One last post before I hit the sack....

Long ago, I started a thread (that started many debates) about what 
scene the screenwriter of COS tried to cut before JKR intervened 
saying the seemingly "cutable" scene was important for the plot of 
the series(for more info on this, just watch the interview with JKR 
and Kloves on the COS DVD). Anyway, I don't want to invoke the wraith 
of those who want this to only be a book post (that's cool), but HBP 
suggests that my prediction (which many others heartily tossed out as 
well) that the Knockturn Alley sequence in COS was the infamous "cut 
scene."

Imagine trying to understand HBP without the basic information that 
we learn their (what Knockturn alley is, B & B's shop, that Draco has 
been there before, the Hand of Glory, etc.). It seems pretty likely 
that that is the scene in question; an important note for those (who 
come later or now) who might stumble across this interview and 
unravel it (hence it's application to a book-related discussion). Of 
course, it never hurts to keep thinking about these things, but just 
thought I would FYI this.
