new uniforms?

[Sara_ELL]

I'm not too fussed about the new uniforms after checking out 
thesnitch.co.uk photo. I can understand Cuaron wanting to put his 
own little mark on the film and the rationale for the new robes may 
very well be to distinguish the third year students from the more 
junior ones (important where Hogsmeade weekends are concerned, I 
suppose). As was pointed out above, in an earlier post, lots of 
schools alter their uniforms when students enter senior years - 
adding piping along the school jacket (or the robe, if you go to 
Hogwarts!) is fairly common where I hail from. The shorts and knee-
high school socks that might look acceptable on a 6 year old boy 
appear *very* unattractive on an 18-year old student (and I speak 
from personal experience!).

I personally won't be too annoyed at (what I perceive) to be little 
differences in the new film as the major difference (besides the 
major new cast member who, I admit, may take a little getting used 
to) is of course, the new director, himself. However, if the film-
makers tamper with the plot - I shall become *very* grumpy!
