    Im like jumping outta my skin right now! This is the best news in a loooooong time. So many pics today I dont know what to do! Anyway, does anyone think that the #’s on the shirts of the quidditch players mean that they are going to try out together? like in the book they were in groups, so im assuming those are what the #’s are for. lol and draco was just as hansome as eva! and i so agree with PJB, if you blow up the pic of slughorns potion class u will see that lav- lav looks so pissed of at hermione.lol! that is just hilarious, love it!

    Marjory, the picture you linked to looks like an “Order of the Phoenix” screenshot during the scene where Harry sees his father bullying Snape in Snape’s memory. It looks like the same clothes he was wearing, and the same expression on his face from that movie. I also believe the scene took place near the lake. Thanks for sharing, though. :)

    (Sorry if this double posts.)

    Nicci—I noticed a resemblance between Lavender and Hermione, too!

    To whoever pointed out Draco’s huge feet and scrawny ankles—that made me laugh! However, I’m sixteen years old, and most of my guy friends are at that stage right now; I have to say it’s unfortunately not that uncommon.

    Gargh, why is Dumbledore wearing the same grey nightgown as always? However, his hair and beard seem to be a lot more white than grey, which is a welcome improvement from the third and fourth and fifth films. Anyone else notice that?

    What’s the deal with Draco’s pointy toe shoes, they look about 2 or 3 inches longer than his feet?

    Or, perhaps it is an indication of subtler more hidden assets?

    I think the one with Ron might be at the Quidditch tryouts, that would explain the people behind him:)

    I laughed so hard at whoever made the comment about Draco’s huge feet and scrawny ankles, but I have to say, I’m sixteen, and most of my guy friends are at that stage right now. So it’s not that unusual, I guess!

    Dumbledore’s hair and beard looks great, but I’m still upset about his stupid dirty old grey nightgown.

    Those Quiddich Uniforms are horribly lame. I pray they get Cuarón back for Deathly Hallows, or else all may be lost.
