I can’t hear a thing. My computer’s volume is up and the player’s volume is up, so WHAT’S WRONG? I want to listen to those interviews, dang it!


I do think it’s odd that Bonnie and Evanna got a joint interview again, especially as Matt and Katie got to each have their own.
All in all, though, the interviews were rather good. The interviewer seemed to know what she was talking about, which was nice.

I think it’s definately my system. But, maybe, TLC can shoot us another link??? How ‘bout it?

WHAT?
we didn’t get to hear evanna’s thoughts about DH!!!

No, everythings working. Something’s wrong with the audio, ‘cause other people are having troubles with the vid too.
Can someone PLEASE put them on Youtube or something?!

WOW!!! amazing interviews!!! was soooooooooo sweet when emma was talkin about her sisters in ballet shoes!!!


I can get ‘YouTube’! I never thought of that! YES PLEASE…..what helena123 said! Can someone put it on YouTube?! Give a “holler”, if you do! :)

They won’t load for me either so YouTube postings and/or any suggestions for fixing it are highly appreciated. I see a Loading bar after which nothing happens.

Matt is looking better. I actually felt Emma’s interview was interesting this time. Usually not to much of a fan. I love Evanna, wish she had her own interview. Too bad she had to share time with Bonnie, who is looking awful nowadays. Who cares about the fringe when I can’t figure out what is going on with her face. Plus she doesn’t come off as too intelligent, Evanna is far more interesting to listen to.

I suppose these interviews were made recently. Which means this is how they will look in HBP, and that’s grat because I really really like how Dan looks, I love his hair. And I have to admit he is still the one who gives better interviews, he is the one who looks more confortable, like he is just speaking with a friend. The others young actors don’t look very natural.

In case anyone’s as stupid as me, my problem was simply due to using Firefox. The videos won’t play on Firefox but are fine on IE. Hopefully that will help someone. I’m so excited seeing these interviews, I think it’s great that the press is starting.

awww matt lewis is so awesome getting rob pattinson cornflakes (diva moment much lol) ;)

@beth: “IE”??? I don’t know what that is, but I’m sure my hubbie does. He get’s home, around midnight, so I’ll get it from him. HE lets me do my ‘Harry Potter’ thing, and he LOVES all the books. He even watched the DVD trailer, on TV, at work! (It was on CNN! Can you believe that?) I can’t wait! Thanks, beth! Yer a doll!

Kamion—I don’t want to come off as sounding rude, but sometimes people can’t help it when they stutter.
Sorry, it’s a sore subject for me.

Evanna looked really cute this time round. The best looking (dress wise) out of all of them—including Katie, which is strange since she’s the best dressed, usually.
I love Dan… he’s always such a talker. And ever so polite, shaking the woman’s hand afterwards.

The interviewer called Bonnie “the envy of the world” and you can tell it’s true judging from certain catty comments on here. coughSamcough
Bonnie looked beautiful and I am SO looking forward to her having a larger role. Finally! I hope to hear and see much more from her in the coming months.

The youtube thing?.. I seriously need that too. When I tried to watch the video it uploaded a few seconds at a time so i really couldn’t udnerstand what it was about and I couldn’t go back and start it from the beginning to watch it all. I have extremely slow dial-up so all that works it youtube and that even takes half an hour to load for at least three minutes of footage!. Youtube!!!

Evanna has already been confirmed to be back. And, yes, people, we knew that Spinner’s End was happening before McCrory’s casting. Duh, Bonham Carter siad she was filming in Spring 08 and that’s her only scene in the book…
