He’s totally busting down doors. You know he is.


Harry Potter fans were in a bit of a tizzie yesterday because an online rumor was going around that Emma Hermione Watson’s acting career was, quote, “dormant”, and basically over. But… because you can’t always trust the internet, it turns out that’s not exactly the case.

I can get that some people would be upset by this, but honestly, what’s the down side? Delicious pancakes? I’m good with that.
