    I think Fleur is the only new character cast right. Cho is far too plain to be the distraction she's supposed to be, especially when Fleur and Emma Watson and the chick who plays Pansy are around. Krum looks too old and not ugly enough. I sure hope he has a good accent, or he isn't selling me on a damn thing. Cedric looks like a loser, I can't see him being the 'heartthrob' that Cho would rather be with than Harry freakin Potter.

    Moody and the BB headmistress look like shit, horrible casting and horrible looks.

    Fleur looks like a typical french girl because she is SUPPOSED to be a typical french girl. Her 'beauty' is caused by her part veela heritage and the fact that we see the books through a guys eyes, she's never described by anyone other than ron as literally physically gorgeous if I recall, and honestly... wtf does Ron know? The average french girl is still model material cmpared to 99% of females in any other country.

    I have no faith that even with the higher rating that they will go as far as they should, and really, this needed to be done in 2 parts, but WB are idiots with no respect for the source, anf Rowling isnt forcing them to, so oh well. I'll dl it, as always, but I'm not expecting it to be anything other than a entertaining waste of an opprotunity.So if I'm picking one, I guess stink, although I think as a childrens movie it will hold its own, taken on its own merits, just like PoA.

    I don't know if I will see GoF. It depends entirely on the amount of alcohol in my system when one of my friends mentions going to see it. If I am drunk enough I may just go to the theatre. Otherwise I will wait to see it via the internet.

    I wonder what the Death Eater masks are going to look like. It'd be pretty funny if they just used the mask out of Scream, lol. How poor would that be.

    the movie's got potential, yet my 6th sense tells me that all the cool parts we won't see. SURELY they will cencor the muggle torture at the worldcup, and i doubt we'll see voldy torture his followers at rebirth, nor will we see the unforgiveables by moody, besides moody looks like lockheart.

    Im not even gonna download it... iits gonna suck and ive sworn off the movies....

    ill check the casting for OoTP but i wont watch any of them after PoA .. it was horrid...

    unlike what sepanto says, the movie has NO potential so long as its rated PG-13... It has to be R to at least be decent... there are too many non-kiddie parts that wont fit the rating..

    I am seriously annoyed with the movie industry right now. They censor anything that someone might take offense to. Groups like Focus on the Family are ruining this country.

    I am thinking of sending Dumbledore's Office Orgy to all their leaders under a differant name.

    They will read it.


    And I will laugh.

    You can easily see the De's mask in the background. The cloaks look green though, and even so neither Voldie nor the DE's look scary

    Yes, but as the U.S. is a great deal of their market, they have to Americanize it, otherwise the MPAA or whatever would bump it to R, and I'd say a great deal of moronic parents won't even let their kids over 13 watch PG-13 alone.

    As for Voldie... :rrou:

    The Death Eaters look only marginally better than the "Dark Lord" himself.

    I have yet to see how there portaying voldemort, but i think this is gonna be the better of the movies... which isnt saying much. The only main problem i see with this movie is time, it will be horribly fast paced and hprribly cut, but you had to expect that. You cant have a 4 hour movie (though i wouldnt mind Ialso dont really mind not seeing wormtails hand being cut off. It's pointless gore that doesnt need to be added to change the drama of the scene, by just insinuating what will occur you get the job done just as good. Now moody does look bad. I mean he looks like a retired old fat guy not a retired grizzly looking auror. And the eye looks terrible. They got rita skeeter dead on, but moody.. ugh. Crouch look ok but now how i imagined him. Madame maxime looks horrendous. She looks like the bad witch in the the movie THE WITCHES. and the characters looks a bit too old. they should start changing it up already. Krum lookes like hes in his 20's. Also i wonder if sirius will be in this movie.

    All i hope for is a bit better acting i mean the last one was horrible.
    anyone remember the "HE WAS THERE FRIEND" scene and theyll know what im talking about.

    He looks like a bloody house-elf. Doesn't he have an uncanny resemblance to Dobby?

    i potrayed him more sinister and less rat-like and a bit more emphasis on the red eyes but i don't think he looks too bad. It's obvious the director based voldemort on how he looked on Quirrels head in the first movie.

    yes sadly they pretty much just took the head and turned it into a full face mask.

    I can't pull any ideas out atm that would make him better, but the way Voldie looks now is more like a stuck up aristocrat, instead of evil reborn monster

    I think he looks too human, he should have looked more snake-ish.

    Aye he just looks like a pale bald old man, instead of the blood red eyes (are they slited in canon can't remember atm, need sleep) and pointy teeth (maybe that's fanon *yawn*)

    Either way he looks like a man wearing depends. Ever seen the old vampie in Underworld, that's who the Voldemort in that pic reminds me off, a old frail man you're supposed to be afraid of, yet looks like a blast of wind would kill him.
