‘It’s really hard to say bye,’ one fan tells MTV News. By Terri Schwartz, with reporting by Brian Phares Daniel Radcliffe in “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2” Photo: Warner Bros. “Goodbye, childhood.” Those two words, which one fan left behind for director David Yates during an early screening of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2,” probably describe the sentiment felt by many Potterheads after they walked out of Thursday night’s midnight screenings. MTV News took to the streets to find out what viewers thought of the final installment of the epic film franchise, and the response was as overwhelmingly positive as the critics’ . “I feel like it was a worthy completion,” said one fan, who was clad in a Gryffindor sweatshirt. “From the start it just grabs you by the neck and takes you along for the ride, and really for the last film, you can’t ask for anything more.” His female friend agreed, saying, “It’s really hard to say bye,” before becoming choked up. The tears were shared by both the male and female fans interviewed after the screenings of “Deathly Hallows, Part 2.” It’s a sentiment that even the “Harry Potter” stars felt , though leading man Daniel Radcliffe was glad to hear the movie got the fans choked up as well. Favorite scenes in the film ranged from seeing Harry surrounded by all his loved ones to Neville Longbottom’s epic scene with a certain snake. One girl in Slytherin garb said she was glad that the Weasleys didn’t disappoint this time around, and particularly liked seeing Harry and his friends defending Hogwarts in the movie’s final act. “It was bittersweet to see it end because it encompassed so much of my life,” one female fan shared with MTV. The man she was with agreed. “It was everything you could want to cap off, in our lifetime, one of the greatest film sagas ever that I’ve experienced,” he said. “It’s not one of those things where I’m sad that it’s ending, because I know it’s not really going to end,” another fan said. “But at the same time I know it’s like closing the final chapter on my childhood.” Send us your video review of “Deathly Hallows, Part 2” and we just might use it on MTV News!

Couple have been married since 2004 and have 3-year-old twins together. By Kara Warner Jennifer Lopez And Marc Anthony Photo: Getty Images After seven years of what appeared to be wedded bliss, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have called it quits. “We have decided to end our marriage,” Lopez and Anthony revealed to People magazine via a joint statement. “This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters. “It is a painful time for all involved,” the statement continued, “and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time.” This news likely comes as a shock to their fans, as the seemingly happy couple were seen together frequently during the most recent season of “American Idol,” on which Lopez served as a judge and Anthony appeared in the audience several times and as a mentor to the contestants. Lopez and Anthony were married in June 2004 at Lopez’s Beverly Hills home. The wedding was a major surprise in the entertainment world, given the fact that J.Lo had ended her highly publicized relationship with Ben Affleck only 18 months before, and even more so for the family and friends who attended the casual ceremony, all of whom had been invited to attend under the guise of a summer party. The two Latin superstars dated briefly in the ’90s and remained friends in the years before their marriage. Anthony was previously married to former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres, while Lopez was wed to Ojani Noa and Cris Judd. Professionally, Anthony and Lopez have recorded a number of duets together and starred and produced the feature film, El Cantante. Lopez and Anthony have two children together, 3-year-old twins Max and Emme. Related Artists Jennifer Lopez Marc Anthony
