'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
I think the fact that Matthew Lewis has worn a dental appliance all the time he's played Neville helped disguise his incipient hottitude.
And a fat suit, and things behind his ears to make them stick out. On the Q&A panel after the HP7.2 screening, he said he only ever gets recognized at promotional events. (As opposed to Rupert Grint, who is a 6-foot tall redhead, and has attended the last three Glastonbury festivals wearing various animal heads so he won't be mobbed by drunken fans.)

Is he that tall? I thought he was wee!
I saw HP 7II last night in IMAX 3D. I was distracted by the format, and especially my glasses a lot of the time. (They kept steaming up.) I liked it a lot, but it all seemed to zoom by so fast. I think I will go see it again in 2D sometime, so I can properly absorb it.
Oh, wow. Dudley is a cutiehead!
My boss and her daughters went to the midnight showing opening night, so she wanted to talk about it today. I told her I hadn't seen it yet, but I was spoiled anyway, so go ahead. Then I had to explain what "spoiled" was.
And then -- I blame the antibiotics -- I asked her, "So was the movie pretty much 'Fuck yeah, Neville Longbottom!'?"
She just blinked and me, and I said, "Uh...sorry, I mean, 'Hell yeah, Neville Longbottom!' " And then she burst out laughing. Whew. And then confirmed that yes, it was Hell Yes Neville Longbottom.
Just got back from the movie (and yes, I wore my Hogwarts school blazer!), and it was pretty much everything I wanted. The only thing I really felt was missing was McGonnigal's big speech before the battle of Hogwarts.
Oh, and I tried to keep my eyes open during the spider attack. Ha, no. First shot of them scuttling up had me recoiling in my seat muttering "No fucking way".
I wanna go see it again.
I'm glad you didn't lose it over the specified scene. Did you see the HP movie that featured that character? The 2nd movie, I believe. That is probably more than you'd want to watch.

Oh, I watched the movie (Chamber of Secrets). I've just never seen those scenes. Someone warned me beforehand as to where I'd need to shut my eyes. Pete watched it, and let me know when I could open my eyes again. When we got the DVD, Pete watched it first, and then very specifically told me at what point I needed to hit the skip button twice. Because if I only hit skip once, I would be in the middle of the big spider-y discussion. No. No thank you.
Oh, they did? Awesome! I'm getting the dvd from Netflix, I hope that has it on it.
I watched the DVD from Netflix a few weeks ago and there were no extras on it.
