    That's always been my absolute favorite drawing of Tonks.

    I'm reserving judgement on Natalia Tena until I see the actual movie. Honestly, I don't know why anyone would get too worked up about how they'll present her in the movies; look what they did to Fleur, her entire background as a veela was cut (presumably because they cut the mascot sequences during the World Cup scenes and didn't want to explain it later). I don't go in to any of the movies expecting exactly what I read in the books or even remotely what was in the book, the further along they go. After all, the longer the book, the more they have to cut.

    Tena certainly looked interesting in Nights At The Circus... ;) I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt.

    LOL, no kidding. Not only that but some of them married pretty damned young. Cygnus Black was only 13 when his first child, Bellatrix, was born (according to JKR's Black family tree), so how old was his wife? He was still a paltry 17 years old when Narcissa, the youngest of the Black sisters (as far as I can tell), was born. Suddenly Harry/Tonks is infintely more do-able, to say nothing of what the Harry/Black Sisters people out there are surely thinking.

    Most likely, that's a stunt double or stand-in. You don't have principal actors standing around, it costs too much money.

    The films have frakked up enough, with my biggest beef is Harry's hair. They can't even get that right. Plus with the whole replacing actors and such. i didn't bother watching GOF
