i cant believe that they are doing the werewolf attack on another weasley.... so Bill and Charlie dont exist at all... they were only mentioned in the first movies..

SnfflesLuvr 07-11-2008 02:08 AM

That really ticks me off! Grrrrrrrrrr........I must go sulk now........

Sabrina_Snape 07-11-2008 05:04 AM

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.

And there were some other things wrong in the article..like Moody having no house etc.
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...

Yes she did. She also helped make the lion hat she uses in Half-Blood Prince.

Evanna made the radish earrings? whoah! so now that they're creating replicas of them, is she getting royalties out of that? ;)

I believe the production team made them then Evanna turned around and had some home-made ones which were better :lol: so I'd hope she is, though she most likely isn't.

(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.

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.

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.

Ginevra 07-11-2008 12:19 PM

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

Mrs Felton 07-11-2008 02:19 PM

They should just have left the scene out..

*LYNN* 07-11-2008 06:14 PM

that is NOT fair...Arthur always gets attacked!!!
and its a crime to change plot like that and ignore Bill and Fleur...arggggh

Darkpsychosis722 07-11-2008 06:59 PM

Man I really wanted to see bill.

Kiki_Potter_103 07-11-2008 07:17 PM

i guess that's ok, i mean i hate that they take out bill and fleur =]

Patronus Charm 07-11-2008 08:23 PM

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?

northernsuburbs 07-11-2008 11:27 PM

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.

puffy 07-12-2008 12:09 PM

aaaawww,c'mon.stop changing stuff like that.

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 '?'.

Kristin 07-12-2008 03:36 PM

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! :(

Nat nat 07-12-2008 04:21 PM

Oh! pOOR Bill... His father got his role...

Raised Curtain 07-12-2008 04:22 PM

-frowns- They're changing so much of the movie... I'm unsure how good it'll be.

Mari of the Ocean 07-13-2008 03:15 AM

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.

I totally agree with this statement!!!!!! I would rather not see the scene at all if they are going to change the character that it happens to!!!!!!! Plus that is a VERY big change that will effect the plot line of DH!!!!

Eclipsed 07-24-2008 05:19 PM

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

Katieluff 07-24-2008 05:28 PM

Mhm. This kinda sucks. It should be Bill and it totally changes everything if it isn't.

Amira With a C 10-03-2008 03:24 AM

This is even more annoying then when they made Cho the snitch it OOTP. Argh! I still watch the movies and have all the ones out on dvd, but sometimes they just make me oh so sad.

horcrux7 08-30-2009 09:10 AM

What ?! I know that is Bill not Mr.Weasley
