> As for the "Hitler mustache" I have to disagree. Can't
remember if it was really mentioned on this list, and I don't read
the main list. No offence meant, but whoever brought this up has
never had a proper look at Hitler. Lupin has a mustache all right,
but it does *not* resemble the one Hitler had which mainly
consisted of a lot of bushy hair right under the nose and nothing
on the sides. I'm really not a fan of mustaches either, but look
again at Lupin's, it's different. Of course you don't have to like
it,
just note it's different. ;)

Seems to me, if it looks enough like a Hitler moustache that
people wonder if that's what it is -- "Lupin Hitler mustache
OR moustache" found a couple of hundred Google hits-- then
the filmmakers intended that effect or they just plain made a
mistake. Sorry.
My crystal ball is just as cloudy as everyone else's, but my
guess is that just like all her other "surprise" revelations, JKR
could prepare the ground well enough for ESE!Lupin that the
only shock readers receive will be that they didn't realize it
sooner. I'm thinking not too many books will be thrown across
the room.
OTOH, those of us who can't resist imagining detailed outcomes
may well be disappointed whatever JKR has in store --- in the
distant past, when dinosaurs ruled the earth and SW ROTJ had
just been released, I had a hard time adjusting to Luke being
Leia's brother because I had shipped them so long.
