Book four was and still is my absolute favorite (yes, even over books five and six) and I CAN'T WAIT to go see the movie.

It will be interesting to see what kind of "look" this movie will have. It was a bit shocking to see the differences between the first two and the third because of the different directors. But the trailers for FOUR look pretty good.

no movie theaters in my neck of the woods!

Well,

November 18th is so the Holiday traffic will see the movie.

If I were to guess, it will be out for purchase at the end of April or sometime

in May to utilize summer sales possibilities.

This would mean it should come to premium cable by, say, early August.

I heard that all the references to S.P.E.W. were removed.

I can understand that, but I'd still like them in there.

Then again, the last movie SHOULD have at least

mentioned Cedric Diggory by name.

For those who saw the movie but not the books,

when Harry fell and his broom got smashed,

The Hufflepuff Seeker caught the Snitch,

ending the match.

The other Seeker was Cedric Diggory,

and he wanted to disqualify the catch due

to the reason,

but the referee let it stand as a Hufflepuff win.

The ref was wrong.

According to "Quidditch Through the Ages",

no non-player is allowed to interfere with

the play on the field. But this established

that Cedric Diggory had some skills

(he caught the Snitch in a lightning storm)

and honour

(he didn't want to win if it wasn't "fair".)

It's understandable and expected in the

series, and moreso in the movies,

that the action focuses on

Gryffindor versus Slytherin,

and skips Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw

to a degree. (They get a raw deal, really.)

Each House has members chosen because

of the presence of certain qualities.

In the case of Gryffindor, it's bravery,

with Slytherin, it's cunning and ambition,

with Ravenclaw, it's intelligence,

with Hufflepuff, it's talent and persistence.

Contrary to what some people thought

about Hufflepuff before Book 4,

Hufflepuff isn't just where the slow-wits

go. If you remember Book 1,

Harry was actually evaluated for

all four Houses, and could have

ended in Hufflepuff instead of

Gryffindor or Slytherin.

(It would not have been the

BEST fit, but it would have

worked.)

The Head of Ravenclaw House

is Professor Flitwick (Charms).

The Head of Hufflepuff House

is Professor Sprout (Plants/Botany).

Neither of them seems to lack

skills-Professor Sprout seems to

be, if anything, possibly the best

Hogwarts TEACHER in terms of

getting the most from her

students (Neville EXCELS at

Sprout's classes.)
