		<title>Battle Scenes in HBP to Be Omitted</title>
		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=19</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Note: While this doesn't specifically relate to Neville, it is related and I thought all of you would be interested to hear about this.Source: Ace Show BizWhile conducting interviews for his new film "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas", producer David Heyman has offered some reasons and explanations to answer several "Harry Potter" fan sites' questions over "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". Through it, it is revealed that the battle at Hogwarts and Dumbledore's funeral have to be eliminated to avoid repetition as well as provide the right ending to this sixth film. Explaining his reason for the battle omission to Snitch Seeker, the filmmaker spelled out, "The reason why we left out the Battle at Hogwarts is because we have a battle at Hogwarts in the Seventh film and we are avoiding repetition." He then added on Dumbledore's funeral scene, "Dumbledore's funeral was something that I really loved and is a fantastic part of the book and part of me would have loved it in the film. But we decided that while we loved it that what we came up with was the right ending for the film that we had made." Heyman also gave time to address the impact of characters cut to the last two installments of "Harry Potter" franchise, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I" and "Part II". "Inevitably there will be certain things that we will probably have to introduce and emphasize in the Seventh film," he answered The Leaky Cauldron's question. "Before we read the Seventh book there had been things in the earlier films that we had not realized how important they were." "There was an example in the Fifth film when we were considering cutting Kreature but Jo [Rowling] said to me..."I wouldn't do that if I were you"...She didn't tell us why, but she said we would be advised to keep him. And of course in the Seventh book Kreature is an important character. It has been a while, for example, since we have seen Dobby and I suspect we are going to have to make more of Dobby in Seven than we might have done. I think we have done a pretty good job of what we need in terms of the plot." The written scripts of all the Q&A with Heyman can be read at Harry Potter's Page. Dealing with a darker matter than previous "Harry Potter" films, "Half-Blood Prince" resolves around the ever growing threat built by the evil dark wizard, Lord Voldermort, to the wizarding world. Being the only one who has survived his attack years before, Harry accompanied by his two loyal friends, Ron and Hermione has to prepare for his ultimate battle while the walls that used to keep him and his friends away from danger may not be a safe haven anymore. The sixth movie adaptation from "Harry Potter" book by J.K. Rowlings, it stars Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Bonnie Wright, Michael Gambon, Tom Felton, Alan Rickman, Helen McCrory and Hero Fiennes-Tiffin. The flick coming out on July 17, 2009 is directed by David Yates and written by Steven Kloves.  ]]></description>

		<title>More pics from DragonCon and HBP news</title>
		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=15</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Thanks very much to Lyrena and Hanako respectively, we have more pics of Matt (and also his brother Anthony Lewis) at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S. You can see all 8 photos in the gallery below:    Hanako also got the chance to meet Matt, and she wrote this about him:Matthew Lewis is also nothing short of spectacular. I sat in two of his panels this weekend and he was very gracious, funny and appreciative of the fans. He talked to my daughters on the phone Friday. He spoke to fans one-on-one and was very down to earth. He posed for pictures at the Yule Ball, after showing up with his brother even though he had said he was not feeling well.Where Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is concerned, Eric from Mugglenet had the chance to go to a pre-release test screening of the film in Chicago and wrote up a lengthy overview which you can see here (beware: major spoilers&#33;). He mentions Matt very briefly:The movie focuses on the trio perhaps more than ever, but the surrounding characters are well portrayed. Matthew Lewis as Neville again has a small amount of screen time, but we all know how awesome his role is going to be in the next movie.I knew that he would have a small role, as his role is very small in the 6th book anyway. For those who don't want to read the spoilery review, I will just say this: where staying true to the book is concerned, it sounds like you won't be disappointed&#33;  ]]></description>

