I'm glad Im not the only one confused with the rendering of Dobby the 
Huose-Elf on the big screen.
I must say, I'm a bit shocked at the appearance of Dobby.  He looks 
nothing like I imagined.  In fact, maybe the books never say, but I 
thought he was hairy, much like an upright-Opossom with actual legs.  
Or a cross between the face of a pug-dog with a pencil-like nose and 
the body of a rat. I dunno.   I'm still a bit stumped with the CoS 
Dobby... eek.
We should have a Dobby Drawing competition to see what we all thought 
he looked like!  (I know I've got crayons around here somewhere....)

Cheers,
Jenny
