About Hermione pushing Ron against a wall (2007): "He makes the big mistake of patronizing her. He says "I'll go easy on you" just as they are about to duel and she goes "Right, that's it. You're dead" and absolutely catapults him against a back wall. It was a real "girl power" moment, of which there are many in this film."

This and That

A number of things to tell you about.

First up, some TV reminders:

  • Emma Watson will be a guest on David Letterman tonight on CBS. I will be recording this in HD, but I’m sure others will get it on the web quicker.
  • SBT Channel in Brazil will air a Harry Potter special today with cast interviews.


Update:
EmmaWatsonsMagic has some pictures of Emma arriving for the David Letterman show in their gallery.

Some new TV shows to add to the list:

  • We have a report that Emma, Dan, Rupert and Tom will be on the UK’s T4 this Sunday July 12 all morning. Thanks Hollie for the tip. Update: More reports are coming in that there will be interviews at 8:55am, and 3:35pm.
  • Update on T4: Abz let us know that the T4 channel guide indicates the Half-Blood Prince movie special is on at 11:35am on Saturday the 11th. This one I can confirm, but maybe watch out for something Sunday morning as well.
  • The Warner Channel (Latin America, Southeast Asia) will air a special video of Half-Blood Prince on July 11. They are showing HP1 starting at 8 pm and at some time they will show the video. Thanks ECDW for the tip.

Naomi at TeenVogue let us know that Emma is their Best Dressed star of the month for June. They also have a feature on how to mimic Emma’s August cover style without breaking the bank. And finally, they have a quiz where you can test how well you know Emma.

A reminder that you can vote for Emma to get her own page on People.com. She is up against Dakota Fanning and Miranda Cosgrove. You can vote here. Emma is leading by a small margin and the voting ends July 20. Thanks to Esther at People.com and everyone else who emailed.

You can submit questions to Moviefone for upcoming interviews they’re doing with Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Tom Felton, Michael Gambon and David Yates. The deadline is tomorrow the 9th at 10pm. They also have a feature on their site, “15 Things to Know about Harry Potter and the Half-Blood prince” from a visit to the set where they talked with the trio and others. Thanks Andie for the tip.

In a new update on EWO, Jo has added links for a downloadable version of one of the videos from the UK premiere I posted earlier.

You can now watch the full press conference online (well, the arrival and leaving isn’t there) at Digital Spy. It’s in 2 parts, part 1 is 153 MB, part 2 is 290MB, so definitely not dialup freindly. Because of their size, I won’t add themm to the site until later.

Part 1 with Daniel Radcliffe, Michael Gambon, Bonnie Wright, Tom Felton, David Heyman and David Yates.

Part 2 with Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Jessie Cave, Jim Broadbent and David Barron.

Emma and Rupert on GMTV

Emma Watson and Rupert Grint talked to Kate Garraway on ITV1’s GMTV this morning. It’s a great interview, chatting about the kiss, bum casts, and Emma again emphasizes that she is not done with acting just because she is going to university.

Half Blood-Prince London Press Conference

Along with the photocall today, there was a press conference and press junket interviews for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Videos are starting to appear and we have a few for you below. But first, some recent comments Emma made in interviews got the media buzzing about how she was going to quit acting forever. She says “I don’t really know why they wrote that. I guess it makes more of an interesting headline.” In another quote Emma says, “I am just looking forward to meeting people my own age and having a normal life for once. But that does not mean that I’ll never be acting again. It was always my dream (to go to university) before I did the films and so I don’t see why I should change it.”

In this first video from AP, Emma talks about how the movie is a romantic comedy.
