Have you seen the OotP Covers? Check them out at

Though I don't think we can deduce much plot from
these covers.
I reply:
I couldn't get that one to work, but I found one of
them (assuming there's a few possibles)on
www.mugglenet.com. It's only the U.S. cover and if no
one has an objection I think it's pretty lame.
Considering the serious pace the books have, I'm of
the opinion this cover leaves OotP looking like a
"kid's book". I guess they mean to do this so parent's
will buy it thinking 'oh, this one might be nicer'.
Speaking of the serious nature , I'm wondering how the
film will deal with the Dementors and the
Voldemort/Harry confrontation-not only fairly
frightening stuff (I'm scared of the Dementors just in
my head!)- but how can you make this sort of thing PG?
Surley they wouldn't make it M (or whatever the adult
rating is in Britain/U.S.).
Mugglenet also has a photolist of the cast for the
movie. I only have a problem with Penelope
Clearwater-unless they put her in a wig, and I hope
she has a nice clipped London accent. One other thing
*really* bothers me-WHERE IS TRELAWNEY!
Love Sparrow
