WB Complaints; Replacing the Kids

[Penny Linsenmayer]

Hi --

I asked Shelaghcol offlist for the phone number she called, but if she'd like to post an email address and/or phone number here, I think that would be great.  It does appear that a fair number of us would like to register our dissatisfaction with the means of getting to the deleted scenes.  

As for replacing the kids, I think I can now see a reason why the kids may *have* to be replaced and that is the delay in publication of OOP.  If there continues to be 2 or more years in between books, Dan, Rupert & Emma will possibly be too old to effectively play the Trio in the last 2-3 movies.  Dan at 20 may still be fine to play 16 yr old Harry ... but he might not be.  It's hard to predict really.  So, I think it will depend on publication & filming schedules.  I'd love to see Dan keep the role (and Rupert & Emma as well) through all 7 movies, assuming there are 7 movies ... but it seems to me that it will depend more on outside factors than anyone might have expected.
