He doesn't look the type, but he surely looks wasted.

So I went to the bookstore today and while I was there I saw the new American covers for the Harry Potter books. Very Happy

I'd seen the first book's redesigned cover before but not any of the others. You can see the full gallery >here< under 15th Anniversary Edition (since the first US edition was published in 1998), but I also really like the box set and the spine art of each book. Very Happy

ooooooooh

love it!

Yeah I'm really tempted to get it since my paperback copies of the first few HP books are well over a decade old and falling apart from years of mistreatment from when we were younger. Razz

The box set is $100 though and the store also had the Alan Lee illustrated edition of LOTR. (As if I need another copy of LOTR. Laughing

)

That Hogsmeade scene really looks amazing! Very Happy

I'd go for it as well - if I had the money Laughing

more potter univers. found at J.K.R's Facebook.

Warner Bros. announced on 12th September 2013 that J.K. Rowling would be making her screenwriting debut with 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them', the first in a new film series which is part of their expanded creative partnership with J.K. Rowling. The films will be inspired by Harry Potter’s Hogwarts textbook of the same name, and will feature the book’s fictitious author, Newt Scamander.

“It all started when Warner Bros. came to me with the suggestion of turning 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' into a film. I thought it was a fun idea, but the idea of seeing Newt Scamander, the supposed author of 'Fantastic Beasts', realized by another writer was difficult. Having lived for so long in my fictional universe, I feel very protective of it and I already knew a lot about Newt. As hard-core Harry Potter fans will know, I liked him so much that I even married his grandson, Rolf, to one of my favourite characters from the Harry Potter series, Luna Lovegood.

As I considered Warners’ proposal, an idea took shape that I couldn’t dislodge. That is how I ended up pitching my own idea for a film to Warner Bros.

Although it will be set in the worldwide community of witches and wizards where I was so happy for seventeen years, 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' is neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter series, but an extension of the wizarding world. The laws and customs of the hidden magical society will be familiar to anyone who has read the Harry Potter books or seen the films, but Newt’s story will start in New York, seventy years before Harry’s gets underway.

I particularly want to thank Kevin Tsujihara of Warner Bros. for his support in this project, which would not have happened without him. I always said that I would only revisit the wizarding world if I had an idea that I was really excited about and this is it.”

WTF. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a fake textbook. And it's only 50 pages long. How the hell does one make a movie out of that? scratch
