Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Punishingly Intricate

Like her becoming a nurse?

I think that was real. I feel like I read the book as everything past his real death was fictionalized but before that was real. It's been years though and I'd have to reread.

Well, I remember that in the interview at the end, she said that she had to get first-hand accounts of Dunkirk from people who were there, so I can see how that would have been fictionalized (i.e., even though it was pre-Robbie's death).

Okay. Making more sense now.

Deathly Hallows is going to be two movies, and David Yates is going to direct both parts.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ooh. I'm all for that. They were going to do that with Goblet of Fire initially.

Sweet! I'm in no hurry for it to be over.

There was just waaaay too much in DH for them to reduce it all down to one film. This way, they can leave in all of (whitefont for non-HP-book readers) the Horcrux hunt, the illfated trip to Godric's Hollow (which I think would have disappeared in a one-movie adaptation), and even the wedding in the beginning, which I still think is going to be Lupin/Tonks, not Bill/Fleur.

Sweet! I'm in no hurry for it to be over.

And that means that the block down the street will be doing a Harry Potter theme for Halloween for that much longer!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I agree with that, Kathy. OOH! Maybe I'll be pregnant when it comes out and I can go to opening night as pregnant Tonks!!