		<title>Panel discussions at DragonCon</title>
		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=14</link>
		<description><![CDATA[During a private session last weekend at DragonCon, Matt answered panel and fan questions that covered various topics, including his favourite shows, actors, movies and books, fan experiences and not surprisingly, the Harry Potter films and books.Where Harry Potter is concerned, Matt talks in detail about:• Neville throughout the film and book series (mentioning his favourite scenes to film, as well as how much he can't wait to do Neville's action scenes in Deathly Hallows)• the Half-Blood Prince date change, as well as how much he praised Hero Tiffin's role as young Tom Riddle• stories from the set, including playing ping-pong with Dan Radcliffe and darts with Rupert Grint and pulling pranks on Alfie Enoch (Dean Thomas)• the fact that if he could not play Neville he would have wanted to play Harry (as he is "the hero")• his somewhat traumatic forays into Harry Potter fanfiction• his experience with fans from both the UK and USYou can watch all these videos on YouTube here. The first part is in six segments that together equates to one hour long, and the second goes for five minutes and is in three parts. Enjoy&#33; Thanks Snitch Seeker.On a related note, someone I know went to DragonCon and met Matt, and she got me his autograph for me, personalised&#33; As soon as I get it (it's being sent from the U.S. all the way to Australia ) I will scan and add it to the gallery. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I've added one more picture of Matthew at this year's DragonCon to the gallery. (Thanks to QueenLadyBug @ Snitch Seeker&#33;) There are more on their way, I'm just waiting to get permission from the owners of the images. I did find and add some more pics from last year's convention. In the meantime, if you were or someone you know was able to attend the convention, please consider sending in your photos&#33; Full credit will always be given.    Also, I found a cute little mention of Matthew from Avariel Wings on LiveJournal, which I've posted below because I thought it was worth mentioning Oh oh oh also. Cutest thing ever yesterday. Nathan Fillion and Matthew Lewis were on the same row of tables, and at one point Nathan came over to demand a photo and an autograph from Matthew.The boy is 19. When I got to him, he couldn't stop talking about how weird it was that Nathan Fillion wanted his autograph. It was adorkable.Last, but not least, I want to welcome our latest affiliate: Harry/Ginny Studio&#33; ]]></description>

		<title>Warner Bros Apologizes to Fans</title>
		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=10</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The Leaky Cauldron reports that the following message has been sent to various fan sites from Warner Bros to apologize to fans for upsetting them with the change in Half-Blood Prince's release date.Many of you have written to me to express your disappointment in our moving “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” to Summer 2009. Please be assured that we share your love for Harry Potter and would certainly never do anything to hurt any of the films. Over the past 10 years, we have nurtured and protected each film, and the integrity of the books upon which they are based, to the best of our ability. The decision to move “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” was not taken lightly, and was never intended to upset our Harry Potter fans. We know you have built this series into what it is, and we thank you for your ongoing enthusiasm and support. If I may offer a silver lining: there would have been a two-year gap between “Half-Blood Prince” and the much-anticipated first part of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” which opens in November 2010. So although we have to wait a little longer for “Half-Blood Prince,” the wait from that film until “Deathly Hallows” will be less than 18 months. I am sorry to have disappointed you now, but if you hold on a little longer, I believe it will be worth the wait. ]]></description>

		<title>Press Archive RSS Feed and New and Old Images</title>
		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=9</link>
		<description><![CDATA[I've updated all kinds of things around the site today. The first addition is new press archive. I considered making it a subsite before deciding that inputting it right into the current news script would make the whole thing easier to use and browse through. There aren't too many articles up yet but there are a few so feel free to take a look. If you know of any good articles or interviews that feature Matt, please let me know&#33;And now that the archive is set up, I've also set up an RSS feed for the site. At the moment, no images or links display but it will serve as a way to alert you when there are new articles and updates on the site. Hopefully I'll be able to tweek it a bit later but in the meantime, you can find the RSS link on the sidebar and by using this link.I've also added images from two events Matt attended that related to the Yorkshire Young Achiever Awards, which he was a winner of last year. The gallery now has images from the banquet where he was given his award and the event that launched this years search for new achievers. Check them out by clicking on the thumbnails below.    Last but not definitely not least, I have a problem I need your guys help with. The yearly renewal for the domain, as well as the pricey hosting fee, is coming up, and I'm having trouble coming up with the money. I really hate to even ask, but it's coming down to the wire and my options are limited. So if you have even a two or three dollars you can spare to help the keep site up and running, I would really appreciate it. You can do so by using the PayPal donate button at the bottom of the sidebar and I swear that the money is going directly towards the sites bill and nowhere else. I might even be able to come up with a cool way to thank you for your generosity at some point. Regardless, thanks for reading this and continuing to the vist the site. All of you guys support has meant loads to me and Jess&#33; ]]></description>

		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=5</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Horrible news, folks. Half-Blood Prince has been pushed back eleven months&#33; Apparently the success of The Dark Knight is to blame. For those interested in all of the details, you can read the article here. The only bright side is that Deathly Hallows filming will not be pushed back and will continue to stay on schedule. Maybe this means there will be less time between those releases? Let's hope so.There is, however, a new promo still from the movie that's come out. Thanks to HBP Movie Pics, I've added a shot of the group at one of Slughorn's parties. You can only see Neville from behind (I'm assuming that's him) but better than nothing right?Also, I want to welcome our new top affiliate: Jessie Cave Net&#33; Those girls run one awesome site so make sure to check it out I'm working on a bunch of new features of the site so check back soon for lots of new additions&#33; ]]></description>

