Daniel Radcliffe "Miffed" About Harry Potter's Deathly Oscar Curse
There's no shortage of magic in the Harry Potter films, but there's one thing the beloved boy wizard could never conjure: Oscar love.
Although the franchise has racked up a total of 12 nominations, it hasn't won a single statuette. Even worse, it's never been recognized in any of the artistic categories, including Best Picture.
Star Daniel Radcliffe isn't a happy camper when it comes to the snub, and he's now giving people a piece of his mind...
Daniel Radcliffe vs. Robert Pattinson: Who's Winning...and Who's Losing?
Daniel Radcliffe had a good weekend, but where does his career stack up against that of another actor who's likewise trying to prove his worth outside of a somewhat-popular franchise?
Let's take a look.
It's Harry Potter's Radcliffe vs. Twilight's Robert Pattinson:
UPDATE!
Harry Potter Wand Not Needed: Daniel Radcliffe Conjures Up a Hit With The Woman in Black
Life after Harry Potter is looking good for Daniel Radcliffe.
Radcliffe's The Woman in Black grossed a scary-good $21 million, per estimates, and gave Chronicle a run for the No. 1 spot in the weekend box-office standings.
Drew Barrymore's slump, meanwhile, continued.
Movie Review: The Woman in Black Is Plenty Spooky, but Barely Twisty
Review in a Hurry: Daniel Radcliffe is sent to a remote village to sort out the affairs of a recently deceased eccentric who lived in a spooky old mansion. There, he sees a whole lotta dead people, but not the helpful kind that haunt Hogwarts.
This supernatural thriller has plenty scares and creepy atmosphere, but the plot could have used more surprises.

Harry Potter's Daniel Radcliffe Feels His New Woman in Black Role Might "Weird People Out"
We know it's kinda odd to see Daniel Radcliffe off doing new, non-Harry Potter things, but that's life!
And aside from bringing on the laughs while hosting Saturday Night Live, the young actor (who will forever remain a wizard in our hearts, let's just admit it) talked to E! News about his biggest project since the franchise ended, The Woman in Black.
Did you know Harry, er, Daniel plays a father?!
Daniel Radcliffe Smooches a Few Hobos, Takes on a Futuristic Harry Potter on Saturday Night Live
Fresh off his Broadway stint in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Daniel Radcliffe hit the Saturday Night Live stage to host the late night laugher for the first time.
"It is so great to be here hosting Saturday Night Live," the Harry Potter star said. "When I agreed to host SNL one of the biggest questions I had was how much should we do with Harry Potter, taking into account that over the years there have been multiple Harry Potter sketches on the show," Radcliffe said. "So I said if at all possible, let's not do one. No one wants to see Dumbledore working at Harry Pottery Barn (Dumbledore walks on stage, then walks off in disappointment). And if we can, let's not do Harry Pothead (Harry Pothead walks out, and walks away with a shrug)."
So, did Radcliffe join the likes of Rachel Dratch and Hugh Jackman and play himself in a Harry Potter sketch?
Morning Mail! Is Taylor Swift's Latest Performance Being Trashed Before It's Even Begun?
Dear Ted:
Everyone seems to be pissed about Taylor Swift getting the role in Les Misérables. I'm actually excited. Do you think she can change people's minds? I think the director must have seen talent in her!
—Kandy
Dear Slow Down:
The role has not been confirmed, babe. But, if it is, must say a musical acting performance is more up Taylor's alley, than, say, Valentine's Day. I, like you, think she'll do a bang-up job! More people should be open to a Swift musical. Seems such a no-brainer, what's the problem? Lea Michele can't do everything.
Dear Ted:
I have been on a Gossip Girl kick lately, and watching that hunky Ed Westwick has made me think he'd be a wonderful James Bond! He has got the accent, bad ass attitude and the smirk for it. Opinions?

Harry Potter Attraction Making Its Way to Hollywood
Harry Potter is going Hollywood.
In the wake of the ginormous success of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the area of Universal Orlando devoted to the popular franchise, a park just like it will soon be created in Tinseltown.
Who Succeeds Best: Daniel Radcliffe or Darren Criss?
Consider it the battle of the bow ties.
We remember way back when in August when it was announced that Glee guy Darren Criss would be replacing Harry Potter's Daniel Radcliffe, and we pointed out that Darren happened to be following a career path muy similar to Daniel's (don't forget, Darren got famous spoofing Harry in musical YouTube vids).
So now that we've seen both dudes in their How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying posters, we gotta ask again: Who does it best?!

Daniel Radcliffe's Creepy Post-Harry Potter Flick: "Trying to Do Something Totally New"
Goodbye, Harry Potter—hello, creepy scary horror thriller!
Daniel Radcliffe will make his post-Potter movie debut in next year's The Woman In Black, a period flick in which he plays a lawyer who encounters the ghost of a not-so-happy woman out for revenge.
"He's so incredibly intelligent and incredibly bright," costar Janet McTeer told me last night at Palihouse in West Hollywood during a cocktail party for her new drama, Albert Nobbs. "He's trying to do something totally new to him—very, very, very talented."
But will Potter fans accept him as anything but the bespectacled wizard?
McTeer weighs in...
