Can't wait for part 2 of this film, but I have to admit part 1 didn't quite live up to what I thought it would be. Still a pretty good film :)

I watched it today... it might be because I haven't read the books but I was dissapointed, thought it was the worst one so far, nothing very much really seemed to happen.

Yeah it actually sticks to the books this one.. Its why alot of people who have read the books are raving about it. But a bunch of people who just follow the movies not raving about it. Dont worry the next episode will contain more then enough for you :)

It is confirmed that 'Harry Potter' character

Severus Snape aka the Half-Blood Prince is going to die in the Boathouse in the upcoming 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows-Part 2'.

So what's the big deal? It is big deal for us 'Harry Potter' fans, because in the book, Snape dies in the Shrieking Shack and not in the Boathouse and of course Snape is a big character he is a key, and everybody loves him.

So why in the Boathouse? The creative team of the film wants to give a romantic ending for Snape. The team wanted to change a bit where Snape dies and to get him out from, not a conventional interior, but from that kind of box, to do it in a more dramatic atmosphere.

So what's the Boathouse? A crystal house, where you can see what happens in the boat house from there. It is near the lake and a very romantic place to die.

Hmm...whilst this isn't a big change, am I not right in thinking that they wanted to make it into 2 parts so as not to miss anything out/make it more true to form? Ah well. Still going to watch it, and still going to love it.

I'm still seething about the decision to change Snape's location for his death. I just think that with everything else that the Shrieking Shack has been used for.. it just shouldn't change anything. I don't want to romanticize his death like that because it's not until AFTER his death we realize who Snape really was.

DAMN THESE 'CREATIVE' PEOPLES! :(

Warner Bros has released a first look photo of Matthew Lewis, one of the stars of the upcoming "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2," in character as Neville Longbottom with the fateful sword of Gryffindor - and he looks every bit as awesome as we imagined him. We don't want to spoil it for fans who haven't read the books (seriously, who are you people?) but let's just say that Neville will get his hero moment before the franchise is over.

In an interview with SnitchSeeker, Lewis explains that the final scene of the film -- the "epilogue" if you will -- had to be re-shot because paparazzi and onlookers swarmed the cast the first time they tried to shoot it.

"They were really rushed and they didn't get what they wanted," he says. "So they felt they could do it in the studio with no distractions. I spoke to David Yates recently. He's very happy in the editing room, he says. He said he's really enjoying it. So he must have everything he wants."

He teases that there's a Neville scene in the final movie that wasn't in the book. "It's a new one they put in. It involves a bridge, that's all I can say. Involves a bridge and Nick Moran," he says, referencing one of the Snitchers. "It took us weeks and weeks of night shoots and stunts and all kinds of stuff. If it's all in there - I hope it's in there because it took us so bloody long to do it - and if it's all kept in there the way we did it then it's going to be amazing. That's what I'm most looking forward to."

    • The future of Samsung's AI-powered education system

      By KMilenkoski1202 · Posted

      So, recently, I saw on the news (yes, on this website) that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.
