I just checked IMDB and saw that Daniel was born in July 1989 and the first film was released in November 2001, so I made a mistake in my previous comment. Anyway, I suppose that means he was 11 when the shooting started.<br /><br />Imagine James Bond aging as the years went by.

HP will be handed down like the Canterbury Tales.<br /><br />There have been marathon screenings of all Star Wars films. I wonder if all 8 HP films will ever be shown in one day?<br /><br />Perhaps it is better for newcomers to see The Philosopher's Stone when they are 13 as Daniel Radcliffe was in 2001 and then only see Tony Coxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8887106662149516337.post-19101404563233798532011-07-16T13:20:59.874+01:002011-07-16T13:20:59.874+01:00Of course it won't.

Wagner's amazing saga The Ring is about 16 hours long needing 4 visits to the opera house.
