Carol responds:
I think it's Zacharias Smith, played by a kid named Nick Shrim.

Valerie Flowe:
They apparently will be having the last 20 minutes in 3-D on IMAX.
With the brains flying around, prophecies shattering, wands blazing,
that's bound to be spectacular!

Carol responds:

I read somewhere that the brains scene is being cut. Not that it won't
be spectacular, anyway.

I just hope they leave in Snape being snarky to Umbridge and bowing
ironically as he leaves the room.

Dondee:

When I first heard that David Yates was directing OOtP I rented a 
few of his movie to get an idea of his directing style. I must say 
that I am impressed by his work and I am very excited that we have 
him involved in OOtP and HBP.

I was able to find and rent three of his movies: The Girl in the 
Cafe, The Young Visitors, and The Way We Live Now.

The Girl in the Cafe is set in modern times and tells the story of a 
very lonely man who meets a young woman by chance one day in a cafe 
and the results of that chance meeting. The story has a political 
aspect to it that is very emotionally compelling but the delicacy to 
the relationship between the two main characters that Yates creates -
 the long pauses - is really quite wonderful. I love a director who 
is not afraid of long pauses, and knows just how long to stretch 
them out for dramatic effect and give the actors the room to 
actually act.

The Young Visitors and The Way We Live Now are both period pieces 
and well staged and costumed. 'Visitors is more of a child-like 
humorous yet poinant story with a small cast. 'Now is a wickedly 
funny and dramatic mini-series and is based on the book by Anthony 
Trollope.

All three movies star well known British actors such as Bill Nighy, 
Kelly MacDonald, Jim Broadbent, Hugh Laurie, Cillian Murphy, and 
Shirley Henderson (who plays Moaning Myrtle).

All in all I think OOtP and HBP are in good hands. Yates can really 
tap into the humor and urgency and poinancy of the moment, which is 
exactly what is required for Harry's journey through these two 
stories.

Cheers, Dondee

Sorry, it took me so long to respond to this. You may have already

minnie_mouse:
Carol--I saw "Spiderman 3" today and they showed the OotP trailer! It
is really incredible on the big-screen! I can't wait to see it. What's
funny, though, a friend of mine from work saw Spidy over the week-end
at a different theater and they didn't show it there.

I'll be at Borders at midnight to get my copy, but was wondering if 
there will be big fiestas to honor the occasion?
I've only heard of the HP convention that will make special

My HP-obsessed friends and I are hoping that our local IMAX will show 
OotP, so that we can go to the showing, then out to dinner after, to

Regarding trailers being shown...

Sometimes a theater will get 3 trailers for a good movie coming out  
(in this case, OoTP) and they will get 8 or so copies of a movie that  
it's supposed to air in front of.

So they don't have enough copies of the trailer to put in front of  
every movie.

It's a good idea to ask the ticket sales person or the manager "is  
that the theater with the OoTP trailer?"

They should know the answer, because they know which trailers are  
important to people.

I used to manage a movie theater, that's how I know this sort of thing.

Best wishes,
Jodi in VA

This is interesting information Jodi. Thanks. I remember when GOF was 
coming out. They said it would show before some kid's movie (sorry 
cannot remember which one) so when my son's said they might like to 
see this certain film (which I thought looked silly), I went with 
them hoping to see it. Alas, it didn't play and yes the movie was 
silly. So afterward, I asked and the guy at the information booth 
(this was an AMC Mega-theater by the way) said that they get trailers 
in and it was the manager's discretion which ones to put it with but 
he thought they had put it with that particular film. So now that I 
know they only get so many copies it makes sense that we didn't get 
to see it as there were about 30 seperate screening rooms in this 
theater. So maybe it was in one of the other two showing that silly 
movie - a friend of mine took her kids two days earlier than I did 
and saw the trailer and her kids are not Harry fans (neither is she) 
but she was who I had heard it from so I was willing to go to the 
movie I didn't really want to see in hopes of the trailer.

I apologize for a replying to a post over a year old, but this is the

At first glance she seems a bit too glamorous for Tonks to me... 
I saw Tonks as more of a pixie-ish, Audrey Tautou type.  But I'll
reserve judgement until I see the film...  So much depends on how
she plays her...  Who could have guessed that Shirley Henderson
would be so delightful (IMHO) as Myrtle?

Np. Please spread the word. It grows and becomes useful with every
contribution and every person who knows about it. Let friends and family
know about it as well as your local bookstores, libraries, schools, and city
chamber of commerce's so they can get ideas, host their own event and post
about it. ;)

This is our last chance to have a full weekend of Potter like this.

I agree...haven't seen any 'pink spikey hair pix' of her yet. I hope 
they have her changing hairstyles with every scene, as in the books. As 
opposed to having the straight purple hair the whole time. I'm anxious 
to see her interpretation of Tonks, as well.

My hubby and I saw Spidey its first night out and saw the OotP  trailer, 
which was FABULOUS!  Our daughter and son-in-law saw Spidey in a  different 
theater in our area and the OotP trailer was not shown.  So I  guess it depends on 
the theater whether they show it or not (how incredibly  stupid to not show a 
trailer for one of the summer blockbusters!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Thanks for sharing the new spots!
I liked the one with Lucius...creepy!
And the funny one with Snape/Umbridge.

