Huh.
The magic is over: Harry Potter has finished production
Two days ago, director David Yates shouted "cut!" after the very last shot of the very last Harry Potter film — and one of the most profitable, beloved film series in Hollywood history has officially wrapped.
According to Warwick Davis — who played Professor Flitwick in the saga based on J.K. Rowling's novels — this weekend marked the last time that, barring any unforeseen future cash-grabs, cameras would roll on a Harry Potter film.
eta:
The world at large will be winding up to a more grandiose farewell to Harry, Hermione, Ron, and the whole gang over the next 13 months, between the Nov. 19, 2010 release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and the July 15, 2011 release of Deathly Hallows, Part 2.
tommy, why do you have to make me cry first thing Monday morning? That's just mean.
Ummm... not enough coffee?
Last night, watching the Tonys, I was surprised at how short Dan Rad was when he presented next to Katie Holmes. Did not fit my mental picture of him.
I saw a picture of that. I didn't think she was THAT tall either, and I totally did not think of DR as short. Very weird.
Katie Holmes is pretty tall, isn't she?
For whatever imdb is worth, Katie is listed at 5'9" and Dan at 5'8". I guess if you put heels on her, she would tower over him. And Dan is still taller than Tom Cruise (5'7").
I think IMDB's fudging things -- it's possible he's had a huge growth spurt since then, but just last year he was claiming himself in interviews to be no more than 5'5 1/2".
Did anyone here see
Karate Kid
this weekend? Looks like it did twice the box office of
The A Team
at 1/3 the budget. I totally wasn't expecting that.

It seems sometimes like they downplay women's heights, too, if they're really tall.
