Yea i noticed that. There was that tall skinny kid whos teeth looks....whatever.Yea i agree he does kinda look like Marcus Flint when i pictured him...kinda. biggrin.gif
lawks_fuster
no need to be confused mate!
that skinny guy was really worse!
actually at first i thought he was an extra!
and then i knew that he replaces goyle! oh c'mmon!
i really didn't expect that goyle would be replaced by a skinny guy! blink.gif
lawks_fuster
yup! i think they're different persons!
but after i've read dana_scully's reply, then now i knew!
thanks for the info dana_scully!
but to tell you honestly, at first i think that they were different persons!
anyways, everything's clear now! laugh.gif

They are the same actors. They looked way too old and boring in PS.
gryffin_hauz_88
I also noticed that one but I never thought Goyle wasn't there. I think I have to watch PoA again. As you've said, it could be Flint because we could tell if it was him by his... you know, bad front teeth... rolleyes.gif

I can't remember any other Slytherins who were mentioned in the book. I think we have to name all the Slytherin boys first. wink.gif
Ghost
Hey ashleigh07, I know what Harry was holding.






























































Enough suspence for you?
Anyway, he was holding the sneak-a-scope that in the book Ron gave him at the begining. If you watch the deleted seances Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in the great hall and Ron gave it to him, then they left the great hall and started up the stairs for the common room and Harry still had it in his hand.
Ghost
You never know with the Slytherin students, that could have been a girl. lol

I've watched PoA alot, alot, I mean alot, and theres a few close up sceans of him and he does have pretty bad teeth, so I think it is Flint.
ashleigh07
LOL wow you sure love that Enter key of yours!! wink.gif laugh.gif

Umm if you checked the date I created this thread, you'll see that it was quite awhile ago. I already know that it's a sneakascope...but thanks anyway!!

But not as bad as Flint... laugh.gif

And it's Flint, does Flint has really a bad set of teeth when he was described in the book? I better read that part...
Ghost
Yeah, it describes him with big crooked front teeth, or close to that I can't remember the exact wording.
lawks_fuster
okie!
i respect your opinion mate!
but i think hermione isn't a werewolf. coz' immitating a werewolf's howl
isn't a good sign of being a werewolf too! biggrin.gif
can you give me any theory so that you can convince me a bit? laugh.gif
no hard feelings okie! biggrin.gif
2lovealostone
That was very smart of you to think about it maybe idon't know Maybe I have to watch it again yay! biggrin.gif
Luke_57
nope she is definitely not a werewolf imho...she would have changed into one that night, as most of you have stated, with Lupin. and she DID look at the moon because she was first to see it..even wolfsbane potion cant STOP you from making the transformation, it just makes them completely traquill.
gryffin_hauz_88
I don't think so. Hermione never disappears suddenly except in PoA but it's because of the Time Turner. Hermione is just clever that's why she figured out Lupin's secrets.
Luke_57
i agree she isnt....but they dont think she is because she discovered lupin was one..they think she is because of the "Werewolf Call" scene in the PoA movie

This post was made by HarryIsVoldReborn in this thread here. But I've moved it here because it was a duplicate of this thread.

I dunno how it is in the books, I haven't researched it yet.. but in the movie The Prisoner of Azkaban the werewolf only responds to the call of its own... Hermione later calls to the werewolf to distract him away... weird.

What do y'all think? ohmy.gif

Hermione is not a werewolf. Like monerz said, she only howled in the movies, not the book. Seriously, a lot of people are making theories by what they see in the movies and not by what they read in the book, which, if you recall, is the resource of the movies.


so yeah this topic as been discussed at that basically sums our conclusions. I hope that helps
Azure
Okay, well maybe by 'the werewolf's own kind' it doesn't mean another werewolf but a relation. Maybe Lupin and Hermione are family.

(Yes, I know, I've tried pushing this in another thread on this very board. Just because my theory is largely felt to be ridiculous is no reason for me to abandon it though, right?)
Sofie
Are you sure that they are the same? ohmy.gif

James in SS looked like he was 45 years old...while in PoA...yummm rolleyes.gif he looked much more like James to me smile.gif

Lily, well...she had really nice face in SS. In PoA, i was rather watching James. smile.gif
Lynn
exactly! james totally looked like a nerd in SS, and in PoA.. well... he looked sweeter.. how d'you know for sure they're the same??
Jedi Master Doug Eric
This has been bugging me for quite some time now.
In CoS, the Whomping Willow is next to the castle, in PoA, the tree is not in the same location. Nor is Hagrid's hut. Is this a continuity error, or was it just changed because it was new director, new way of doing things?
Hermione_Resilda
I don't think the new director thought to look at where the Womping Willow was before.. It's probably an error; Alfanso wouldn't change where the Womping Willow was..or maybe he would, probably didn't think that anyone would think about this.
I'm one of those people who didn't think about it until now.. I thought it already was next to the castle.

i havent looked yet, but i'm sure the names are in the end credits. I'm quite sure, but i dont have themovie... sad.gif
bubotuber_pus
help guys!

