Facebook smears Google; Disney trademarks “Seal Team 6”; men made ‘Bridesmaids’ suck; more: leftover links
Plus: Johnny Depp can’t see his own 3D POTC movie; Woody Allen sorta down on his own movies; why did Mel Gibson’s The Beaver flop?
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
trailer break: ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2’
Wow! Looks like maybe the Harry Potter finale will do the series justice…
shouldn’t Harry Potter believe magic is “proper”?
Something has been bugging me since I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 last autumn, and now that the film is out on DVD, it’s time to exorcise it…
the oh-yes! DVD of the week: ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (With Dobby Bookend)’

question of the day: Will you rewatch the ‘Harry Potter’ films in preparation for ‘The Deathly Hallows’?
We’re getting close to the beginning of the end of the Harry Potter film franchise: Part 1 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows opens around the world on November 19. Three new TV spots give us more of a hint of what we’re in for…
tres cool: no 3D for ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I is rapidly barreling at us — it releases on November 19 on both sides of the Atlantic — which is good enough news, but now comes even better news for fans of not-sucky films everywhere…
