In honor of the new Harry Potter book coming out this weekend, as well as the latest Harry Potter movie in theaters, here are four great bird’s eye views of Harry Potter movie set locations:

Two Night Buses from Prisoner of Azkaban.

The Walkway set used in Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix.

Hagrid’s Hut, with the Pumpkin Patch to the side.
The North View is the only one without scaffolding.

With all the frenzy regarding Paris Hilton phoning into to her court hearing today from home, it seemed appropriate to post a bird’s eye view of her Hollywood Hills home.

Update: Yes, we know she’s going to the courthouse, but we don’t care. So don’t expect Paris Hilton news updates from us.

Here’s a link to a related news story with an aerial view of her home this morning with the paparazzi outside.

This is the Ranch from NBC’s The Biggest Loser.

This is the mansion from HBO’s hit series Entourage. Season 4 begins on April 8th! I hope Arie can make good with Vince and the boys.

This is the Promises Treatment Center in Malibu, CA where Britney Spears recently completed a month of rehab.

Marineland in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA was a major “Sea World” type attraction, until it was bought by the owners of Sea World in 1986, and shut down. It was the original home of the first “Shamu.” In its decaying state it has been film location for various mivies including Charlies Angels, Conair, and FaceOff.