Does anybody know why Cuaron made Snape much better in this movie? I mean, Snape didn't help the trio when they were attacked by the werewolf, because he was unconscious in the book... he also didn't suggest DD to warn Harry in the book, but he did it in the movie... I don't understand it... he was much worse in the book than in the movie.
Skillerz
you bloody moron, she just imitated the howl of a werewolf, and if she were a werewolf why prey tell did she not change when lupin did? and don't say she took the same potion lupin should have, it lets you keep your mind not your body at the ful moon. and if you want to say she's made an antidote to werewolf bites, sure it's possible, the odds are stacked 100000000000000:1 against, i mean sure shes smart but she ain't that smart, not in poa anyway, and if she had she would not be keeping it quiet, she would have sent it to the ministry, i mean come on she started a society to give house elfs rights she's not exactly in life just for herself is she?
Souljacker
Skillerz have a read of the rules.

Do not in any way create a hostile environment on this forum. This is the first and probably most important rule we have on vtm. This is a place for people to relax discuss Harry potter (and other things) and just get away from things.
Name calling will not be tolerated in any shape or form. If you want to disagree with someone then fine but there is absolutely no need to attack them personally!
Nimbus
hermione is not a warewolf. If she was, she would have turned into one when Lupin did. Remember, the wolfbane potion doesn't prevent you from turning into a warewolf it only allows you to keep your proper state of mind while you ARE a warewolf.

Plus that whole bit about only recognizing the call of their own kind was just added for teh movies. But then again, they may have been a bit of that forshadowing Rowling said Cauron picked up on without knowing it rolleyes.gif

[EDIT] Ok I just reread this forum and I see someone alrady said this >.<

littlexoxlotte
i don't think your theory makes any sence, and if hermione was a werewolf, the night lupin turned into a warewolf in POA she would have turned into one too
sHeRyL
oh i noticed draco has a new sidekick too. but i did see scenes where crabbe and goyle were in it too. the scene where they were in hogsmeade and harry through snow at them, it was just crabbe and the new guy. i dont know what happened to goyle. he's missing in action. tongue.gif
Mudblood_Princess!
Yeah, but there are also scenes when the skinny kid is with Goyle, Crabbe and Draco! Me and my sister call him Tweedy-Boy (it describes him perfectly!) He does NOTHING for Draco's street cred. at all!

He's a really lame substitution for Marcus Flint if that's who he's meant to be. He doesn't look anything like Flint in the second movie.

I think it's Nott, they talk about him in the sixth book. And his dad is a death eater with Lucius. i dunno, i could just be crazy, it happens all the time... rolleyes.gif
theodore_nott_fan
Okay, I have something to say about this. He is not playing as Flint!! I think he's supposed to be Theodore Nott as the actor's appearance fits the description. If it is Theo, I hate how they made him just another one of Draco's lackeys. Theo isn't!

By the way, the actor's name is Bronson Webb, and I think he's attractive for some reason, but that's just me, and I'm very odd.

I'm guessing that Lupin was in love with Lily as well, and that James found out about it... turned his back on his old friend, as did the other Marauders cause well, they didn't follow Lupin... they followed James from what we've seen. And Lupin would have been alone then, except for Lily... who never stopped caring about him, and saw the good in who he was


Wow doesn't that sound sort of familiar, except vice-versa? Well, it hasn't happened yet but it can be a clue of what's to come.. Here, let me explain the quote above into my own words, I just sort of filled in the blanks with other names wink.gif

"I'm guessing that Harry was in love with Hermione as well, and that Ron found out about it... turned his back on his old friend, as did the other people Harry knew. And Harry would have been alone then, except for Hermione... who never stopped caring about him, and saw the good in who he was"

As for Lily, there isn't much mentioning about her is there? And as for if Lupin had feeling for her... it surely was possible... maybe it will be explained more in the next book biggrin.gif Let's hope!

I'm actually guessing that the one on the right is Lavender Brown? The one in the back is Padma cause she has the blue ravenclaw patch on her robes, and the one up front in the middle is of course Parvati.

