Now, when I saw that last scene, where all the kids are gathering 
around 
Hagrid, and everybody's applauding, the first thing I thought was, "Uh, 
oh...it's for sure...Hagrid's gonna bite the big one in book five."  My 
bets 
were on Dumbledore, but now I've changed my mind.

Did anybody else think like this or is it just me?

"Oh, oh! Yes, me too!  Me too!"

Gail, that was my first thought at that scene, because I couldn't understand why Hagrid was getting such a long, drawn-out standing ovation.  

There's also a video interview with Robbie Coltrane (or is it Coltraine?) somewhere on the WB site that has him talking about being signed up for 5 movies, or something like that.  Does anyone know where that interview is, because I can't seem to find it.

On the standing ovation again...I think Hagrid is a very lovable character for children, and the fact that he was released from Azkaban, came back to Hogwarts and is now cleared of charges was a huge point Kloves/Columbus wanted to make.  Big, loveable furry Hagrid is back, kiddies!  Of course, Gail and I are assuming that kiddies are the target audience (in which case, WB needs to do a little more market research and perhaps consult us...).

"Professor, can you show me that blocking thing again?"

Lockhart cuffed Harry merrily on the shoulder.  "Just do what I did, Harry!"

"What, drop my wand?"
