Glad to hear it! If Radcliffe and the other actors are happy with yates' directing and stauton's performance, then I have no doubt that they won't disappoint the audience. I wish them luck with the rest of the film!

Yeah, Dan will surely get a good feeling for what it's like to work with Imelda Staunton during the filming of OotP, since he's got so much screen time with Umbridge (I assume). It's really important that Umbridge be perfect, but I'm not at all worried about Staunton's performance. Just Grawp's! Haha!
I can't wait to get some more reports from the set!

I'm sure that IS will be brilliant, afterall she does have a stunning resembleanc. As for the director they always say that-I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

It's so cute how he looks up to older and more experienced actors, actresses, and other various showbusiness people.
And he has extremely good musical taste.

I have never heard of those bands before in my life. The only band that I know he has said that he liked were the Sex Pistols. The Sex Pistols are my second favorite band! My favorite band is of course, TAPROOT! All my taproot fans on this site, please post back or Email me. Don't IM me because I never answer IMs from strangers.
Anyway, I am happy that Dan is happy with Yates and Staunton, this should make good kharma on the set.
