“Noah!” Randal Kleiser’s voice cut through the theater lobby as he strode over, his arms open wide. He pulled me into a tight, earnest hug. “It’s so good to see you!” Just behind him, Julie offered a small, familiar smile and a gentle wave. These last few days, Julie and I had been inseparable on our shared promotional tour, so her presence was no surprise. Randal, however, was a different story. As the director, he hadn’t been part of the press circuit; this wasn’t an era where…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

It’s almost certain that Scarlett went into labor a little early. What do you guys think? Will it be a boy, or a girl who succeeds Harry Potter and the Joker? Within minutes, the thread began filling up with reactions. u/HufflepuffLeftBehind:Imagine being born and your dad is Troy Armitage. No pressure, kid. Just…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
- Jessica bounced lightly on the balls of her feet as she stood outside the movie hall, barely able to contain her excitement. The unmistakable buttery scent of popcorn drifted in the waiting area, prompting more than one person to buy the snack. Even Jessica couldn’t help herself and had bought a large tub along with a big glass of Coke. “Who would’ve thought this film would draw such a crowd?” her best friend Annie said, glancing around at the sea of people waiting beside them. Jessica…

- I peeked into the dining room a little carefully, hoping to spot a certain someone. Inside, I wasn't sure whether I wanted her to be there or not. I wanted her there because she was a beautiful girl who had just taken my virginity, and I didn't want her there because the whole thing felt a little awkward. Not to mention, I knew she'd want money. Something I hadn't planned properly in the heat of the moment when I called her last night. I walked forward wearing a skin-tight T-shirt and jeans, my hands…

- “I don’t understand why they even have an intermission during a Broadway show,” Austin muttered impatiently, tapping his foot against the floor as they stood in line at the snack counter. The lobby was filled with chatter of other theater-goers, though unlike the movies, the crowd seemed a little more sophisticated. “If there were no intermission, we wouldn’t be here waiting for snacks. The show’s barely two hours long. Most movies are longer than that. They could easily finish it in one go if…

- “I want to make a feature-length film for this year’s assignment,” I said, keeping my voice steady as I sat across from my film teacher. “I’ve got my own camera and sound equipment that I brought with me to Harvard, so that part shouldn’t be a problem.” Mr. Gardner leaned back in his chair and inclined his head, considering me over the rim of his glasses. “Usually, students go for the two short films. Ever since this class started, only one student tried making a thirty-minute film…

- The music started with the iconic Hedwig’s theme before melding into something original, created exclusively for the last Harry Potter movie. It was grand in scale, which was exactly what was needed for the epic finale of one of the greatest film series in the history of movies. Till this day, I am baffled by the fact that I never realized my love for music in my past life. Even when I participated in X Factor, I was eliminated before it could go anywhere. For my voice, the only difference I had…

- Chloe took a sip from the teacup, which, honestly, wasn’t that bad. She hadn’t realized when she had gotten so used to the high-class housewife routine, but she had, and now she couldn’t go back to her normal life. This included occasional luncheons or high tea with her group of friends. “The tea is lovely, Marie,” Chloe said sincerely to the host. “Thank you, Chloe,” Marie smiled back. “Try some of my lemon tart as well. I baked it myself.” “Yes, yes, your cooking is amazing,…

- May 2009, New York City, USA “Ladies and gentlemen, Troy Armitage!” I walked out through the studio doors with a bright smile on my face. The in-house band sat to my left, just by the edge of the stage. Beyond them was the sea of faces that made up my audience for the night. The moment my name was announced, the crowd erupted into thunderous applause that echoed across the studio. I waved as I stepped to the center of the stage. “Thank you,” I said, though my voice was almost lost beneath…

- “So this is your new home?” Julie asked thoughtfully and looked around the living room. The place still looked a little too empty without any of my personal stuff put in. It didn’t make sense to decorate the place when I’ll be going away soon. “Yup,” I said with a nod. “Thanks for agreeing to stay here with me.” “That’s what friends are for, aren’t they?” she shot back playfully. She stepped closer, slipped her arms around my neck, and pressed her body against mine. “And…
