She has a neat way of showing you very important things throughout the series, masquerading as odd bits of detail.
very Joss-like. But, then, Joss let me down in season 7 (Eye of Bojoxa, I'm looking at you)
I got stupid. The money was too good.

I wish that Jo could have been standing over Steve Kloves and Michael Goldenburg's shoulders at times saying, "Nope. Gotta keep it. Gonna be important." I guess this is the problem with making the movies as the series is being written.
I was told (by someone here) that she does pretty much exactly that.

Well, she did do that for the OotP movie--the screenwriter and director were going to excise Kreacher from the storyline completely, and she said that they had to keep him in for reasons to be seen in Book 7, so they gave him those two brief scenes, as well as included, if you listen very carefully, Sirius' mom.

She says so in an interview that is a DVD extra for one of the movies (prob. 2 or 3).

Normally, I wait for the full back and forth commute, but damn. Fred? That just isn't right, he's one of the twins. The Percy reunion was the setup, it wasn't supposed to be Fred. Some other stuff happened to, whatever.
