JK Rowling's Life Story Turned into Lifetime Movie of the Week

Lifetime, a television channel that is apparently an expert in creating made-for-TV movies with anvil-sized morals about the dangers of promiscuity and drug abuse, now tackles a slightly more tasteful subject with the story of JK Rowling's pre-Harry Potter upbringing. In Magic Beyond Words: the JK Rowling Story, the author's life is reimagined for the small screen, from her awkward childhood, her time spent as an ESL teacher in Portugal, right up to her experience writing the first Harry Potter book.

Well, whatever floats your boat I suppose. The movie officially aired yesterday at 8 pm EST, though doubtless there will be reruns.

Deathly Hallows Part 2 Makes a Truckload of Money, Sun to Rise Tomorrow

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is, unsurprisingly, king of the midnight box office. Screenings for Thursday's 12 am showing raked in $43.5 million (USD), crushing the previous record held by Eclipse.

DH2 has already secured $100 million in revenue and it's not even the official opening weekend yet.

Do you think the film will set the record for biggest opening ever? And/or highest grossing film EVER? Wouldn't that be magical...

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II Has a PC Demo, For Some Reason

The critical drubbing the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I video game received was ridiculously harsh even by licensed-game standards. Despite this, it seems Warner Bros. Interactive are not about to give up on this new Gears of War-inspired take of Potter play just yet. A demo of the PC version has been released and is available here, supporting both keyboard/mouse and an Xbox 360 gamepad. If you don't want to subject yourself to playing it, I've embedded playthroughs of the demo's two levels (a Battle of Hogwarts slaughterfest as Harry, and a boss fight against Fenrir Greyback as Hermione) after the break.

WB Has Some B-Roll Footage for You

Are you a fan of poor-quality videos with shaky-cam, taken straight from a movie set without any of the sound replaced and tons of green screen? Then do we have something great for you!

In all seriousness though, the two B-reels that Warner Bros. has released from the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 set is rather interesting. We get to see our first glimpse of Aberforth Dumbledore and his rockin' beard in action, as well as B-rolls of some scenes which were previously released as finished clips. For instance, did you know the door to the Chamber of Secrets is an actual prop, and not just CG?

I've embedded both videos below.
