Harry Potter Stars Go to Paris

Parisians are very happy people since the whole cast of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince upcoming movie have arrived in France. The most interesting part – they came on-board a special train that is a real and large ad of the new movie. According to the mass media not only actors are in France now, but animals from the film are there as well.

The journey of the unusual train will last till the 21st of June and it will stop at 11 towns across the country. The train is decorated taking into consideration the style and idea of the new film. Even such things as costumes and artifacts of the schoolboy magician can be found here.

Train-decorators say that the idea behind the train is to provide people people with a feeling that they are on the set of movie-making. For example, in a couple of minutes they can feel they are at Hogwarts or they are in Dumbledore’s office.

As a Potter fan I am very excited about such a train and I do feel sorry that I don’t leave in France.

I came across a very interesting story – one of numerous Harry Potter fans lives near the place where takes place the filming of the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. And this brave girl managed to get behind the scenes, so here is her story.

Nobody can visit this place without a special pass and such passes can be given to visitors when they are entering the place. As it turned out the area behind the set was called Unit Base. There Molly (the name of the girl) saw the trailers (where actors live) and the canteen.

Molly had a cup of tea and saw the crew having breakfast. Molly saw Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson had their trailers. She spoke to producers and managers and was very pleased with her adventure.

Will Dark Knight Outdo Harry Potter?

Most of us, fans, will say – definitely Harry and we are right. Due to just released official figures, we can see that the new Batman movie fails to get the same feedback (I mean in cinemas) as Harry Potter movies had.

It’s important to mention, that the Dark Knight has already overtaken Iron Man. And this was a very successful one ))) But, DK movie is still a leader for highest box office earnings on a single day.

Now, the Dark Knight is just one position below Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, will it be a new leader?
