I've long  thought Ron is a seer, so this was the first I picked up on as
possible  foreshadowing because it confirms my preconception.  I didn't  think
about your other possible interpretation - and since it's just too  terrible 
to
contemplate, I'm rejecting the idea for no good reason  ;-P  My heart stopped
for a second when I read that part in OotP where  Harry walks in on Molly with
the boggart, thinking that was The  Death.

I read somewhere that this was the  result of Jason Isaacs playing around in a
comic-book villain sort of way,  and the director liked it so they put it in. 
Did anybody else read  that?

Yes, I read that about Jason Issacs too.  I don't think JKR  said Chris 
Columbus (who did the first two films) did any foreshadowing, but she  did say it 
about Cuaron's film.  

I don't think Ron's the seer -- if  you read canon carefully, you'll see 
there are MANY MANY times that HARRY  predicts the future -- the most obvious 
being when he made up his answers in his  Divination exam, and what he predicted 
came true (Buckbeak alive and flying  away).  Ron's right when he jokes, but I 
don't see that as "seeing the  future" myself.
 
And Dumbledore's speeches in PoA are simply odd.  They don't  relate to the 
story, they don't make a lot of sense in some ways, and they're  out of 
character for the Dumbledore we know.  I didn't like them at all  (the two I didn't 
like being the "Light" one with the candle, although the  candle bit was cool, 
and the one about dreams, although the celestial ceiling  was gorgeous).  I 
did like his comment when they got back from the  time-turner incident -- that 
was cute and in character, IMO.
