FIRST REVIEW OF OOTP MOVIE!!!!!

[kileaiya]

So, if you did not know, there has been a review for OotP posted on TLC. Found here  There was an advanced screening in Chicago. So I, of course, asked the person who wrote it up about Remus. Here is my question, and his answer.  There is some other info as well.

I have a question for you. I am a very big Remus Lupin fan, did he have much screen

Aww, that sucks. I'm a Neville fangirl, and thus I will undoubtedly be satisfied with this movie. :) But Remus is my older man hubby, and the fact that he has no screen time sucks butt. A big hairy butt.

P.S.: If you ever wanna talk, I'm on AIM too. Contact info is friends-only viewable in my profile. :)

[kileaiya]

Yeah, it does quite suck. Poor Chris had to endure my virtual crying over this fact. Hehehe. I am excited for Neville and his MM though! I love Neville.

I added you to yahoo, as I am rarely on AIM.

[msmoocow]

And again, your icons are scarily appropriate for the situation. :P

And is it odd that after seeing the MM pic, I kind of want to know how it tastes?

Huh, I rarely use Yahoo. :) I'm only on Yahoo when I log into Trillian, actually. But feel free to say hi. :)

[kileaiya]

I have an icon for nearly every occasion! :P

Hehe, that is kind of odd... I bet it's bitter.

Okay! :D

Or, you know, complaining to Chris via IM.

Teehee...I'm complaing along beside ya, dolls.

So, I get a great Tonks, but practically no Remus. GAH, I'm torn!!

And no "discernable" R/T interaction? Well, the reviewer IS a bloke. A R/T fangirl needs to see it and let us know!

I just want Minerva and Umbitch's fight during Harry's Career Advise to be in it! I need a Umbitch slapdown!

[kileaiya]

Why are they so cruel, Chris? Why?! *sniff* Reeemus! Heeheehee.

Well, I am happy that Nat does a good job as Tonks. But I am at a loss as to how the cut of Remus from the Advance Guard scene will translate to HBP... Hmmm.

Ehehe, that would win.

1) That's completely unfair and he sucks.

2) Would you want to e-mail the guy again and ask him how the interaction between Ron and Hermione was? Was there any specific scene or anything that particularly stood out with them?

Please? Heh.

That sucks about Lupin. I didn't see him at all in the trailer which made my know he wouldn't be in it for long.

[msmoocow]

Via shocolate's journal, I saw that...

Ron and Hermione. Subtle and constant tension between the two. They are both becoming excellent actors and have played the scenes very well. The little gestures and looks between them connote their foreshadowed relationship very well. There you go, shippers.

That was taken from the comments made to that guy's review. I'm far too lazy to actually go through all thecomments and find it for myself, though. Sorry. :)

[cuteej4]

Thanks for that! I gotta friend shocolate because I always hear about her and read stuff.
I can't wait for the movie to come out.

I'm gonna friend you too :P

[kileaiya]

Yes it does suck about Remus. *cries*

I don’t have his email, but here is some questions asked of him and answered already.

Ron was, sadly, a minor part of the movie. This film centers on Harry and the DA as a whole. A theme of the movie is teamwork and that is exactly what we see. There is very little row amongst the students save for a scene between Seamus and Harry, but Ron comes to his aid and all is forgotten. Rupert is funny as always in few scenes, but, alas as you say nothing dramatic for him to sink his teeth into

[mariahgem]

Gah, that's dissappointing, but the real Remus/Tonks stuff isn't really until HBP, and it BETTER be in that movie.. *riots in the streets*

Also, fabulous song choice! WHOOOOO!

[kileaiya]

I wasn't expecting much in way of R/T interaction, really, but it is still disappointing. And it seems, from all the comments, that Remus has been cut from the Guard scene which likely means no "Don't call me Nymphadora, Remus" line... and I was really hoping for that.

I know! It totally better be in HBP or I will boycott.

AWOOOOOOO!

[isis_uf]

See, what sucks about this the MOST for me is that ... R/T is the only canon ship I sail... I've got 0 chance of any of my other ships getting screen time (unless they decide to give Harry's Sirius/Tonks speculation some evidence, but.. um... yeah, that's unlikely x 1,000,000)

On the other hand, YAY for great amounts of quality Sirius screen time, even if I know it's only there to make me cry like a flipping baby in a wet nappie by the end.

[kileaiya]

Yeah, I know. Hopefully, they will get R/T into HBP somehow or another and make it seem at least a smidge plausible. I will be really sad if it's not in there at all. I think it might be best if I just don't hope for it. :(

Yes! Yay for Sirius screen time. I so have to stock up on kleenex before I go, I will be a sniffling mess when he falls.

LOL. Janis, you seriously have no idea how much you crack me up and there is really nothing all that funny about your comment.

[isis_uf]

The funny thing is that I was totally serious (Sirius?). Um... yeah.
