I don't suppose they'll probably have any Quidditch.  They didn't in PoA and that book wasn't nearly as long.  They should be showing the twins leaving Hogwarts (since they're showing the firework prank), and the twins will have to accio the brooms to them (of course the brooms were in Umbridges office because of the Quidditch banning).  They don't have to show where the brooms are coming from, though.  But with no quidditch, we wouldn't get to see Ron as Keeper, or the big brawl with Harry, George, and Draco which got Harry, George, and Fred banned from Quidditch.

Nope, I don't see there being any Quidditch this movie either, even though I would love to see those two pummel Malfoy. LOL!

  I'm sorry if this has been discussed already, I'm still fairly new to 
  the list.  But for those of us who have already read OotP, what do you 
  guys think they will for sure take out?  I know some of us were excited 
  about hearing that the fireworks were going to be in the movie.  I 
  personally was kind of disappointed to hear that Grawp was going to be 
  in it.  Having read HBP I didn't see the significance with having 
  scenes with him.  I guess they do have to account for Hagrid's bruises 
  and he does save the kids from the centuners (sp?), sorry I don't have 
  my book with me at work to spell that correctly.  But I think they 
  wouldn't have any trouble getting around it.  The reason I bring this 
  up is because Yates seem very apologetic about what's going to be taken 
  out, so it makes me think some really good things will be gone.  Plus 
  it's the longest book yet for HP, so I wonder how far they'll take it.  
  And I remember Newell said something like they broke GoF down to only 
  scenes directly related to Harry, or something like that.  Anyway, any 
  thoughts?
