[HPFGU-Movie] streaking Draco/second task

--  there are some fans (I've read somewhere on some message board, can't 
think  right now which one, sorry) who think Harry is a shrimp, skinny, not  
well-developed, because he was half-starved as a little boy (and because of  
Ron's line in Divination, where he says "a midget in glasses was born" meaning  
Harry).  I've read some posts expressing concern about how big Dan  Radcliffe 
is, that he doesn't look like "poor little Harry."  Yet we read,  repeatedly, 
how well Hogwarts feeds the students.  Dan Radcliffe has  developed quite a set 
of muscles from his gymnastics training or whatever else  he's doing for his 
stunt training.  I don't know if Quidditch is physical  enough to develop the 
upper body strength in Harry that shows on Dan, but it  will be interesting to 
see if they do decide to use a body double for Dan,  if they go with someone as 
muscular as he is, or as spindly as some people think  Harry should be.  I 
personally think they'll let Dan's muscles show (if  only to keep his teen fan 
base excited, heehee)

It's funny because in COS, Harry looked so tall (I'm thinking of the Burrow 
scene in the beginning). I suppose that's because he'd made a big jump from 
little Harry in SS, to Harry-reaching-puberty, with the deeper voice.
Still, when I see him in interviews and POA he looks so much shorter than Ron 
and Malfoy, so that makes me think of him as still somewhat small/frail for his 
age. 
Wouldn't mind seeing those muscles he's been working on, though, in the 
prefects bath scene! :-P
