Alan Rickman Says Goodbye To The ‘Harry Potter’ Franchise
In the April 2011 issue of Empire Magazine, Alan Rickman wrote this open letter that reflected on his time spent with the ‘Harry Potter’ franchise, and giving thanks and praise to J. K. Rowling.
Alan Rickman is one classy guy, plus this letter is so much better if you read it with Rickman’s voice in your head.
Love this.
I’m Samit Sarkar, an Associate Editor at Destructoid.com. It’s pretty much the greatest job in the world, though the common misconception is that I simply get to play video games all day. It doesn’t quite work that way — but it’s still awesome. (If you want to check out all the posts I’ve written, head here.)
I’m a stickler for proper English — grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. — so if you see any mistakes in my writing, let me know. And if you see mistakes elsewhere, let me know, because I’ll want to point them out here and laugh (à la English Fail Blog). I might even put some on The Grammar Nazi, a Tumblr that I contribute to.
You can contact me at samit [dot] sarkar [at] gmail [dot] com for personal stuff, at samit [at] destructoid [dot] com for Destructoid-related inquiries, or on Twitter (see below). I’m also on Facebook.
Oh, in case you’re wondering, I’m 25 and I live in Long Island. But it’s so much easier to just say New York — I’m only an hour east of Manhattan.
Also, I am a HUGE fan of the 27-time World Champion New York Yankees.
