Sorting Order, etc.

I think I have figured out why the childred  were sorted in that 
order in the movie, as it's obviously not alphabetically or by 
birthday (as there so many after Harry)

Could it be that the list McGonagall has is the order of those who 
wrote back accepting their admission.

Hermione is first and I can definitely see her insisting that her 
parents send the answer back the very day she got it .

Ron's mum, since she's done this so often before, didn't rush to 
reply.

Of course Harry never sent a written answer but Hagrid "hand 
carried" his answer back.

The other parents were even slower than the Weasley's. Was 
Ron pestering Molly to answer promptly?

I've seen the movie once so far and am going again tonight. The 
friend I went with leaned over to me early on and said, "You are 
so Hermione!"  And she does have a point. I read as much as 
she does and all sorts of trivia sticks in my mind.

Did anyone else notice that Firenze was pronounced differently 
in the movie (as compared to the Jim Dale CDs) Dale 
pronounces the final e but the movie left it out.
