Crikey, it IS tomorrow, isn't it? Well, good luck, of course, BlueWiz! What's the start time? I hope it's not something silly like 8:30am, which was my time every time I wrote. (How can I be logically reasonable when I'm half asleep??)

Can you believe the DVD release is so soon?? Not only will you get to ogle, you'll get to use the Zoom function as well! Can't wait to rewatch the bathroom scene. (Saw an interview with Dan yesterday - because I geekily OD on this stuff - where he was talking about direction Shirley Henderson got from Mike Newell while they were filming, which was - and he imitates Newell's accent yelling - "Oy, Shirley! Stroke Dan's egg!")

Rumor has it that maybe book 7 will be released on July 7, 2007, to keep with the whole recurring 7 theme going on, and IMDB says OOTP will be released June 1 (which may be totally unrealistic - who can predict these things when pre-production's barely started??), so I'm hoping to coincide my Europe trip to thoroughly stalk the cast enjoy the London ambiance while reading the final volume!

Oo, do share the link if you can! I'd love to see that m'self (I totally OD on HP goodies too). I still squirm uncomfortably every time I watch or even think about the Myrtle scene -- she was NOT supposed to get that close to him! *minor tantrum*

And NO I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT BELIEVE OUR INCREDIBLE LUCK!! I really really hope they heap it with extra footage and lotsa lotsa commentary. o0o0o. Speaking of which, is there a commentary track on the PoA DVD? I don't think I've ever checked. I know there's all that computer games and find-the-snitch nonsense on there, buuut I don't think I ever came across a commentary track. I should check.

The 7-7-07 thing would be Amazing. I do hope that's how it ends up happening. Good to know that we still have over a year to brace ourselves for The End. Gosh, I don't know how I'm going to cope with life after reading the last word and having it all just..be Over.

And I'm *SOJEALOUS* that you'll be visiting London!! Hope it's spectacular!

I agree Feathers, they need a cast commentary on GOF.

I don't know how to post this wmp link on here for some reason, but go to http://www.mugglenet.com/ , look for the heading "Daniel Interviewed on Sunrise" or something from Dec. 1, and follow that link.

I don't believe there's any commentary on HP3, which sucks. I just tried to navigate the second disc this morning to no avail. (You know, it's cute and all to use names like "Hagrid's Hut" and "Defense Against the Dark Arts" instead of the name of the actual feature - ie. "Cast interviews", etc. - but it gets really old and sort of confusing - keep it simple, sweeties!) And JFTR, can I just say how obnoxious that Jamaican talking head is? He "interviews" the cast, and I'm actually embarrassed for them - Dobby's a relatively more welcome CGI character, which really puts this into perspective.

I really hope there'll be a cast commentary for GOF - it could happen, I mean, they'll mostly all be together in February anyway, but I'm not holding my breath. Shame, because commentaries are usually my favorite feature on a DVD.

I'm both excited and sad to see everything come together in 2007. According to Rowling, the last word in the final book (she's written the last two chapters already) is "scar" so I've been trying to figure out what it could mean.
