Hi everyone,

Yeah, I'm still doing the rounds in this shiny uniform.  Look: I've even put
my hair in a beehive, all special, like...


****ALL MOVIE DISCUSSIONS GO TO OUR NEW MOVIE LIST

All Saint's Day (that's the 1st November) is the official launch date for
our new offshoot list for discussion of the Harry Potter movie.  Depending
on your time zone, we're there or almost there, so please move ALL your
movie messages to:-

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPFGU-Movie

...or get there via the floo network from this lovely log-cabin fireplace
that John set up:

****A FEW POINTS TO CONSIDER

1. Tabouli was right to point out that the release dates for the first film
are staggered, with some countries not launching until well into 2002,
incidentally.  That was another factor that had to be considered in deciding
where to discuss it.  It seemed easier to avoid an entire list than to worry
about whether someone would inadvertently spoil in a post to the main list.

2. You may wish to join HPFGU-Movie ahead of time and set yourself to "Only
special announcements"  (same as webview/"no emails" but you get important
ADMIN messages as e-mails) until you have had a chance to see the film; or
to Digests, which you can attempt to leave unopened in your in- box.  If you
join and set yourself to receive individual emails, please bear in mind that
every message posted there will have the potential to spoil.

3. We're asking posters to the new movie list to continue using spoilers on
anything that might spoil the film for others, *up to and including the day
of 16th November*.  After 16th November, we'll assume that anyone taking
part in discussions on that list is discussing a film they have already seen
and that spoiler space is not, therefore, necessary.

4. The ADMIN files that apply to this list also apply on the movie list.

5. If you post movie-related stuff to OT Chatter or Announcements after 16th
November, please use spoiler space when appropriate.

"HPFGU-Movie is a non-smoking list.  Please extinguish all smoking
materials.  Yes sir, that does include your beard!"

Thanks!

Neil
