MovieWatch: "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"

... "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"Director: David YatesFien Print Rating (Out of 100): 68In a Nutshell: [Before getting to my wildly out-of-date review (I've been BUSY!!!!), I've gotta ask: Am I the only one who can't handle 3-D? Physically, I mean. I'm going to blame my astigmatism or something, but even with the newest technology and the snazzy new glasses, 3-D still makes my eyes water and my head throb and the actual payoff isn't close to worth it. For a movie like "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," that wasn't a huge ...

... regrets not going wild when he turned 18 - vowing to make sure his 21st birthday will be a "a more raucous affair." The Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix actor's 18th birthday in July was a low-key celebration - he spent the day watching the cricket. But admits his next milestone birthday will be wild. The star told British radio station Heart: "I'm certain my 21st will be a more raucous affair than my 18th, I hope so anyway, why not? I'm not going to go off the rails though. I'm just going to keep on doing what I'm doing and won't get embroiled in any of that." ...

Helen McCrory to Play Narcissa Malfoy in 'Harry Potter'
Published 11/12/2007 by Christopher Campbell at Cinematical
Filed under: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Casting, Warner Brothers, Fandom, Family Films, Harry Potter, Comic/Superhero/GeekI guess it goes to show how little I've been paying attention, but I could have sworn Narcissa Malfoy already showed up in the Harry Potter movies. Of course, it could also mean I'm easily mixing up the books and the adaptations, because I must be thinking of the character's first appearance in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire -- the novel not the film. But Narcissa, who is mother to Draco (Tom Felton), wife to ...

WHAT'S YOUR RUSH?
Published 12/11/2007 by Tim at Antagony & Ecstasy
Mark your calendars, for I am about to say something that I never, ever say: The Golden Compass has all the ingredients to be a fairly good movie, excepting that it is completely undone by its screenplay. And as long as I'm saying uncharacteristic things, here's another: The Golden Compass could probably have been salvaged if it were another half-hour longer. For the uninitiated: the film, based on Philip Pullman's novel (originally titled Northern Lights ) is set sometime early in the 20th Century, on a parallel earth where the Reformation never occurred - hence the Catholic Church (called in the film the much ...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix will now be spinning in homes across the world thanks to the DVD release, so I thought it was time to revisit Imelda Staunton's memorable villainess "Dolores Umbridge", who stands zero chance at an Oscar nomination though people will remember the performance 20 years from ...

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION

Obviously, I have no conceivable influence over the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. But on this, the last day of 2007, I wanted to point out what I think were some of the highest achievements of the year, that aren't getting any attention from the critics' groups, or otherwise won't ever make it to the Oscar nomination stage: Best Picture Sarah Polley's Away from Her ...

3D Returns, Few Care
Published 2/29/2008 by thecynicalgamer at karlhungus.com
Idly waiting for friends at the local multiplex the other day, I wandered around the foyer gazing at the coming attractions. It struck me that a surprising amount of them are beginning to utilise what many had suspected was a mere fad: 3-D technology. Seems that the concert film is the genre that has decided to bring back the supposedly obsolete gimmick. U2 3D is probably the concert film that has been most applauded for three dimensional action. Unfortunately, I can't comment on how effective it truly is, because I would rather sit through an hour and a half of a man hitting me on the ear with a hammer ...
