If you are interested in having a look at our highly detailed (and somewhat scientific) analysis, we have a link to the presentation materials here. Please let us know what you think!

I came along to the convention because Rachael told me “it was part of my contract.” I was able to hoodwink the Muggles into giving me money and I procured reservations for my own hospitality parlor and king suite.

The rest of the details for the event are posted here. I plan to bring a lawsuit for intentional infliction of emotional distress to an owl and am gathering evidence via this Flickr group. Please post any pics from the meetup there.

You are cordially invited to the Sitting Room at Spinner’s End to pass the time sneering, Snape-ing, and hexing Gryffindors socializing over libations, snacks, and greying underpants on Friday evening before the Night of a Thousand Wizards. It is our dearest hope that a few hours relaxing and Snape-ing will provide a much needed break between the stimulating formal programming of Friday afternoon and the excitement and mayhem of the Night of a Thousand Wizards.

Where: The Sitting Room at Spinner’s End (hospitality suite in the conference hotel TBA – currently unplottable)

When: 6:00-9:00pm, Friday, July 16th

What: Snape-ing, of course

We kindly ask that you R.S.V.P. via the poll located here.

A link with the all three the videos is here. Here is a short summary of the content from a Snape fan perspective…

Video 1 (located here): Rickman talks about the importance of story telling and discusses what happens when it is mixed with commercialism.

Video 2 (located here): Rickman responds “I don’t know” to a question about what attracted him to his character in Harry Potter. His teaser for the upcoming Harry Potter film: “It’s the last one.” Not exactly true since Deathly Hollows will be a two parter. There is a bit of discussion about the different directors in the series as well.

Video 3 (located here): Rickman mentions a few scenes with just Ralph Fiennes. Will we see Snape and Voldemort strolling around the Malfoy Mansion together with the white peacocks? There is also mention of a scene with 300 kids. Headmaster Snape?

This interview definitely offers fodder about how much Snape there will be in Deathly Hollows. Will we even get a death scene?

As a mentor to new writers, host of the Quaffle Talk podcast, and valued friend to all who knew her, simons _flower touched more lives than can be expressed in the form of a post to this blog. Although her death was sudden and much too soon, it served as an example to illustrate the love and kinship in this fandom. Sometimes pictures are more effective than words in expressing emotions and that may be the case here…

Look at that technique. Snape definitely has some hardcore dueling experience.

Unfortunately this may cause some stress for Azkatraz convention goers, many of whom planned their travel around a midnight release on July 17, 2009. HPEF has yet to make a decision to change show times or convention schedules, but they are keeping everyone in the loop.

Snape has expressed extreme displeasure with this situation as it will inevitably inflict an extra day of lunacy upon him. First Warner Brothers ruined his summer vacation plans and now the increase in fangirling that comes with every movie (especially this one) will start one day early. Looks like it’s time to break of the fire whiskey.

Snape fans will most certainly be financially impacted by this announcement as those of us who have already bought tickets to the July 17 midnight showing will have to purchase tickets for the new earlier release date. How could we imagine seeing Harry Potter and Severus Snape two days later than everyone else?

Thanks to Coz X for this tip!

You catch and download various versions of the trailer here. And here are the screencaps of the Snapey bits…

I believe we have some Killing Curse action…

Dumbledore better watch out…

And the angsty burning house scene…

*shivers*

Click on the image below to see the details…

Yes, Narcissa’s hair is a bit wonky. And I don’t see any elf made wine…

First we have a really nice Snape wand action shot…

And then the infamous Unbreakable Vow scene…

And we have to wait HOW long to see this film?

How are we supposed to survive the winter without our Snapey fix?

The official movie web site reflects the change and a rationalization for the move can be found here.

But there is a silver lining on this pair of graying underpants: the new release date coincides with Azkatraz, HPEF’s 2009 conference in San Fransisco. The organizers have arranged tickets at a nearby IMAX for the first midnight showing. For more information check out the announcement here or join the Azkatraz LJ community.

to get those snarky juices flowing! As you may have noticed, we
here at Snapecast are still riding high on the energy and excitement
of all the Snapey events this summer. And it appears that we’re not
alone; many Snapefans are experiencing fresh bursts of inspiration
and creativity when it comes to our favourite Greasy Git.

Snapecast would like to invite our listeners to share some of that
inspiration by sending us a This Slytherin Life or Detention
Intervention segment. More than a year after the publication of
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, how do you feel about Snape?
What has changed? What hasn’t?

Need some examples? Here are the timestamps for a few segments from previous episodes:

Shannon’s This Slytherin Life: Episode 1, 50:07
Peg Kerr’s This Slytherin Life: Episode 13, 44:43
Chris’s This Slytherin Life: Episode 4, 54:09
Zille’s This Slytherin Life: Episode 10, 31:41
Rachael’s Detention Intervention: Episode 3, 32:45
Laura’s Detention Intervention: Episode 6, 56:32

For more information about content and formatting for This Slytherin
Life and Detention Intervention, please visit our Contribute page. Questions regarding the
recording of your segments may be sent directly to Snapecast’s
Minister of Mixing at becca @ snapecast.com.

We look forward to hearing your Snapey thoughts!

Unfortunately the previews do not include an appearance by the title character, Severus Snape. Poor Sevy.

Because Warner Brothers won’t give us our Snapey fix, Snapecast will be putting out a special “Happy Birthday Harry” episode featuring audio from the live Snapecast at Portus. Stay tuned for upcoming episodes featuring audio from SnapeFest and full coverage of the upcoming HBP film.
