[HPFGU-Movie] Re: characters and actors part 2

[Tandy, Heidi]

My blackberry only allows a certain amount of characters in a post, so the
other was unexpectedly truncated...
I want them to keep the same cast for as many films as possible, not just
because I think the casting was spot on but because I think they all are
growing together in many ways - the filming experience is a lot like
Hogwarts - and I think that will show in later films in a way that replacing
any of the actors would damage. I did like the forebidden forrest scene- the
bit before, at Hagrid's hut- I thought the 4 of them look so good together-
a perfect team! Is it too much to ask for Draco to be a part of it later on?
Yeah, thought so. : {
What was never explained was why Draco followed them there- or had he been
in the library when they were talking and overheard? Could have been more
clear- otherwise I will be forced to presume he's stalking Harry. :: winks
at various listies::

One terrifying thought did cross my mind- what if they did the sorting in
birth date order? It would give credence to that misery-inducing 1979
argument for Hermione's birthday as she was sorted first. But there can't be
that many students younger than Harry. So maybe not. 

Question: why was Filch among the slytherins at the game? We know he wasn't
in any house, don't we?

And I thought that they presented a convincing showing of how badly the
Dursleys treated Harry, even in the abbreviated time frame. 
And Alex, I want to be on the rewrite team for the script! I truly think
that the line after Harry read the bit from the DP {why did it go to Ron
anyway?} shouldve been Ron asking, "My oldest brother is a curse breaker for
Gringotts-should I ask him?

One last note before I send this and realize that I forgot something- we
took my 27 month old to see it last night. He loved it and cannot stop
talking about it. It was his first movie and especially in the quidditch
scenes, he was so worried about "Haddy Podder"!
