well, based on these pics... i'll have to say f*** as well! i think the one thing i won't be able to stomach is everyone in normal clothes and not robes. what's the deal with that?? i could handle it if they were in muggle clothes not during classes and such but it appears there are no robes to be found! i was really looking forward to this movie (since Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book) but now i'm skeptical. Sirius and Lupin look totally different from what i pictured... let's hope it follows close to the storyline and maybe that will make up for any other problems we may have...

As odd as this may sound, I think they could have gotten Liam Neeson to play Sirius. At the beginning of Les Mis. (the movie) he has a very Sirius look about him, and he's such a talented actor...he could've done it.

I have to disagree, i think that half the magic is in the sets and costumes (the other half being in the acting). If you dress everyone (including extras) in normal clothes, you might as well just set it in a modern school! The whole point of Harry Potter is that there is another world that we are unaware of, so why not have characters that look like they're from another time? I respect your views, i just don't agree with them

gah! i can't just sit here waiting for someone to watch the trailer... it looks really good and my fears about no robes have been totally comforted because i saw the students wearing robes at some points. there's definitely some good shots in that trailer so everyone go watch it! definitely looks like its going to be a lot better than the other two... as long as the time-turner is handled well.

They played the trailer last week twice on our news here (two different channels). Some of the pictures in the beginning of the thread look like not all shots are wiuth them in custome (at least that is what I first thought) but the trailer does show them a lot in street clothes. I will wait until I see what this turns into. It looks like Hermione is wearing low-riders and that just isn't her. I don't mind a new director - but don't change the look of the cast. I'm hoping what some people have said isn't true. JK Rowling was really protective of the movies before - I hope she is with this one too.

I saw the trailer, and although it was too short to tell much, I wasn't that comforted. Lupin- a moustache? What's with dat? Perhaps this was intentional, but the Maniac!Sirius on the poster doesn't do much for me. Then again, I've never been a big fan of the Harry Potter Movies. Maybe it's just because I've never liked Emma Watson much from what I've seen on the movies/interviews etc. *Emma fans bash Chipalote over the head with Chamber of Secrets DVD*

Welcome to the 'Moot, Chipalote!
Yeah, the 'wanted' poster of Sirius was definitely weird. And from the other shots of Sirius, the poster didn't even look like the same guy.

Just to clear this up... all the shots of them in Muggle clothes are just because they're rehearsing. Dress rehearsals are only a small part of reahearsing.
I'm ready to cut this new guy a lot of slack, because Christopher Columbus wasn't any good.

But even in the trailer there are shots of them in Muggle clothes.

My guess about the singing is thus: Remember in the first book how they sing the 'Hogwarts School Song'? My guess is that they've replaced the somewhat lame words from the books with cooler ones.

Song
For those of you who or wondering, the song is from Shakespeare's "Macbeth".
Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Double, double toil and trouble-- Something wicked this way comes Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,— Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Something wicked this way comes. Chipalote |

Okay, I've watched the trailer now, thanks for the link!
![]() I agree with Elf Girl (has Halle Berry present her with the Obvious Statement of the Year Award) and Chipalote and all those who went, "What is with the ridiculous, blatant MacBeth rip-off singing!?" (Or something to that effect.) That sure wasn't in the book; I doubt J.K. Rowling would insert a quote from a play where witches represent all that is horrible and evil. My other question was, what happened to Snape when someone cast some random spell on him? I don't remember that from the book either, but it has been a while. Malfoy does look stupid, but he is Malfoy after all. I don't care what that little git looks like anyway. After the 5th book, I have no time to waste on that tool. Overall, it looks super cool! I absolutely loved the scene of the stopped train at the beginning. For those many of us who have read the book, it forbodes
Sirius looks cool too. I agree that Liam Neeson would have made a great Sirius, he is a brilliant actor. (Schindler's List!) But this guy does look like he'll fit the part well. (Shouldn't that scene in the cell which I assume is Azkaban have shown him curled up as Padfoot?) Hmm. Looks like it's time to go to class... Cheers for now! Count down to June 4, 2004!
