Possible Hints at 6 and 7 in the POA movie:

Okay, I've never contributed much, but I just saw the movie, and
I 
have to chime in.  Many many things stick out in my mind:

Hermione clings to Ron when they think Buckbeak is about to 
die; Harry turns and clings to Hermione.  Meanwhile, Ron just 
stares dumbly straight ahead.  Hmmm.  Shippers?  What say 
you?

Sirius says James thought he should stay a dog and while he 
didn't mind the tail, the fleas were murder (loved it).  Then it
is Sirius (not Dumbledore) who tells Harry those who love us never 
truly leave us.   Was this a foreshadowing?  Is there a way a 
Wizard can leave behind a representation of himself (a dog?) 
who will protect those he loved in life?

Also, it's pretty certain Lupin loved Lily.  She was kind to him.
 He was full of self loathing.  She saw through that to the man 
beneath.  If we accept that Snape had feelings for her, were 
there a whole line of men in love with Lily?  

Another thing:  Snape trying to protect the children from the 
werewolf.  Okay, he raised that cloak just like Bela Lugosi, but 
that's another argument.  My point was, he was trying to defend 
Harry et al from Lupin's werewolf form.   A foreshadowing?

Sirius point:  He tried to keep Lupin from changing by holding 
him and talking to him, putting his hand on Lupin's heart.  Then 
he puts his hand on Harry's heart at the end.  It is obvious to
me that Sirius represents heart and loyalty (the dog connection).  He 
sure doesn't represent common sense or reason; he is all 
emotion, most of it out of control and Gary Oldham played him 
wonderfully that way; he really did careen on the edge of 
madness.  He is like a particularly fierce and devoted dog, who   
*will* bite (just ask Snape) but who will die for those he loves.  I 
know JKR says those who die are truly dead, but I wonder about 
the possibility of a mysterious dog showing up in 6 or 7, perhaps 
only visible to Harry.

And what were the tatoos on his chest?  Did anyone figure them 
out and what they meant?
