A number of die-hard (or just plain hard) Daniel Radcliffe fans are pining for the upcoming installment of the Potter saga - especially since the producers announced this past week - that young Harry may be featured partially-nude in sexually-suggestive scenes with his nubile young co-star.
OMG!
When long-time childhood buddies hook up, doesn't that smack of incest a tad?
Bottom line, the suits are counting on young virile flesh to spark up the storyline and boost sales at the box office a smidgen next time out at a theatre near you.
Also, on another front, R.K. Rowlings has hinted that Dumbledore may be outed
So, expect a scintillating flashback or two from the old wizard, when he fondly recalls romantic days with a passionate male lover or two.
In a nutshell, the Potter "kids" are coming of age.
In fact, the studio boldly underscored that point when the sequel - Half-Blood Prince - was released.
In addition to a trek down teen-lover's lane, where a whole lot of chug-a-lugging and necking went down, there were a few subliminal messages that raised an eyebrow or two.
For example, when the boys were competing in an afternoon game on campus in a rough-and-tumble surge for supremacy on their airborn broomsticks - from a particular angle - a camera shot gave the impression that Harry's chief rival was sporting a roaring hard-on.
An adrenalin rush, of sorts, I guess!
Of course, before half-blood hit the silver screen, dialogue in previous films occasionally teased about the boys and their wands (naughty comments which usually whizzed over the naive heads of the kiddies with nary a thought).
But the sexual innuendos did not escape their parents in tow who sat up and took notice alright!
And, what about that one scene, where Harry had a nightmare about a nasty slithering snake?
I wonder what Freud would think of that!
Obviously, the studio is inclined to spice up the storyline, now that they're competing with racier bill-of-fare on cable and web TV.
Although Radcliffe pretty-much bared all in the stage prodeuction of Equus, frenzied fans can't seem to get enough of his toned physique, tight butt, and pretty face.
Ah, the sweet bird of youth!