Yea I hated this too, I think of the original scenery, but I like the new Whomping Willow and the new fat lady, but in their original positions. Because in the first two, she was down a corridor, and in the books; But now she's on the staircase unsure.gif I hate the new scenery, where did that giant bridge come from, why didn't Columbus direct this??????? And did anyone notice the new look for flitwick, he's got like hilter hair, and a black mustache, I liked the original Flitwick!!!!
Tuitus
If I remember correctly, parts of the third and fourth movies are not just being filmed at the studios and a castle, but also in Scotland. The setting is no longer a template from the filmmakers, they're using parts of the real landscape too.
QUOTE

Yeah, I saw his new appearance. The black hair doesn't bother me, however his character is less noticeable in the sequels 2 and 3. And I wouldn't be surprised if they discarded his lesson about the summoning charm in GoF.
jessevanneo
Anyone?

Sorry, the description was:

Did Harry ever get his own wand back to conjure the patronus or was it hermionie's wand? How did the whole shrieking shack wand exchange take place? When they come out ofthe whomp. willow, sirius is still holding a wand and so is harry...

I wouldn't think that Harry could have used hermionie's wand as a patronus is really advancd magic...

Thanks
Nimbus
Well I don't think it actually shows Harry getting his wand back but it also doesn't show Sirius hoisting Ron on to his shoulders. Nevertheless, when they come out of the tunnel under the whomping willow, Rom is on Sirius' shoulder. My point is that there is obviously a window of time in the shack in which the movie does not show. I think it is safe for us to assume that Harry managed to pick up his wand, or get it back from whoever had it, in this time.
Fawcett
The link doesn't work anymore, is there a possibility that you can show another one, because I'm very interested on that. I knew on the film which one was Parvati because I looked up on sites, but I was confused about Padma and Lavendar because in the cast they're listed so they must be there.

I updated the link up top.

Padma actually is not a credited PoA character. Paravati is and Lavander is (This was my Lavander guess - might be wrong, but I have my reasons). Since Paravati is NAMED by Lupin as Paravati, there's little doubt about the identity of Sitara Shah (credited Paravati). Jennifer Smith (credited Lavander) is another story. She's the biggest mystery since boy or girl Blaise!

QUOTE (Potter1)

But all 3 circled girls seem to be of indian decent I doubt patil #3 (as I like to call her) is Lavander, if only because she looks Ilike the other two girls. We can't say Lavander's not Indian. but considering the names Rowling gave the Patils and Cho (names that were easy discriptors of their Asian heritage without a heavy description of their looks), I just doubt it.
Fawcett
Hmmm this is really frustrating. Well I always thought that the girl on the right was Lavendar and Parvati at the front. But there's as much chance as Lavendar being the other one, hmmmm......
felix_felicis_444
Its quite possible that they made an error, but the one that you think is Lavender most likely is. She is not of Indian decent in the books, and I do not think hey would make an error like that in the movies, either.....Its most likely just the lighting and shadows in th room they are standing in that causes her skin to look a bit darker....
Fawcett
Yeah it probably was her, because in the divination class scene they were sitting together. But I wonder who the other gryffindor girl was, because she seemed to hang around with them ALOT.

I just the DVD again, the girl that was thought to be Padma, can't be her, when it went close to her I saw her badge thing, it was Hufflepuff!

im really confussed. in GoF Padma and parvati are played by two non related actresses but arn't they meant to be identical?????
Scooby doo
u do have a point



MOD EDIT: Please read the PM I sent you, thanks
Potter1
I think that the girl in the way back is supposed to be Padma, the girl circled in white is of course Parvati, and I think that the one to the right of Harry is Lavender.

Has anyone noticed how the fact that Buckbeak and Werewolf Lupin were so well done that the budget seems to have been blown on them?

Because the're isn't actually a lot of magic going on. I mean, Expelliarmus really got to me- in GoF Harry and Voldemort duel and Harry's expelliarmus is definitely red- as it should be. In PoA, however, Expelliarmus produces a crappy spark in the hand and a random whistling noise which sounds everytime a spell is cast, which is really sucky.
Nimbus
I think I actually liked the expelliarmus incantation better in PoA then in any of the other movies. This probably had a lot to do with the fact that it actually does what it's supposed to do in PoA, unlike in GoF where it knocks the other person unconcious. Also, I really like the simplisity of the simple whistle and light spark the spell produces in PoA. I can't remember exactly how it is described in the books but I think Cauron did a nice job with it. Magic doesn't always have to be blinding lighting bolts, I mean for the AK that's fine but for something I like expelliarmus I much rather the simple approach smile.gif
