Katie:
I was actually thinking about the scene in the movie where non-
Padfoot Sirius appears in the crystal ball, right before Trelawney 
wigs out and sounds like Linda Blair. But that's a fascinating 
point, and it adds doubly to the idea that Sirius will appear in 
Divination-type form again. Oh, and what was with the movie's Grim-
shaped cloud, by the way?

-Katie
who doesn't think the movie is the final word on what will be  
important in the series, because there's way too much vital stuff it 
leaves out (phew)
