Potioncat:
So you've seen or read the interview? That's what I'm looking for. I 
rcall seeing a quick question, a quick "That's fandom" and nothing more.


I remember when the Cuaron interview came out and this list came up 
with all sorts of ideas about the Hogwarts graveyard. I suspected 
that "the graveyard" was the "GoF graveyard" but that Cuaron wasn't 
that big a HP fan to realize that.

Potioncat:
She goes to an interview or a DVD promotion and makes nice conversation 
on the spot. And we inspect every nuance. So that most of us have 
actual sections memorized while she has gone on with her life and 
forgotten the details.
