there's bound to be something if they bring back the game in the film. He's Captain in this

Jade has certainly covered most of them!  I just lent my Book 6 to the 13-year-old who 
babysits my son (and who I used to babysit when I was a teenager and she was a baby) as, 
after taking her to the midnight opening of Movie 5, I FINALLY convinced her to read the 
books (she says she doesn't have "time" to read all 7, but doesn't want to wait 16 months 
for the next movie, so has conceded to read 6 and 7, anyway, which is a start!) so while 
I'm sure there are more, I can't pull them out of my mind at the moment.

However, if you click on this link, mugglenet has a section called "funny excerpts" and they 
have a good amount of them as well.  Once you get to the bottom of the page, you can 
also click on "page 2" to read more excerpts from Book 6.
