WARNING: This entry may contain a bit of Deathly Hallows spoilers for The Prince's Tale so if you have not read the final book of the Harry Potter series, please proceed with caution.

Out of the entire much anticipated Deathly Hallows, the scene I am probably most eager to see is The Prince's Tale, however, it is only a matter of whether or not WB or David Yates in that respect will let Alan Rickman do his stuff, especially in one of the most treacherous scenes where we probably see for the first time of Snape's real torment:

The hilltop faded, and Harry stood in Dumbledore’s office, and something was making a terrible sound, like a wounded animal. Snape was slumped forward in a chair and Dumbledore was standing over him, looking grim. After a moment or two, Snape raised his face, and he looked like a man who had lived a hundred years of misery since leaving the wild hilltop...''I wish...I wish I were dead...'' (DH, pgs. 357-358. PDF format.)

The two most important aspects of this scene is that Snape is supposed to be ''making a terrible sound, like a wounded animal'' whilst his face is supposed to give off the impression of ''a man who had lived a hundred years of misery'' hence Rickman's older age compared to Snape's.

As read about at this link: http://www.snitchseeker.com/harry-potter-news/live-post-bd-live-half-blood-prince-screening-dan-radcliffe-david-barron-69604/, during the BD-Live screening event of the Half-Blood Prince Blu-Ray DVD with David Barron (acting as a replacement for David Yates due to a flu) and Daniel Radcliffe in which is taking place today, I found this comment they made about Alan Rickman rather funny:

Quote:

On Alan Rickman, David said he loved his eyebrows, while Dan loves his dry sense of humour.

Honestly, who CANNOT love this man's eyebrows. *yum*

(First it was David Heyman fan-boying Alan/Snape in the HBO Preview of Half-Blood Prince, and now David Barron?)

Meant to do this earlier, but was soooooo busy, and also I terribly apologize if anyone has seen this already. For those who haven't, enjoy :)

Warner Bros has released another exclusive video from the Ultimate Edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone, this time focusing on the very enigmatic Professor Severus Snape. Dan Radcliffe talks about how intimidated he was filming early scenes with Alan Rickman, who plays Snape in the series. Chris Columbus and Alan himself reminisce on how the role was cast ten years ago. It can be viewed at this link: http://www.snitchseeker.com/harry-potter-news/video-chris-columbus-alan-rickman-discuss-casting-snape-sorcerers-stone-69504/

The Ultimate Editions, which will be out tomorrow, can be pre-ordered via the following links:

Sorcerer's Stone DVD; Sorcerer's Stone Blu-ray

OK, so I am in room trying to study for my History final on Monday and my roommate turns on the tv and guess what they are showing...SOMETHING THE LORD MADE and of course, one of the first scenes is Alan Rickman wearing a suit in his laboratory. HE LOOKS AMAZING and so cute when he is checking the babies!!! I've never seen the movie and it looks like a really interesting movie but right now I am only focusing on him. IS IT JUST ME?!?! All my friends are laughing at me because I think that he is hot!

Little gift for y'all:

For my English Composition class, I'm supposed to write an essay about morality/spirituality/religion in a pop-culture visual artwork (such as film). I've chosen to write on The Search For John Gissing, for probably obvious reasons. *laughs* Anyhoo, I was wondering if y'alls could direct me to some good articles, youtube interviews, etc. on the movie. Any that have quotes by the actors about their characters and the film would be particularly helpful. Thanks a lot! :)

I was looking at Empire Magazine's 100 Sexiest Movie Stars and guess what?

I FOUND DEAR OH-SO-SEXAY ALAN'S EVER CHARMING SMILE DOWN IN NUMBER 83!
Hee should've gotten a better rating but still! He beat our Chris Evans for crying out loud, who's years younger and still has all that six-pack thing going on. Al Pacino and Warren Beatty were among the others he beat out.

So of course, I shall share.

Well, I managed to miss Blow Out when it was on Netflix Instant Play, so I'm hoping to catch up with Alan's other Instant Play movies. Can I get some opinions on...Bottle Shock, Robin Hood: Prince of Theives, Unforgivable Blackness and Shakesphere Tragedies: Romeo and Juliet (from 1978) Out of them, which has the most Alan and which is the best Alan? Got some extra movie watching time this weekend and I intend on enjoying it! ;)

<3 Mare

here on a czech fan web and the question was what Alan should win.

• to be knighted
• to be awarded an Oscar
• to get the star on a pavement in Hollywood (i don´t know the exact name of the pavement:-))) )

Sir got 87 votes.
Star 15, Oscar 15 :-) votes.


What do you think?

Liked the song they choose also.

*melts*

can see the picture i put here a few days ago, a little improved:-))))


Look here.

Here is a video I found on youtube in which plays a tribute to Severus Snape's death; the song being played is called Inner Child by Mike Oldfield:
