Lines I missed in the movie that were in the book..
"How did you know it was me?" she (McGonagall asked)
"My dear Professor, I've never seen a cat sit so stiffly" (Dumbledore)
Would you care for a sherbert lemon? (Dumbledore) Also the scar as the map,
too
It's lucky it's dark. I haven't blushed so much since Madam Pomfrey told me
she liked my new earmuffs" (Dumbledore's reply to McGonagall's commentary on
how he was too noble to use the powers that Voldemort used).
"Oh are you a PREfect Percy? Said one of the twins with an air of great
surprise..You should have told us we had no idea (not exact quote), but this
banter really sets up Percy's character.
So we've just got to try on the hat! Ron whispered to Harry "I'll kill Fred,
he was going on about wrestling a troll." (much more fun than Hermione's
line about the ceiling in the great hall being betwitched to resemble the
night sky)
Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment Tweak (Dumbledore)
And
"Is he - a bit mad?" he (Harry) asked Percy uncertainly
"Mad" said Percy airily. "He's a genius. Best wizard in the world! But he is
a bit mad, yes. Potatoes, Harry?"
"Your father would have been proud. He was an excellent Quidditch player
himself" (McGonagall to Harry, we could have dispensed with the trophy)
I? I see myself holding a pair of thick, woollen socks (Dumbledore's response
to Harry's question about how Dumbledore would see himself in the mirror)
I did not like Hagrid's house either..it seemed too close to the castle
(although that might just be a problem with my visualization). It did help
that I had seen pictures before and knew it would be stone. It necessitated
not using Hermione's line (another good one) Hagrid you live in a wooden
house! (meaning that it would be a problem with dragons spouting flame)
I believe your friends Misters Fred and George Weasley were responsible for
trying to send you a lavatory seat. (Would have to reinstate the line from
Molly when putting Fred and George on the Hogwarts express) - Dumbledore
Interesting..so many whimsical lines relating to Dumbledore were cut
Ø McGonagall was wearing a jeweled circlet on her robes..it looked
Celtic..anyone know?
