Harry Potter wins big at National Movie Awards

The National Movie Awards aired live this evening in the UK, and as usual Harry Potter was one of the big winners. Deathly Hallows Part 1 picked up Best Fantasy Film and Deathly Hallows Part 2 was named most anticipated movie of the summer.

Producers David Heyman and David Barron were there to accept the awards along with Bonnie Wright. Meanwhile Bonnie's fiance Jamie Campbell Bower, who appeared in Deathly Hallows Part 1 as the young Grindelwald, won the 'One to Watch' award. All the awards were voted for by the British movie-going public.

There's also a nice Harry Potter montage in the middle looking back at all the awards its won at the NMAs in the past. I managed to record all the HP related footage and you can watch that right here:

I like the part at around 6:30 minutes time, when she said, "Harry Potter will always be in our hearts." that's just it isn't it, for those true fans out there, . . . the magic will never end.

Sylvia mother of the bride
Will the Americans ever give the Harry Potter movies the Oscars they really deserve or will they show their sour faces
and not even acknowledge all 8 movies!
Lets see next year and see how the Oscars really work!
Not on popularity or people choice for sure!
It is after all "academy awards"! Really?
I am giving my daughter a Harry Potter themed bridal shower!! On July 14th, so we can enjoy and celebrate both her and the end of Harry Potter movies!!
Harry Potter will be in my heart forever! Thank you J.K. Rowling!

JK Rowling, Pottermore

Pottermore.com is now open to everyone

After an awfully long wait and many problems, JK Rowling’s Pottermore website is now open to registration from everyone!

Up to now only a million beta testers had been able to access the website, which provides an interactive Harry Potter reading experience with lots of new written content from JK Rowling.

But now they have made all necessary technical upgrades and a few visible changes (including sounds), everyone who was left out of the beta can now experience the magic for themselves.

We also hope they’ll release more books soon, as currently only Book 1 is available. Watch a sneak peek clip of Pottermore below:

First Look at the ‘Catalogue of Artefacts’ in Harry Potter: Wizards Collection

When the announcement for the Harry Potter: Wizards Collection came out, we told you that we would keep you posted with the latest news. Here, courtesy of hypable.com, is a first look at some new information from the Collection. Warner Bros. has released three pages from the Catalogue of Artefacts and here is what they said about the book:

This 48-page rigid book was created by MinaLima Design: Eduardo Lima, Miraphora Mina and Lauren Wakefield, former graphic designers on the Harry Potter films. Filled with their favorite props from the films designed in “shadow boxes,” this stunning catalogue can only be found in the Wizard’s Collection.

One of the above mentioned designers, Lauren Wakefield, had this to say in a recent interview about her work with the Collection:

These props have an unusual history in that they were all designed, crafted and archived within one studio setting, by in-house designers and craftspeople. We wanted the catalogue to bring together this unique family of artefacts, in a logical but creative way, and to capture the magic they brought to the films. Shadow boxes were a charming way to pay homage to the working environment of the film studios and to suggest how, for each set, there would usually be a collection of props standing by, ready for action.

You can view the pages below or if you want to have a little fun, you can go to HarryPotter.com and enter in a secret spell to show the pages.

HP Encyclopaedia, JK Rowling, The Casual Vacancy

JK Rowling launches revamped website, reveals title and details of new book!

Update: some great news that we didn’t spot at first on JKR’s new site is in the FAQ’s where she confirms that she has ‘started work’ on a Harry Potter encyclopaedia! She notes that all royalties would go to charity, as with her previous HP companion books.

Woah, big news just came out of nowhere! JK Rowling just relaunched her website JKRowling.com, with a fantastic timeline of events in her career. Check it out here.

Also just announced is the title and some details of Jo’s new novel for adults! It is to be called The Casual Vacancy, will be released on 27th September 2012, will be 480 pages long, and is described as ‘blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising’. Agency Little, Brown released this:

Little, Brown Book Group announces that the new novel for adults by J.K. Rowling is entitled The Casual Vacancy.  The book will be published worldwide in the English language in hardback, ebook, unabridged audio download and on CD on Thursday 27th September 2012.

The Casual Vacancy

When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.

Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.

Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…Pagford is not what it first seems.

And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?

Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults.
