Rupert Grint: Likes to stand out and owning strange vehicles

Rupert Grint has shed a tear or two when he filmed the last scene of the ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’, but he too is looking forward to a life that is not run by Harry Potter anymore. He is ready to give himself the time and be in a relationship too, as he believes the last ten years though has been the best but didn’t give him the time to be in a relationship.

Though he finds it is strange at times that everyone knows him, but Grint has no problem being that special one, as he loves to stand out and not be everybody also enjoys the fact that he has the money to buy things that he loves. Those purchases may not be very practical ones but still he loves them.

Be it his latest purchases like a hovercraft which is “strange to drive” but he has his fun with that, or his orange Range Rover. Not very long ago he bought an ice cream van for himself. As a child he always wanted one, but though he is not able to use the van much as it has only one sit and once he used to stock it up, but not anymore.

Grint does agree that his ice cream van is kind of an impractical vehicle but he loves it and he loves his other vehicles too and as he likes to stand out in the crowd his vehicles surely does.

Robert Pattinson: Spend time with him on-set for $32,500 but there’s a catch

All the Twilight fans and mainly the Robert Pattinson or team Edward Cullen sit up and get ready to meet the amazing vampire on the sets of ‘Breaking Dawn’ in Vancouver. All you have to do is just shell out a meager amount of $32,500, not much just your tuition fee for college.

But for quite a lot of Rob’s fans that’s nothing compared to the experience of meeting the guy, the Sexiest Man Alive for many even if People mag has other opinion. Also the money will be used for a good cause; it will be donated to the Go Campaign. The perks not only ends at meeting Robert Pattinson the money will also give you the opportunity to spend an entire day at the sets of ‘Breaking Dawn’.

The list has two more bonuses, a VIP limo service and a stay for two nights in Vancouver’s Four Season Hotel. But there is a clause in this entire meet up, firstly you have to pay your own airfare, even if that’s alright, there is no hundred percent surety that you can meet Rob as meeting with him will depend on the 24year old’s acting schedule.

Also if you do get the chance to meet Rob and spend the entire day on the sets, you cannot brag about seeing the shootings and what went on as you have to sign a “non-disclosure agreement”. But even all these clauses seems petty compared to the opportunity to meet Robert Pattinson, right guys?

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Review: Spellbinding and Hypnotic

Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint starring Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I has hit theatres worldwide and has cast a mesmerising spell on its sea of muggle fans.

The film is a brilliant outing by director David Yates who offers a sublime yet dark adventure ride to the movie goers. The film is basically a road movie as the 3 wizard friends- Harry Potter and his allies Emma Watson and Rupert Grint set out on their mission to hunt down and destroy Vodemort’s secret to immortality.

But in their Hogwarts-free environment, the comfort of safety is replaced by the omnipresent lurking fear of some dark power or a sneaking Death Eater. Even amidst solitude and quarrels, the power of friendship survives and takes the trio to a tumultuous ride.

Radcliffe is brilliant as usual; Rupert shines in the garbs of a revolting friend but the film clearly belongs to Emma who is right there from the very beginning till the end planning out their activities and assisting them to apparate and disapparate.

The film is certainly darker than its prequels and has moments of wit thrust in some rib-tickling scenes. The camera work and cinematography is of unassailable quality and the climax is perfectly suited triggering intense curiosity about the final battle which shall mark the conclusion when Deathly Hallows Part II releases on July, 2011.