I just saw the "If Voldemort is building up an army, then I want to 
fight"
one tonight during American Idol. First time I've seen it on TV...that 
means its getting closer. Yay!
That spot makes me dizzy with all the running around and everything 
blowing up! I hadn't thought of OotP as a 'high adventure' kind of 
film, like GOF was, but it looks as though the director/CG folks are 
really capitalizing on the action that there is. I hope that doesn't 
overpower the inner angst and turmoil of Harry, which really shapes 
this book, and gives Harry more dimension.

>>I hope that doesn't 
overpower the inner angst and turmoil of  Harry, which really shapes 
this book, and gives Harry more  dimension.
Valerie<<

I think the angst is the main thing in this film, from things I've  read.  
Before they started, Dan and the director had several weeks of  sessions with a 
grief therapist to help Dan get a handle on how Harry feels,  having witnessed 
Cedric's death.  I've seen a photo of Remus holding Harry  as Harry tries to 
get to the veil to bring Sirius back, and the anguish on Dan's  face is 
astounding.  Dan has said that he was ready to be pushed, and that  David Yates 
pushed  him hard - and that may be why they asked Yates to do  the next film, as 
well.  From everything I've seen, Harry and Dan have both  grown up and Dan's 
showing a tremendous range of emotion in the scenes I've seen  so far.  Can't 
WAIT to see the film!!!

  Anyhow, question?  Has anyone noticed in one of the older clips, and I think this was discussed before, that Cho is standing with Umbridge and Filch and whomever else?  I don't know if they cast a Marietta as the snitch or not, but judging by what someone who saw the movie here in Chicago said, the Cho story didn't make sense or something.  So my question, or point (because I do have one lol) is do you guys think they are going to make Cho the snitch as a way to get back at Harry for...I don't know, jealousy or not thinking Hermione is ugly?LOL  I hope not because that would devastate me.  I hope it's a dream sequence because he did dream about her once in the book before something horrible happen...i think the Mr. Weasley/Naigini thing.

I have no idea if it has anything to do with
jealousy, but it's been confirmed that in the
movies Cho is the snitch.

Julie:
It is Cho who is the snitch, but from what I've heard she
reveals the information by "accident." I assume the movie
people decided to use Cho because of time constraints--to 
condense the plot and avoid adding another subplot with
a character (Marietta) who would have to be introduced
and her betrayal of the DA explained, not to mention 
going into the whole hex on the parchment by Hermione
and resulting purple pustules on Marietta's face, etc.

Even without the several minutes of movie time saved 
by deleting this stuff, it could be that the writer or
director wasn't that comfortable showing Hermione's
brand (pun intended) of revenge against Marietta. The 
movies tend to draw the bad guys and the good guys in a
more black and white style than the books (again due to
time constraints and because the movie medium focuses more
on showing rather than telling--or reflection--especially
for action-oriented movies such as HP). Thus it's more 
straight-forward to leave it to the bad guys to use such
vengeful forms of punishment rather than having one of the
heroes do so and invite potential discomfort with said hero's
tactics by some fans (especially if there is to be no follow
up later and this scene is it).

Just a thought.

Julie, figuring time constraints still top all when it
comes to what is and isn't in the movies.

Well, it kind of makes sense since that IS the end of Cho and Harry and Cho
is constantly defending the little snitch. I can think of worse character
smooshings.

Looking at some of the stills on leaky cauldron, especially those stickers
from the Italian site, I am really liking the "gritty" look.

Yep, my son's birthday! How cool is that? When I told him he 
said, "I'll be at camp. Please promise you won't go see it before I 
come home...."

Sometimes I just hate motherly love!!!!

On the other hand, I'm trying to convince the family to take the family 
trip to an amusement park the weekend DH comes out. I'll read the whole 
way there, they can go into Hershey Park and I can read in peace in the 
hotel room. And no one will complain that I haven't cooked a meal all 
weekend.

It's too bad they couldn't find it in their hearts to make it 3 hours.  Lord

to refresh my memory before I can carve my comments in stone, but I agree

FANTASTIC! But I also heard that the producers for "Pirates 3" were 
disappointed because, even they opened in the U.S. on Thursday, that 
was not calculated into their 'Opening Weekend"  earnings. So Spiderman 
still has them beat out. But no matter...the earlier the better for 
HP5, as far as I'm concerned!!!
I'm still regularly checking the IMAX website in  Washington DC to see 
if they are going to play the movie there. I saw GOF there and it was 
phenomenal! I called IMAX and they said they were 'in negotiations' 
with Warner Bros. to show it. I'll cross my fingers!
Soon, soon, soon, ya'll!!!

Yeah, That motherly love can be a pain sometimes :-) - We will be with my
eldest at her college new student orientation on the 10th-11th - I told her
that we would have to go see it with 'normal people' on one of the other
days - this is the first time that we have not seen a Harry Potter movie on
it's opening day!
