Hi Valky Here! long time absentee list member.. 

I assume this reason for this post has to do with the JKR interview 
in which she, and I am not quoting just paraphrasing, said that the 
audience would be treated to interesting tidbits of clue in POA the 
movie even one which we would recognise as portends to books 6 7 and 
8. Yay!!!
Incidentally I enjoyed the film, mostly, I was impressed at the way 
Alfonso Cuaron very accurately developed the time turner in the 
movie it was particularly well done... The Knight Bus was soooo well 
translated as well loved it!! My only small disappointment is that, 
I felt the Shreiking Shack scene was rushed losing much of the 
feeling for it that I enjoyed when reading the book. 

Which brings me to my point, JKR it appears was less troubled by the 
lack of weight placed on the shrieking shack scene. Yet in the book 
this scene is.... well... HUGE!!  My suspicions are raised now that 
perhaps JKR has USED the Moony Wormtail Padfoot Prongs story in this 
scene, such a passionate and important part of the plot when Harry 
realises hes just connected with the only people hes ever known to 
have love his parents as much as himself. How could you not get 
swept away in the emotion of this chapter.... AND... what a perfect 
place to slip in the all important but seemingly inconsequential 
give away line. Well its a thought anyway. 
Best to you all

Elf note regarding this thread:

This thread tiptoes on the Main list/OT/Movie divide.
Would respondents please remember that main list posts must be canon based.
Responses to Valky's main point are thus fine on this list, but any comments purely on her incidental comments regarding the movie should go off-list or to Movie or OTC.

Many thanks
