Twilight: Potter's latest nemesis? In the movie business anyway...
…for absolutely no reason it would seem. Distraught Harry Potter fans can only speculate and then bombard Warner Bros. with online petitions. Christopher Campbell of Spout Blog listed his 10 reasons as to why the sixth Potter instalment has been postponed. One of the most convincing has to be the fact that Twilight, the latest page to screen adaptation, is to be released around three weeks after the original Potter date. Twilight, the fantasy story of a young girl who falls in love with a vampire (*cough Buffy *cough) is the first of three books, written by Stephanie Meyer, and has gained quite a following. In the absence of HP, Meyer’s dark and slightly adult tales quickly became the new hot topic and the latest must-have on everybody’s bookshelf. Whatever, the reasoning, we will all have to wait at least seven months longer for ‘The Half Blood Prince’ *sigh.
