What to take out - GoF

OK as long as the special effects are good.  I think it is a unique 
twist on flashbacks, that's all.  I would hate to see it excised 
forever.

> I think the Pensieve could easily be condensed into *one* scene, 
with Karkaroff, Bagman, Crouch Jr., and Mrs. Lestrange all there 
together,with Barty Sr. interrogating them one after another.

condensed

> That whole subplot could probably go.

I'm not so sure that was one big question mark in the book.  After 
all Hagrid did not HAVE to make up at the end with Madame Maxime but 
he did.  This is one of those current imponderables and, as such, 
should, pro tem, be relegated to. OK compromise, a few mentions and 
one or two film shots.

It is for someone who can't get Lara Croft to do as she is told let 
alone jump very far but CAN get Harry Potter to move in a straight 
line! To find a game I can actually play without getting shot to 
death in three seconds and having to remember dozens of instructions 
for weapons, leaps and what handbag to hit them with is quite amazing.
