| | | New interviews with Mike, Dan & Emma Dark Horizons and Reuters have new interviews with Mike Newell, Dan Radcliffe and Emma Watson. Mike mentions his reaction to going in a chat room and finding fans 'bashing' Hermione's Yule Ball dress. Quote: Question: Now, Mike, that's all very well, but on the other hand you also have to deal with the pressures of the audience for this franchise, which can be very, very critical, how mindful were you of that? Newell: Well quite, and then, you know, as things progressed more and more... I mean for instance quite recently, I saw a piece that appeared n a chatroom that was, was outraged that we had changed Hermione's ball dress from the blue of the novel to the pink of, of the film. Outraged! And a very, very lively and tense chatroom discussion sprang off that. Now I knew about that to start with, I knew that there was an audience that was rabid to a degree, and that we of course could not disappoint them.
Quote: Question: Would you ever be persuaded to go back to Potter again? Newell: Oh, yeah - you know, I think when it comes to the last one there'll be queue a mile long. I'll certainly be there.
Quote:
"I very clearly remember that within a couple of months of starting work I was intensely angered by the lack of money, that there wasn't enough money to make the film properly and that really ****** me off," Newell told Reuters.
He gave the example of the effects-laden opening scene, set at the Quidditch World Cup, which was the subject of heated debate among filmmakers and producers.
Eventually he argued successfully for its inclusion, saying that without it Potter fans would feel short-changed
. Quote:
"I'm going to go to university. I don't know what I'm going to study yet, but I think this business is such a temperamental one; one minute you're up there and the next -- nothing." [Emma Watson]

| Wow.. The fans who went psycho on account of Hermione's dress being pink need to get a grip. I mean, I'm a diehard fan of Harry Potter and the whole bit (otherwise why would I be posting on this site? LoL), but I think that's just a bit much. Just my two cents.

I think the issue is bigger than the colour; it's the fact that in the book Pansy wears a pink, frilly dress robe that looked like something Aunt Petunia might wear. From what we've seen Hermione in the film is wearing Pansy's dress! Plus she has like 8 pink oufits. It's probably to promote her feminity but still, can we say, overkill? haha

cool interviews. i think it's great for emma to go to a university. acting is so unpredictable so it's great that she will have something to fall back on if she decides to continue acting.

i still don't understand why they changed the color of the dress. i mean i understand when they take off scenes and everything.. but why change the color of a dress?
well, what is done is done and i can't do anything about it, so..
it is very nice that emma wants to go to university. though i think that she'd find jobs in the film industry.. i mean she's so famous already.. and talented.
