The black kid IS now Dean Thomas. Dean, whom Harry "sicced the snake on" in
COS, has gone from being a tall white kid with dark hair, to a short black
kid
in POA. Why? Who knows?!?! But look/listen closely at the "Boggart-in-
classroom" scene where the kid says something and Lupin responds something
like "That's right, Mr. Thomas". Guess they couldn't get the original Dean
back, so they changed actors.
NO NO NO NO NO! The original Dean is still there, a handsome light black
kid with a short afro, rather a dignified looking boy (with the most beautiful
posture - he's a good-looking boy). Dean's the one who responds to Remus's
question in the boggart scene, not that heavy dark black kid. That other kid
is a newbie and I want him OUTTA there!! The kid Harry "sicced the snake on"
in CoS was Justin Fitch-Fletchley (I can't spell his name, drat!), a
Hufflepuff, not Dean. Justin's white, Dean's black. Dean's also in the PoA scene
in the dorm when the boys are eating candy and making animal noises -- his
back is to the camera and he has a comic book (looks like) in his lap. He's
also the one who walks through the ghost on their way into Gryffindor Tower for
the first time in PoA (while Harry and Seamus are both saying the same lines
about the Fat Lady: "And she can't even sing!" etc.). Dean is also at the
same little table in Divination with Seamus, as I recall, while that new black
boy is at a table at the top/back level of the classroom. Dean's in all
those group scenes, but they give the lines to that creepy new kid. WHY????
Who's he related to that they decided to toss him into the mix? Does anyone
know? This is really bugging me (could you tell?? LOL!)
So the mystery remains -- who the heck is that black kid????
