I emphatically don't.  I'm glad that JKR seems to be getting a lot 
more input than is usually accorded to the original author, but the 
movie will be Chris Columbus's vision, along with those of his 
casting director/set designer/etc., not hers.  To me, canon will 
always be whatever's between the covers of the books and nothing else.

That doesn't stop Tom Felton from being the =perfect= Draco, 
however...!  I didn't actually scream when I saw him in the trailer, 
a la Cassie, but I laughed hysterically and said "Oh my God, THAT'S 
DRACO!!"

The latter is just Harry's naivete speaking.  Crabbe and Goyle 
obviously have dates for the Ball--each other.  ;-)
