Harry Potter’s ‘H’ knitted jumper has made Entertainment Weekly’s 20 Great Pop Culture Sweaters list. It is among sweaters such as, Danny’s track sweater in Grease, Happy Days sweaters and more! It is picture number 7 when you click that link above.

HARRY POTTER

Because young’uns always look cuter in woven wear, the Harry Potter movies have used them liberally, in everything from the kids’ school uniforms to the warm, but scratchy looking numbers ”knitted” (isn’t magic a great thing?) by Mrs. Weasley.

Thanks Dom!

Hey Everyone!

I, unfortunatley, have to go back to school later today so I won’t be able to fully enjoy my Easter, but what can I do.

HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a report online where we can read about the atmosphere on set, about the filming of Slughorn’s Christmas party and about Harry and Ginny!! For those of you who can speak Spanish, you can read the article HERE. Here is a translation of part of the article, if anyone would like to translate the rest please email me!

Against all expectations, the sixth installement of the saga will not be as dark as the previous one. In spite of the tragic end of Harry’s mentor, Dumbledore (Michael Gambon), the movie actually revolves around the awkward and comical romance between Harry and Ginny Weasley, sister of Harry’s best friend Ron (played by Bonnie Wright, who made her debut in the second installement).

Here is what Radcliffe had to say on this topic: “It’s a complex story, it isn’t a simple romance because Harry is such a close friend of Ron’s, and Ginny is his sister, and Harry feels as if he’s walking on eggshells”. According to director David Yates, “the fifth [film] was pretty intense, but this one has more comedy in it (…) There are many subtleties in the relationship, and a lot of sexual and emotional tension”. The movie also promises a lot of action and magic galore, and it will count with at least one scene that is not in the book.

Thanks HG Network!
