I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You're wearing an HP t-shirt to the movie? What a geek.

ita and Aims should totally swap shirts. That would be kind of hilarious, actually.

(I wouldn't even wear a Batman logo t-shirt to the comic-book expo last year, because I didn't want to seem like I was trying to hard. No, seriously, that was my thought process at the time. Don't ask me.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm wearing my HP shirt right now. Just back from theatre recon. Line still short.

Actors who might have been in Harry Potter. I think only McKellen has had a "better" experience than he would have if he'd taken the role.

I wonder which franchise was more fun--LotR or HP?

I wonder if any of the HP cast have matching tattoos.

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

Wait, I don't remember this part. She does?

It doesn't happen in the book. I think it's something JKR addressed in one of her interviews afterward.

Out with you and your grey canon. If it it's important, it should be in the books.

Blame it on JKR and the big backstory encyclopedia she's got in her head that she threatens to publish. If she says Neville will marry Hannah Abbott that's good enough for me.

Once she publishes it, then it's good.

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

Well, I never would have assumed that Hermione was permanently obliviating her parents anyway. Though I wouldn't have guessed about Neville and the largely offscreen Hannah.
