The Next Movie??
 

Just wondering if anyone knew about the next movie...mainly who is playing Dumbledore?

It's gone into production. I'm not sure, but major filming could be almost finished. www.the-leaky-cauldron.org has links to pictures from the sets.

Michael Gambon will be replacing Richard Harris as Dumbeldore.

I didn't receive an e-mail!!! Now I'm really nervous...I had to call Customer Service and switch the credit card that I charged the book to (back at the beginning of February, I think, maybe January) so I wonder if I even still have my order in????

I can't wait for the book to get here! I'm having surgery on June 30th, so I was looking forward to bringing the book to the hospital with me, since I'll be moving a little slow for a while...that just means plenty of reading time!!! :)

about 3rd movie
 

A friend of mine read somewhere that for HP and PofA, Voldemort was going to be played by "Mr. Bean" (lord, where is my mind? I can't think of the actor's name) I don't see him in the role at all; don't think he is evil enough and would probably camp it up all over the place. Now, I like Mr. Bean just fine, just don't think he is right for the role. Surely this is just a joke.

Sherbertlemons, do you know??

Wasn't that actor the villain in Scooby-Doo?

You should definitely give them a call! Do you have an order confirmation number?

By the way...

Here's some information for those of you who pre-ordered from Barnes and Noble and are expecting delivery on Saturday, the 21st but are concerned about being home to sign for the delivery.

I contacted FedEx and was told that if you leave a signed note authorizing the driver to leave the package without a signature, he/she will leave it. If you feel comfortable with that, it's a good way to avoid sitting around and waiting.

Re: about 3rd movie
 

As far as I know, Voldemort has not officially been cast. That rumor's been running rampant for quite a while. It sounds really far fetched to me, too.

All I have is the original order number. They never sent a reconfirmation of my order with the "new" credit card on it (I hate it when banks change hands and it screws everything up:mad: )

Maybe I'll be calling Barnes and Noble again tomorrow to check into it.....:p

edited to add: does it matter if the shipping is to a PO Box for the delivery to occur on the 21st?

Re: about 3rd movie
 

There is no truth to any rumor until it's posted on The Leaky Caudron as fact. This is what I go by, and I think it works. Same goes for the "new" poster for the third movie. They haven't said that it's real, so there's no way it is in my mind.

BTW, only 20 days! I am actually thinking of going to a Meet Up here in Boston. I am going to be such a wreck that day that I'll have to be with others like me! :)

I think I read that a PO Box will take longer. My brother has a box (but not PO Box) and I was telling him to change it just in case. Can you send it anywhere else? Or maybe there is a local bookstore near you that is delivering that you could do instead?

I hope I end up going to Britain in the next little bit, because I want to get the British version! :)

Does anyone know when the next movie comes out? I'm hoping it's November like it has been for the past two, because I have been going to see them on opening night for my birthday and I don't want to break the tradition. Laugh all you want... :D

I'm not laughing! I saw the first 2 on opening day - even took a day off from work to go! I heard the 3rd one is due out summer of 2004:(
Care to start counting days??

It probably will take longer...oh well, as long as they deliver it by June 28th, I'll be happy. Sitting in the hospital is no fun, and I'm not a huge TV watcher (except at nighttime :D ) so the book will be a good distraction for when I'm all alone :cool:

(I'd try for the daytime delivery, but I'm afraid someone would take it if I asked the delivery guys to just leave it....nearest bookstore is about a 20 min drive from my house, so I'm not thrilled with trying to wait in line to buy the book....it's okay, anticipation is good for the soul, right? ;) )

I hate to disappoint, but it's expected in summer of 2004.

Of course, i'm definitely not laughing... I'm a pretty bad HP weirdo myself. :)
