I just remembered, where did Oliver Wood go? Isn't this the last book 
that he is captain for the team? I was a bit disappointed not to see 
him in PoA. 

And Cho Chang, no Cho Chang.

[from Valerie]
Yeah, I know. I missed Wood, having just seen him again in COS this weekend. 
Love that Irish accent (or is it Scot?) They mentioned him briefly when Harry's 
in the hospital after falling off the broom "he's in the bathroom drowning 
himself" or something to that effect.
Guess they couldn't get him this go 'round?
I also missed Lee Jordan carrying on with his Gryffindor-biased, blasphemous 
Quidditch commentary, totally stressing out McGonagal. Loved that in the book!

I am also a bit surprised that Cho didn't figure in POA, especially since 
Cuaron seems to enjoy the teen sexual awakening theme. He spent his energy on 
Ron and Hermione in that respect, I guess. Plus Cho figures mostly during the 
Quidditch scenes, which he greatly abbreviated in the film.
