Daniel Radcliffe "Miffed" About Harry Potter's Deathly Oscar Curse

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, Daniel Radcliffe Courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures

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...

Movie Review: The Woman in Black Is Plenty Spooky, but Barely Twisty

Daniel Radcliffe, Woman in Black Nick Wall/Alliance Films

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?!

Believe it or not, as awards seasons go for Harry Potter movies, this one's been pretty kind.

Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is on the Oscars' short lists for makeup and visual effects, it's in the game for Alexandre Desplat's score, and, you never know what miracles Tuesday morning's nominations will bring.

But wait, that's not all…

More from The Awful Truth

There are officially fewer than 303 days left until Breaking Dawn Part 2 hits theaters.

And while that may be a little too early to start the countdown, we know you diehard Twi-hards are as psyched as we are to see Kristen Stewart in full-on vampire glory. Oh, and the rest of the Forks gang too, duh.

So are the stars of the flick already feeling the pressure of the final installment?

Morning Mail! Where's the Love for Breaking Dawn at the 2012 People's Choice Awards?!

More from The Awful Truth

Dear Ted:  
The People's Choice Awards crept up on me this year, and I'm very surprised to see Breaking Dawn excluded from all categories. It's not even mentioned once! What happened here? Now I know the critics pretty much raked it over the coals, but the fan response was pretty huge! Making it one of the biggest movies of the year! Personally, I loved it, so I'm a little hurt to see it snubbed.
Very Baffled

Dear No Break for Breaking Dawn:
We were surprised, too, since Rob, Kris and the rest of the Twi-crew snagged four awards in 2011, but Harry Potter seems all the rage for 2012. But remember, part two of H.P. is stealing the spotlight, and we've still got a whole ‘nother half of Breaking Dawn to get excited for. Me thinks Breaking Dawn will feel the love, just perhaps in 2013. Better luck at the Teen Choice Awards!

Dear Ted:  
I was wondering about paparazzi and the relationship with certain stars. I was recently wondering about Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes and how I have only seen Eva in about three movies but yet the paparazzi know where she is all the time. Is she like a certain Blake Lively and plans for these outings, or how do the paparazzi always know where certain stars are? Makes it seem less real of a relationship with Ryan, but I am sure it is real, but she is sure getting something out of it.

Morning Mail! Is Taylor Swift's Latest Performance Being Trashed Before It's Even Begun?

More from The Awful Truth

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?

Happy New Year and welcome to 2012, you awful gals and guys! We hope you didn't celebrate too hard last night, but if you're feeling the sting of one champagne glass too many, hopefully another round of the 99 reasons we still love Hollywood will perk you up.

Because even though we're in the end of times (or so say the Mayans) there's still so many reasons to be thankful. Like the fact that we can still sing along with The Muppets or that bride-to-be Britney Spears is back and better than ever.

And as we near the end of the list, here are nine more reasons we especially adore Tinseltown:

It's Not Harry Potter's Fault: Lousy Year for the Movies

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, Daniel Radcliffe Courtesy of Warner Bros. Pictures

There was only so much magic in the wizard.

While Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows—Part 2 became the world's third-biggest grossing movie of all time, Hollywood suffered one of its worst box-office years in years.

And it's easy to see why: People just didn't go to the movies.

Could Kristen Wiig be planning a trip to the Oscars?

The funnylady's Bridesmaids was named one of the best pictures of the year by the American Film Institute, which released its annual Top 10 list of films and TV today. Other films that made the cut include The Help and The Descendants, which also nabbed today's L.A. Critics top nod!

But what about Harry Potter?!
