| | | Arthur Weasley attacked by Fenrir Greyback in Half-Blood Prince?
We now have scans of the entire Half-Blood Prince feature in Movie Magic magazine, which we first told you about a couple days ago. All of the scans can now be seen here.
Of interest are an interview with Tom Felton and the mention of a plot diversion in the sixth film.
Tom talks about Draco's motivation and David Heyman points to the depths of the character that are explored in this movie.
There is also a Half-Blood Prince Encyclopaedia, in which a scene involving Arthur Weasley and Fenrir Greyback is described; Quote:
"...in his attempt to create 'an army of werewolves' Fenrir attacks Harry, but Harry or (someone unseen) petrifies him in time. But Ron’s Dad is not so lucky-Fenrir mauls his face and nearly kills him.”
This would appear to indicate that Ron's dad has been given Bill Weasley's fate in the movie - as we know both he and Fleur Delacour will NOT be in Half-Blood Prince.
Thanks to Harry/Ginny Studio Gallery and The Leaky Cauldron for the info! |

Elizabeth Peterson Diagon Alley | yeah, they shouldn 't change it just because they can't put a character in there. It changes the whole story line, unless Jo has got a way of working around it. I just want to see the movie so I can see how much stuff they've changed. Hopefully though, when it's all put together, it will run really smoothly. |

In the " Half-Blood Prince Encyclopaedia
in Movie Magic magazine. " it says " horace Slughorn hold sa shamefull secret-during his times as Potions Master it was he who revealed the darkest spells and horcruxes to young Tom Riddle"
HUH? He just talked about the horcrux right? And if you vould make several of them..
That about " Ron's Dad" could also be a mistake..weird. I hope they don't change it...I mean if you don't have a Bill, then you can better leave out the werewolf attach too... Quote:

I believe the production team made them then Evanna turned around and had some home-made ones which were better  so I'd hope she is, though she most likely isn't. Quote:
(Besides in PoA, but that guy was probably just an axtra) but it's just stupid. They are totally ruining themselves by not having either Bill or Fleur in HBP. What are they going to do now? Not have the wedding in DH? *rolls eyes*
No, an actor was cast. Richard Fish, I think. Bill & Fleur probably won't be in DH. If there's any wedding, I think it'll be Lupin & Tonks. Quote:
Guys, Leaky messed up. If you read all of the scans, you'll see that the segment of the article they are referring to more than likely discusses the book, not the film. Why? Because it mentions several characters we know to be cut from the Film: Marvolo, Morfin, and Scrimgeour.
Therefore it's very likely the writer of the article simply made a mistake when collecting info from the book. They confused Bill with Arthur when the grabbed it literally word-for-word from the HP Lexicon.
It's pretty easy to confuse the post about Greyback with the film, because it's posted in a film magazine, but I really believe they are talking about the book.
Hence the question mark. Those characters could still be name-checked without being present. It's more than just one character name that's been changed, the whole structure of the sentence is different ('dad') which implies it wasn't simply an issue of copy & pasting. Quote:
Horace Slughorn is an expert in horcruxes, and it is he who explains their principles to the students of Hogwarts....
That could be the case. They might be referring to the part where he explains to Riddle.

Okay, well then why does that entire segment discuss characters that we know are not in the movie: Scrimgeour, for instance? I truly believe that that segment of the article is discussing the book and the author got it wrong, which wouldn't be the first time for this magazine.
Sure, is it possible that Greyback attacks Arthur? Yes. Is it a big deal if it happens? No. I'm just suggesting that this may be one giant misunderstanding.

I don't think that should happen (the scene) but hey it might work for some reason so I'll just wait until I see the film

Totally omitting a scene is one thing, but changing it completely is just wrong. We don't need Arthur to be mauled by Fenrir just to have the point driven home that Fenrir is a murdering werewolf who kills just for enjoyment. Ah well, really nothing we can do about it, is there?

Boy do I agree with that ... I'd rather that the Greyback attack was left out of the movie if it wasn't Bill. The Bill-Fleur post-Greyback attack story was well done in the book and resolved the Molly-Fleur conflict. I don't see how having Mr. Weasley attacked yet again adds credibility to the story line.

Possibly but like I said it isn't a simple typo. The mistake was made twice-over, which is sort of unusual, in that it implies the writer knew what they were doing. I do believe Scrimgeour will be at least name-checked in the film.
As far as we're concerned, no-one knows for sure. Like I said, hence the '?'.

As happy as I am to have some HBP news, it breaks my heart that they feel the need to change the way things were written in the book just to 'make it work' for the film! |

I stil can't believe Bill and Fluer will not be in the movie. If they can't do it right don't do it.

Hmm, not having Bill in the movie was one thing, but giving his fate to someone else? =S
