this is a highly reduced versions of only the trivia that interested me AND had capturable images.
Honeydukes "is floor-to-ceiling psychedelia" and includes Mexican skulls made of sugar. The cast was told that the Honeydukes candy was lacquer-coated, when in fact it wasn't, to prevent candy from disappearing between takes.
captured the scene, but the entire psychedelia is not shown in just one frame. Thinking of doing a small filmstrip with this one. Tommorrow. Have to sleep sometimes soon now.
Cameo: [Ian Brown] the singer (formerly of the Stone Roses) appears briefly in the bar at the start of the movie reading "A Brief History of Time". He was originally cast as the pub landlord, but the role was cut right down due to timing issues.
On the fountain in the courtyard exit to Hogsmeade, there are several statues of Eagles eating snakes. This is a commemoration to director Alfonso Cuarón and his mexican heritage, as the exact image appears on the Mexican flag.
When Harry, Hermione, and Ron are returning to the school from Hagrid's hut when after witnessing Buckbeak's execution, Hermione hugs Ron and Harry hugs Hermione - a reference to Cuarón's movie Y tu mamá también (2001).
... this movie was sexually explicit in nature. Eew. You can probably see that from the pic. This however, reminded me of Humraaz...
which in turn was inspired from "a perfect murder." And that movie does not have such a hug scene...
Director Cameo: [Alfonso Cuarón] the man seated holding two lit candles when Harry enters Madame Rosmerta's Tavern.
i spotted only one candle though
During the scene where we first meet Buckbeak the Hippogriff, just after Ron pushes Harry forward there is a shot of the animal pooping. The CGI team believes this might be the first example of a CGI animal doing this, but the Discovery Channel miniseries "Walking with Dinosaurs" (1999) had done it first.
I had to watch it twice to see it. Can hardly make out. Its like four pixels moving downwards for two secs. Mebbe a gif anim will help... but premiere is acting up again. Some fucking problem with the audio channels.
In the classroom scene where Lupin (David Thewlis) puts on a gramophone while the students fight a Boggart, we see a close-up of the gramophone, and on it is the word 'Thewlis'.
turning in now. Called a friend. definate plans for going up the hill on sunday. cool. Feeling hungry now. Might eat curd rice before sleeping. Going swimming tommorrow, and buying a enw watch.
SMSed a friend and the network is taking a lot of fucking time. Too late now anyway.. so.
cant blog now. Some sify problem. Will save this and do it tommorrow.
2:33 right now...
