Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix (film)

[xo_kathy]

I haven't seen the movie and am not a huge fan or anything, but I just wanted to share a little something.

Poor Emma Watson showed her panties to all of America last night on Letterman. He little dress was up pretty high when she sat down (why don't stylists ever think about this when women go on talk shows) and she made the fatal mistake of switching the way her legs were crossed. At least she was wearing panties, though...

I saw when she switched her legs (I saw them move and looked down to see what she was doing) and I didn't see her panties at all.

I LOVED IT!!!! I saw it on IMAX, but I think I should've seen in on a regular screen first; it was irritating to keep cocking my head to see the other side of the screen. I also have quite a headache because of all the scenes where things were spinning. But other than that, it did annoy me how much stuff was missing, but I loved what was there, too. The special effects were awesome and one of my favorite parts was the end when Harry is possessed. Voldy not being able to stay in Harry's body definitely deviated from what we all know the real reason is, but I thought Daniel did an excellent job being possessed, it was very convincing (though he never goaded DD into trying to kill him like he was supposed to).

Well I saw a big white triangle glare out from under the gray dress - don't know what else it could have been...Maybe you didn't notice b/c you weren't looking in that area? (And yes, I realize that means I was looking right at her crotch, but I swear I'm not a pedophile - it was just the right timing!!!! )

I saw it last night, and I actually really liked it. Maybe it was a benefit for me that it's been a while since I last read the book, because I didn't get angry about things that were changed or missing. I thought the special effects were good, and I actually had tears in my eyes when that thing happened to Sirius. Maybe after I read book 7, I'll go back and refresh my memory on book 5.

Hmm...well, I was looking at her legs, more around the knee area, so it's possible that I missed it...but I can't see her wearing white underwear with that dress. Black or gray would definitely be safer, but then again, she's just a teenager, she might not know that...

Okay, thinking about this way too much. Back to the thread.

True...but I checked youtube and it's on there and people are mentioning it - so I'm not the only pervert who noticed...

I saw the movie today and for the most part I really liked it. Just a few pet peeves though...I'll leave spoiler space, just in case

1. I was disappointed that the howler was cut out. I loved that part of the book, but I understood why it was cut, I just wish it hadn't been.

2. Beyond annoyed with the whole Cho 'thing' and the DA. (highlight to read)That was so stupid that they had Cho out the DA, although MysticCat's reasoning does make sense

3. Siruis's death. Hated how it was written in the book (I expected something different, mainly because I read the books after movie #3 came out and Gary Oldman said in an interview that his character died in book 5, so I was expecting it, but more "grandiose"). Hated even more what happened in the movie. (highlight to read the following) Correct me if I'm wrong, wasn't Sirius fighting Voldemort in the book. What was up with Bellatrix doing the killing curse on him. That was beyond messed up. GRRR.

4. I was surprised that they didn't "show" Snape leaving Hogwarts and going "undercover" (whatever you want to call it) since that is HUGE in HBP. Him being undercover is the reason he agrees to the 'blood oath' (or whatever it was and I can't pull out HBP because it's back in some box in my gargage, otherwise I would. I should find it before Saturday).

Point #3: It is correct in the movie - that's how it was in the book as well.
Point #4: Snape doesn't go into hiding or undercover after the scene at the Ministry - that's part of the sixth book, so that's probably when we'll see it

Actually, the reference to it is at the end of Goblet of Fire. In the hospital wing, after Snape showed Fudge the Dark Mark and Snape and Sirius reluctantly shook hands, Dumbledore said "'Severus . . . you know what I must ask you to do. If you are ready . . . if you are prepared.' 'I am,' said Snape," and with a "good luck" from Dumbledore, he left. Then at Spinner's End, Snape explained his failure to respond immediately to the Dark Mark by telling Narcissa and Bellatrix, "By waiting two hours, just two hours, I ensured that I could remain at Hogwarts as a spy . . . ."

So he is undercover all through both OoP and HBP, but no mention of it is ever made in OoP.

And polarpi is right -- Bellatrix killed Sirius in the book. Voldemort didn't appear until after Harry chased Balltrix up to the atrium.
