LOL! I just wanted to mention, that when I was reading up on Daniel Radcliffe (a.k.a Harry Potter), I saw that he supports Autism. Apparently he's read up alot on it, and he has even participated in a video for Autistic children, showing different facial expressions.

I've read that too. I heard that one of the guys who works on the set has an autistic son and was talking about autism one day, and that was how Daniel Radcliffe became interested in it.

That's cool of him.

Apple has the very intense-looking trailer for the Goblet of Fire.

Even if I dislike Harry Potter in general, Daniel Radcliffe has my respect for the work that he's done. :D
