Hey, all.

I went to see PoA for the third time and saw a couple of things I 
hadn't seen, but maybe some of you have.

First, some people have said Harry's scar is in the wrong place at 
certain times.  I watched this time and I think I know why.  Cuaron 
does these "fly through" moves with the camera, like in the boggart 
scene (and the clock, several times).  If you notice, he moves the 
camera through the wardrobe, more than once, and we get a "flipped" 
view.  Does that make sense? I'm not good at movie production 
lingo.  Anyway, suffice it to say the scar is in the right place, 
we're just looking at it from the opposite angle.

Second, in the time turner scene, when Harry produces the patronus, 
you can see the head of the stag pulsing about three times out of 
the end of Harry's wand.  I hadn't noticed it before and it was cool 
to see it.  

Another observation:  Ron just doesn't seem to have a really 
important part in the movie.  Maybe it's just me, but it seems that 
throughout most of the movie, he's comic relief.  I guess I just 
want more for him.  It should be interesting to see how he plays 
jealous/hurt!Ron for GoF.  I hope his part is much meatier!  

Thanks for listening....hmmm, maybe I should go ONE MORE TIME....

Alora ;)
