| | |  Dame Maggie Smith gets the giggles on GoF set
Digital Spy has a short piece on Dame Maggie Smith, Professor McGonagall in the Potter films, briefly discussing filming for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Quote:
Dame Maggie Smith finds it hard not to burst into laughter when she is playing the part of Professor Minerva McGonagall in the Harry Potter movies.
She blames the films' scripts for giving her and her co-stars the giggles.
Maggie explains her dilemma: "It's hilarious. You feel such a berk.
"There's this wonderful first assistant and he'll be saying, 'Now Harry goes down among the dragons.' And you have to hold yourself because if you lose it for a second you're sunk."
Thanks to Mugglenet for the tip! | |

I imagine that it would be pretty funny to work on any movie involving special effects. It's like, "Look over here... that's a boy. Now, quick -react! The elf is hitting himself with a lamp!"

hmm i dont understand what shes laughin about maybe its that dry english humor
i can never really put together their ads on tv i dont know when its supposed to be funny i dont think id blend in very well on a set like that when everyones laughing and you dont get the joke
the only perosn who can make me laugh is me i know its kinda sad but laughin is contagious
maybe they spiked the tea  | |

Yea, I imagine it would be hard to not start laughing while you are following around a tennis ball on a stick. I bet the actors are having a great time, espically with all the special effects that are going into this movie.

I have such admiration for actors - I'm the worst at keeping a straight face! Well, if they're having fun, the audience is guaranteed to have fun too

I want Maggie Smith to be my friend!!! It sounds like she has the same sense of humour as me - one that makes people go "I can't believe you!"
*claps hands*
I'm glad they're all having fun making the films though...

The joke is having to imagine a dragon there or being told "You see that green screen? Yeah well, it's not a green screen, it's a big scary dragon. OK. And it's coming after Harry. OK, now, action!!"
Seriously, who could do that with a straight face?!

The joke you other guys thought of was funny 2, but wasn't my immediate thought. Which was something like 'can they really post that on here'. It's indeed very smutty!
