Harry Potter News and Commentary
Posts tagged as:
Just a reminder that the Potter Pundits will be appearing live tonight, March 6, 2010, at Pace University in the NYC area. For those who can’t make it in person (and I suspect that’s many of us), the good news is that Pottercast will be offering a livestream of the event. You can find the livestream here. The event starts at 7PM Eastern Standard Time. Tune in to hear the Potter Pundits–Travis Prinzi, John Granger, and James Thomas–discuss Harry Potter as great literature!

First, let’s start off with a folly. A rumor has it that Robert Pattinson may take over the role of Marvel super-hero Spider-Man, which Tobey Maguire is vacating. My gut response to that is “NO, NO, NO!! Please God don’t let it be so!!!!” But that could just be an overreaction on my part; it is after all just a rumor for now. 
Second, on to the forum. Just a reminder that The Hogshead now has a forum. We’re up to 42 registered members and over 70 topics. Some of the more recent topics and active ones are on Wandless Magic, A Topic for Strange Potter Questions, Books Read in 2010, Humor in Chamber of Secrets, Opera, and Should the Potter Movies Have Been Made, among many others. Please feel free to check out the forum and get involved.

Monday Reminders
by revgeorge on January 25, 2010
Just some reminders for this Monday afternoon. First, remember The Hogshead now has a forum available for even more discussion on things Potter and whatever else you want to talk about. We just reached 50 members. Congrats to mrmathman for being the 50th member!! If you haven’t joined yet, feel free to check out the forum and join in the conversations.
Relief efforts for Haiti are continuing. Just a reminder that The Harry Potter Alliance, in conjunction with many other HP fandom sites, is continuing its Helping Haiti Heal campaign. By donating to their campaign you earn various entries for drawings of items that have been donated by various people and organizations. JK Rowling has donated a full British edition set of the HP books plus a handwritten note of thanks. To earn a chance for that gift, a donation of $100 is asked. Lots of other items at various levels of giving are available, including several books donated by our own Travis Prinzi. The proceeds go to support the organization Partners in Health. Donations are open until January 30th at 11:59PM. If you’re so inclined check out this opportunity to help out the people of Haiti. This drive raised over $33,000 in under six hours on Saturday, but I’m sure they could use more.
In other efforts for Haiti, DriveThruRPG is offering a fantastic deal for people who enjoy role-playing games. Through January 31st, if you donate $20, which will go to Doctors Without Borders, you will get over a $1000 in role-playing games and supplements in pdf format. You can also donate $5 or $10 amounts which will be matched. So far, they’ve raised over $130,000. I’m downloading all my pdf’s even as I write.
So, that’s the reminders for Monday. Thanks!
