Harry Potter News Reel: Site News
With the recent acceptance of Harry Potter News Reel news poster Aragorn into Harry Potter's Page news posting staff, Harry Potter News Reel is changing. Rather than close the site completely, RSS feeds of all major news sources for the site will be available at your disposal. (Frankly, it seems a bit silly to post in two places.)

Potter Trio of Forbes' List on Most Powerful Celebrities Under 25
Story Overview:

New Photos from Half-Blood Prince Filming
Story Overview:
PotterManiac Galleries have new photos from the Half-Blood Prince filming. Translation from
PotterManiac's story, translated:
"Beware, it's time to boggle your mind. While filming the sixth film of the Harry Potter saga, Half-Blood Prince, a huge and mysterious construct is being built within the confines of Leavesden studios. After a long study of the photos of this huge structure, we still have not quite managed to solve its mystery as to what it could be in Half-Blood Prince."
Perhaps this structure is the orphanage? What do you think?
