. She added that she’s ready to start taking risks. She also said that she’s been in love once in her life, but she does not want to reveal who it was because it would not be fair.

The scandal comes just as the second-to-last ‘Harry Potter’ movie, ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1,’ is gearing up for its November 19th release. ‘Part 2′ will be released in July 2011, 10 years after the original, ‘Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,’ hit theaters in November 2001.

Harry Potter Star Emma Watson

Harry Potter Star Emma Watson Enjoys College Life

‘Harry Potter’ star Emma Watson is enjoying her collegiate experience at the Brown University. She especially seems to like the unstructured lifestyle.

    “It was so liberating. I’d be smiling to myself and friends would say, ‘Emma, what’s wrong?’ and I’d say, ‘I am just happy’. I take pleasure in the smallest thinks. Like, I’m going to wake up at 10 o’clock if I want to. Or, I’m going to eat a sandwich now.

    “I've such a structure when I’m working on ‘Potter’. I get told what time I get picked up. I get told what time I can eat, when I've time to go to the bathroom. Every single second of my day isn't in my power.”

That doesn't sound like a fun way to live! But I hope Emma’s able to find some kind of balance: I’d miss her if she didn’t do any more movies.

The Deathly Hallows of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1"

Narrowly escaping back to the forest, Harry and Hermione are soon reunited with Ron, who turns up just in time to save Harry from a cold, watery grave. "It's really Ron's big moment," Grint says. "He steps up and becomes the hero by believing what's in his heart and not what's in front of his eyes."

Turning their attention back to the hunt for the Horcruxes, there are new clues to piece together, specifically about the peculiar symbol that keeps cropping up--the circle within the triangle with a line through the center. It is Harry who remembers the first time they ever saw it: on a pendant worn by Xenophilius Lovegood.

The three have been focused on finding and destroying the Horcruxes, but suddenly a new mystery presents itself. They don't know if the symbol they've been seeing is somehow connected to their search, but it does appear to be significant, so Harry, Hermione and Ron set out for the Lovegood house.

Stuart Craig says that the home was patterned after Rowling's description in the book, noting, "Jo specified that the house is a black tower, so I wanted to be true to that. We gave it a deliberate taper and then made it lean, and the interior is as skewed as the exterior."

Dominating the main floor of the house is an old-fashioned printing press, with belts of paper running the length of the ceiling. Since it is also the home of Luna Lovegood, her artwork is proudly displayed on every wall. Evanna Lynch was also asked to lend her inspiration to the décor. McMillan says, "Evanna has a wonderful eye and came up with some great ideas. The end result is wonderfully eclectic, but homey."

When Harry asks Xenophilius about the symbol he wears, it turns out they had the answer with them all along. It is the sign of the Deathly Hallows from an old fable in The Tales of Beetle the Bard, the book left to Hermione by Dumbledore.

As she reads the story aloud, the symbol's meaning is revealed: the triangle is the Invisibility Cloak, to shield the wearer from Death; the circle represents the Resurrection Stone, to recall loved ones from Death; and the straight line denotes the Elder Wand, one more powerful than any other wand in existence. Two of the Deathly Hallows--the Invisibility Cloak and the Resurrection Stone--seem to have some basis in fact. So if the fable is true and the Elder Wand does exist, then Voldemort will stop at nothing to obtain it. And if he does, it might render the search for the Horcruxes meaningless.

Just as the significance of the story becomes clear, so does the danger they're in. Harry, Ron and Hermione must run for their lives, with the Snatchers, led by Scabior (Nick Moran), in close pursuit. The pulse-pounding foot chase was shot in the Swinley Forest in Berkshire, where both David Yates and Greg Powell admit they initially underestimated the athletic abilities of their young cast. The director explains, "I figured I'd have to do one take just to let them get a feel for the rough terrain before telling them they'd have to run faster. Then I called 'Action,' and, whoosh, they were gone!"

Powell echoes, "To be honest, I had told the stuntmen they would have to slow down because they would outpace the actors, but that went completely out the window on the first shot, because the three of them took off like gazelles and left my guys standing in the dust."

Filming the scene also generated some healthy competition between Daniel, Emma and Rupert, who regarded it as more of a race than a chase. "All those years of training with the stunt team finally paid off. There was no question in my mind that I could beat them...not that I'm competitive or anything," Radcliffe deadpans.

"It got quite intense," Grint adds, "especially since we were having to dodge between trees and jump over logs. It was a lot of fun though."

Watson confirms, "It was pretty funny, especially when David had to take us aside and say, 'I just want to remind you that this scene is not about which one of you can run the fastest.' But I definitely gave the boys a run for their money," she smiles.

In the instant the Snatchers are about to overtake them, Hermione flattens Harry with a Stinging Jinx to hide his identity behind extremely swollen features. Special make-up effects designer Nick Dudman and his team used a silicone material to distend Radcliffe's face. "It was tricky," Dudman says "because the only thing on Dan's face that's actually him is one eye. Every detail had to be perfect, down to his eyebrows and stubble, which had to be inserted into the make-up, one hair at a time. My people, Steve Murphy and Paula Eden, did a fantastic job. It took three hours to apply, but Dan was a trouper."

