One thing I absolutely loved in PS/SS -- when the kids weren't in class, their "rumpling rate" matched their personalities. Hermione was always perfect, everything straight and buttoned. Ron had his shirt half out, his tie completely untied, his robe open. Harry was halfway between -- his tie crooked, but still tied, his shirt tucked in, his robe open. Their winter scarves did the same thing -- Hermione's nicely tied in front, Ron's open down the front, Harry's flipped neatly over one shoulder. I love these costumers.

Did anyone notice if they did the same thing in CoS? I'll have to watch for it next time I see the movie -- but that won't be until the DVD comes out. <sigh> I promised myself no more than 5 trips to the theatre. <grin> (OK, 3 of them were free -- I'd been collecting complementary tickets for the last year from friends and movie mishaps. <grin> The first time I saw LoTR:FoTR, the film broke 8 minutes before the end, and I got a free pass. Talk about disturbing. Just before the end of the last battle, we suddenly had advertising slides and Britney Spears singing. Ack! 20 minutes later, they got it running again and showed us the end of the movie, but really. <g> And the first time I saw HPCoS, they stopped the film before the end of the credits. We got passes again. I have a feeling a few theatres lost money on that first round of shows, until they figured out that the extra scene was there, AND that people knew about it and would complain if it wasn't shown.)

Enough blathering. <g>
