Cho on screen

[sophiamcl <sophiamcl@hotmail.com>]

There have been wispy rumours of Cho casting and nothing that comes even 
close to a confirmation. She is not essential to the main plot in any way, not 
even in GoF (let's face it). Which is not to say that she may important further 
on in the story, but would you say there's a chance that she gets the same 
treatment at Peaves? It would be a great shame, but just how essential is 
she? 
I wouldn't want her out myself--Harry's crush on her is a part of his growing 
up, and it adds a poignancy to Harry's interaction with Cedric in the 
tournament, but considering---ah, what am I talking about! Of course she'll 
be in the movies. There can be NO GoF without the Yule Ball--it's unthinkable, 
right? And the Yule Ball definitely calls for Cho, right? Yeah. She's in--she's 
gotta be.
