| | | Yates wants to blow up Millennium bridge for HBP
In a new interview with The Guardian David Yates, director of Order of the Phoenix & Half-Blood Prince, talks about quidditch and sex and the possibility of blowing up a bridge for the sixth film. Quote:
Yates is already imagining how to adapt The Half-Blood Prince. "We start shooting in eight to 10 weeks. In the book, bridges blow up. I want to take down the Millennium bridge." What, don't you like Norman Foster's iconic bridge? "I love it. I just love the idea of destroying it."
Quote:
I leave Yates in purgatory. Damn, I forgot to ask him the big question. Why no quidditch, damn you? "Two words," I can imagine him saying, in his gently mocking Merseyside accent. "Bor. Ring. How many quidditch games do you need to see at the pictures? No offence, mate." It would have been a good answer.

The bridge blowing is only mentioned, so it's not particularily important. Quidditch, on the other hand, IS IMPORTANT! I know some directors and some actors don't like it very much, but it's a very important part of the story, especially in HBP, let's hope they don't cut it this time around.

Like the cast said, it's pretty difficult to put Quidditch in when you're trying to make the whole movie into 2 and a half hours.
