Will J.K. Rowling kill Harry Potter?:
Interesting news for the Harry Potter fans, author J.K. Rowling said two characters will die in the seventh and last book.
"The final chapter is hidden away," Rowling explains, "Although it's now changed very slightly. One character got a reprieve. But I have to say two die that I didn't intend to die, a price has to be paid. We are dealing with pure evil here. They don't target extras do they? They go for the main characters. Well, I do.
I'm gonna kill them off because that means there can be no non-author written sequels. So it will end with me, and after I'm dead and gone they won't be able to bring back the character."
Wow, that woman sounds like a coldblooded hitman.

Tarantino and Rodriguez talk Grind House!!!:
Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, both fans of the old school horror and cult flicks, are now making
their own little slasher flick called Grind House. Each will direct a one-hour film, and the two will be bridged by fake trailers.
The directors talked to EW about Grind House, here's what Rodriguez had to say:
Where did the idea for Grind House come from?
I used to go to Quentin's house and he'd show me these movies in his home theater. He'd always program the night with some really great trailers from the era and then a feature, then a few more trailers, and then another feature. And I was like, ''Man, we have to re-create these nights for the rest of the world!'' And right then, he was like, ''We have to call it Grind House!''
Why do you love the exploitation movies of the '70s so much?
A lot of these movies, when Quentin would show them, the prints would be in disrepair. So sometimes you'd miss key lines of dialogue, or you could tell whole scenes were cut out because the film broke there.
We tried to use that stuff to our favor. In my film, we have a missing reel. A sign comes up in the second-half that says ''Missing Reel.'' It's like you went on a 20-minute bathroom break and you come back and all hell's broken loose.
Hehe, the missing-reel idea is awesome! Tarantino's film will be a slasher flick about a guy who kills girls with his car. Rodriguez will make a zombie movie. Grind House is set for a 2007 release, click on the above link for
the rest of the cool interview.
