USA Today published the first picture from Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1, the seventh Harry Potter movie.  I don’t really care about Harry Potter either way, but compared to Twilight, it’s nice that JK Rowling can at least write at above a fifth grade level.  Anyway, it appears this one’s about Ron Weasely’s struggle to distract from his face and hair by pairing stripes with checkers and plaid.

The first installment of the two-part Deathly Hallows finds young wizards Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson) struggling to find their way in the Muggle (human) world, with their own lives in the balance and the fate of the magical realm in their hands. -USA Today

In related news, Video Business also talked to director David Yates, who confirmed that Daniel Radcliffe will appear naked at one point during the last two movies.
In one scene, “a horcrux [carrying a piece of Voldemort's soul] defends itself by producing nightmarish visions, and one shows Hermione and Harry embracing and kissing,” explained Yates. “It’s something intriguing and sensual for Rupert to react to, and Dan will be bare for that.” -ComingSoon

Jesus Christ, Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe will be naked together while Rupert Grint watches?  They’re gonna have to use a special filter to film that. JJ Abrams might have to come collect the lens flares for his next Star Trek movie.  I haven’t seen that much pale skin in the same room since I skinned those pale chicks.

If you thought Twilight fangirls were weird, check out video after the jump of Japan’s most obsessive Harry Potter fangirl meeting Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe.  Above is the moment when she tells Grint he has “silver eyelashes” and begs to touch them.

Sanma Akashiya’s “Karakuri Terebi” held a contest last month in which 10,000 of Japan’s biggest Harry Potter fans competed for a chance to travel to the UK and interview the stars of the new Harry Potter movie. As a comedy show, they intentionally picked the strangest fans as finalists. A girl named Kana was the grand prize winner. [JapanProbe via /Film]

Other highlights include her wafting Grint’s scent to toward her face at the 1:18 mark.  “You smell great!” she says.  He tells her she smells great too, and she says that’s funny because people usually tell her she smells like a granny.  Jesus, if you could harness the awkward energy in these videos it could power a city.  It’s funny, being pre-sex age makes girls do crazy things like squeal uncontrollable and beg to touch eyelashes.  Being post sex-age makes them do crazy things like join the Clay Aiken fan club and watch Dr. Phil.  I see only one solution. (*points to crotch*)

Emma Watson is super purty, and thank God she’s 19 now so I can say that without whispering it while looking over my shoulder.  If ogling girls born in the 90s is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

These were taken at the premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in London last night.  Daniel Radcliffe also showed up, and holy sh-t can we get this kid a stylist?  You couldn’t possibly make him look more like Little Lord Fauntleroy than this.  He’s paler than the ginger kid, he’s sporting a haircut that would’ve gotten your ass kicked even in the 80s, and that suit looks like if a jockey got a job as an undertaker.  I love the three shot where Emma Watson is completely dry and looks like a fairy princess and they other two look like trolls they dredged from the moat.

Rupert Grint, the guy who plays Ron Weasley in Harry Potter, is reportedly recovering from a “mild case” of Swine Flu, the pandemic that’s still going to ravage the Earth like killer bees did when we were kids, if you believe what you hear on the local news.

Christian Hodell of Hamilton Hodell management said Saturday that Grint took a few days away from the set of the latest film, but has now been able to return to work.

Man, first you name him “Rupert Grint*,” then he comes out a hideous ginger, and now he’s got swine flu?  Poor kid can’t catch a break. You know, other than being a famous movie star and getting to make out with Emma Watson.  God I hate my life.

*What the hell do you call a guy named Rupert, anyway?  Ru?  Rupe? Pert? I’m guessing he gets a lot of “hey, dipshit,” and slaps upside the head.

Rupert Grint, the ginger Harry Potter co-star with the gay caveman-esque name, is set to star in a movie called Cherrybomb.  Get it?  Cherry?  Bomb?  OH HOW HUMOROUSLY APT!

*sigh*

Additionally, "grint" is the sound it makes when you whack off on the shitter.  *grint grint grint grint* …Not gonna lie, I’m keeping it pretty high brow today.
