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:

We all know that Butterbeer is a staple part of the diet of any witch or wizard in Harry Potter’s world, and those lucky enough to have visited the Wizarding World theme park in Orlando will most probably have tasted the official, JK Rowling approved Butterbeer on sale there.
Well, today the twitter account for the WB Studio Tour: The Making of Harry Potter and actor Warwick Davis (Flitwick and Griphook) announced that for the first time, fans in the UK will be able to have the pleasure of drinking the apparently amazingly delicious beverage, if they make the trip to the Tour near London.
This is very exciting news for me personally, as I’m not able to make it all the way over to Orlando, but I have tickets for the Studio Tour this summer and have been wanting to try the legendary Butterbeer for many years now!
Make sure you grab your tickets now for the incredible new attraction, as they are selling out fast. Head over to wbstudiotour.co.uk.

More rumors have surfaced today regarding the expansion of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida. According to Inside the Magic, the South Florida Water Management District released a new filing that was made for ‘Project 722′. This included a demolition of a single attraction with several components, which would be a reconstruction of the now-closed Jaws ride at Universal Orlando Florida.
The pictures below show what could be the new designs for Universal Studios Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park. They include five new buildings, with the largest one being possibly slated for Gringotts with an indoor ride. Nothing has been confirmed (or denied) by Warner Bros., but as new developments become available we will let you know.
