With DH1 coming out in November, and DH2 in July 2011, They stand two opportunities to be nominated for their parts in the HP movies.

And there is no need to state that you were first or second. If any of us cared that you were able to comment sooo quickly, we would say something to you. I’m fairly certain everyone on this site can tell who was the first person to comment.
