Sure, sure, you reckon you’ve got this “magical world” thing pretty much figured out – you’re more of a Ron than a Hermione, more a Boggart than a Grindylow, and you’re definitely closer to a Hagrid than a Dumbledore (no offence). But have you ever really put this horrifying presumption to the test? Take our quiz to discover the truth about your magical personality, and be warned – muggle types need not apply.

Over the last decade, Harry Potter has played a part in a number of our Christmases. A less painful tradition than the Queen’s deceptively short speech, we review The Boy Who Lived’s six Christmases to date. From Christmas in the girls toilets to Yuletide in a burning Burrow, we pose the question: just why is the boy wizard synonymous with Christmas?

It All Ends Here. Almost. As the decade-spanning juggernaut that is the Harry Potter film franchise rumbles ponderously towards that massively unsatisfying last chapter, we skipped the queues for a preview of what we expected to be a film reminiscent of its predecessors – pretty, but ultimately as disappointing as pulling Neville’s broom keys out of a bowl at a wizarding swingers’ party. We were wrong. If Part 2 is this good, the last two films may just vindicate the entire series.

Spielberg? Potter? Cartoon? Mental.

After bloody years of speculation, Martin Freeman has finally been confirmed in the role of Bilbo for Peter Jackson’s much-delayed Hobbit project.

You know the Cravendale adverts? You know, the stop-motion animation where a cow, a pirate and a cyclist all live together, living off milk and competing in musical statue for the last glass? Well, picture a feature length film in that style, in French and with more imagination then you could use to power the whole of Whoville and you’ve got the gloriously absurd and playful A Town Called Panic.

Warner Bros are in trouble. Money trouble. And who better to save them then comic book heroes. Well, if they can save a baby from a burning building, who’s to say they can’t get Warner Bros out of a financial black hole?

There’s no doubt about it; cinema ain’t what it used to be. What with new and improved seating, 3D films assaulting your retinas and more snacks then you can shake your expanding belly at, going to the flicks has become somewhat different to that of our forefathers. So who’s for an extra-crispy, oven-roasted, honey-glazed, menagerie of cinema with extra sprinkles, all topped with a quails egg?

Warner Brothers have revealed the point at which the first half of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will end. Warning: spoilers!

The estate of the late British author Adrian Jacobs is suing US publisher Scholastic for breach of copyright with regard to J.K Rowling’s fourth book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
