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.

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

Ooooh, intriguing. (I hope it's not just the adventures of Albus Severus Hedwig Remus Nymphadora Fred Potter and pals. I'm not really interested in that. Not that I wouldn't read it.)

I hope it's an MMO

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's not a book. So it'll be something online, I guess.

Answering one of Consuela's old questions, JKR herself states: "Wizards can make themselves untraceable, which is why they can't be found simply by sending and following owls."

This might be why you can't conjure up food: "[Wizards need money because] there is legislation about what you can conjure and what you can't. Something that you conjure out of thin air will not last."

So you'd die of malnutrition if you ate magicked up food. Though "Accio Whopper" should work, no?

I'm not sure how effective the accio spell is in maintaining the integrity of whetver you've got flying at you but I'm guessing 'accio apple' might be a wee bit less messy.

BTW I'd like to know what principle of 'Defence Against the Dark Arts' Quirrell was demonstrating on that iguana. At least Barty Crouch used invertebrates.

Another tidbit, Fluffy (the three headed dog) is wandering the Forbidden Forest. Playing tag with the Ford Anglia, I hope.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Huh. Another question answered: "Avada kedavra "is an ancient spell in Aramaic, and it is the original of abracadabra, which means "let the thing be destroyed." Originally, it was used to cure illness and the "thing" was the illness, but I decided to make it the "thing" as in the person standing in front of me."

Another huh: Tonks was a Huffelpuff.

Speaking of American Gods casting issues, everybody had Scatman Crothers as their mental image of Mr. Nancy, right?
