I pronounce it like loop-in *shrugs* probably completely wrong but once you start saying it like that it hard to change.

I was wondering. How to people prononunce Lupin?

Having a good education in French, I pronounced it that way, the same 
way as an animated cartoon character of the same name :-). Suddenly, 
though, it occurs to me that I'm probably not very representative. 

I dread the thought of a movie with a different pronounciation. I 
already was bullied out of pronouncing "Malfoy" in accordance with its 
French roots. 

Then again, for me Voldemort ends with a hard t.
