Oh God, Alan Rickman in full costume, glaring at the camera, he looks just like Snape in the flesh! How exciting for the kids who are working as extras, though.

I would love to be there and able to see the set. That would be a really cool experience. It is probably so interesting to see how they set everything up and what they just for the various things.