The one feature the Stinging Jinx cannot mask is Harry's lightning scar, which, while distorted, is still barely visible. Believing they may have caught the ultimate prize, the Snatchers deliver their quarry to Malfoy Manor.

The design for the outside of the house was inspired by Hardwick Hall, a Tudor-era mansion that Craig has long admired. He elaborates, "It has these enormous windows, which, especially at night, have a mysterious, slightly threatening, and magical quality to them--huge areas of glass with seemingly nothing but darkness behind them. So the exterior was terrific, and then we invented an interior to match."

At the manor, Bellatrix Lestrange and the Malfoys are waiting. Now the only thing standing between Harry and certain death is his Hogwarts nemesis, Draco, who is faced with a life-altering choice between identifying his former classmate and thereby restoring his family's standing with the Dark Lord, or restoring his own soul.

Radcliffe observes, "What's great about the story is the complexity of good versus evil. It isn't always a clear split between the characters. Even Harry is obviously connected to Voldemort, so there are people we have always seen as evil who have good in them and good people who are seriously flawed."

It turns out that Harry, Hermione and Ron are not the only ones imprisoned at Malfoy Manor. The Death Eaters are also holding Luna Lovegood, the goblin Griphook (Warwick Davis), and the wand maker, Ollivander. A possible rescue comes from an unlikely source...but only at a great sacrifice.

The last house seen in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1" stands in stark contrast to the grandeur of Malfoy Manor: a cottage that appears to be made entirely out of shells. Prefabricated in workshops at Leavesden, the house was then constructed on a beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Craig recalls, "We chose that beach because it had great sand dunes and also because David wanted white water and the sound of crashing waves. But those waves came at a price because the beach had incredibly high winds. The entire structure had to be heavily fortified and weighted down with giant water bottles that were several tons each just to keep the whole thing stabilized and stop it from blowing over."

David Heyman remarks, "Being out on location for this film provided a sense of scale and verisimilitude, especially since the story takes us away from the familiar setting of Hogwarts and puts us on the road with Harry, Ron and Hermione."

Composer Alexandre Desplat, who created his first Harry Potter score for "The Deathly Hallows - Part 1," agrees. "Our heroes are constantly in motion, so I wanted the music to follow the thread of their journey, and find just the right balance between the action, suspense and emotion."

"Alexandre's music expresses so many different colors and emotions," says Heyman. "His score has scale and intimacy, darkness and light."

"My goal was to give the film an original musical imprint," Desplat continues. "At the same time, I wanted to carry on the rich musical tradition of the composers who have scored the previous Harry Potter films in keeping with the series' great heritage."

David Barron reflects, "That is what makes these films so incredible to work on--that they have a rock solid foundation, which began with Jo's books. The most important thing to us was to make a film fitting the material she created."

"It all begins and ends with Jo; we wouldn't be here without her," Heyman states. "I feel privileged to have worked on Harry Potter for more than a decade. It has been inspiring, challenging and an awful lot of fun."

Yates says, "I'm particularly thrilled and proud that I'm the director who gets to bring the climax of her great story to the audience. That's what I'm looking forward to."

Sizzling Outfits From The Summer Movies

Megan Fox
in Transformers

With temperatures sizzling and the dog days of summer approaching, its time to head to our local bijou to cool down.

It's been a blockbuster summer, thus far, for the movies, with titles such as Transformers setting box office records.

But on the fashion front, simple combinations can combine to create a sexy outfit.

Evanna Lunch
in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

A pair of low rider, hip hugging jeans and an orange belly top shirt is all that is need to create that hot look for Megan Fox who plays Mikaela Banes in Transformers.

Of course, even a simple school girl uniform can be enchanting when worn by the right pupil, in this case, Evanna Lunch shows us how a simple white blouse and sweater jacket can become an enchanting outfit in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

Just add a wand, to top off this look.

"Elizabeth Banks in a black see thru blouse with white polka dots and Topher Grace in the movice Spider Man 3">
Elizabeth Banks and Topher Grace
in Spider Man 3

Another look we admire is the outfit worn by Elizabeth Banks as she glazes up at Topher Grace in Spider Man 3.

Lacy, black little see thru dress with puffy short sleeves and small white polka dots.

I just love this sedate, yet sexy outfit.

It's almost matronly yet with its revealing see thru qualities it's also revealing seductive.

Michelle Pfeiffer
in Hairspray

Just the right amount of retro glamour in a dress.

Well, we might as well end this review of summer movie fashions with a BANG.

What could be more explosive than that great hairdo of Michelle Pfeiffer in the movie Hairspray. What an explosive combination - red dress and blond hair.

Just love Michelle side cut red dress and her great sparkling bubbles, bangles and beads.

Time to raid the second hand stores for some great costume jewelry.

Don't you just yearn for that 60s look - when hair was hair - big and sexy - and not like those short razor boys cut many actresses are sporting today.