		<title>Half-Blood Prince Moves to Summer of 2009</title>
		<link>http://matthew-lewis.org/fusion/fullnews.php?fn_id=8</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Source: Market WatchBURBANK, Calif., Aug 14, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Warner Bros. Pictures today announced that it has moved back the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to Summer 2009. The sixth installment of the blockbuster Harry Potter franchise will now open day-and-date domestically and in the major international markets on July 17, 2009. The announcement was made by Alan Horn, President and Chief Operating Officer, Warner Bros.In making the announcement, Mr. Horn stated, "Our reasons for shifting Half-Blood Prince to summer are twofold: we know the summer season is an ideal window for a family tent pole release, as proven by the success of our last Harry Potter film, which is the second-highest grossing film in the franchise, behind only the first installment. Additionally, like every other studio, we are still feeling the repercussions of the writers' strike, which impacted the readiness of scripts for other films--changing the competitive landscape for 2009 and offering new windows of opportunity that we wanted to take advantage of. We agreed the best strategy was to move 'Half-Blood Prince' to July, where it perfectly fills the gap for a major tent pole release for mid-summer."Jeff Robinov, President of Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, confirmed, "The release date change does not alter the production schedule for this or future Harry Potter films. Post-production on Half-Blood Prince was completed on time, and the studio's release plans for the two-part Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will not be affected by this change. We know Harry Potter fans are eagerly anticipating seeing the final chapters unfold onscreen. In fact, the good news for them is that the gap will now be shortened between Half-Blood Prince and the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."Commenting on the release date change for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, David Heyman, the producer of all the Harry Potter films, offered, "When Jeff Robinov explained the rationale behind moving the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to July 2009, it was immediately apparent that this offered us the potential to reach the widest possible audience. I am extremely proud of this latest film and of the work of David Yates and our incomparable cast; I believe we have developed and pushed the series further still. We are all looking forward to sharing it with Harry Potter fans around the world, even if we have to wait just a bit longer."David Yates, the director of both Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and who will also helm Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, added, "It has been a joy to work on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Dan, Rupert and Emma and all our returning young cast continue to blossom, and our new cast members bring fresh color and life to Hogwarts. Even as we put the finishing touches on this latest film, we are already beginning preparations on the final two films--we start filming in February--and I am excited to bring this remarkable series to the exciting and moving conclusion its loyal fans deserve."  ]]></description>

And being asked to do this, to be asked to come along and open it up is fantastic."Matthew, who grew up in Horsforth but now lives in Burley, has recently finished filming Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince – out in November. In February he starts work on Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final film which is being split into two parts.Huddersfield artist Darren, Management and Enterprise Achievement Award winner in 2005, set up his own business five years ago with a grant from The Prince's Trust and has now been commissioned to paint the Queen's portrait later this year.Other past winners include Leeds chart-toppers Kaiser Chiefs, Spice Girl Mel B, cricketer Michael Vaughan and singer Gareth Gates.The awards, set up and sponsored by McCormicks Solicitors of Harrogate, have raised more than £500,000 for leading children's charity NCH.Nomination forms are available from www.yorkshireyoung-achievers.co.uk or from Zoe Ward on 01423 530630.

		<title>J. K. Rowling at Carnegie Hall Reveals Characters' Post-DH Fates</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Source: The Leaky CauldronMLF WEBMASTER NOTE: Because of length, only the related questions have been pasted below. Click the source link for the whole article.Tonight, the one thousand grand prize winners (and their guests) of the Scholastic's Open Book Tour Sweepstakes along with a companion got the chance to see Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling read from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," answer questions and sign books at New York City's Carnegie Hall. We have exclusive information this evening on the myriad of "Deathly Hallows" questions she answered as well as in-depth details on a number of subjects she spoke about.Q: Did Neville ever find love?Of course. ... To make him extra cool he marries the woman who becomes, eventually, the new landlady at The Leaky Cauldron, which I think would make him very cool among the students, that he lives above the pub. He marries Hannah Abbott.Q: How did you decide that Molly Weasley would be the one to finish off Bellatrix?I always knew Molly was going to finish her off. I think there was some speculation that Neville would do it, because Neville obviously has a particular reason to hate Bellatrix. ..So there were lots of options for Bellatrix, but I never deviated. I wanted it to be Molly, and I wanted it to be Molly for two reasons.The first reason was I always saw Molly as a very good witch but someone whose light is necessarily hidden under a bushel, because she isn't in the kitchen a lot and she has had to raise, among others, and george which is like, enough... I wanted Molly to have her moment and to show that because a woman had dedicated herself to her family does not mean that she doesn't have a lot of other talents.Second reason: It was the meeting of two kinds of - if you call what Bellatrix feels for Voldemort love, I guess we'll call it love, she has a kind of obsession with him, it's a very sick obsession ... and I wanted to match that kind of obsession with maternal love... the power that you give someone by loving them. So Molly was really an amazing exemplar of maternal love. ... There was something very satisfying about putting those two women together. ]]></description>
