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 realized I was burbling on like a loon.

I have a question for those who have read the books, and I'll ask in white-font in case I'm accidently stumbling into a spoiler: After re-watching The Tale of The Three Brothers I have a question about the "gifts" they received from Death. The wand we know was Dumbledore's and the Cloak of Invisibility is what Harry inherited from his father, but the stone is the one I'm wondering about. While I was watching the first movie over I convinced myself that the Sorcerer's Stone was the artifact, but then Dumbledore says he destroyed it. Did he really? Or is it some other thing that we've seen before but not realized the importance of? Or is it something that is found for the first time in the last movie? I don't need a detailed answer, just whether any of my guesses is near the mark.

Heartland is the movie that is being shot in DeKalb County, IL. (i.e., where I live.) Zac Efron has been spotted in the local Walgreen's.

But not by me.

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

If you do see him, be sure and count his nipples, mkay?

quester, the Resurrection Stone was the stone in the ring we saw in HBP, the Horcrux that Dumbledore destroyed before the beginning of the school year and the reason he was already dying from the poison it produced in him before Snape aimed that Avada Kedavra at him. It's not something we've seen before HBP, though .

Thanks, Kathy! That means it's out of play already? Or does it factor in the last movie somehow?

I haven't seen the last movie yet, but it does in fact reappear in the last bit of the book.

It does appear in the final film.

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

In the deleted scenes there is a beautiful montage of Hogwarts before the final confrontation.

The scene set to the choir singing? Yeah, that's gorgeous.

Quester, it's a little confusing because Dumbledore destroyed Marvolo Gaunt's ring - which was a horcrux - but did not destroy the gem set within the ring - which was one of the Hallows. So the Resurrection Stone survived the ring being destroyed. Voldemort didn't know the ring was one of the Hallows, only that it was important to the Gaunt family.
