OK,  there's that bathtub 
bit with Harry and Myrtle which was pretty funny, but  I'd think I'd 
prefer it cut (And before anyone starts asking about  it--there is NO 
info whatsoever on this either way): there are so many  other films 
with all kinds of nudity, whether implied or actual,  gratuitous or 
otherwise, whether to make a point or be humourous or  whatever. I'd 
just prefer Harry-world to be a safe zone for just a little  while 
longer--it's rather restful. Am I making any sense at all? Am I  
making a mountain out of a mole-hill? Well, what else are forums like  
these for? :-)

I've been looking forward to that scene and the second task ever  since I 
read the book.  I'd LOVE to see a swimming pool-sized bathtub with  lots of 
colorful foam and see somebody try to swim in it - what a concept,  LOL!  
Seriously, though, these are NOT little kids' books.  In order  to keep the movie 
franchise going, they are going to have to draw the teen and  adult audience, 
because the books are so dark, the parents of young kids won't  bring them (which 
is probably wise, I suppose).  I hope they keep the  movies as dark and mature 
as the books are.  A little "skin" isn't a  bad thing, and if they keep it the 
way the book is, it will be fine (well, the  bathtub scene does leave you 
wondering how much Myrtle saw, but it doesn't TELL  you how much she saw!  heehee 
 And that's part of the fun of it,  keeping the reader guessing and poor 
Harry worried. . .)
