    LOVE the new one of Draco, and Ron’s expression is priceless “What the heck was I thinking????” LOL. Not in love with the new Quidditch gear, however, but oh, well. Who the heck are all the rest of the people behind him in what looks like Gryffindor Quidditich uniforms, too? Or are the other students now wearing Quidditch “jerseys” for team moral support like we do at football games, etc.?

    You know how they said the Inferi had too little skin stretched over too many bones? Draco Malfoy’s ‘do seems to consist of too little hair stretched over too much head. I think it’d look a little better if his hair was longer, but I have to say, I have NEVER seen Tom Felton look so much like Draco Malfoy. I’m really excited about him having a bigger role in this film, because his role was teeny-tiny in the 4th and 5th films, and pretty darn small in the third one, as well.

    Luna looks awesome, too! But it makes me laugh that Lav-Lav’s hair is fluffier than Hermione’s. Oh, and Matt Lewis is adorkable as always. _ I love him. I hope he gets a good role in this movie. It was a bit of an anticlimax when I read the 6th book and realized Neville didn’t do much in the book (despite being awesome in the previous installment.)

    I’ve just come across this picture on this site, I haven’t seen it before but don’t know if it’s new or not. It seems to be of Harry in a field with the lake in the background. Let me know what you all think! http://guides.clickthecity.com/movies/?p=2406

    you know what…all of those pics are great but I am sick and tired of Warner Brothers and the producers always changing everything!!Romilda Vane as a sixth year?Neville in NEWTS potions?Slughorn thin(well,kinda)and with no walrus moustache?Why??Have they ever tried to stick to the material?I mean how can they explain the fact that there are now two new students in the same year with Harry?The only thing that made me happy was that Harry is holding the Elder Wand in that pic…then again he shouldn’t be holding it!oh well.I hope this film turns out to be good and not a silly comedy with teenagers snogging.Mark my words fellow Potterfans,the way I see it,the DH films may as well be different beyond recognition and noone will have voiced their displeasure(so many details have changed now,that most elements of the DH plot will be impossible to preserve in the films).It is up to us,fans, to kindly point out that some things are just very different.I am a little disapppointed but still looking forward to this film.:)
