According to interviews they were showing on PBS afterwards, Maggie Smith (who is awesome as the aunt) recommended him for HP.
Wash: Captain, didn't you know kissin' girls makes you sleepy? Mal: Well sometimes I just can't help myself.

Awwwww. I hope she's going to recover from the cancer. I'm glad she got to finish filming.
She's like a master class in how to steal a scene in three lines.

One of my favorite added scenes is in the beginning of PoA, when Harry and his dorm-mates are sharing the noise-generating candy.

JZ cited that scene recently too. Ron gives good Lion, and Neville with the Elephant.

This, even moreso with Gosford Park.

Mac can't handle HP yet. Only got through me reading him the first book and declared it way too scary, won't touch the movies.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I can totally see that. And the books just get scarier with each one. I was freaked out reading the final book thinking: SPOILER
don't kill Hermione! Please don't kill Hermione. I will be pissed!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I was told by someone that they had read a spoiler online that Hermione died, right before I started the book. Imagine my relief.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'm not sure I could have read the book knowing that. I would have had to read all the detailed spoilers ahead of time to be sure and then waited a few days to get to the acceptance phase and then started the book.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I eventually had to read the end to assure myself that Neville would survive. I also had to read the end because I wasn't sure how I was going to survive the camping/horcrux searching.
