the last statement almost made me cry!! oh Dan!!!

i picked out my favorite answers from Dan:

"During the Slughorn home's scene, Dan and David voice how good of a scene it is in the fact that it introduces the world of magic."

Dan mentioned a rule he and Rupert shared, in that if they have a birthday and aren't on set for it, they won't receive a present.

On Bellatrix: Dan thinks Bella is childlike and also evil; David said that you look in her eyes and she feels a little bit out of control. Dan stated that he's become a bit like Helena Bonham Carter's personal assistant on the set of Deathly Hallows, in that he's constantly picking up after her.

Dan and David were gushing over the quality of the Half-Blood Prince Blu-ray (it was the first time Dan used it). Dan noted that Emma's image on Blu-ray is her only competition in terms of beauty.

For the birds used in the Vanishing Cabinet Draco uses in the Room of Requirement in Half-Blood Prince, Dan said it took him a few readings to figure out its significance.

On Ron and Lavender's kiss, Dan said he lost all professionalism that day and teased and joked with Rupert all day. He said that Matthew Lewis teased him on the Order of the Phoenix set about Harry and Cho's kiss, so it was time for revenge.

Dan lists Rupert's cars: bright-orange Range Rover; ice cream van that was recently repaired and does actually make ice cream; he used to have a mini-cooper with Knight Rider designs; a Chevy pick-up truck that never works (which he brings onto the set to show off); and a hovercraft. He said that Rupert wouldn't be the kind of person to show off what he bought, and would just mention it in passing. David also got night-goggles for Rupert so he can ride on his hovercraft in the dark.

Dan on the Sectumsempra scene was like he and Tom "playing cowboys and Indians."

Dan said that he's broken about seven wands on set; Devon Murray about eight; but David Thewlis holds the record at about 12.

Of the memories he'd like to keep, Dan said he'd choose his first days of school. Plus, Dan said that all the things he could recall, he already remembered, so he wouldn't have to keep them.

Dan said that he was the one who told Gary Oldman that Sirius died on the set of Prisoner of Azkaban in 2003. When Harry mourned Dumbledore's body at the end of Half-Blood Prince, Dan said that Michael kept pulling faces to distract him.

Dan says that he'll miss the friends he's made on set and working with the crew in the series after it's done, and hopes to work with them after Harry Potter is over.
