For those wondering whether or not Ginny will be wearing those pads for the uniform, the costume designer said at the start that they were knew uniforms for the SEEKERS and KEEPERS, and then the vid pans to show a costume for Dan and for Rupert.

The pads concept wouldn’t be so bad, if they’d thought of it from the beginning. That helmet….UHG!!! Atrocious.

Ginny does play Seeker in the final game though, so it’s still possible that she’ll have to wear the new additions.

And I just realized the book Harry’s holding is ‘Advanced Potion Making’ that belonged to the Half-Blood Prince.

You know the students and parents must be out of pocket forking out money for changes in school uniform all the time. This is the third Quidditch kit in six years at Hogwarts. It is meant to be a school team not a commercial team, oh wait Warner Bros can probably make some money out of this? Once you allow one new director to mess about with things you allow any idiot.

Dumb Question Alert … when was Harry talking to Arthur in his shed? I can’t remember that – was it just too fast for my poor eyes and he was talking to DD before arriving at the Burrow?

Heres my take on the mr weasly/shed thing:

They built the shed so Harry and DD could talk, and so they want to get as much out of it as possible, and so Harry will confront Arthur about Draco in the shed, instead of at the train station.

@Kezzabear&djm19- That’s a very good take! And yeah they never go inside the shed in the books but it’s mentioned and Arthur made it obvious he keeps his electronics stash in it, and if you look at it closely in the sneak peek you can see it’s a whole bunch of electronic stuff.

I really hope the “Quidditch-is-back” means we’re actually getting the “Weasley Is Our King” storyline, cause other wise, I can’t see why Quidditch should be back at all, even the H/G storyline can be done without Quidditch, it’s Ron’s development that really needs the Quidditch. Oh, well….

Oh, and I too thought DD ooked like Gandalf, even though I never really saw a full LotR film, lol.

IMO, quidditch is more important story-wise for HBP than it is for OOTP (especially considering amount of things one can back into a movie). Getting rid of it in OOTP had little effect on the story (other than Ron’s development), however, if they get rid of it in HBP they would have to create new avenues of explaining a lot of stuff, whilst quidditch suffices a lot (g/h relationship, r/h relationship, malfoy being sneaky and gone all the time, snape being a big bad man, etc…)
