James Potter

[JennyGirl9]

Hi all,
Im a Newbie to the list and I hope that the question I am about to 
pose has not been pondered before.  I did not notice in the FAQ.

Anyhow, how to the topic --
In the movie, when Hermione is showing Harry how he cant possibly be 
bad at Quidditch since its in his blood, we see a plaque with "JAMES 
POTTER - Seeker" on it.  And, unless I am mistaken (i have seen the 
movie more times than I would like to admit!), the plaque says 
GRYFFINDOR at the top.  From reading the books, especially PoA, I
have 
come to the conclusion that James was not in Gryffindor, but 
was actually a Slytherin.  

Anyone else have thoughts on this?
(I hope I posted this question to the correct list!)
Cheers!
Jenny
