Heh. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 23/07/2010 10:16:48 PM
the only reason it is there is to keep Harry from the feast where everyone else is, making it possible (and plausible) for him to be first on the spot. Also, it gives some colour (hehe) of the ghost population.

I thought I had said that in my post as well (the first bit, not the colour bit). Guess I forgot to write down my thoughts. :P

I can't remember how much I hated him the first read Deadsy - 21/07/2010 03:44:15 AM 2146 Views
You're right. It's not as bad the second (or third) time around with him. StormCrow - 21/07/2010 01:54:01 PM 1955 Views

That last remark made me check out the names in the French translation... Legolas - 26/07/2010 05:18:36 PM 2093 Views

Thoughts on the movie quality Deadsy - 21/07/2010 04:15:20 AM 1742 Views
I always felt that the first two movies were the best, and the others bungled the atmosphere. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 21/07/2010 03:08:29 PM 1114 Views
I wonder if Rowling ever looks back and wishes she could change some stuff Dark Knight - 21/07/2010 06:44:41 PM 1878 Views
I think this book isn't as deep or as thoughtful as the first. Rebekah - 23/07/2010 11:36:17 PM 1883 Views
I feel the same way. aria - 24/07/2010 01:04:39 AM 1792 Views
